"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.

When would you flake?

There's a girl you find hot. You have a first date set up. Would you flake if you:

1. Got ill. I don't mean something serious, just a bad cold or something.

2. Something else came up that you 'had' to attend - going away party, etc.

3. Were hungover from the night before.

4. Didn't feel like going out because you were in a bad mood.

etc, etc.

I'm guessing guys wouldn't flake for any of these reasons right? I don't think I would.
 

"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.

Except from 2. I would flake for the other reasons, (as I already did). You want to be at your best in a date...

The only reason I wouldn't attend a date is if I was ill. I'm not the best company when I'm ill, so I wouldn't want to ruin a date and waste time and money by going through with it. Otherwise if I've set up a date I'll attend.

I would attend unless the going away party was thrown by someone important.

I've flakes for all the reasons you've stated. I've also flaked to watch the match with mates, and probably flaked to eat pizza with the lads on more than one occasion.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

If I think i'm not going to enjoy myself i'll flake every time. I try to be as objective and fair as I can because I have a tendency to not want to leave my house. But if i'm sick, on a budget, bad mood, or whatever i'll flake. I have to honestly ask myself if I reeeeeeeeely think i'll enjoy the night. Then i'll go. It was to be like that with me because if i'm not into being out then I usually feel it was a waste of fundage..
