7 Signs a Woman is Wasting Your Time
Women, by nature, are manipulative,
which can be both seductive and brutal.
They are not direct in their needs, requests,
and communication, especially with us men.
This notion makes things a little bit complicated for us.
We me,n are mostly honest, straightforward, and direct.
A woman can show interest in you and give you attention
without truly meaning it, and it takes time until you understand that.
There are many women in relationships who are cheating.
They will never leave the man or admit they no longer want
a relationship with him,
but they will use him until they get the option that suits them best.
This is the brutal nature of female manipulation,
and you have to accept it as it is.
Here are the 7 Signs a Woman is Wasting Your Time:
1. She Doesn’t Want You, but Doesn’t Want Anyone Else to Have You
This behavior is purely manipulative
and stems from a need for validation rather than affection.
She wants the attention you give because it boosts her ego;
she doesn’t want you.
She will block you from moving on to someone new
by giving you just enough attention when she senses you pulling away,
yet she will never truly commit to you when you are close.
You are not her first option; you are like a toy she plays
with when she wants to.
She treats you like a backup option that she keeps on the shelf
“just in case,” ensuring she doesn’t lose her safety net
while she looks for what she actually wants.
Watch out for this sign because it does more damage to you
than you realize.
While all your attention and time are spent on her,
you don’t focus on yourself.
You invest in someone who will never be with you,
and you miss out on genuine relationships
that you could have formed.
Don’t play yourself; if she is not interested, just move on.
2. She Keeps Taking From You Even Though She Doesn’t Like You
You are her ATM.
A major red flag is when the relationship feels entirely transactional.
She consistently asks for free food, free rides,
and financial help from you, but offers no genuine affection, care,
or intimacy in return.
If you have a girl currently in your life who is doing that,
please leave her.
You are not a partner to her; you are a resource.
Believe me or not, girls don’t feel sorry for the man they are using,
and they don’t think, “Oh, I am using this man.”
They don’t. If the benefits you provide stopped today,
she would likely disappear tomorrow.
Open your eyes and be vigilant.
3. Your Instincts Are Screaming
Your intuition will never lie to you.
Trust your gut feelings because they are usually right.
Deep down, you know that she is not serious about you;
she is using you for a reason,
but you are choosing to ignore those red flags because you like her.
Don’t betray yourself and your future for some temporary pleasure.
You don’t want to drown in regret later after the truth is revealed.
If you feel anxious, unsure, or constantly confused
about where you stand,
it is your intuition telling you that something is wrong.
Women don’t hide their love from the guy they truly desire and want.
A woman who truly wants you will make you feel secure, not confused.
If you don’t sense that genuine affection and love in your interaction,
don’t take her seriously.
4. She Only Remembers You When She’s Bored or Broke
You are like a toy she plays with when she is bored,
then throws away when she is not.
Evaluate the timing of when she reaches out to you
because it is important.
Does she only call when her other plans fall through,
or when she needs something?
If you are just her “Plan B” for loneliness or a financial bailout,
you are not her priority.
The worst thing is that there is likely another man she stays
with who doesn’t pay for anything.
You are being used for financial reasons
while another man enjoys her company.
We are logical, and this math does not add up.
A woman who values you will make time for you
when she is busy and happy,
not just when she has nothing else to do.
5. She Has No Respect for Your Time or Effort
This is evident if she is always canceling plans at the last minute,
responding to your texts late, showing up late without an apology,
or never appreciating the things you do for her.
She views your time as disposable and your efforts as expected.
This is disrespectful to you as a man.
Only a person with low self-esteem will tolerate that.
Look at yourself in the mirror and start investing in yourself
rather than others.
If she cannot respect the energy you invest in her,
she does not respect you as a man.
It is that simple and clear: move on.
6. She’s Still Entertaining Other Guys
There is a clear difference between entertaining others
and just having normal interactions.
If she is still going out with other men, texting them,
or keeping her dating apps active,
chances are you are just one of the options rather than her choice.
She is giving hints and signs to other men that she is available.
When a woman is genuinely interested in building something with you,
she naturally loses interest in entertaining others.
This is crucial because you will invest so much in her,
and one day she will just leave you.
If she is still playing the field, she is looking for your replacement
while you are still there.
Please, don’t be the guy she uses.
7. She Says She’s Not Ready
Pay close attention to her words, but understand the subtext.
It is not about what she says;
it is about why and how she is saying it.
Remember that women will rarely say the truth directly to your face.
When a woman says she “isn’t ready for a relationship,” the phrase
“with you” is usually silent at the end of that sentence.
Yup, the real words are,
“I am not ready to be in a relationship with you.”
People make themselves ready for the people they truly desire.
If she is telling you she isn’t ready, believe her and move on,
because she is just trying to let you down gently
while wasting your time.
Time is important for us men; spend it learning a skill,
improving yourself, or traveling—just never on women
who don’t value you.
