"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I always hear about these girls flaking out last minute on a date but it had never happened to me before. Mainly cuz i don't date much i guess. Anyways, happened to me today. Chick left a voicemail while i was on my way to pick her up. GRRR.

What are typical explainations for this? How can I avoid such an occurance from happening next time.

I nexted this girl immediately btw.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

if you want us to tell you what you did wrong, then you'd have to tell us all of which you did :)

It's also very probable that you did everything right, but she's just crazy

This is a pretty common occurance man. Let's assume you didn't make any errors between when you got her number and when you set up the date. The only real reason then is that she didn't know how to say no to you when you tried to get her number. She's a flirt and a high-interest faker. There was nothing there in the first place, so don't sweat it. Girls like that are usually rude enough to cancel at the last minute.

then forget about it, it's in the past now. tommorow is a new day, call another girl up, and if you don't have a number to call, go hunt for some numbers.

Forget about her, any number of things could have happened which had nothing to do with what you did or didn't do.

Maybe she had a better offer

Maybe she just changed her mind

Maybe she was talking about the date with a man-hating friend and you got ****blocked in absentia

There's a million other maybe's here and all you need to know is that she didn't turn up. If another date is to be set up then it is up to her, don't expend any more time or effort on this girl.
