Phone/Text/IM game

[Finesse]

I was asked recently about the game I use on the phone, text, or IM.

And to tell you the truth it is alomst identical to playing the actual game.
But lets start with some tips.

- Dont rush to respond. Alot of guys (especially if its a fclose prospect) will be over eager to respond and carry on this conversation. The girl WILL pick up on this.

- DO insert pauses in your conversation (like if she replies, and you could respond right now, just wait like 15-30 minutes before you do). The reason you want to do this is because most likely she will be driving around and doing other things, and so 1) it will create what I like to call a "false false time bridge" , You arent actually with her but as she is doing the things she normally does throughout the day you will be more on her mind likewise creating the deeper connection. and 2) it shows that you are a busy person and you aren't just waiting for her responses. Lame!

- Dont apologize for not getting back to her quicker.... (I have heard and seen alot of people do this.) two words for you....... "You pussy".

- DO try and spell things out.... unless shes the annoying type who does the "abbrv txt type crp." If she is doing that, then you are permitted to follow .... however chances are she can't spell... so if you're not looking for brains... GameOn!

Those are just a few... Please answer the poll guys so I know if I should or shouldnt post more things like this later. Feel free to ask me questions.

I didn’t vote because my phone game is weak. I just call and ask if she wants to do so and so with me and make a plan. The day of the date I’ll call and see if we’re still on and if she says no I tell her the stuff I posted in my thread about flakes.

.... soooo.... if your phone game is weak did this help you at all? I'm just kinda confused as to why you posted that?

btw man.... the stuff you posted about flakes is freaking awesome man.

guys.... evaluate what scoundrel says and try and implement it. It's gold.

I don't have a lot of experience with phone game but something I'll do is call and not ask her out. I'll just fluff for like 10 minutes. If she mentions getting together, then I'll say, "hmm, yeah I'd like to. I'm not sure what my schedule is like, but I'll call you on X day and we'll see."

If she doesn't mention getting together, then I'll bring it up. "You're pretty cool, we should hang out sometime. I'm not sure what my schedule is like, but I'll call you on X day and we'll see."

My theory is that calling just for the purpose of asking a girl out is what everyone else does. Calling and not asking her out (and demonstrating that I had no intention of asking her out) makes me different. I break the pattern. Plus, to me it feels much less like I'm chasing.

After giving this some thought, I feel that phone game (text etc.) is good for reforcment only.

If I've built a lot of attraction in her I can wait longer to call. But, if I haven't I'll call sooner. Before she forgets me.
