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.

I asked this girl on Tuesday if she wanted to go to a kickback on Friday with me and my friends. I'll called her up tonight (Thursday) to give her the details and see what kind of beer she wanted. She gave me some info about that, but then said "but I might not be able to go". Now we've been planning this for a while and it would suck big time if she couldnt go. I've really been looking forward to hanging out with her. What can I do to stop her from flaking on me tomorrow night? PLEASE RESPOND!
 

"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.

Put simply LaDanian Tomlinson,
You can't.

All you can do is show her how much fun she will have if she doesn't go. A woman is going to flake if she want's too. Just have too look at it as her loss.
But if she does flake on you, don't bring it up too her. Just mention how much fun you guys had that night.

Tell her "Ok,no biggie,this is your chance to hang out with the best guy to happen to you though". From there you hang up,if she wants you she will call back,they always do.

The thing is, if you try to get her not to flake you are going to be appear desperate and that is the last thing you want to appear.

Kill that Desperation by Pook
 

"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 posted this just now in another thread. Attempting to exert control over a situation that is in and of itself uncontrollable is a sign of weakness.

Some situations you can control, and others you simply have to react to. This is one you react to.
