Have Plans Before You Make Plans
Keep in mind: every girl you want to date will be thinking the same thing when she’s flirting with a guy: “What would my life be like if this person were my boyfriend?” She’s going to want to know whether she can expect excitement and intrigue or if her future with you would be a never-ending string of nights consisting of Torchwood reruns followed by marathon Kill Confirmed sessions in Modern Warfare 3 while she quietly dies inside and wishes she’d gone out with that bartender with the lip rings instead.
So while you’re talking, you’re going to want to bring up the plans you have for that week… not what you want to do with her, but the cool things that you’ve got coming up that you’re looking forward to. You want to demonstrate to her that you live an interesting and exciting life – one that she’d enjoy being part of. You don’t want to come off as trying too hard – you don’t have to brag about how you and your friends are getting bottle service at this club or you’re going to a super-exclusive party that celebrities will be hosting – but you do want to actually demonstrate that you have a life outside of her.
If you’re not living that life already… well, then you’d better start, huh? Start making a list of the things you’d be doing if you were living the life you wanted, then start going out and doing them. Use the internet and find the cool shit going on in your town that you’d want to do with a girl and start making inroads. This way when the subject of plans comes up, you’ll have more to talk about when the “So… what are you doing this weekend” topic inevitably comes up besides “well, I was hoping that you and I could…”
Voice Mail and Missed Connections
Just remember this rule of thumb: One unreturned phone call could be anything. Two is a message. Three means it’s time to quit.
