When is it ok for a girl to call a guy she likes?
Posted By: Dip

Re: girls calling guys - 06/14/06 08:19 PM

girls can call first, but dont call him again until he calls you, unless you knwo he is expecting you to call and you wont come off as overbearing or desperate

Re: girls calling guys - 06/14/06 08:20 PM

I agree with Dip, presumably, I wouldn't have his phone number if he wasn't interested.

I'm sure glad that a girl 13 years ago had the courage to make the first three calls to me. Guess I was either gutless, clueless or some combination of both. But nine years of wonderful marriage later it is a good thing that she did!

Re: girls calling guys - 06/14/06 08:30 PM

I thought girls and guys were supposed to be equals?

Just freaking call! You won't come off as overbearing of desperate if you call more than once. Heck, if he calls you every time, does that make him overbearing or desperate?

It's much more direct that staring at someone for 4 seconds!!

I've come to the conclusion that if I want to call a guy, or tell him how I feel, I'm going to just do it. If he doesn't like it....screw it!! Don't want someone that's going to hold an interpreted "too quick" call over my head! Just not worth my time!

Worked quite nicely with my bf!! Called him 2 hrs after we met....he loved it!

Wow, I guess I must be more old school than I thought. Maybe thats why Im still single. No actually, I made the first move once and I wont do it again. I wont let my daughter call her boyfriend unless he has called first. My vote was only 2%. Thats bad.....

Re: girls calling guys - 06/14/06 08:46 PM

Guess in order for her to call.. she'd have to be given his number right... that is... unless she was the stalker type and had her own means of knowing this type of thing...

I made the first call to my husband. It took an absurd amount of thought before I did, though.

Assuming he gave her his number... that'd be a sign then that he'd be interested in hearing from her... right?

My mother proved to me when I was young that not only did the exterior body parts look different between woman and men, but women also had cerebral differences as well. Sure, guys might be better at math, but not many of us have invisible eyes in the back of our heads, can tell whenever someone lies to them, and can tell when we are thinking about doing something wrong!

So, I figure surely the female psychic abilities go as far as instinctively knowing the phone number of any guy they are interested in, or at least being able to make 4 seconds worth of eye contact, and asking a question, you know, like "Can I have your number, hotstuff?"

I was the one who made the first contact with my husband. However, instead of calling, I sent him an email. I remember I asked him if he would want to get together to watch NCAA basketball sometime. He called me a few days later...apparently there is a 3 day rule...and we have been together ever since.

I have been out of the "game" for awhile, but I find it hard to believe this question would even have to be asked anymore. I loved it any time I would be fortunate enough to have a girl make the first call.

Re: girls calling guys - 06/15/06 02:00 PM

I agree with ThatGirl.

My daughter is 16 years old and she will not call a guy unless he has made contact (phone contact, not physical contact)first.

I remember when my son was 12 years old and girls would call him. They would try and schedule meetings at the movies or mall. Often times these girls were considered aggressive and teases.

As a teenager, I don't want my daughter to be that desperate for male companionship. Youth are quick to place labels on their peers. Simply put, a girl that is a tease and aggressor often has a label that is not becoming.

I may be old-fashioned, but that is how I see it.

Re: girls calling guys - 06/15/06 04:31 PM

I don't see why a girl shouldn't call a guy. When I was single I never hesitated to do the asking. I figured if a guy was turned off by my initiative, he probably wasn't looking for a relationship with an equal and I was better off without him. Also, since I knew how it felt to take the risk, and sometimes get turned down, I was never cruel to guys either.

So are you saying women shouldn't be equal to men? That they should not only refrain from calling men first, but should also be treated as subordinates in the workplace?

No, but as a guy who normally can't read a signal to tell him a woman is interested any better than I can read a Haiku written in Japanese, I get so frustrated by women who never take the first step, expecting men to be responsible for this, yet want equal rights in everything else!

Next we will hear the argument that women should get equal pay for the same job, but not be at all responsible for any expenses incurred during the dating period....
Posted By: Search_Me

Re: girls calling guys - 06/15/06 06:08 PM

About expense incurred in the dating process... this is just my thoughts.. and mine alone..

I've never understood why women will take a man for everything they think they can get their hands on... meaning.. if ya go out to dinner... why do ya have to order the most expensive menu item... knowing ya might not really like it... I mean heck... maybe I was raised different.... but I was taught... if ya wouldn't go into the resturant and order the menu item and pay for it yourself... then ya should carry those same habits into the dating world. So.. if I'm not gonna pay $15.00 for a plate when I'm by myself.. then I'm sure not gonna expect the guy to do it.

Another thing... I never... never... go out on a date without taking more than enough money. Never know what might happen. Had a friend who was out on a date and the guy didn't have enough money for both of them.. and then decided to tell her to pay for her own.

Maybe I'm wrong.. but I've never learned to take the guy for all he had like most women do these days.

Hmm.. maybe why I'm still single...

Its my job, BF, to give you a hard time. My thoughts are women rights are they should NOT be police officers, nor firemen, nor any other man handling job that requires strength that women just simply do not have. But dont step all over us either just because we are women. If I work too to help pay the bills, by golly my husbnad can help take care of the children. If I dont work, then its the womans job.

Im sure this post will open a can of worms with those who believe in equal rights, but remember, this is merely MY OPINION only.

Hmmmmm....I've been thinking about forwarding this thread to Ms. Manners....

Each person, man or woman, has different comfort levels in approaching someone they are interested in....not taking in to account old or new "values".....if you, as an individual man or woman, feel comfortable making the first contact....make it....if you don't then don't....it's strictly an individual's choice....

I think a woman should and can work any job she desires, just as any man would do. I do not believe in "woman's work" or "man's work". That's why I've killed spiders and my husband has changed diapers. Women can be police officers, firefigthers and members of the armed forces. Men can be nurses, teachers, and stay-at-home full-time caregivers.

Life is too short to play games. If you like someone, the best way to let them know is to tell them.

I remember when my son was 12 years old and girls would call him. They would try and schedule meetings at the movies or mall. Often times these girls were considered aggressive and teases.

As a teenager, I don't want my daughter to be that desperate for male companionship. Youth are quick to place labels on their peers. Simply put, a girl that is a tease and aggressor often has a label that is not becoming.

I may be old-fashioned, but that is how I see it.



Just because a woman calls/emails/talks to a guy first does not automatically make her desperate, aggressive, or a tease. In my case, I was confident in myself. I knew my husband was attracted to me but he was afraid I wouldn't give a guy like him the time of day. So, I decided to put him out of his misery and ask HIM out. See? Women can be extremely kind when making that first move.

Maybe they're abiding by the requirements of 226.15 and 226.23....... .....if you don't call back and cancel your request by midnight of the 3rd day then they know it's OK to call you back....



Dan, You really need a break. You probably whisper sweet regulations in a girl's ear instead of sweet nothings.

YES YES YES YES YES! GOOD FOR YOU IZZO! Seriously, why should men always be the ones to make the first move? Are we always desperate, aggressive or a tease when we call?

I also don't understand why some men and women expect men to pay for everything while dating. My husband and I switched off paying for dinner when we were dating. He had a hard time getting used to it at first, but I felt that I was perfectly capable of helping out.

Hey Kara, can you talk to the young lady I'm dating and let her know that works? I made the mistake of paying for dinner the first time when went out, and ever since, I think she expects it. I don't want to seem cheap by suggesting she join in now!

Wish I could help! Not sure how you could get out of always paying unless you are just honest with her...and that depends on how serious the relationship is!
