How long do you wait to call a girl?
 
If you met a girl on Friday, hit it off, and she's hotter than you but still gave you her phone number and seemed intersted, how long do you wait to call her?

20 minutes.

Grown men don't play those games. If I'm into you I'll call you right away (or next day depending on circumstance) and let you know what I'm thinking.

Once you're sure she is really a she, she hasn't spent any time in mental institutions and doesn't have a rap sheet a mile long,
AND you're also sure she isn't really emotionally or financially high maintenance,

Once all that checks out OK, go with firstdown's timetable.

Wow, someone wants to get laid asap! ha ha..

Seriously though, some of you don't use the three day rule thing? ...or whatever it is... My brother-in-law used to not call my sister for a few days here and there when they first start dating to keep her guessing, and it worked becuase they are married...

What if she's a little intimidating and you really, really like her and don't want to scare her off?

So what your saying is you gave this guy your number Friday night and on Wednesday eve he still has not called you. Sorry, and to top it off, you did this thinking you where better looking than him. Funny how things work out. LOL

Well at age 15 he is to young to sit around and wait on a girl so tell him to go out and play. That he will have plenty of time for girls to screw up his life.

Three day rule? If I'm in a Romantic Comedy I might observe the rules. Alas, I live in the real world and those rules will only slow me down.

I LOL'd hard at that. Nice work AMD. + rep points... oh wait.

There's no hard and fast rule. If the girl is into him, she'll appreciate a call any time, whether it's 20 minutes or a week later. If she's not into him, she won't like the call at any time.

Just call her now. Life's too short for that crap.

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]My son has never dated before, but he is 15 and would like to and met a girl and asked me about it….. so I thought I'd try to (discretely) get some friendly advice from you guys..... [/FONT][/COLOR]

Answer: call, don't wait.

3 days is kinda money. You don't want to seem too desperate.

Sorry Hess. I'm not giving anymore dating advice on this site because I don't want to get Rick Rolled again.

Answer: call, don't wait.[/QUOTE]Yeah, three days might be a bit too long to wait, but at the same time I dont think he should start texting her 5 minutes after he talks to her for the first time.
I'd say the next day is pretty good because it shows you aren't obsessing but at the same time it's not enough time that he's going to be sitting there over-thinking things.

I read the recent posts, sorry about not putting 2 + 2 together when I was at work earlier. Anyway, I've got a 15 yr. old too, and as a parent checking out her myspace or facebook is defintely a good idea.

Other than that, just tell him to be himself and don't play games. If she's a good kid and really does like him he would just mess things up by playing games anyway.

djnemo65 07-09-2008 07:02 PM

Re: How long do you wait to call a girl?
 
Personally I don't think its realistic to expect a 15 year old to not screw this up royally. That's what being 15 is about, you screw these things up so by the time you get to college you kind of know what you are doing.

This is not the response I expected from you. What's wrong with using this little pearl of wisdom you offered in another thread?

"At this point I think your best strategy for winning her over is to get a girlfriend who is way hotter and cooler than her. That always works."

I would have to respectfully disagree, but if it's worked for you, who am I to argue? :)

I'm of the opinion that wooing a woman and male chivalry in general died out a long time ago.

Depends on situation. At a party or something, next day. If it's early in the day, that evening is an option.

Re: How long do you wait to call a girl?
 
Hmmm, it's a tough call when to make that tough call. I say if he's pretty confident in himself then he can call whenever he wants.

EternalEnigma21 07-09-2008 11:21 PM

Re: How long do you wait to call a girl?
 
The fact that he's asking his mom for advice means he's dead in the water. He's overthinking. I know it sounds stupid, but being yourself is much more interesting than trying to conform to rules and social regulations. F it, if he feels like having a couple of shots and calling in the middle of the night while he's pleasuring himself, by all means have him do so. At least it will be memorable, and at 15 that's all you can really hope for.

Thats probaboly true as well. Not so much the part with asking his mom for any advice, absolutley nothing wrong with that....but that probaboly means he is overthinking, which is never good. I'm pretty much a shining example of overthinking everything, and ussually that is what ends up biting me in the ass in the end...but like someone else said, at least he's learning this all at 15, I didnt really pick up on it until well into college.

This is the winning post right here. If he has confidence it doesn't matter when he calls, because the attitude he will convey is that of self-assurance. Waiting a few days to call is a way of making it look like you are busier than you really are, more popular than you really are, which may work for a short time but eventually will be exposed as faking the funk.

There is no magic formula. I think it's typically best to wait a few days, but because you really have stuff going on and it really does take you that long to call, not because you are strategizing your every maneuver.

Anyway, what I would tell homeboy is this: you are young, you have your life ahead of you, you are probably good looking because your mom is always talking about how hot she is:silly:. Live your life with complete belief in yourself and your future, and a cool girl won't be able to help being drawn to that.

Or just wait three days and hope for the best. Good luck shorty!

Please understand that I am joking........ Around the same time you women wanted to be treated equal with men.


I know that you are not that kind of woman, but I will take my shots when I can get them.
