Wait till thursday to call her at the soonest. Ask her if she would like to go get a drink with you, but not this weekend (you're busy!), the following weekend.

I bet you dont get dates very often. If she gave you her number without hesitation.. call her back and as someone else said.. ask her to grab a bite to eat with you later this week. 🙂 simple enough

Call her cell. If she doesn't answer leave a message. If she doesn't return your call within 3.96 minutes, call her back again. If she doesn't answer again leave another message saying you just wanted to make sure she got the first one. If she doesn't call back within 5.34 minutes, call her back again and she should answer. If she doesn't, tell her it is her last chance...and she better fvcking call you back...cause you are not there to play games. Wait 12.43 minutes this time...and if she doesn't call back, call her cell again. This time when she doesn't answer (she'll see your number and not answer on purpose) tell her she is going to regret this day. Tell her that you just got out of Chino and you're willing to do whatever it takes to make her love you. She won't call you back. So wait about 6 hours. Call her again, and leave her a message that you are watching her. Tell her you can't wait for your "opportunity". Tell her she'll be the happiest woman in the world when you are "done" with her. Let her sweat for a bit. Call back in a day or so and just leave a message that says, "Hi, this is Tom (insert your real name there). I'm just wondering why you haven't called me back. Thought we could get some dinner sometime."

Chicks love that....

Yep........... worked for me!!! 😀
 
call her. dont follow any rules about how long to wait or whatever, call her tonight if you want. if she likes you she wants you to call her. (duh)
 
There is this dating book called "the rules" or something like that, very popular among women. You need to read that. One of the rules: call at least 2 days before the date.

LOL. The beginning is too similar to that thread that was posted awhile back from another forum that had that certified psycho lady calling a guy at all hours leaving rambling, delusional messages on his voicemail. He posted dozens of the messages online.

Don't HOPE. Go make it happen. Very discreetly ask your supervisor if you can have your break the same time she has hers and do this with conviction/confidence.

They don't need to know your reasons; most won't care.

Btw, have you heard of the Ladder Theory? I think you need to read it: Here

If you want to avoid all the BS and mental anguish you're about put yourself through (I used to do this to myself too), when you do get a date with her, be upfront and lay your cards on the table.

Tell her you have no interest whatsoever in becoming only friends. If she seems interesting or is interested in you (about 15-20 minutes into the date, ask your gut--it's seldom wrong), give her some compliments--mix it up a little, don't just talk about her looks. At the end of the date, if you had a good time, tell her that.

Btw, a lot of that stuff about women liking sensitive guys is absolute BS. They want a sensitive guy when they're not out banging the outlaw biker (borrowed from the Ladder Theory). Women want men who are confident and charming--these two go hand-in-hand, although there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance.

Just to cover your ass, ask her if she is attached (e.g. boyfriend, not-quite-boyfriend guy). Either way, find out and save yourself time, money, and unnecessary BS.

So in closing, CALL HER and ask her out. Be confident, charming, open the door, pay the bill, be a gentleman, and let her know what your intentions are. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying to jump her guns or rush anything. This is merely establishing groundzero so you do not spend weeks/months wasting your fvcking time--it's just not worth it.

I'm not suggesting you try this, but I have and so far it hasn't failed me: "I am not looking to be only friends; I'm not in it to only get laid; I'm in it to find something meaningful; I'm not trying to rush anything--I just want to know where I stand."

Women respect men with the balls to say what they want because, hell, they don't know what they want so somebody's got to be the rational one, right?

I hope things go well with you, if not do not fret. The more experience you gain, the more immune you become to being turned down or disappointed. It's not a big fvcking deal. At the end of the day, you still got your health. 😎

I only wish I could remember what it was titled. Maybe somebody else will. The girl was pretty screwed up. It was sad.

Quote from Swingers:

Mikey: How long should I wait to call her?
Trent: you know a couple of days or sometimes i wait 3 days cause everyone waits 2 days....so i can keep it fresh.
Mikey: really? so 2 days but really how long do you wait?
Trent: 6 days

I offered advice too you ungrateful bastard! I hope she gave you the number to Jim's Auto Service...not really her cell. :|
 
She gave you her number, dont be too eager, but dont wait until the weekend to call her.. call her tonite.. or tommorow night and setup a date..

for saturday..

what ever you do, dont make it a last minute date plan.
 
Be content with your hand, since you seem to have no real world knowledge.
Sit on your computer all day avoiding sunlight and interaction with anyone/thing except your hand.
 
Sorry if I was kind of ranting, but just to let you know, I've been through a lot of BS with women--in particular recently I just got out of a 4 year relationship (engaged for almost a year). She cheated on me with some other guy and dumped me when I confronted her. This happened back in April/March (the Ides of March LOL).

I recently found out that they're now either engaged or he bought her a "promise ring" of some sort because he's a poor loser (no offense to you other guys who bought promise rings, but Jesus-fvcking-Christ don't be a cheap bastard when it comes to such things!).

I thought my life was over when this happened because I was basically out on my ass--I spent all of my senior year of college looking for a job in New Zealand (I planned to move there this September). One day, I woke up and said "Fvck it, I'm not going to feel sorry for myself." I got up, dusted myself off, called a few good friends out for some beer. And now, I've never been happier.

I also found out that guy is treating her like crap now. How do you like them apples? LOL

But yeah, I sounded kinda bitter on my first reply to your post, but I'm really not. My point is, life is too short to waste your time on this kind of BS. If you're curious to know, I did get my ring back and I'm selling it back to the jeweler and buying myself a nice BIG SCREEN TV afterwards.
CHEERS!!

Keep us informed of your progress, mmkay?
