Can No-Strings-Attached Relationships Really Work?
Biggest Dating Mistakes Women Make
Blowing More Than His ... Mind
Confessions of a Former Mistress
Dating After Marriage
Is Dating Harder if You’re Smarter?
Dating Over Fifty-Five
I’m discussing my original point that you commented under. The logical extension of falling in love is advancing the relationship, because the woman feels the casual one is inadequate. I'm addressing the desired relationship. You are addressing the feelings.
You’re right, I was addressing the general female attitude. Nicely caught.
However, it maybe was lost in the other comments, but I did address your question of the two different types under my “important note”. How are we to know which of the “2 different types of women” a woman is when we just met? Especially if she agrees to be part of a casual relationship? Those feelings don’t exist yet.

Now that you've addressed the hyperbole, address the substance. If you are "more of a relationship type", why in the name of chicken and biscuits would you get involved with a guy that says, "I DON'T WANT A RELATIONSHIP"? If a man and woman agree to strictly a casual relationship and not to catch feelings, that's the agreement. (IMPORTANT NOTE: the two just met, and no one has caught feelings yet, so no one can say they are going after someone who is "more of a relationship type"). If feelings change, then the terms of the agreement are voided. This is not the fault of the other person. The appropriate action is for the person catching feelings is:
1. Say they are catching feelings, and say they can't continue a casual relationship.
2. Say they are catching feelings, and ask if they can advance their relationship. If not, then those are the breaks.
3. If those two options are unpalatable, stay in your lane and don't get involved in a casual relationship. And more importantly, don't blame your feelings on the other person.
