"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.

I met this girl on myspace and we set up a date to meet this saturday. She emailed me thursday night and said she won't be able to make it because she'll be visiting her family for the easter. I said cool. We arranged to push it for today and she agreed. We planned to meet at 9pm. At 9, I was at the randezvous but she was not. waited for 10 minutes and called her. She told me she was sick the whole day which was why she was not able to make it. Do you all think this is a good sign? She disppointed me not once but twice in a roll.
 

"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.

So she didn't even bother to call you to say she couldn't make it? Time to move on to someone else.
She did not have my number then. She only sent an email. What really disturbed me was I had to leave a banquent I was earlier than normal simply to meet her. I think she played me. We haven't seen each other yet though.. I'm sure once she sees me, she'll find me interesting then I'll damp her for her actions.

I love it when AFC's make excuses for their oneitis's. A DJ wouldn't even ask what to do after getting flaked on. He would move on to one of the other 10 plates he has spinning instead of fretting over "the one".

"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.

So you think I should just let her go and never talk to her again? Don't you think that sounds a bit childish?

Questioning this advice is more than a bit childish, you need to read the DJ Bible a few more times.

I'm almost starting to think this post should be in the HS forum instead of this one.

Man I can't believe the questions some so-called "men" ask on here. SHE STOOD YOU UP MAN! You need to be slapped for asking if it's a good sign. Common... WTF.

Don't even bother with this selfish ***** anymore bro, she doesn't give a flying fvck about you, or she would have at least called and cancelled.

Apparently she did emailed prior to the appointed time. However, I did not receive the email until after the meeting time. I assumed everything was set. Plus I had to go to a banquet and planned to leave the banquet early to meet her so... yeah she sent an email but I just did not receive it on time to re-orient my plans.

1 strikes and she's out! B!tch:box:

Bro, bottom line is you tried twice and you have no date. Even if the first flake was legit (which I'm sure it wasn't) she would have lost any possible interest she might have had in you when you let her fvck you over the second time. PLEASE MOVE ON! :woo:

swampwiz, you better lighten up on dissin' the myspace honey's. I pulled an adorable little 23 y/o off there a few weeks ago that comes over for $ex once or twice a week, gives me a massage and lets herself out. Of course, there were 32 before her that did flake...............

In online dating, the male pirate is the one who is just lying about himself to get sex with a girl who is unconnected to his social circle, so he can easily get rid of her afterward.

The female pirate is the one who has no intention of ever meeting in real life, but pretends to so that she will get attention. This case sounds like one of those.
