Is texting the same as calling when it comes to the 3 day rule?

Reason y im asking: Met the perfect guy at a party on fri. I went and tlked to him, he asked to dance, we talked all night. He texted me sat night (around 10). I didn't have texting in my plan (just got it 2 days ago). I didn't want to text back, or call, idk, thought i'd wait and my friends thought it would be a good idea. I was up late till 4am hanging out w/ friends, woke up @ noon. called him sun and didnt get him. i added him on face book, he wrote me, i wrote back. i think i wrote something lame. he didn't call that night (but of course we talked that day). monday night i txted him to ask what he was up to, he txted back and asked the same. after i texted he didnt reply. tues and now wed-no call. will he call thurs to make plans? he knows im interested, i asked for his # and he took mine. he aked if i had a bf and txted me the next night so- he likes me.but will he give up or something and think its not worth it? idk... what to do? am i overreacting?[btw im a freshman in college]

No. A text message is extremely passive-agressive; a one-way conversation used to avoid the embarassment of rejection.





Dude has no guts.
Reply:I dont think so. But you'd want to call b4 you text.
Reply:i am a freshman in college also..i hateee games but unfortunately this is what we have to deal with..i think he is def. interested and its not a bad idea to call/text him obv. dont call him more than once or text him more than once when he doesnt answer...just be yourself and dont worry so much i guess..that is some mistakes i have made is i just worry too much..be yourself as cliche as it sounds and just go with it...and it will help
Reply:Sounds like hes an idiot. Just let him go. Guys suck, and dont give it up anymore if you did. He took you, tricked you, and will show up when he is good and ready to take from you again. So let it and him go, and if your smart...RUN in the other direction. Its not worth it. Keep getting your education in order so you will never have to *depend on anyone. Women have died for you to have the right to go to college. So do well sweety. Take Care.-Rachel.

Forget the rules and just use common sense. Do what makes you feel comfortable.





I do think texting is less intrusive than a phone call. He can text in class or other situations where he might not be able to answer the phone. A simple message saying hello and hope things are well with you is enough to let him know you are interested..





Don't chase this guy, that will get you nowhere. If you don't get a response, or he doesn't contact you, just chalk it up to a fun night with a cool person. There are plenty more men out there, and he might not be the one for you.
Reply:Wait...He might not be interested don't be over aggressive. He knows your around don't force anything.
Reply:Yeah, I think any contact counts in the 3 day rule.
Reply:Forget the rules. Do what you feel.
