I'm going to have to equate it to a blind date almost because it was someone I met from online, but it seemed to go over really well.. I'm actually concerned this time with not messing up a good thing.

How soon we be appropriate to give her a call back? Would calling her tonight be a little much or should I give it some air and wait a few days???

    Why don't you guys just do what feels right? Then you won't be cheating her into thinking you're something you're not! :rolleyes:

    So I should call her tonight?

    Another question, the next day we'll both be available to do something is valentines day, we're obviously not in a relationship yet, but would asking her out on Valentines day be a little much?

    That's awesome! :)

    Don't play games. If you want to talk to her, call her! :)

    Exactly! You can't trick someone into liking you. You can but it won't last. It depends what you want. She's either interested or not. If not, that's life. :( (IMO).

    Do what you want to do. :)

    Congrats on the good date. I would call her when you feel like talking to her again. Just be natural. Following some weird set rules starts the "relationship" off on a weird foot. I say, if you want to call her tonight, then go ahead!

    And, if she told you she was free on Valentines day, then maybe she was hoping you'd be free to go out too! I've been out with friends on Valentines day.. its not only for couples. Go have a nice dinner or drinks or something. Valentines day is just a day in the end :)

    Good luck!

    :D I was only kidding. It always makes me laugh when people think there are rules about this shit.

    chances are, if you had a good time, she probably did too. call her if it seems right.

    Well she didn't exactly say she'd be free. She said she'd probably end up going out with her friends for "singles awareness night".. So I didn't really catch if I was supposed to change that, or let her have her time with friends. :o

    I'm pretty sure she's already "aware" of her single status. Talk to her some more and see if she's free!

    Or maybe see if she's free that night and pretend its just a regular Thursday?
  • Brain of J.LoBrain of J.Lo Posts: 3,259
    I think you should just ask her when she's free this week, rather than specifically asking her if she's free on Thursday.

    Call her the day AFTER Valentine's Day ;)... hehehe
    Whoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.

    I think there's just too much room for interpretation and confusion by trying to do something that night. But I'm no love doctor so...

    Call her 37 times in a row right now. That never fails.

    Mike: Hi, uh, Nikki, this is Mike. I met you at the, um, at the Dresden tonight. I just called to say that I had a great time... and you should call me tomorrow, or in two days, whatever. Anyway, my number is 213-555-4679 -
    [the machine beeps]

    Mike: [Mike calls back, the machine picks up]

    Mike: Hi, Nikki, this is Mike again. I just called cuz it sounded like your machine might've cut me off when I, before I finished leaving my number. Anyway, uh, and, y'know, and also, sorry to call so late, but you were still at the Dresden when I left so I knew I'd get your machine. Anyhow, uh, my number's 21 -
    [the machine beeps]

    Mike: [Mike calls back; the machine picks up again]

    Mike: 213-555-4679. That's it. I just wanna leave my number. I didn't want you to think I was weird or desperate, or... we should just hang out and see where it goes cuz it's nice and, y'know, no expectations. Ok? Thanks a lot. Bye bye.
    [hangs up]

    Mike: [Mike walks away from the phone... then walks back and calls again; once again, the machine picks up]

    Mike: I just got out of a 6-year relationship, Ok? That should help explain why I'm acting so weird. I just wanted you to know that. It's not you, it's me. I'm sorry.... This is Mike.
    [hangs up]

    Mike: [Mike calls back, the machine picks up again]

    Mike: Hi, Nikki, this is Mike. Could you just call me when you get in? I'm gonna be up for awhile and I'd just rather speak to you in person instead of trying to fit it all into -
    [the machine beeps]

    Mike: Fuck!
    [Mike calls back, gets the machine again]

    Mike: Uh, Nikki? Mike. It's uh, uh, it's just, uh, this just isn't working out. I think you're great, but maybe we should just take some time off from each other. It's not you, it's me. It's what I'm going through, alright? It's uh... it's only been 6 months -

    Nikki: [picks up] Mike?

    Mike: [very cheerful] Nikki? Great! Did you just walk in or were you listening all along?

    Nikki: Don't ever call me again.
    [hangs up]

    Mike: Wow. I guess you're home.

    be yourself... youre gonna have to resort to it anyway in the next few months if you are still going out with her...if your fake....she will know soon enough...(this idea comes with some warning because some women are crazy...and by some i mean most...possibly all...and thats cool because its hard to argue with cuteness and an extremely warm bed) but what im syaing is.... if you are trying to get laid.....be as fake as possible for as long as possible...but be convincing... but if you like her..... be yourself


    and some may think just wanting to get laid is a bad thing...but its actually doing a favor to her next guy...because already he is 2 steps higher than you...so really... its a good thing!!! your looking out for the little guy... not a damned thing wrong with that.

    I agree... if I went on a first date with somebody and they didn't call or text the next night even just to say they had a nice time and would like to do it again... I'd be wondering what went wrong. I'll never understand the whole 'playing it cool' thing.

    :D Absolutely! Nah, I've been in that position before where it's actually turned me off seeing him again... where he might 'play it cool' and leave it a couple of days to get in touch, I just don't see the point... if you're not interested, don't contact again, but if you ARE interested well BE interested... but by playing it cool, you're giving her too much time to cool off also.
