- She keeps finding reasons to avoid going out with you: if a woman likes you, she will make sure she sees you, pronto. Life happens, and something happening a time or two is believable. However, if it happens for weeks on end, she is just not interested, but doesn't have the heart or the balls to tell you so.

- She dry texts: one word/sentence answers, not replying for eight hours but is clearly online, never asking you questions etc. If a woman wants to get to know you, she will. It's as simple as that. Again, she is engaging you either out of boredom or pity, maybe both, but ultimately she ain't interested.

- She disrespects you but disguises it as teasing: if a woman is into you, she'll never go out of her way to belittle you, mock you or disrespect you. "Are you sure you can handle this?" and "I know you can't handle this" are two completely different things. Teasing is ok, mind fucking is not.

- She never teases you sexually: if you're texting or going out with a woman that NEVER does or says anything provocative to test the grounds, she is not into you. Shy girls do exist but guess what - you know from the get-go that they're shy. Women want you to fantasize, but if this isn't happening, she don't care.

- She never initiates anything: if a woman never initiates the idea of meeting up, hooking up, video call, a good topic for a conversation, sexting, opening up to each other, physical touch, anything at all, then she doesn't care. If a woman wants you but you're playing hard to get, she won't take no for an answer so easily. Indifference is the kiss of death.

- She plays mind games: a bitch to you one minute, nice the next. Shows interest and communicates openly one minute, gets dry the next. Starts teasing one minute, plays an angel the next etc. These are things that an adult does not do, because adults don't have time for this bullshit. If a woman is really into you, 80 percent of the time she'll be concise, direct and honest, and will play with her cards revealed.

- She postpones/prolongs every part of your relationship: don't buy into this modern narrative that women are indecisive creatures - they're not. In fact, they're very smart and calculated, rightfully so. One date is all a woman needs to make a final judgment on you, as in will she fuck you or will you fuck off. If she is truly into you, you'll never hear the words "we're moving too fast" or "I'm not ready for this now". If she wasn't ready, she wouldn't go out at all. That simple.

It's not rocket science, my dudes. If a woman likes you, she will:

- text openly, covering many topics and always showing interest

- never ghost, via text or person

- initiate meet-ups first, or at least subtly plant the idea in your head

- apologize when she does you wrong or says something beyond insulting

- earnestly express her intentions

- tease and keep the mind games either minimal but fun or nonexistent

- compliment you and touch you

- desire to be close to you, physically and mentally
