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.

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.....

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.
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.

Like Saden said, your son doesn't need to play games and wait. But, just make sure this doesn't happen

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.

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.
