How easy is it to make a woman’s day?

[Anonymous]

I congratulated a woman who just achieved a milestone in her life by leaving a voicemail. I have done this for her birthday, her last day of school, and now graduation (all voicemails rather than texts and she replied to all). I got told that I made her day (it included this emoji “☺️”) and she thanked me for being so thoughtful and supportive. I should note I’m interested in her but I’m not going to force it. I’m wondering how easy it is to make a woman happy with what a man does.

While it is a nice gesture to send her voicemails on multiple occasions, you also give her clear signs that you are interested in her. Why else would anyone leave voicemails on a regular basis? Personally, I would be suspicious of that person.

If you leave a voicemail on one occasion, then it is sufficient but if you start to find excuses to send them on multiple occasions, then it becomes obvious that you are after something. This is just simple basic psychology.

However, it is nice to get voicemail rather than just texts. Some people are very sensible to those kind of gestures.

Thanks for the MHO

That is a nice gesture you did. I am sure she was happy. As far as how easy it is to make a woman's day? That depends on the day. We have bad ones and then really bad ones. We have bad days like everyone. if you are true to a girl and want to make her happy, I'm sure that you will. It is about listening to her mood.

Most of our communication is text based. Hard to tell in that case. That’s why emojis are essential.

Suuuuuper hard to tell from emojis. They mean different things to different people. Can I suggest talking on the phone? Much better chance figuring that out on a call.

[Asker]

I try calling and goes to voicemail but we text later on which is fine. That’s the thing.

Busy maybe? I personally don't turn my phone off but that is just me.

[Asker]

It’s because she’s busy. I made a joke after the message saying that she can call me if she wants before I go on my trip to Italy, otherwise next time she’ll hear my voice is in the fall for the semester or if we meet up after my trip.

You have your answer then. Hey! Good luck in Italy! Sounds amazing. I was there one time with family. Enjoy.

[Asker]

Any recommendations as to where to go? Going for a month for school! Lots of free time it seems!

Okay so my advice is to see if she wants to do something causal. You can feel it out from there. Like ask her to lunch or something.

PS. still jelly you are going to Italy

[Asker]

I meant in Rome. Thinking about getting something for her and my friends potentially.

That's so cool. Get something for me lol. I was in Venice years ago with fam.

[Asker]

Any recommendations as to where to go and shop or eat?

[_Maya_]

In Rome? Never been. I have a sure shot in Venice.

Thanks for most helpful! Let me know if you want that Venice food suggestion.

Flowers will do for me. A compliment will do. Food will do for me.

At least you left a voicemail and not just another useless text.

I see texting as a wimps way out of it. By leaving a voicemail it shows that I care more (at least in my eyes). It’s like asking someone out. I’d rather do it on the phone with the other person if I can’t do it in person than doing it over text. The difference between a beta and an alpha.
