When is a woman ready to move on to another guy?

P.s. Platonic friendships can turn into very special relationships, and lovely, beautiful ones at that!! It may just take a while for both sides to realise!!

And there is the absolutely best advice ... Don't give up. Each of us has our own ways and stories. You will have to make your own. And when you have found a Lady, proper suited in all ways for each other, ... It really IS worth what-ever grief and bother happened along the way.
Good luck, friend.

I agree, donĀ“t try to become friends first. That just means it will never get any further, and instead you will just have to hear them complain about their boyfriends.
Some girls are "in demand" and starting a relationship with them is a bit like a space shuttle launch. You just have a small window of a few weeks or so, from when they are over one guy before they end up in a relationship with the next. You just have to get the timing right I guess.

*They* say that you need a week to get over every month you were together. So after five weeks you should be over a five month relationship. Funny how it doesn't quite feel like that though!
I have to admit to telling someone that I wasn't ready for another relationship a couple of years ago. I think what it means is that although I liked being with him and was happy to go out on dates I didn't really want to be with *him*. Although it still took me another year after that before I really did feel ready to meet someone again, then stupidly went out with the first clown who asked me, and that all ended in tears!

Hmm, maybe what you need to do then Terran is expand your current group of associates and interests.

Meeting women is easy, they make up slightly more than half the worlds population.
If you want a woman who judges by looks you will tend to find them by juding by looks yourself.
If you really want to meet women treat them as people, talk to them how you feel comfortable speaking, dont try an act. If you find a woman who likes you and trust me its not hard, you will notice that things just start to develope without any extra effort to force things.
I've never chatted-up a woman in my life Ive just talked to people and although Ive been single sometimes being friends with peopole has meant Ive never been lonely.
one love

Ooh... Lots of good advice here already, but just wanted to add a few bits. Firstly, if the answers you are getting are reactions to a request for a date then yes, I'd say it's an excuse most of the time. It took me over a year to get over a six month relationship (proof that there's no rules. If you're in love you're in love.) but that didnt stop me going out for drinks with people individually or as a group.. But if I thought someone was wanting to get closer I'd let them know I wasnt interested in anything deeper.
Generally if someone makes a point of wanting to be your FRIEND it's because they like you but dont fancy you. If you hang around in the hopes that it'll develop you will probably be disappointed. If you suddenly discover you are in love with (or just fancy the hell out of)someone you've always seen as a friend then that's different. (And often complicated)
I assume you've considered this but in case you havent, how would you prefer women to respond if they aren't interested? A polite but slightly untrue gentle let-down is often the kinder (and in my opinion more cowardly but then I prefer being honest where I can... it's much more constructive!) option to just a straight out 'no, I dont like you like that'. A lo of people will respond with something that gets them out of it without causing anyone embarrassment.
How to pick the right woman? Stop looking! So much easier said than done but necessary... When you stop looking, when you relax, have fun and form relationships (of every type, depth and importance) with people, then people will pop up whom you connect with more and better, and by being yourself and relaxing they will be connecting to YOU not an act of what you think you should be. It's the only recipe for success in my book. It honestly will smack you in the face when it happens... If your mates start telling you you're talking about someone loads and you havent even noticed cos that person's just already a part of your mind then you're onto the start of something... but still, let it build and encourage things gently but dont charge in... we're like rabbits, we do startle easily and once we've said no out of surprise it can be difficult to go back!
