pinkbunnie Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 There is this one guy at work I am interested in. He works for the on-site construction that is going on at our work. He comes by here and there and we talk. He compliments me. He shows some interests but I'm not too sure. So, last thursday, he came back to our work. I was on my way to the bathroom when i saw him and said hello. He came up to me and we started to ask what our plans are for the weekend. he said nothing much and ask that maybe we can do something. So he ask for my number and I gave it to him. Well, He still hasn't called. Its been three days now. I dont know if he lost it. Or if he is shy? or What? How long does it take for someone to call back? I heard it takes sometimes week or few days depending how interested they are? I dont know. I got a perfect vibe that he is also interesting in me too. Unless i misinterepreted it. Who knows.
blueeyedme Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Honestly, if he is available and likes you, he would have called right away.
pinkbunnie Posted February 8, 2009 Author Posted February 8, 2009 thats kinda werid .. if he wasnt interested why would he look like he was and ask me out and ask for my # ?!
contented_koala_68 Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Honestly, if he is available and likes you, he would have called right away. Not true. There are too many women out there who label men who immediately call as "desperate", and of course, they don't want anything to do with a desperate man. As a result, we've come up with this retarded "wait a few days before calling" rule to protect us from those labels.
Daligal83 Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Yea I had a guy flirting with me all the time at my gym. I found out he had a girlfriend, but he didn't know that. He asked for my number but never called. Maybe he just wanted me around as a backup? Who knows. If he said he wanted to hangout this weekend and didn't call...I'd probably give him the week to call with a good reason why. If I didn't hear from him, I'd assume he's not interested and move on. I try not to analyze why people do things like that and instead just chalk it up to immaturity I'm glad that I don't have to deal with anymore.
pinkbunnie Posted February 9, 2009 Author Posted February 9, 2009 I never had a problem like tis before. When guys ask for my # they call within few days or sometimes a week or never call. I guess im being a little impatience because I have some interest to this guy. It took him awhile to ask me out and when that happen. I was very happy. But not as happy as i thought i was lol. He just hasn't called!!! I ask him if he was married or had a girlfriend. he said No. He is single. He also ask me too. I said im single too that is how i gave him my number. Since we both are single. Maybe he lost my number. Since i gave him in a small note sticky pad lol. Or he is just busy. But i'l see him again at work. SO we'll see what his excuse is.
pinkbunnie Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 True true. Well he still hasn't called I ask one of my close guy friend about it. Asking ho wlong it takes for a guy to call back after asking for #...he said few days to week. well, im gonna worry too much about it...if he calls he calls. if not then oh wells.
D_Lish Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 3 days seems a long time to wait. Usually and when I've given a guy my number, he has called immediatley after, or an hour or two later. I'd take it that although he'd asked for my number, he may have an interest, but his interest isn't of high level at this point.
D_Lish Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 .or he's married and hasn't managed to find time away from the wife yet to call you.
D_Lish Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I would not go out with someone who asked for my number and called me a week later. It would show me he had a low interest level in me. No one is that busy. A week later, I'd have probably forgotten all about him....let alone be still waiting, lol
GernBlanston Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 It's also entirely possible that he's convinced himself that you're not really interested and were just being friendly when you gave him your number. In which case, he'd see no point in calling simply to be rejected. It would just be awkward.
rustyschackelf Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 As a guy, I typically call the girl within 1 or 2 days after getting the number. I know theres all these stigmas attached to calling too soon, but I don't go in for that. I have always thought that if shes going to make an issue about calling times shes somebody I don't want to be with. However sometimes things do come up and thats why he may not have called yet. I know for me I like to be at home with no distractions when calling a girl for the first time. So don't give up too quickly but if it takes much more than a week you may want to consider not answering the phone.
pinkbunnie Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 Yeah maybe he was busy but it doesnt take this long to call . I mean he is the one who ask to go out sometime and ask for my number? if he wasn't interested he wouldve asked me right? i dunno i find this werid. im not gonna sweat about it. I guess i was a little confused about this whole thing. Why would u ask someones number and not call? haha....
pinkbunnie Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 I would not go out with someone who asked for my number and called me a week later. It would show me he had a low interest level in me. No one is that busy. I agree with you on this. I mean it doesnt take more than a minute to text or call to say hi right? But everyone is different i guess.
