    You'll just end up taking the advice you find the most flattering. The only reason you can't recognize the truths you've heard is because they threaten your ego - and, like most men (and most women as I've learned from experience), your ego is your biggest liability.

    I gave you the correct advice. finalsbound gave you the correct advice.

    I need to stop posting in these threads. I'm Obi-Wan, but none of y'all are Luke Skywalkers.

    Alright, I give up - but not before I point out that what doesn't know what the **** he's talking about.

    Go online and join a dating site. Take photos from your best angles. Lie..or..stretch the truth about yourself and what you do for a living and how much money you make. Make yourself seem interesting like you skydive once a month or some BS.

    No more dealing with BS of asking girls on dates, they come to you.

    Smash.

    On to the next one.

    what advice have i given him that you think is wrong? the only thing you and i seem to disagree on is that she likes him. i would say that she's not interested in him because he's did the exact opposite of what you and i think he should have done.

    oh yea, we also disagreed on that whole "girls don't give out their number to guys they're aren't interested in" thing.

    i just think that you think she is playing games with him but how many times have you yourself said something and then backed out of it. it is human nature. doesn't mean she doesn't like him. newsflash: going out on a date is scary for girls too. and they change their mind often. my only point is to give the girl the benefit of the doubt before you rush off and call her an attention-*****.

    this is my main point: girls don't go through all of this effort if they don't like a guy. you know how many times they get hit on a day? the fact that he got her number and agreed to a date is half the battle. i almost expect a girl to cancel a date a few times. i don't even phase it. i just make myself a little less available and that generally works.

    a lot of great woman out there, mac. :grin:

    She's either really busy or playing games with you. Find something to do in advance, and invite her 2 days ahead.

    Tell her, "I got this on Friday at blah blah around 9 sharp. You interested in some fun after all that work?"

    If she turns you down, then the ball is in her court and you move on.

    She can either like you for being honest or play you like a b**** and string you along.

    If you see her a lot, like at work, then NO GAMES. Play it cool if she shoots you down. Message received. If she wants to bite, she'll bite. If you think she's worth it, then prepared to get a little bruised.

    Furthermore, if you're interested, just call her. It shows that you're a man. ;)

    I'll also say this that I am a fan of explaining everything to a girl in advance. Despite the myth that girls like surprises, for a first date, you should tell her what restaurant you want to take her to, if you will have an activity afterward, asking her if she would like to be picked up or if she feels more comfortable meeting you at the restaurant.

    I'm also a fan of asking her point blank if we are still on, rather than acting as if it were so because she gave you the okay 2 days before. Things might have changed, and while some people my say you are giving her a way out of the date: i look at it as respecting the fact that she might have had something come up.

    btw, you should phrase it just like this: are we still on for our date? and not like this: okay, i'm going to pick you up tomorrow at 8:00, or any iteration of such stuff. the worst thing you can do is assume. YOU think it displays confidence. THE GIRL knows it is the mark of a desperate guy. the confident statemenet surprisingly is: are we still on. go figure.

    anyway just random facts.

    ^This.

    Don't be wishy washy. Take charge with time and location on the first date. That removes doubt on her mind about whether your breath stinks or what her horoscope said.

    Be confident...as if you're going there no matter what she says. Make her need you instead of you clearing up your schedule for her.

    Sometimes women don't really know what they want. In this case that OP posted, it is OBVIOUS that the girl is not interested. If the girl is interested, she will make every effort to set up the date, and offer to reschedule at a much earlier date.

    Macula and Kyle R are dead on. CaseyH has valid points. Other posters....I'm not sure.

    Do NOT ever let women give you advice over how to get other women. This is the worst piece of advice you will ever receive. Women often don't know what gets them attracted to a particular guy. They always say they are looking for somebody that is nice, smart, caring, blah blah, then turn around and date the jerk.

    Sleep on it. Call her tomorrow night and ask her to get together this weekend. Yes, actually call and actually leave a message. It's not that hard.

    Texting is a convenient thing but a good old fashioned phone call means so much more
