Lollsabell Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 Okay, people. This is for all you boys and girls out there... Right. Say we have Person A and Person B. They meet and they go for a drink. Something, er may have happened. They go to their respective homes but, TWO FREAKIN' WEEKS LATER (Not based on pesonal experience ) Neither of them has called each other because both are possibly thinking the following things about one another: 1. "Should I call, or am I being too pushy here?" 2. "Oh, f.f.s.! why hasn't he/she called already?" 3."That's it. I'm chickening out." 4. He/she isn't calling. Ergo, he /she thinks I am a troll. Keep it clean folks, I want lots of replies to this one! Loll xo
Sukotto Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 Most likely all 4 Take the chance and call this guy, if he says he's busy then just accept it. Whats the worse that could happen?
Author Lollsabell Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 Whoa, this is only in theory! I mean it's interesting, the whole ettiquette side of things. He's too scared to call her. She thinks that if she calls him she'll seem like a stalker. That kind of thing. Has anyone been in this situation? Wha's your story? xo
Merin Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 If I went and had drinks with a guy, and *something* happened.. then I went home.. IF this guy had not called me within 2 days.. 3 days tops.. I wouldn't think he had any of the thoughts listed.. I would take it that while maybe he had a good time out that something had happened in between that had made the decision for him that he wasn't that into me and didn't want to tell me. I would blow it off, and move on. Just my two cents
hugznkisses21 Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 hahaha this is true. When i went on my first date with my bf he told me he doesnt call after first dates..... Which was his way of finding out in i like him cause basically if i wanted to see him i would have to call....smart eh...he totally let me know he was into me and avoided rejection of the bat. I know by him saying that he wanted me to call....and 1.5 yrs later here we are!

Author Lollsabell Posted November 21, 2004 Author Posted November 21, 2004 I've just logged back on and -oops. Didn't want to make it sound like that first post was all about "me me me", I was just using personal experience as an example! No, it just made me think about the whole "who calls who back" scenario and I find that quite interesting. Just a thought, people, I'm not asking for advice here but thanks all the same! Loll xo
ps123 Posted November 21, 2004 Posted November 21, 2004 For me, I dont play any of those time limit-call games. If I meet someone and feel like calling the next day, I do. If I dont, I dont. If I feel like giving it a few days, I do. If I call the next day, and she thinks thats being desperate, then shes not meant for me anyways. I know Im not desperate so it doesnt matter to me what she thinks. Ive been single for loooong periods of time and Im fine with it. Its rare that Ill like someone and be interested, so if I am, I usually want to call the next day to just say I enjoyed meeting them. I do have to add though, I havent hooked up up and gone home with anyone from a bar or party in years, so maybe my opinion might be different than other peoples. Theres nothing wrong with that, but for me, I guess the whole casual sex thing just isnt much fun anymore. I need to know the person fairly well before I do that. I dont drink anymore either though so that may have something to do with it .
overseas2004 Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 Had a guy that was calling from time to time. It confused me. I didnt know what to think. All the regular stuff. Well last friday I found out that he is an immature 42 year old who is afraid of commitment and already has a girlfriend whom he claims not to love.... Best of luck but I think that if a guy doesnt call then your better off not getting hurt by provoking something to happen that shouldnt happen. The rules are a bit far fetched but they are a good guide. Love Overseas
