I agree with ignoring her, it will drive her nuts.

After all, I'm supposed to be out with another woman right now, because when this one didn't answer my call, I called up my other plate, and we are out having fun right now.

I know this isn't reality, but it should be. You know what I mean?
It's not about her. It's about you. When you're watching out for what's best for you, that's what's attractive. Girls like a guy who doesn't put up with crap.

When you call a girl and leave a v/m, but instead of returning your call, she sends you a text 2 hours later saying "sorry I missed your call, how are you?"

How do you act in that situation?
How would you act? There is nothing to really to act about. If she missed your call big deal. She was probably busy. She noticed you called and got back to you right? But, through a txt message...

So, you can either call her back or respond to her text.

Unless, she wants to text you instead of calling because of other guys in the background. and doesn't want you to hear them. :rolleyes:

IMO girls just like texting instead of calling.

Yeah, and I have a feeling if I reply to her text with something gay and AFC like most guys do:

"I'm fine how are you?"

It won't go over too well.

You went through the effort to call her, but she hasn't reciprocated. If she was truly sorry, she would really show it. So, let her show you.

Well, at least I got a text reply. It's better than nothing at all.

And she just texted me again saying she's been busy "hanging out with her fam" all day.

So I can't say she has not recriprocated at all.

I'm just not going to fall into the text trap with another female. They all want to make cell phone texting the main method of communicating, and I can't take it anymore.
 

Don't always be the one putting yourself out for her. Don't always be the one putting all the effort and work into the relationship. Let her, and expect her, to treat you as well as you treat her, and to improve the quality of your life.

That's a good point. If I call my girlfriend and she missed my call she always calls me back.

The difference here is she is not my girlfriend. We have been on one date.

OK I can dig that.... but how would you reply to this and not sound AFC?

After all we are supposed to be busy men not waiting around and replying to text messages like a high school girl.

Look how crazy dudes on this site are getting over a text not being returned
uh huh... and after what???? Just FIVE hours? Oh my! The sky is falling. Sell everything! Put the kids in the lifeboat! Sound the alarm!

Yeah, yeah... watch: he'll say "well, you see, the thing is, she was in the habit of returning my calls promptly so this stood out as unusual"...

The REAL answer is "Have Patience".

instead of returning your call, she sends you a text 2 hours later saying "sorry I missed your call, how are you?"
It's taken me a while, but I think I cracked the woman-code for what "how are you" means when they say that. If I'm correct, it may mean: "I don't know where I stand with you, so I'm testing the waters and seeing if I can engage you so I may determine where things are at with us."

Well, I'm going through my notes and devising a reply that is sure to make her laugh out loud.

The only thing you can do when women throw you a curveball, is to make them laugh. If you can do that, you are in. :up:

Personally I'm not a fan of text messaging. You can't tell things over a text message like emotion, sarcasm, and so forth.

Besides, you don't want to be too accessible. Scarcity helps create value.

NOTES??!?!? Get with it man. It's not about her, it's about you. Is she winning you over? Really? What the heck is she doing to deserve your attention? Once you figure out what that question really means, you're on track to being a Don Juan. You are the prize, not her. She hasn't earned anything from you, and she knows it. If you do anything short of letting her earn you, then she'll know exactly what type of AVERAGE FRUSTRATED CHUMP you are.

She's been chasing me since day one, because I make her laugh.

Dude, don't let a woman get the best of you. The last thing you should worry about is whether a woman has texted you back or not. If you were the prize (or the catch) you would look at the situation totally differently. You'd have so much going for you that you wouldn't let her phase you.

Where is your strength? Are you a man or a wimp. Do you let other people's action control your thoughts and emotions or do you control them? Once you've given her the power that you're actually giving her now, she'll be so over you and swinging to the next branch.

This woman has her own life, and she will get back to you, but until then you can't let her know that is getting to you. In fact, it shouldn't be getting to you. You need to look deep inside yourself and find out why your feeling like this. There is a deeper issue you need to work out with yourself, and she's not to blame.
Yes everything you say is correct Mavrick. Even though I've really improved myself over the last few months there was still doubts when I didn't receive a message. Used to that happening before but I have other plates I'm spinning at the moment so it wouldn't have hit me too bad.

The date went very well because for the first time it was clear to me I had to have a higher value mindset and thats what I had on the date.

She certainly won't be getting my power! I've made that mistake a few times but never again. :up:
