Women that suddenly block or cancel dates

[Baibars]

it happened to me a few times.
A woman shows a lot of interest, we chat a bit and she agrees on a date.
I don’t give her a lot of attention and the date is set for the weekend.
Before the date happens she sends a goodbye text out of nowhere and blocks me or cancels the date.
I wonder if that is because some women just want more attention and they find someone else while we don’t talk or what could it be?

Understand there is a different level of interest needed to talk with someone via text that really forces her to put forth no effort to do so versus interest level to actually put forth a large effort like meeting in person for the first time.

Essentially she isn't interested enough to go thru the amount of effort it would take to meet you. She doesn't feel the return on her investment of doing hair, doing makeup, getting ready, driving to whereever you are meeting, spending the time she would be sacrificing that she could do other things or meet other people, etc is worth what you have to offer.

Essentially this is why this happens. You always find out about what people actually think when it comes time to act on it.

If this is happening continuously then either you are attempting to go for hotter women than you are and it's an attraction thing where she just isn't attracted enough to want to go thru all that effort or you are doing something leading up to the date that is lessening her wanting to actually meet you.

The primary reason for this is lower interest level. You also seem to be misjudging female interest in you.

One of the causes for this seems to be how you arrange your first dates. You are doing too much arranging behind electronic screens from what it sounds like. That limits how much she can be interested in you. Real interest isn't as easy to build from text messages or phone calls.

You could also be leaving too big of a gap in between the interaction and the day of the first date.

Don't set dates for weekends either on first dates. There are 7 nights in a week and first dates are fine for weeknights too.

If she wasn't initially attracted to you or initiating contact between dates, then her main intention was likely to flake on you. Also, if you ghost her between the time the date was set and the actual meeting, it will not only kill the anticipation, but she will assume you're no longer interested or have lost confidence. There is not a rule for it, you just have to find the happy medium between texting, initiating, and the length of the conversation to keep the expectations intact. She has to do the same as well. One of my current women I am seeing was sending me a countdown every morning before the first/second dates, something like '3 more days '.

It takes a lot of effort—making time, getting ready, commuting, dealing with stress, and managing anxiety—so for her to put all that in for someone she's not truly interested in, or someone who doesn't meet her needs or give her those tingles, it would be unlikely.

My guess is that you are misreading their interest level and are presuming they are more interested than what they are.
