"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Girl flaked out on me last night, did not call me when I was at a party with friends, where she was suppose to meet me. Should I call her on it because some think it is bad to.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Back rotation. Don't even mention it, and if you were going to, I tend to use this line:
"So, how awesome is your excuse?"

forget her. shes not worth ur time. dont bother with her anymore, but dont be a jerk towards her.

*if u happen to seee her in person, be like 'hey what happened the other night'
 

"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.

So how many more numbers did you get at this party cause she wasn't there??

Docs has a good response too, when a girl flakes I tend to simply drop her number from the list

Docs is more forgiving of disrespectful behavior than most of the guys on this forum. I haven't yet decided whether or not his strategy is wise, though.

It's just a flake if you were a really cool guy who was having fun partying and talking to other women.

Why would you care if she flakes?

You never really know which girl's will flake and why they flake. The thing about flaking is to cover all your bases before you actually close to lower your flake rate.

Are you doing qualification? (Very Important)
Are you guys vibing well?
Are you grounding your identity? (Letting her know who you are as a person)

These things alone can lower your flake rate. But overall you shouldn't even next so quick because you don't know what happens. I've kept girls #s for months and called them later on and they don't even remember me, but after getting them laughing and talking more and more they come out.

Basically think of it as if a high value guy was to telling a girl to meet up and she flakes. Would he even care? Most likely no cause he is a cool guy and has a life, just cause a girl flaked he isn't going to just next her so quick.
