What does "flat out" mean in this paragraph?
Here is paragraph:
"You should only pause at each step if the circumstances call for it, and if she is uninterested and therefore puts up resistance, you should keep going either until you break through it or until she flat out rejects you so that you know for sure you should move on without wasting more time."
I've searched on Internet and saw "flat out" has 2 meaning 1)directly/bluntly 2) completely/ definitely. So what does "flat out" mean in this paragraph?

It means if she rejects you in a way that leaves absolutely no room for doubt.....that she isn't 'playfully,' turning you down in the hope that you will try to persuade her to go out with you - she is doing it in a very forceful and obvious way that is makes it very apparent that she has no interest in you whatsoever.
p.s. You are the second person in the past few weeks to ask a question about precisely this passage from this book which worries me slightly as it seems that lots of people seem to be reading what I assume is a 'pick up manual,' (a book about how to get the women that you want).
