She called at the last hour and flaked on me. She said she wanted to spend the 1st with her family.
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.
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.
IMHO, do not take it that harsh, it is actually okay, and rather normal to spend theese days with your family 31st/1stescaleraroyal said:She called at the last hour and flaked on me. She said she wanted to spend the 1st with her family.
While some people do spend NYE with family, girls in college or post-grad (young adults) are looking to go out instead of stay in. The timing of her call is fishy too - waiting until the last hour? I'm not saying this is 100% a flake, but I feel it is. It falls in line with how a lot of flake situations work. The fact she waited until the last hour is not respectful - you're left out in the cold because it's so close to when the ball drops.European-DJ said:IMHO, do not take it that harsh, it is actually okay, and rather normal to spend theese days with your family 31st/1st

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I do not know what i am missing out on?Strelok said:Age of the girl? no really if she's not 14 or 15, it's very rare what euro-dj suggested.
Family means nothing in America. At 18 they kick you out! To be a momma's boy in America is an insult! In most countries EVERY man is proud to be one!European-DJ said:I do not know what i am missing out on?
But is it not normal anymore to hang out with family on new years eve, and new year day??
In my Place this is the only REAL Family day, and christmas ofc.
We are celebrating like that, being a christian greek orthodox is something i am rather proud of. But We shouldn't discuss religion.BigJimbo said:Family means nothing in America. At 18 they kick you out! To be a momma's boy in America is an insult! In most countries EVERY man is proud to be one!
In the former Soviet Union it is like Christmas. Christmas is the 7th of January and religious in nature. The 31 is like Christmas Eve. Gift exchanging. Very much a family time. Muslims celebrate it as well. You have a tree and everything else. Then Santa brings the kids stuff at night for New Year's morning. What is the point? The point is that if you knew this you would have yourself a beautiful young gf :yes:
