She&#8217;s young, and just out of a relationship. <strong>TRANSLATION<\/strong>: She&#8217;s a walking bag of cRaZy just waiting to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Occasionally I will text her and do the &#8220;flirt&#8221; thing with her. All last week she was all a-glow with attraction. I figured it was time to get together with her again and finish what we&#8217;d started the week before.<\/p>\n<p>So I sent her a message on Thursday night that said simply &#8220;Let&#8217;s get together tomorrow night after you&#8217;re done at work&#8230;&#8221; I needed to find out if she was available or not so I could plan things out for the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Her response came back, &#8220;Sounds like fun! See you &#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, that was less than her flirtatious self, which led me to think &#8220;She&#8217;s going to flake.&#8221; I can sense an impeding flake with about a 95% accuracy these days.<\/p>\n<p>Sure enough, she did.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I&#8217;ve been in this game for a <strong>LONG <\/strong>time, and it didn&#8217;t phase me, and I knew that any reaction was a<strong> BAD<\/strong> reaction.<\/p>\n<p>But for the first time, I had an epiphany as to <strong>WHY<\/strong> it is that women need to see <strong>NO<\/strong> reaction from you on this kind of behavior.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s like this: We all know that to &#8216;call her on her shit&#8217; is a bad, bad, bad way to handle flaking. You send the message that you&#8217;re an inflexible dork who will NOT be fun. Sometimes, when a guy is just getting his self-dignity and self-respect up to Alpha Man level, he thinks that he needs to &#8216;set her straight&#8217; or &#8216;let her know where he stands.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Usually, this is not good. Especially for most younger women who are (as I like to say) flakier than day-old croissants.<\/p>\n<p>But consider what she really interprets from your reaction:<\/p>\n<p>If you react to her flaking with anything more than an &#8220;I didn&#8217;t even notice you flaked&#8221; reaction, than you are telling her:<\/p>\n<p>A) You lack emotional maturity, since you can&#8217;t handle disappointment or changes in your rigid, structured little life. <strong>TRANSLATION:<\/strong> You&#8217;re about as fun as a stick in the eye.<\/p>\n<p>B) You must not go through this experience of being flaked on very much or you would have figured it out by now. What, this is the first time you&#8217;ve been flaked on? Get over it. <strong>TRANSLATION<\/strong>: You&#8217;re a loser.<\/p>\n<p>C) If you<strong> HAVE<\/strong> been flaked on before and<strong> STILL<\/strong> react this way, it tells her that insecure anger is where you react from, and she knows what <strong>THAT <\/strong>means about you. (I don&#8217;t need to translate this one, do I?)<\/p>\n<p>After all, what kind of guy isn&#8217;t even phased by a woman flaking on him?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ANSWER:<\/strong> A man who has other options in his life.<\/p>\n<p>Guys, until she&#8217;s begging you to be her one-and-only, there is NO woman that is <strong>THAT <\/strong>big of a concern to you. If she is, you&#8217;ve lost focus and perspective.<br \/>\nA man will only make a woman this important to him when his own life lacks direction, power, and fun. She&#8217;s not here to give you a purpose. She&#8217;s here to support and go where you&#8217;re already headed.<\/p>\n<p>Some guys incorrectly assume that women need to understand that you are the type of guy that no woman would <strong>DARE <\/strong>flake on because he&#8217;s so &#8220;high value.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Or they think &#8220;If I let her get away with this, I&#8217;ll be communicating my lack of value or low social status&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sorry, dude. Dead <strong>WRONG<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>She knows that <strong>EVERY <\/strong>girl on the planet has flaked on a guy, and <strong>EVERY<\/strong> guy in the world has been flaked on. It&#8217;s like when you woke up this morning with wood. It&#8217;s a fact of life.<\/p>\n<p>If a woman flakes constantly<strong> AFTER<\/strong> you&#8217;ve had a chance to demonstrate your Alpha Bad-ass self, then you&#8217;ve got only one problem to consider: Stable, sane women do<strong> NOT<\/strong> flake on men they genuinely <strong>WANT<\/strong> to see again.<\/p>\n<p>So if she continues to flake &#8230; that&#8217;s not the problem. What you need to know is, why didn&#8217;t she want to experience you again?<\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s my approach:<\/p>\n<p>1) Recognize that it&#8217;s in a woman&#8217;s nature to flake. It&#8217;s not personal, so again, get over it.<\/p>\n<p>Rain gets you wet. Dogs bark. Women flake.<\/p>\n<p>Getting angry about this is neurotic and pointless. Accept it and move on.<\/p>\n<p>2) Always stack your possibilities. If one falls through, you can&#8217;t be wasting time getting indignant and angry over something that really doesn&#8217;t impact you. It&#8217;s a typical newbie mistake to load up far too much meaning on any particular incident of flake-age, and that&#8217;s why they tend to keep asking this question about &#8220;what do I do when she flakes?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>YOU DON&#8217;T CARE<\/strong>, that&#8217;s what you do.<\/p>\n<p>3) Never let a woman think you will be anything less than FUN. Her fun is more important initially to her than any belief in your &#8216;value.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the amount of fun you give her is &#8211; to a large degree &#8211; what she equates as your &#8216;value.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Read that again.<\/p>\n<p>And never forget this fact. <strong>EVER.<\/strong> Fun for women is one of the most overlooked aspects of building at traction with women, and one of the most under-developed abilities in most men. (I&#8217;ll cover this in the future in more detail&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>From now on, repeat after me: &#8220;She flaked? Wow, I didn&#8217;t even notice&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>PS: I just got a text from that girl in the course of writing this article. She apologized and is back to asking about a second chance. Do you think this would have happened if I&#8217;d shown any reaction to her flake? Uh, not likely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SHE FLAKED?<\/p>\n<p>I had an &#8220;a-ha!&#8221; moment the other day that I thought I would share with you guys.<\/p>\n<p>I recently have been enjoying the company of a few women, and I was lining up one to see again on Friday night.
