It doesn't matter as long as you CALL HER!!!

Penny Lane · 03-29-2004, 02:31 PM

Don't wait too long. She is probably waiting for your call if she gave you her number.
Don't torture the poor girl!

Anyway, good luck Peter! Hope it works out!

peter may · 03-29-2004, 03:08 PM

yeah i will call her as she was hot, but i dont want to seem too eager as it can be misconstrued as being too keen

Okay, Peter, this is going to sound crazy, but I say wait 5-7 days to call.

Exactly. She wouldn't have given you the number if she didn't want to call. I wouldn't wait more than 2 days, she'll think you aren't interested.

I knew everyone would think my advice (which is actually Doc. Love--a relationship genius's advice) would be bad. But the fact that someone would eventually call (and a few more days isn't that much more), means they are interested. But in waitng almost a week it absolutely avoids someone looking too eager.

Not to mention it tests the girl. If any girl were to say "Oh, you waited a week and that's too long, so now I'm not interested," then that means they weren't that interested to begin with.

It's best not to appear too eager. Two or three days is okay, unless you told her you'd call her the next day.

Of course asking me for advice on women is like asking Michael Jackson for tips on parenting, so do whatever the Hell you want.

coming from a girl who never has the guts to give any guy her number unless they ask for it, IF I gave you my number though, I would understand if you waited two days, but no longer then that.

I don't know how to answer the question... I haven't started dating yet.
