Those women who don't want serious relationships but for some reason seem genuinely interested in you and your love-giving capabilities.

These women will express interest in you, date you, love you, and then confess that they "aren't looking for anything serious right now". These women will then go to bars, meeting more guys, flirting and having fun with them, not you, and your stomach hurts. You beat yourself up over things you think you did wrong, because you're so in love still that they can't possibly be flawed like this. But alas, their main goal is penis and validation, just like the slut. But they are not sluts, for sluts are more obvious in their adventures, instead Floaters are more diplomatic and usually completely oblivious to your pain. I call them Floaters because their goal is to forever float upon a cushion of "those beginning flirtatious amazing days", never staying long enough to give it a chance to turn sour, regardless whether it would have or not. They thrive upon being that girl that every guy wants and loves. They do not love you. Maybe they did, and that's when they realized they had to escape because the beginning days are over and a commitment is looming.

Floating is a terrible epidemic, and you're not the only one who has experienced this. And, yes, women aren't the only ones who can float, but due to the intensity and commonness of the love that men feel towards that one girl they almost had, it's largely women that commit the float.
Dude: Man, I don't know what I did wrong, I gave it my best and she's ignoring me and I see her facebook posts saying she's going out to bars and I know guys are hitting on her because have you /seen/ her, man?

Man: Dude, she's a floater, she doesn't give a crap. She's probably floated 15 other guys before you.

Dude: Yeah, you're probably right. Good thing Pornhub has unlimited video plays on Valentine's Day.
