Hey everyone, recently been going out with a girl a few times. Last two times I've called her (wanted to practice some calling skills), and each time it went to voicemail. She would then call me back about 2 hours later. Today, I waited 2 days before calling her (normally I call her the day after) and this time its been the entire day and haven't gotten any response. It seems she might have been too busy or gone cold (she was normally very enthusiastic about me calling). Does anyone know if I waited too long (2 days) this time or if I should message her tomorrow with a date proposal? Thanks.

Hi,

If there's one situation I wish I could see a girl in action do it's how she responds to a text from an unseen guy she's interested in. It was a reason why I tried to buddy up with the girls as much I could. A lot of how I handle situations with girls came from remembering how girls approached me in the past. For me and a lot of the girls I interact with, it's a faux pas to call them directly. They never pick up the phone--even with girls and much older women I have no romantic relations with(or so I believe). If they don't return texts, than I go silent for a certain amount of time(1-3 months). When I do text them after that time it's a message that typically doesn't require a response(like announcing I've added new pictures to my social media page). If I know when their birthday is, I'll message that. I'm pretty sure they're getting the message instantaneous--they're just not responding. The girls I feel I have a weaker bond with, I often will wait much longer(like between Valentine's Day and Halloween when I dress up) and will always send a pic with the text. Someone on this board said that you may(and are expected to) take command of the affair but she's the one who controls the pace. You cannot advance the affair unless she shows she's willing to go along with it. That's why you don't focus on one girl and try to meet and socialize with as many females as you can. You don't know who might respond and who won't.

You're all over the place with this response man. It's not linear and doesn't make sense.

I call girls frequently. It's a great way to build trust and NOT MANY GUYS DO IT. Which separates you from the average guy. What was a phone built for in the first place? To call someone. I think calling is a great thing to do and it has aided me in getting laid in the past. I once matched with a girl on Tinder and had 2 conversations on the phone before she drove to me and we had sex. It was fantastic. If we didn't have those phone conversations it probably would have been harder to build that aspect of trust.

In your own specific situation OP, I don't think it's completely over. She isn't responding but how long has it been? She did message you back apologizing for not being able to take your call. That's a good sign but it could mean 1 of 2 things:

1. She is genuinely interested in you and sorry for missing your call
2. She was just being nice and isn't actually interested in you

By this point if you still aren't getting responses, it's probably the 2nd option. Do you know where you went wrong?

Keep us updated though. Calling is a good thing. Props for trying that. Best of luck.

Cheers
