"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

This girl at my work was on her last day and left me a note with her #/email on it before she left. Ive waited a couple weeks already but i was thinking to hold off a bit as i has some thing s to take care of. Is there such a thing as holding off too long?

WTF why would you wait a couple weeks? At the very least I'd think it's common courtesy to respond promptly to a woman who is taking a risk and throwing herself out there for you

It says "spread rep before giving to sage again" but yes. You have waited for much too long because you are chicken.

I know dude- I was there. This cute girl working the cash register a couple of years ago gave me her number on a piece of paper. Actually, she was too shy so she gave it to one of the cooks, who then gave it to me.

I waited so long to call that by the time I finally did, she wasn't interested.

Lesson learned: When you have a number, call quickly to lock it in and/or before you lose your nerve. (no 3 day wait garbage because then you'll put it off).

Although I should add that if you personally feel like calling in 3 days, there are no real hard and fast rules.

Just don't wait 2 weeks man. Never again.

DonDiscovery: The advice was for the OP specifically as well as anyone who is a procrastinator. For rest of us, there are no rules b/c inner state trumps all.

3-4 days about the right time? definitely not 2 weeks.

EDIT: Darth, is that piece of advice for newbies or everyone?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
