For real.. she can warm the girl up and tell her how great of a guy you are. They are more likely to believe a girl telling them that than one of your drinking buddies doing the same thing.

Picking up the phone and dialing the number.

There's no special time limit you have to wait, no special prep you have to do, no number of hours you should hold off before dialing, no magic day of the week that will give you a better chance than others. If you want to call, just call. In fact, I'd be more likely to wait less time than more so that you can keep momentum and interest going, and won't let nerves get in the way.

You do tend to get nervous when you think too much, invisiblewar. I think even three days might be a little long. Honesty and openness, remember? If it doesn't pan out, so what? There will be more. You won't know until you call.

Nothing lost by a hey what's up text. And usually, if she gives you her number, she expects you to call. Just be you. Same shit you've been doing for the past 20 years.

Girls always make the first move. It may be overt or covert but all you have to do is pay attention and approach. It doesn't matter what you say. Just say it without slobbering or spitting on her

Met a fking smoking hot Czech girl who goes to school with one of my buddies, for the first time meeting her I'd say we hit it off nicely; that is one time I wish I would have learned Czech from my dad growing up . Didn't get her number and since I don't know when/if I will see her next I saw she's a friend on my buddy's fb so I added her and within like 2 hrs she confirmed and even sent a little 'hello' message and stuff lol. So I sent her one back not trying to make it too obvious but sayin I had a good time and should hang out again soon . :ibcheckingfbtomorrow:

Why? Because she smiled and was polite? More details. List specific indicators of interest. Did she touch/play-slap you when you teased her? Etc.

that is one time I wish I would have learned Czech from my dad growing up .
She didn't know English at all? How'd you hit it off?

Didn't get her number
Did you ask for it?

and since I don't know when/if I will see her next I saw she's a friend on my buddy's fb so I added her and within like 2 hrs she confirmed and even sent a little 'hello' message and stuff lol.

Weak. Hitting on her/playing the nice-guy route online with a really hot girl isn't going to tingle her vagina. And FYI, triggering her 'gina tingle is exactly what you want to do.

Don't take her acceptance of your FaceBook friend request as a real indication of her interest. You've done nothing to spark her desires.

You have zero game. The only way I see this working is if 1.) she finds you very physically attractive, and you essentially get lucky with her, but if you don't step up your game you probably won't get past the two-week mark. You may actually get a date or two with her, but if you don't interest a hot girl quickly, intentionally or not, she'll spend her time with a different stud who's not sitting at home masturbating to her FaceBook profile.

Or 2.) she can string you along while your orbit her space fantasizing about one day hooking up with her. You'll play the friend route and she'll distrust you and your intentions as a man. She'll look at you as her gay friend (even if you're not), because real man go after what they want and sometimes mess up in the process.

Being a man is sloppy some times, and you can't always wait for the perfect moment (there rarely is one).

If she's typically way out of your league, a girl you've never seen yourself possibly being with, I suggest you amp yourself up and go balls out. I don't mean taking her to expensive dinners or buying her flowers or gifts. I mean taking this opportunity to employ your balls, strike a conversation with her about something you're comfortable talking about and isn't nerdy, be cool, and generally charm her.

Don't mess around with over-compensating with a ridiculous amount of arrogance. Given your weak start, you'll likely come off as trying to hard and a fraud. Had you known you were going to see her you could have prepared and come out of the gate with super-cocky/alpha swagger, but it's a bit late now. You'll have to settle for another strategy, but you have to paint yourself in a different light.

I'm guessing you have pictures on your FaceBook of you hanging out with your mom and dad, maybe playing boccie ball. Well that's going to bring you down a couple notches, since that crap is crazy boring to a hot girl.

A lot of game comes flowing out of you with ease once you've embraced the fact that you're a man and men do things naturally that trigger a woman's sexual attraction button (the fact that it may feel like a mystery to you is just indicative of grander social programming developed to ensure that women's partner choices are much more keen and aware of the barriers to their sexuality. Game is essentially a tool to pry-open the social mechanisms women employ to counter our naturally aggressive sexual state). Practicing those behaviors can improve your chances with hot girls by factors you'd probably never think of. And I'm guessing you'd want that more in your life because since you're crossing your fingers.

Invisible's been away from south FL too long. You need to retreat and regroup your chick getting skills. Just pretend the chicks are wannabe hoochies that we're so used to and all will be well.

And I don't understand the whole idea of texting instead of talking to a new prospect. Sure you can think a little longer with texting but the benefits of actual talking exceed the ones of texting. Now if you got a high pitched Erkel voice then text away.

I think both of us being Czech helped so we were able to talk about random 'Czechish' stuff. And she always smiled at me and even if I said non-funny stuff she would laugh. And from the corner of my eye I could tell she kept looking at me and smiling... not trying to be cocky here.

She didn't know English at all? How'd you hit it off?
She does know English well.. she is an exchange student here, but I wish I would have known Czech so I could have had a more private convo with her

Did you ask for it?
Twice and each time this drunk fuck that was at our table whom I've never met before kept yelling out random shit like 'o yea!' and making a scene, including spilling his beer twice all over the table. By the end I was like... wow really..fuck it I will just ask her when we leave (because I wanted to invite her to a friend's place to watch football the next day.. having some friends there including two other Czech girls so she really seemed like she wanted to go) so as we walk out I ask her for her number again and this time my buddy interrupts and keeps saying 'don't worry about it I will make sure she comes tomorrow" (he does this sort of crap because he is the big-ego type and also thinks she's hot; yea he wants to do her but also knows I like her and probably was doing his 'if I can't have her I will ruin your chances' routine, so I planned on getting it the next day when I saw her but he didn't tell her and she didn't come... I gave in too easily and shoulda told him to stfu and gotten it anyways.

Wrong. I have gotten my fair share of women ... probably not as much as you or have as much game as you though

The only way I see this working is if 1.) she finds you very physically attractive, and you essentially get lucky with her, but if you don't step up your game you probably won't get past the two-week mark. You may actually get a date or two with her, but if you don't interest a hot girl quickly, intentionally or not, she'll spend her time with a different stud who's not sitting at home masturbating to her FaceBook profile.

Practicing those behaviors can improve your chances with hot girls by factors you'd probably never think of. And I'm guessing you'd want that more in your life because since you're crossing your fingers.



Lots of info in there. One thing I would like to say is you presume a lot of things without knowing the girl or me and seem to think every girl is the same. I do agree that MOST girls are like that but not all. I know you are just giving your input/advice but there are a couple things I'd have to disagree on there. Nonetheless, I took some good points from what you wrote and thanks for your input. Not trying to start a fight or anything lol but that is what I think... feel free to reply though.



Oh and btw, I know it is definitely not the way I would have liked to have done it and ya'll can make fun all you want, but she did send me another message saying she would love to see me again and gave me her number - and that is all that counts. Now it is my turn to capitalize.
