Preventing Flakes 101
It is really cool when you start getting girls phone numbers regularly and easily. Unfortunately this is usually accompanied by the realization that, although you got her phone number it is next to impossible to get her to pick up the phone or respond to the voice mails that you are leaving her, in other words she is flaking on you.
If ever that happens, don’t take it personally! There are a ton of reasons why a girl might be interested one day and not the other. Instead, concentrate on getting more numbers.
That said, here are the best ways to prevent flaking:
What to Do:
- Get her to qualify herself during the interaction with you (i.e. One of the most important things for me in all of my relationships is honesty, what about you?)
- Get her to commit to seeing you again (i.e. So, when are you free? Okay so I will give you a call on Friday in the afternoon to set something up with you).
- Show her that you are not attached to meeting up with her (i.e. So, between 1 and 10 how interested are you in meeting up with me again? Only 8? I don’t think it’s going to work out because I am only interested in going out with girls who are really interested.)
