If you were a woman, how would you recommend she phrase her request to slow down (note: she likes the guy)?
I always appreciate the direct, honest route.
I like you, but I feel things are moving pretty fast right now. Let's take things a bit slower for the moment. I am ok with X, but want to wait a bit for Y.

Yeah that is best but people don't always know to say those words and may say something else like "let's be friends" but mean slow down.
Anyways, I was just trying to provide another perspective to consider but if you guys want to argue against it, go for it.
"I can't remember" means I know, but you won't like the answer.
"We are separated" means person and their SO had a fight.
"Divorce is being finalized" means person is considering filing for divorce.
When a guy says:
"Maybe" he means no.
"My house is a mess" he means "there is a woman living in my house that I don't want you to know about"
"I have a lot going on at work this month" he means "I'm spooked, I don't want to see you any more than once a week for the foreseeable future.
When a woman says:
"Sometimes you talk too much" she means "shut up and take your pants off."
"I don't want to talk about that now" means "I don't want to talk about that ever"
"My mother wants grandchildren" she means "I want to have a baby."
"He is a committment phobe" - He is not that into me but we are sleeping together because he has not found the right girl yet and i am putting up with it because I don't have anyone else either.
"He wants to move things slow" - This is just a sexual thing between us, no hopes for a relationship.
"He just got out of a long term relationship" - He wants to sleep around with as many woman as possible, until in the distance future he will meet the one.
"I like him as a friend" - No way in hell that guy is for me.
Here is from men:
"Let's do something next week (without a date being specified)" - "Only if I do not have anyone better, i will contact you last minute"
"I want to travel and see the world" - I am in no mood for a serious relationship, marriage, kids.
"She is needy" - "I do not like her that much, it is just sex, but I led her on, so she keeps calling me and asking to hang out, I need to break it off before she expects a relationship".
