The only way they'll ever make the moves is if you work for samsung. 
Otherwise its up definitely up to you. |

I don't believe it!!!> Guys really are more complicated that women...or at least me. I would never think about it this much! Just call if you like them, whenever. I mean, surely they wouldnt not-see you just because you called too early? would they? |
In the US it was the 3 day rule. You never called someone the day after you get their number, or after the 1st date. You always waited 2-3 days. I think the reasoning behind it is that you don't want to come off as being desperate. Like, if you got a girl's phone number and called her the next day, you come off as being too eager and desperate. If you wait too long then she'll forget about why it was she gave you her phone number.
I always thought it was stupid. Then again, I didn't want to take the chance of scaring a girl away so I followed it. |

Just be YOURSELF! Jokes are all-good on the first date. If she doesn't appreciate them perhaps she's not worth it anyway!! |
Listen to ME- the first date is a "mine field" of love
Be smart, play it safe, and be prepared to listen. In Texas we say "You can't learn with your mouth open." |

That is rediculous. A full day together will leave her wanting more. A good date cut short will send her the wrong signals. |
The purpose of a first date is to see if you want a second date. If she isn't for you, then two hours isn't so bad. And if all goes well, then you can arrange that second date.
A full day together with someone you're sure you don't want to meet again just seems like a waste of time to me.
Two hours! |

After you meet a girl in a bar and get her phone number, or after you have a date, just send a quick text message the next day "hey..i had a lot of fun (it was great meeting you)...talk to you soon."
No reason not to...and I've never met a girl who didn't appreciate a quick 'hello' text message the next day.... |

| I broke all thes rules. My first date with the gf, was an all day date, i made alot of jokes, talked alot because i do, and I called the next day cos I liked her. You either like each other or you don't, don't over analyse it. |

"A full day together with someone you're sure you don't want to meet again just seems like a waste of time to me."
Agreed.
I'm talking about a date that is going well. There's no reason to play dating games or use over-spun advice from Cosmo.
Man: "I'm having a great time tonight."
Woman: "Me, too, it's great to finally meet someone who understands my point of view."
Man: "I wish I would've met you sooner!"
Woman: "Where do you want to go next?"
Man: "I'm gonna go home now, have fun on the subway. Maybe I'll call you in 2-3 days."
Woman: "Ok? What's wrong?"
Man: "I want to be sure I get a second date. See you later."
Woman: "Idiot." |

I only call them again if I wake up with them in my (or someone elses) bed the next morning.
And usually it is, "So, what was your name again?" or, "Sorry, my girlfriend called so I had to leave early." or "Just send the bill to my office."
Heh.
I never followed rules. I find such rules to be annoying. If I really like the chick and we connect I thank her the next day. If I was blah about it then I let them make the call. Sometimes if I'm on the fence I'll make the second call. |

| yeah, playing by hard and fast rules is kinda silly. you gotta "be in the moment" as the hippies say. in other words, don't play by some rules you made up beforehand, just react to the situation as it happens. that said, if the date is getting boring and you're running out of sh*t to talk about, just cut it short. then go out, do about 20 exciting daredevil things, and you'll have stuff to say on the next date. |

Funny stuff
OP- Women do this kind of stuff, but you can do it, too. Have someone call your cell phone about 2 hours into the date. If the date is fun, ignore the call.
If it's he11, answer the cell phone, and say "I'll be right there."
Tell her this- a friend is being rushed into surgery, and you need to be there for them. You can't possibly expect her to go with you because it could take all night. You'll call her later and let her know how your friend is doing.
Then lose her number. |

Was it love?
BTW- at some point, you'll wish you had listened to me. It may not be with this young lady, but eventually you'll understand. |
