MalachiX Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Can people please way in if the three day rule is BS or not? I met a nice girl last night at a wedding reception. She was a friend of the bride and I'm very close with the groom. She chatted a bit and danced together as the night went on. I helped her clean up some of the reception decorations as the party was winding down (sometimes takes me a little while to work up the courage to ask someone out); and then invited her out for coffee. I texted her after I left the party and she texted me back some time after I had already fallen asleep. Often I'd go ahead and play this text game for a little while since I actually hate to talk on the phone with people I don't know very well. Recently though I've been told more and more not to do the text thing as it seems like you're not really interested (and I am). I was also wondering about the time frame. Is it too soon to call her the day after? The next ten days are actually SUPER crazy for (I'm producing/directing two web commercials back to back); so the sooner we can figure out when we can do coffee the better. Thoughts? Tips? Dirty limericks?
d0nnivain Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 conventional wisdom on both sides says don't appear too eager. I don't think how soon after you meet is sooooo important as what you say & how you act when you get in touch. Don't gush & make it sound like the world revolves around the new person but be friendly & arrange a date is fine.
d0nnivain Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Call. Always call After you graduate from high school never ask a woman out via text
MidwestUSA Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Call. Let her know you had a great time and you hope she got enough rest to get thru her busy week. Nail down the coffee date. There once was a man from Nantucket..... Oh, never mind.
