If they say "call me," they are serious.

If they say "I will call you," don't hold your breath to it.

Merri: Not long ago, i was out and a guy tried to chat me up. I let him know I was not interested but he insisted in giving me his number. I said " you can give me your number but I will not call you so you better not wait around for it"

He said I was cold and then wrote his number down and gave it to me


I think you did good, you were honest and he didn't like it.
I can't imagine, why he had to give you his number, yuk!

In response to: tightboxers: You got me all wrong.
I would be quietly picking up her door key without waking her,sneaking to the shops and gathering food for breakfast alongside flowers and chocolates and the morning paper.
Then I would present her with a fully cooked breakfast,on a tray in bed.


doberman3: That would be lovely.

Yes,and when she says "Oh,that is perfect" I will reply "I know it is,and from now on I expect my breakfast to be presented to me like that every morning"

when a woman is "being nice", it means you have a shot. When she says, "back off", she's not playing hard to get. IMO uh oh

Well D., I guess you are right because he did give me his number and said to call him. Then the next time he called me.

Good point. You see, guys we need help with what you say to us, ha.

No, that all guys lie, I did get my call Wed. nite.

I guess it is better to expect that they will not call.That way you are
not let down and go on with your life. But from this thread, I have seen that some guys do make it a point to call when they say they would.

Some of us even call when you are pissed off at us & do not want to talk with us..devil

doberman3: When I hear this, I think either he will or won't. If he is really interested he will.

I guess women think the guy should call if he says he will. But we know, don't count on it.

Just wondering what is going on in CS guys minds about this, also, CS
women.

I am not waiting for a call either. Just curious.

The Doberman
Hi Dobes--I believe that you can pretty much tell if he's going to call or not. Also, if he is honest and comes right out and says that he doesn't plan to, then he's a jerk, in most people's eyes.(He can't win for losing, so he makes a graceful exit with lying- saying he will call.) If he's really going to call, he'll be hesitant and downright reluctant to end the date--you can tell if you're paying attention. If your date is on the cell phone or distracted very much (looking around, etc... making conversation with other people) then probably not a very good sign. JMOteddybear

JTMartino: I, for one, always call if I say I will.


I like that answer, I'm sure all of CS women would say thank you.
It means alot to us, when a man says they will call and we like them.

Just like if you like a woman, it means something.

Thanks,

I agree. Frankly some guys have said that after a date and I am glad they said it because finally the date is over.

Exactly, I think some guys say that and you know they are not going to,
its a way to exit, stage left.

Yes, I would say if you have had a date and they come back to your door and say they are lost? then they want to spend some time with you, come on, we know. I was happy to see him again.

I know that sign, acting strange, like they are in another world,
it sure is a sign.

Very good post, Rohaan, thanks.

Exactly, Still. But for a guy does that mean if you have her number and call, you are expecting no expectations?

I guess we do seem like Queens with you guys as subjects since we expect you to call us.

Now, Still, please tell all, have some bold women given you their number and you have called?

ALso, have you not called, because you think them too forward.

Maybe you have not called, also because you did not ask and are not interested.

Ha, I am asking alot of you. It's this new age we have, but it seems to still be the old way in general in my viewpoint.

Truth be told, if I get a # number, it scares me a little . . . no, it scares me a lot. I am shy when initially to someone, it feels like I am put on the spot. Always stuck for words and just freezing up.

So how would you rather handle it?

I can understand the panic though. When someone does call me all I can think about it "omgomgomgomgomg"

I will try to find a way to make myself do it. The awkwardness will go away provided your talking to someone who you can talk to easily.
