| Love Couple |
I have seen this play out several times, and I have a good friend who is just masterful at this and who brought it into sharp focus. She's an attractive girl and she works on a trading desk, so she's legitimately busy and has painfully early mornings.
From time to time, she just doesn't feel like going on the date she has scheduled. The guy isn't that interesting to her, or another social event popped up, whatever... So she'll flake at the last minute, but she'll offer her profuse apologies.
Sometimes these are interlaced with statements meant to inspire sympathy ("I slept like 2 hours last night, I'm barely functioning, I hate my job"), but in almost all cases, she attempts to lock the guy into rescheduling right there on the phone by telling him how excited she is to see him and how "seriously," she can't wait to hang out because they're going to have such a good time.
