When do I follow up?

[Anonymous]

Ha so damn. I getting off the bus and this chick gets off with me, hands me a note. It's her number. We chat it up a bit, and go different ways, her to work, me to therapy. Now I send her a quick text,"Hey its so and so". Now the question is... When do I follow up? She's a very strong but shy girl. Like it's noticeable she a go getter, and I'm sure she'd appreciate the gesture of hitting her up. But when? Or... Do i pass by her work in a day or two or three and say hi while grabbing something? by the way she hasn't sent a text back... Such confoos... Much debate... Send halp

Hit her up tonight

Pass by her work in time

Something else

It was just a dream, Jack, go back to Halloween town lol

Invite her to an upcoming show even tho i iz broke

Accept the fact of Forever Alone

How about you dial that number and see if she answers the phone. If she does have a conversation just like you had after stepping off the bus. If she does answer after your conversation ask her if she'd like to go out on a real date

Thissss is... Actually a surprisingly good idea... Imma see if this'll work on Friday evening. Honestly too chicken shit to try it tonight

Since she hasn’t responded to the first text, wait two days until texting her, asking if she wants to go get coffee or something small

[Asker]

See that was what I was thinking... That seems like the legit thing to do, but isn't that a bit too predictable? The whole wait a day or two? I don't want to be that guy who pretends to be uninterested but also... play it smooth...

[Hananapine61]

Well.. okay. Wait and respond until she does. But don’t respond immediately, wait maybe 30 mins-hour and then respond.

[Hananapine61]

Then after convo gets going you can respond ASAP

I love your enthusiasm, sweetheart but it just reminds me of my highschool days. Is there no other way? Then again the tried and true is pretty darn handy... Ugh choices lol

[Hananapine61]

Lmao I don't know bro, you base it off the vibes you got from that initial meet and you can gauge it. If she seems worth it for the long run then hit her up rn. If she seems like a fun fling for a few months then wait

[Asker]

Thats it right there! Like no I don't want this to be like any other casual fling. I think I will... Arrrrgghhhh wish me luck and hope to not die heree we gooo brb I'll let you know how it goes

[Hananapine61]
