If a girl gives you her number in AIM chat and it's clear she is interested in you, should you call her right away or wait a day?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

because she gave her number it is certain there are some interest in you.

Call her when you want, and when you actually have stuff to talk about. I never follow a timer on when I should call a girl. I call her when I have plenty to say and feel like talking to her.
This prevents boring convos.

Don't call her right when she gives it to you over AIM, that's just retarded. Like Dannyrt34 said, call her when you are going to ask her out or have something to say. Otherwise you can just continue your convo over AIM.

I got numbers of AIM, called them on the spot and asked em to come over... it works.. there is a difference when you met the person live and let their imagination fly, vs seeing text... talking on the phone, puts some of your text in context.... its like some of the people read my mental abuse stuff and totally got it wrong, but if i was to do an audio they would get a better understanding of it..
by the way.. im almost 29 yo
I was one of the FIRST and ORIGINAL people on AIM (had all the best names that you cant get today like, Lookn4love, HotBody4U etc etc ...
at that time, all cool screen names were for the taking. SexyGuy lol
this was a time where there were no pix.. you would literallly just describe yourself.. i was 15 yo then and i would get these absolutley models to hook up with.. unbeliveble...
Before AIM there was Sierra Online chat, you guys probably dont even know that, cause your too young to know
ohh u might warn her... like "im gonna call u right now" or "ring, ring, ring"

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
