Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Got flaked on yesterday, and needless to say I was disappointed. I had thought she might be quality material but nope.

Anyway I usually give a flakes a second chance but really, I don't feel like it anymore. It just turns me off. I mean, sometimes you can play mind games and get laid after all, but no good relationship ever comes from flaking girls. Am I right?

Or is any of you happily married with a girl that flaked on you.
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

I remember once I had this date with this girl. The day before she texted me saying .. something came up.

I responded with "hmm. Interesting. I didn't realize I was dealing with one of those flaky girls. Take care."

She immediately called me and said, that she wasn't a flake..and started saying she was just kinda nervous or blah blah blah. I told her that's fine, I only want to date girls who want to actually meet. She then 180'd on me, and insisted we meet. Met up the next day. Date was ok. Never saw her again.

I've had success converting a girl who flaked on me into a series of fairly-good dates. Ultimately she lost interest, though (or maybe just faked it all along).

Oh god damn it!

If a woman shows up to the first date, you have a chance. If she flakes on the first date, she's got low interest and you failed. Part of my using the one strike rule is this flaking sh*t. She wouldn't flake out on Lebron James and you wouldn't flake on Kate Upton.

Don't give a flake a second chance. Doing so makes you a chaser or orbiter.

In my case, she basically asked *me* out while we were at a group function, but then flaked when I tried to take her up on it. Then we sort of no-contacted each other for a couple months, and when she came back around I mostly ignored her at first, and then finally succombed once she started coming onto me strong again. I asked her out again and she was more cooperative this time (sort of...for a while).

Kept getting really strong mixed signals all the way through. Told me things like, e.g., that I was the only one who understood her. A really confusing girl.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Thanks guys, this is what I thought.

Actually I totally forgot about this thread (as well as the girl).

Of course we have. But normally a "flake" won't come around with you showing them too much interest. You gotta have outside activities and be busy on your own. The "flake" might decide to be nozey and see what you have going on.

I put flaky girls in the "freezer" i.e. no contact at all after the flake (total radio silence, not a word) then I get back to them if I feel like it after many weeks, months.. Sometimes I got laid by doing that. If they are of the type "my way or the highway" then definitely they do not make material for relationships but some of them can make good slave material LOL.

Flaking is not necessarily always a sign that she is not interested. May be also the behavioral response of a person who is overwhelmed for a reason or another.

I've had two girls who flaked on me on the first date who I ended up banging BUT these two are the exception to the rule. The vast majority, if not almost all of the girls who flake on a first date are not interested in you, this is why they flake...duh...

Besides, once a girl flakes on a first date I never contact her again. If SHE contacts me and seems interested in meeting up, and she flaked with an ok excuse and with plenty of prior notice...ok, but I do not contact them after they flake. B-itches...

I've never flaked on a girl! and these women do it at least a couple of times a year!
