"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Flaking on a girl?

I've got a date with a girl this thursday. She's leaving for the summer in like 3 weeks. I told her I needed to see her before she goes, so that gives me plenty of time before she leaves. Bearing this in mind, I thought I'd play with it a bit since I've got time. That being said, is it cool to flake on a girl? Maybe she'd want you more for it? Or is it against the DJ code or something. I mean something simple like "Sorry I'm busy, can't make it. " and stuff.
 

"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.

it might backfire you know, and why would you play something like that...don't you hate it when women do that on you? (even if sometimes it's not on purpose)

Don't flake out on women man. That's weak. You should always leave a good lasting impression. What if this women happens to be the source to unlock a business opp in the future? or a potential FB?

Who knows?

I never give a second chance to anyone that flakes on me. When you commit to something, even if its just a date, you have to stay true to your word. Its the honourable way.
