Dating: A Tip for the First Phone Call

EDITOR'S NOTE - Also see our previous article entitled, 'The First Phone Call: Do I Leave A Message?'

********
Here is a quick, yet subtle tip for the first time you call a woman. When she answers the phone, say, “Hi Jessica, it's Alexander.” Then stop talking and listen to her response.

Do NOT say, “Hi, it’s Alexander from [Match.com, the bar last Friday, etc].” You don’t work for Match, do you? And even if you did, this is not a business call.

The point here is that you are testing out the interest level of the woman you are calling. If she likes you, she is GOING to know who you are. You don’t need to say where you are from. It's goofy and it shows a lack of confidence on your part.

However, if she hesitates or replies with something along the lines of, “Alexander? I'm sorry... where do I know you from?”, then you are FINISHED. Don’t bother trying to remind her who you are. She either has low interest in you or she is giving her phone number out to half the city. Either way, cut your losses and move on.

Hey guys, you juggle multiple women, maybe we are juggling multiple guys. It can get tough to remember everyone, cut us some slack.
XOXOXO
