"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.

When I arrange dates I always get in over my head, I say yes to easily and always flake some girls.

I can’t remember being flaked on, I only seem to get girls pissed off at me for flaking.

Anyone else?
 

"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.

Nope...a man is only as good as his word.

No. I don't flake. I always show up on time too, to the minute, and they either show up late or sometimes flake. Flaking on a girl sounds kinda feminine, it wouldn't work for me.

Nah
I'm an advocate of giving people a taste of their own medicine.
I'd imagine there are women out there that follow your lead and mirror your actions, so it's best not to put disrespectful thoughts into their heads.

If she´s not a sure lay and I have something better to do, yes, I´ll flake for sure.
