Do you call?
| Tue, 07-18-2006 - 11:59pm |
So I hung out with this guy last night and we had a fantastic time together. This afternoon he called me but never left a message. Do I call him back or wait for him to call again?

Ugh...that is one of my pet dating peeves...when guys call and don't leave a message! Because, yeah, what are you supposed to do? I err on the side of thinking, if they didn't leave a message, they must be planning on calling me back so I don't call. But it still bugs me when guys do this.

Hey, you ladies, please have mercy for those poor fellows who also suffer from fear of calling, despite the fact that they have a penis between their legs. If you thought he was a good guy to hang out with and YOU want to see him again, yes, do call him. Casually. Free of obligation - for you and for him. Just call, say hello, I noticed you've called but there was no message. So how are you doing? And let him speak then. The ball will be in his court and all you do after that it listen. Simple.
And remember, it's normal to feel a little nervous to call. That is true for you AND for him. Perhaps for him your grass is much greener and the fence is much higher.
I would call and take it from there.
If he's interested, he'll call again. Just be extra vigilant to make sure you get the call if he does call.
I wouldn't call back.
I'm in the 'if you want to call, then call' group. I'd rather pick up the phone and say, "Hey, I noticed you rang. How you doing?" than spending time wondering what the rules are. Whether the result is positive or negative, you get your answer faster.
'If they're interested, they'll call' works both ways, IMO.
