So I've been chatting to a woman online for a couple of weeks, we've both come out of LTRs a few months ago and we've really clicked. She started flirting, I'm interested so I reciprocated and she sent me risqué pics. Things progressed, we had arranged to go on a date and the flirting got heavier, and we had phone sex.

Then the next day I saw she had posted a FB status about being broken hearted, before I could ask she confessed that she had started a new relationship a few months ago, just after her LTR ended, had her heart broken just a few weeks ago, and that she thought she was ready to move on but she's realised she's not ready.

I've made it clear that calling it off was the right thing to do, I'm not looking for a rebound fling and it would have been a mistake to continue when she's not ready.

She's really down and I wish I could help but all I can really do is give her space and time to heal. She still chats to me online minus the flirting, still sends the occasional revealing pic, sometimes pics from her bed last thing at night or first thing in the morning, so I'm getting mixed signals. I feel like she's still interested and doesn't want me to lose interest in her.

Where do I go from here?

I don't think she is actually interested in you. She is keeping you on the back burner though, just in case. She is keeping you interested in her by sending these photos. Bin her off and find someone who is actually emotionally available and interested in you.
Also, are you 100% sure she's even single?

Yeah she's definitely single. Thanks for the advice.
