Dating seems to have become a lot more difficult than it used to be years ago. Back in the good old days, it seemed the man saw his dream girl, asked her out, he pursued her, they fell in love and were married and ready to start a family. Today you're lucky to get a man who calls you more than once a month before the sun has gone down and don't even think about going out on a date? Huh, that's asking for a bit much. (We will just blame it on the price of gas.)
So once you snag that fella and he actually asks you out on a date and you both obviously had fun; what should you expect next? Who should call the next day to show their interest? I personally believe that if he said he would call you later then he should do just that. Otherwise, I may feel he's not interested and get irritated. However, I will consider things happen so he maybe having issues feeling confident enough to call so I might break the ice and call first. After that if I don't sense he's still interested then I will not call back.Who wants to stress over feeling wanted? He's either interested or he's not. I wanted some feedback on this issue so I asked a few good friends of mine and wanted to include their feedback. Here is what they had to say:
- My first friend who is single and dating says; If you’re interested in this guy then you should call him. On the other hand, if he said he was going to call you, you should wait to see if he’s going to call and if he doesn’t then you can call him and say hello just to get a feel for his vibe. If the tone or vibe is different then she suggests not calling back a second time.
- My other good friend who is currently in a relationship says; The person who asked you out should call first out of common courtesy.
- Finally I wanted a males perspective and a good friend of mine who is also single says; He thinks that when a female calls you back it shows that she is interested. It is also important to the man to know that she took the time to call him first. But, if a man doesn’t call back then he’s probably not that interested, because he knows first hand that you make time for a woman you’re interested in, he sure does.

I usually wait a day or two to see if the guy will call. If he doesn't I'll call him just to see how he's doing. If he sounds kind of nonchalant, I don't call any more. Sometimes you have to read in between the lines, guys don't usually come out and tell you, "Hey, this ain't gone work."
Thanks Susie, I'm with you on this one! If the vibe changes then off I go. I don't have a degree in counseling!! LOL Thanks for your comment.
I agree that if he said he will call then you should hold him to that promise. If no one was clear about who would call, then guess I could see calling just to see where you stand if he hasn't called and curiosity get the best of you. Of course part of me thinks that no matter how curious you are, if he hasn't called he probably isn't worth calling.
So true Tina! I hate playing the waiting game, you're either interested or you're not.
