Flora loves taking the sting out of a no‑show and turning it into a story you are glad happened. Signature moves include:

  1. Reframing fast: Instead of “I got stood up,” switch to “I’m already out, I’ll make this night count.”
  2. Staying put at the bar or café so it looks like you simply chose to be there, not “waiting.”
  3. Making “micro‑openings”: soft eye contact, a small smile, a relaxed posture that signals you are approachable.
  4. Using the situation as an icebreaker in a light way if a conversation starts: “My date bailed, but I decided to stay and enjoy the night anyway.”

Would you like a couple of specific openers you could use if you get stood up?
