A lot of the women I have gone on dates with in the past year are between ages 25 to 32 and many of them have jobs/careers which have them occupied. The issues I've run into lately are:

  • Not knowing their weekly schedules and a lot of my calls between the hours of 9am to 8pm go missed
  • Some girls call back, but some don't
  • Some girls not wanting to share when they are available to take calls and/or their weekly schedule constantly changes so they cannot give a definite timeframe

I'm trying to strike the right balance between calling at the wrong time and eventually pissing these women off or causing them to lose interest (because I come across as needy) or intrusive. Are there things I need to ask these women from the get go to ensure my call game goes smoother? Eg. type of job, if they allow phone usage on the job e.t.c.?

I feel I'm losing women due to this and many of them are not texters so getting them on the phone then on a date is most ideal.

Oh yeah... professional women. They can really make our heads scratch if we don't get them super fast, like from night game or a social circle party. The long game can be more difficult.

I can't speak for calling game as I haven't lots of experience with that in the dating stage. But I will dive into other perspectives that may help you, and they intertwine a bit.

Investment
If they don't have time to text you or call you, you are not that important to them, yet. You are competing with their work, their workout, their dinner and their relaxing evenings. You are also competing with everybody else that wants their time.

That's probably why they lose interest, and you feel it's intrusive at some point. You work too hard to get women that are not all that invested in you. It's what everybody else does.

Instead, invest less in women you are not close with. Be chill. Have upbeat texting chats with them. Follow some of the texting guides around the forum and the main site for what to text about.

You want to make sure they like to get back to their phone and get in touch with you. Once you reach a high note (which can take days, sometimes few weeks, depending on her investment and work schedule) and you feel like suggesting a meet-up, that's when you ask them out.

More or less every woman is notoriously glued to her phone when she has the opportunity. There is no "bad texter". There is just a woman that is not invested in you yet or not that attracted to you.

Timing
As you realized yourself, timing is important.

Call them during work time when they are not all that invested in you, and some will think "I will call him later". Some will get back, and some will forget it 30 minutes later when they are busy with other things.

Instead of randomly calling them, there are times that will be better to text them. I have found - with a little help from a GC newsletter - that it's better to text them around lunch, before dinner and after dinner time (but not too late) during weekdays. During weekends, you can adjust the timing to whenever your own schedule lets you.

If they generally don't answer calls during their working hours, it's probably better to call them in the evening. But even then, I will advise against it if she is not invested in you yet.

But if she's invested and attracted to you, you can bet she will find a way to text you and talk to you regardless of the hour.

I love this response and I will execute on the advise as closely as I possibly can and then write field reports as they come about.

Side note: I really need to get my shit together. I try to be patient with professional women... because look at my own bad habit. I made this post asking for advice and I have been behind on my work projects, almost fell not completing a whole lot other stuff. Heck even cooking my own food feels like a waste of productive time these days.

Back on topic, yes all I can really say now is it's time for my actions to speak louder than my words, regarding this question I will be taking action!
