Ok so if you're a guy or you've had experience w/this sort of thing, I'd like to understand the reasoning behind it. Why wait 3 days? It's been my experience that when I meet a guy and we really hit it off and he asks for my number, he always waits 3 days before calling... even when I know I really like the guy and I know he really likes me... So why do they wait?? Please, if you're a guy, please just be completely honest in your response...thanks

It's just the daaamnnn rule of the game! You just wait!!! Guys want to play it cool. They NEVER..hardly ever, call the night/day you give them your number. It's just not heard of unless he is desparate.
Just like girls, guys like to think it over or talk to over with one of their friends. And just like girls, guys like the chase. they know that three days will kill us. three days is not too long and it's not too short of a time frame. It's just the perfect amount of time to make us ladies go crazy, and usually by then, you're thinking about him so much that you've got to have him.

I usually don't wait. I usually call the next day to tell them I had a really good time with them and would like to go out again. In the real world, sort of, men will wait because that is how they operate. I can understand why that might be a little crazy, but it takes a few days for guys to build up defense mechanisms.

Watch the movie, "Swingers"
it explains it all, and Why.
cuz of this movie, every guy thinks there has to be this rule of when to call chicks. (3 days)
but acually, the truth is, it all depends on the situation.
If a girl really likes me and shes an 8. then ill wait 2-3 days to call.
But if shes a 10 then ill call her the next day, cuz the longer i wait to call, the more she will not remember who i am. Plus 10's are getting hit on 24/7. so, waiting to call is stupid. she'll meet someone else and you'll have lost your chance.
Other rules guys use
-Dont call on FRI. and SAT. (girls are useally busy)
-call on Sunday. (Cuz thats when its most likely that a girl will pick up)
-tell a girl what time your gonna call, then call 1-2 hours late.(shows not needy)
-Hang up the phone first and on a high note.(leaves the girl wanting more)
Oh yeah, guys with no game, dont know these rules.

i do not imagine there is a few thing incorrect with it. i do not understand why each human being is announcing this is undesirable to do this. an excellent type of adult males imagine calling an afternoon or some hours after asking a woman out is performing too keen. i'm no longer speaking for all ladies, yet i'm constructive there are plenty that could be grew to grow to be off by using a guy it truly is too keen. i do not personally imagine there is a few thing incorrect with calling after an afternoon, yet i imagine an excellent type of adult males have the idea this is sensible to attend so that they don't seem too keen. there is not any longer some thing incorrect with that. and that i imagine an excellent type of adult males do wait, do not enable that impact your opinion of this guy like each human being else is announcing

Alot of guys are clueless and get hung up on stupid games and rules like the 3-day rule. Personally, I dont like all those games. If I like the guy too, I usually cant wait 3 days to talk to him. By that time, Im thinking he's not as interested in me.

its all a game that most like guys to play. they want to it to appear that there is much more going on in their lives. as for myself, i never let wait. i never want the girl i am interested in to get the wrong idea. i always call the next day or night so that she knows i have been thinking about her and can't wait to hear her voice again

Because guys want to play it cool. They don't want to seem super excited to see you again because they think that you might think that they are wusses who do not have sufficient human contact and are dying to meet a specimen of the female species. Calling a few hours after meeting a girl would immediately put the the certified red stamp of "desperate" on a guys forehead. They want to seem laid back, relaxed, and unfocused on their dating.

it makes it look as if the guy isn't as interested which i guess in some cases works because they still get the girl. Also the girl will want him to call just a little bit more or so i hear.

If you call too quickly, the girl thinks your too eager and she won't want to date you again. If you wait more than 3 days, she'll think you don't like her and she won't want to date you again. 3 days is just about right.
