Call as soon as you feel like it. What's dopey about as soon as you get
home? Unless it's midnight. The next day is good, whenever you have time
to chat.

If I give my # to someone, I expect a call pretty soon or forget about
it. I sure don't sit around waiting and wondering.

A friend of mine went out with a guy and they hit it off very well they
had met at a place driving their own cars, anyways when the night was
over they made thier way to their own cars and as she began to drive
home he called her on her cell she said it was so sweet he kinda walked
her home on the phone. She loved it and they are now living together
silly but adorable

I liked all the replies. Interestingly, no one shared the same
bozo-advice as my friends. Everyone said "call politely-soon". I like
that.

I really expected that most of the replies would be along the same lines
as my bozo-brothers. Think I need some better friends! Ha ha

i kind of tell people when i'm available to speak, and at the same time
point out that i have voice mail, and that i often don't answer if they
call earlier.

i've been known to give out my number when i really didn't want to...but
then i just chat for a minute and go on with it. i never really
concerned myself with the "will he call?" thing...

Oh my...why do we make every thing so difficult? If you like that person
just call!!!! Rules rules rules...just pick up the phone...geesh you
don't have a time limit....just call!
If I go out with a guy and he says I will call you, if he waits to long,
I think wow he didn't like me to much and then when he does call...I am
not so friendly! So just stop making all of these stupid little rules
and pick up the phone and call :tongue:

LMAO@unsure!

I usually get a call within a week after meeting the guy, is that a way
too long? huh Well, it is all worth it, besides he spends some $$$$
for an international call! laugh

I apply the three day rule. I call sometime on the third day after I get
the number. I don't know if it's playing a game it's just the way I do
it. Don't want to call too soon and sound desperate and you don't want
to call after waiting to long and have to remind them who you are.

It all depends on the situation if you are talking all night and
enjoying each other than call at will. If there was already some kind of
connection established then you can call anytime. If it was just a brief
encounter then wait a few days.

This is one of those things I can't stand. Just like all other little
circle talk, and games involved in "meeting people". Just call her when
you feel you want to talk to her. It's not being "desperate" to talk to
someone you're interested in, and you asked for her phone number so
obviously you're interested. She gave it, so why would she mind talking
to you? Why wait to find out if there's more to it? What I do
recommend though is to avoid texting first to "test the waters". If
someone gives you their number, CALL them first, don't text.

OK but its like a game we play. If you like that person, just pick up
the phone and call. That just drives me crazy...when I meet a guy and if
he says I will call you in a day or so, if he waits to long, forget it!!
I don't like games....ugggggrumble

And FYI when someone gives me their number;

If it was during the day, I'll probably call them that evening, and I'll
let them know that before we part ways.

If it was at night, I'll call them the following afternoon, and again
I'll say "I'll give you a call some time tomorrow".

Exactly Peacekeeper...you have to be attracted to each other or the
number would have never been exchanged. So why play games? That part
just drives me insane!! Just pick up the phone and call laugh

That is exactly why there is the rule because if we wait to long then
forget about it. I think calling right away gives the impression that
you are a clingy person. It's like I don't even know this person and
they are already calling me when we just saw each other.

Maybe I am a game player because I pretty much know exactly how I am
going to react to every situation in the first few weeks of a
relationship. The little tests and trials that tell me if I want to keep
dating a girl or if it's time to move on.
