Challenging the 3 Day Period

So I watched some SimplePickup and in one of their videos, they claimed that it's better to text a woman sooner than later. They urged that you should even text/call her later that very same night;the reasoning behind this is that the girl might be too drunk and not even remember you. (assuming night game)

I kind of understand this more than having to obey this 3-day law. In my small experience, I tried different strategies: I texted a girl the very next day and got rejected, but I tried it on another girl and she agreed to go out on a date in the next 2 days. I also tried waiting 4 days before texting a girl and she agreed to go out. I know I have hardly tested this enough to be able to give enough proof for this, but maybe to some girls it just doesn't matter.

At the same time, in three days, she could easily be approached by another guy if she is attractive enough to get approached often. She could easily forget about you (night or day game) and see you as some random guy who is trying to pick up chicks - especially if you didn't get her interest high enough.

What do you guys think? Do you remind yourself to wait 3 days before initiating the text game? Or do you just go with what feels right according to how the approach went?

Depends doesn't it.
I had a date with a girl on Wednesday, set up a second date with her last night which is for next week.
But I work a lot and when I'm working I'm not around, I can only see her on my days off and she knows this, therefore it stands to reason that I'll make plans for my days off in advance, so as not to waste them. If I'd waited 3 days with her it would have only been a day or two before my days off and she may have made plans by then.
The bottom line is if the girl Is attracted and you aren't coming off as desperate or needy then it won't matter whether you wait one day or three, just be natural and itll be fine.

Usually when you get their number you text them a "hello" right then. One of you normally texts the other to make the connection to begin with. It's also a good way to confirm it was a legitimate number. Ask her to text you.

If she writes her number down then text the next day a simple "It was nice to meet you."

If she has high interest waiting three days will not negatively affect you at all. Would probably raise her interest even more due to anticipation and wondering about you.

If she has moderate or low interest then contacting her the next day will likely push her away since she will assume you are needy or have nothing else going on. By waiting you might raise her interest which is what you're going to need to do anyway.

I have noticed girls have very specific time frames for when they want things to happen.

Got number.
Wait a day, setup date.
Wait a date, heavy petting.
Wait a petting session, have sex.
Wait a couple sex sessions, tell her she's the only one.
So on and so fourth.

If you break too far from what she expects she will assume low IL and next you. Treat it like a TV show you wanna watch every couple days. You don't want so much time to pass between episodes that you forget whats going on. But you don't want to have a marathon either until you're sure your viewers love the show and don't mind 12 straight hours of Haunted Collector for example. There is a balance that must exist and must be ramped up with IL.

Mind you there's alot of guys here that will see a girl every couple weeks, crush it and everyone will be fine with that. Personally I prefer a more frequent, familiar relationship with women. The above mentioned suggestion works for girls that want a boyfriend. Not a vet that just wants someone to bang on weekends...
 

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.

You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.
