So does that mean that numbers picked up durn the week are called on the weekends and is after 5:00pm on Friday considered the weekend?

If the girl really likes him why would it even matter when he calls?

Actually, I'm very close with my son and we have a great relationship. He wasn't asking me directly for advice, he was just talking about it which means he wants my opinion without coming right out and asking me (that would embarrass him).

Re: How long do you wait to call a girl?

At 15, timing really isn't that important...

At this point, it's one of two things. 1) She's quite interested and wants to talk to him or 2) She was being nice in giving him the phone number, and she'll tell him over the phone instead of to his face that she's not interested.

So, for his sake, the sooner, the better. That way he knows where he stands, and can move on.

I've got to say, games can be fun. I like to drag things out a bit, so I can let the tension build. It makes the sex better.

About 2: When I was younger and a girl approached me that I wasn't interested in...I would give her the wrong number without flinching. To hell with telling you over the phone, I'll never see you again

Well, I guess when he dials the number and they answer at Joe's Tire World, he'll know where he stands with her...

It's funny how almost every person (man) that I ask this question has a different answer.

If its a weekday it is great because i'll probably be doing something Thursday night because i don't have friday classes and call her up with something to do that night or the weekend.

I feel it matters because it is important to display that you got your own shit going on. You want to be saying, you're cool but if nothing happens, thats ok because i got a lot of other stuff on my plate and a lot of other options.

But if we are really going to get into details... If i really have a good time then an e-mail (or facebook message) is a great way ot make a joke about something that happened that night and bridge the gap before you call her. I would proabably write to her tell her i'm going to call in a couple days and then call her. Most important you have to judge the situation. Each girl is different.

That's because none of us really has a clue.
J/k I think it's more because this type of situation is completely relative to the person. One guy might be much more confident in himself so he'll say make her stew and call her when you feel like it. At the same time someone else might be worried that she'll forget all about him after a few days so he'll say to call ASAP.
I think the best bet is just to tell him to go with his gut. Call when he feels ready. I'd say that the worst thing he can do is to get too nervous and not call her at all because he will most surely regret it later on.


Now I've got to ask: if he met her on Friday and it's now Thursday, has he called her yet?

Oh but at 15 i don't think it matters. She isn't jaded yet and probably expects him to call sooner than later. But really, she probably wants him to call if she gave him her number. I would tell your son to let her sweat it out a day and call the second day. By the time he calls she probably had been thinking about him for a bit and will be excited.
