Who should call or text first: You or your crush?

  • The Real Deal: Why guys hate shopping
This guy and I exchanged numbers. So what’s next? Do we set up a date? Who sets it up?
 
Dave: Traditionalists say the guy should take the initiative. With me, there’s no place for tradition when it comes to dating. It leads to a bunch of poor, confused souls sitting around trying to figure out what they’re supposed to do, rather than what they want to do. Since every situation is different, there’s no proper next step. If you want to go out with him and feel comfortable making the first call (or text), go ahead. He must want to go out with you since he gave you his number. Note: If you call and the greeting is, “Domino’s. May I take your order?” you have a problem.
 
Bill: Hey, this isn’t The Rules for Dating, you know. Dave and I could set up the date, but then you’d have to buy us dinner—and you don’t wanna do that. Unless you’re both in the business of updating the phone book, then I’d say you probably exchanged numbers because you want to see each other socially. If the guy is formal and into dating etiquette, then he should probably call. If he’s a low-key guy who likes and respects you, he’d probably love you to call him. Ask yourself, “If there were no societal expectations, what would I feel natural doing?” Then do it!

ok so i have my crush's number and stuff. well whenever we text, im ALWAYS the one who texts first. i feel desperate and awkward because he never seems to want to text me cuz he never texts me in the first place. and mostly, when i text him, he doesnt even reply. i really need help!! what do i do?




Hey girl, it sounds like he's just not interested in you ... at least for the moment. I wouldn't text him (let him initiate this time) but rather try talking in person with him and striking a friendship there instead. Remember, relationships are two-way streets. He has to work at it too for it to go anywhere.

Hey girls!
Need advice about absolutely anything? Got a prob you're embarrassed to go to other people about? Feeling the need to vent about the awful day you just had or anything else and always get a supportive response? That's what I'm here for I absolutely love helping you all by giving top notch advice on any subject under the sun. Seriously ask me about anything....I mean the worst I can say is that I can't answer your question right?! I promise not to judge you and to give each question my undivided attention and thought.
I also give you my honest word that I will never tell you what you want to hear and instead will always tell you the truth and my HONEST opinion about everything.

So if you need advice (or just want a friend to talk too...I <3 meeting new people on here it's SO fun!!) don't hesitate to comment on my profile...it's just a click away<3

xoxo,
maggie183<3

Hi! So I'm a sophomore in high school and basically homecoming is coming up and people have already started asking. My friends think me and this freshman have a "thing" going on. Honestly I like him and I'm pretty sure he likes me. Anyway would it be considered weird if I dated a freshman. I don't this kind of seems like a stupid question. Technically, I am young for my grade and could be a freshman. This freshman guy and I are only 6 months apart in age. Basically, would it be weird of normal for me to date a younger guy? Thanks! Laughing




Hey girl, it wouldn't be weird at all! You're not even a year apart. Don't let the class ranks intimidate you. You'd be just fine!

xoxo
