First Date Set-up Call

[the_m@n]

Hey guys.

I got out of a long term relationship and am back in the dating world, however I am a little rusty... I will accept the fact that I was a dummy for getting into a long term relationship and leave it at that.

Anyway, I number closed a cutie I was dancing with at the bar over the weekend and called to set up the first date. Now here is the interesting part:

I called but no answer so I hung up. She calls me back about 40 minutes later (caught me off guard cuz football was on) and I answer her call. I proceeded to set up the first date and I am picking her up at her house this weekend. (Important to know: She got my number when I got hers so she knew it was me that called)

My question is... did I do the right thing here?

I wasn't expecting the call back and I was planning on calling her in a few days. Was I correct in picking up the phone? or did I make some mistake? I am concerned because I want to make sure that I don't repeat the error (if there was one) when I set up more first dates with other women.

Thanks. Still trying to re-learn.

You're over-analyzing this. You did nothing wrong. You have a date, no need to worry.

First off ( i know i am setting myself up to get attacked here) but there is nothing wrong with having an actual long term relationship. Some people just think there is.

Sounds like you did everything okay, the date is set. If she cancels give her the benefit of the doubt, if she does it again then next her ass and keep going nothing to it.

I had the same situation. I called today she didn't pick up and I hung up and she called 10 minutes later 2 times. But I missed the call cause I was driving. Should I call her back the same day or in a few days?

YThanks guys. As far as escalararoyals situation is concerned I would wait. Keep her guessing on when you are going to call. She will be thinking about you and wondering when you are going to call. Will put you in better control I think.
Good luck.
