Just wondering if anyone knew of any strategies for 'recycling old numbers' - i.e., recycling old numbers on your cell phone you haven't called in a while - # closes that have flaked, or that you never got together with for some reason.
Recycling old numbers
- Thread starter da_hunter
- Start date
I sent this txt out to a girl I was emailing w from the personals for a while. We never got together but we were sort of making vague plans. I'm not sure who lost interest - I started to see this one girl a lot, and I stopped contacting her. She never bothered to follow up with me either.
'just wanted 2 say hi - hope yall had a great holiday, give me a call sometime when you have a chance'
she texted back 'who is this? number doesn't show up'
i reply 'da_hunter - if i surprised u and u do not want to hear from me i apologize. i just sent a txt to cool people on my phone i haven't talked to in a while'
she texts back 'no worries! hope you had a great holiday!'
I'm wondering if I can do the same thing with a girl I # closed in August but flaked.

a few that ive called had boyfriends by then, most of them were like 6 months. I tried to track down one girl that i never hooked up with, just dated a few times, and it was about 4 years. Turns out while i was being tortured by a prude for 3 years, she became a meth head. Nice. She was fukkin hot too. Sad.
yea, it can work. only if they remember you or u stand out in some way. i've gone as long as two months without talking to a girl after a while, and when i decide to hit them up again, they are as open and interested as they ever were.da_hunter said:
if they say,"who is this" than forget it, they dont remember you or hold u in high enough regard to keep ur number in the first place. u cant rebuit attraction with someone who u doesnt remember you.
it helps if u talked to them a couples times or have had something going with them at least before u try to recycle the number, they remember u more that way, instead of if u got the number and never called.
Try this.
"Hi Cleopatra this is Jay Jay. I have your number in my phone but the funny thing is I don't know any Cleopatras. What is your number doing in my phone?"
"Jay Jay, its meeeeeeee."
I've seen my boy *** pull that off with a girl he hadn't spoken to in over a year...
but then again I have walked into parties with him and watch him throw a girl he has never met over his shoulder without saying a word, take her into a room and **** her brains out and she loved him for it.
I've sat by his side when he said to a 10, "blow my friend" (not me) and shes said "anything for you ***."
So what works for *** doesn't work for everyone.
But you might as well give it a go.
