"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

If a girl gives her number to you, is she interested?

I'm starting to wonder. It seems like a lot of guys here getting the number are getting flaked big time.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Numbers are wood. Its what you do before you get the number thats important. She needs to know a few things before she even thinks of going on a date with you. 1) you are SAFE and not some psycho killer (lots of Rapport) 2) Fun and not boring 3) Have things in common (rapport again).

Well women love attention. Guys calling them makes them happy. So trd323 is right, it's what you did leading up to getting her number that determines if she was showing an indicator of interest or not.

I've gotten girls' numbers in less than one minute time. They don't always turn into dates but that doesn't mean that there is a secret formula for determining whether or not you can actually "get" something out of it.

All a number is is an invitation. Sometimes not even that. There was SOMETHING in most encounters that lead to her giving you her number. It could be looks, your vibe, your style, your confidence, whatever. Sometimes it's purely for her own ego, to toy with you, for fun. It is possible for a girl who doesn't respect you to give you her number. It's how you handle it that determines whether or not this girl is going to feel you.

Sometimes there's nothing you can do to prevent flaking. That's not your fault though, other than not reading the dynamic better... But that's just the cost of doing business!

Either accept the fact that flaking/disrespectful/rude/annoying/etc. crap is going to happen or leave the drudgery to guys like me who have the skin thick enough to actually close.
