I've had this happen a few times in day game where i'll be chatting to a girl, and when going for the close they'll say something about how they are not looking to date anyone right now or are not ready to date because they just had a recent break up etc.

Assuming the girl isn't just saying that to reject you, is there any good way of reframing that?

Example text that I got from a girl earlier from day game:

"Heya, as I said i'm going through a rough break up at the mo, so i'm not really ready for another relationship at the moment. But I wanted to say thanks so much for approaching me and being so sweet"... etc.

In these interactions, do you FEEL as though there is attraction and interest from her?

Well, assuming you're not looking to be in a long term relationship and going more for the casual hookup... it could be effective to make that somewhat clear to her. Sure, she doesn't want a relationship but maybe she could still be down for a hookup especially if she's fresh out of a relationship.

I would think you could still say something like "I'm not looking to jump into a long term relationship just yet. I'm just looking to meet a cool woman I have chemistry with. See where that takes things naturally." Could potentially add in some sort of of variation of sexual/flirting, maybe the "kinky sex and cuddles" line if it seems like it would be received well from her.

"Appreciate the honesty. But I'm definitely not looking to get into something serious so quick. Perhaps you got the wrong idea?"
