Imajerk17 Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Question for all of you ladies Internet dating: A girl I would be excited to meet wrote me back with her # late Friday night. This weekend has been very busy for me. Do I really look like a jerk calling her Monday evening (72 hours later)?
Mad Max Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 If you were truly busy, you're not a jerk. If you waited that long because that's what the rules say(a poster mentioned that last night), then you're an idiot.
sugarmomma Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Call her Monday evening. I wouldn't expect someone to call me during the weekend when most people are really busy or resting.
USMCHokie Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Nope, Monday would be a great time to call her and ask her out for later this coming week. And it isn't because you purposely waited to call, but because you legitimately had a life to live this weekend. Unless you had wanted to see her this past weekend, there'd be no reason to contact her that early.
Author Imajerk17 Posted October 4, 2010 Author Posted October 4, 2010 (edited) Thanks! I was crazy busy yesterday. This evening I had a date with someone else (Girl #2) who seems cool and it was a really good first date, and as far as calling Girl #1 after my date with Girl #2, I just can't shift gears that quickly.

Author Imajerk17 Posted October 4, 2010 Author Posted October 4, 2010 I am asking because I usually don't wait that long to call--my experience is that waiting actually causes more problems. See wait too long to call and if you get the other person's vm (likely) they will wait to call you back because they don't want to look overeager--you waited a few days so they follow suit. So you end up 'playing games' and not connecting. I don't have time for that. So having to wait 72 hours is within the bounds of acceptability, cool...
