Voicemail!
Voicemail was invented by the women to stave off the advances of the male!
I mean you get her number, sometimes at great cost, and then you show the decency to call her, and guess what, it rings and rings and rings. Now comes the dilemma, what do you do? Do you hang up? 'cause if you hang up then you're just chicken. Besides, you can't call and hang up like more then two or three times.
You don't want to talk to the voice mail, believe me, you don't, because then it becomes up to her, and you become easily forgotten. But alas, you are trapped in a corner with now way out, you have to talk to the voice mail. So you do, you don't make a good impression, because like a fool, once again, you did not prepare for this. So you give it your best shot knowing that she's probably going to ignore it anyway...
I mean if she actually spoke to you then it would be better, it's easier to reject just a voice rather than the actual other person on the end of the line.
Bottom line, try and avoid talking to the voice mail, and if you have to take the plunge, make sure you're prepared. You have to make such an impression that she can't resist phoning back. The hard lesson I learned by these experiences is that if you get her voice just be friendly, don't suggest any plans, just say hi, nice to see you the other day wa wa wa... Keep the conversation open so you can phone again. You're just establishing the lines of communication at this stage...
Okay, after some consultation with a lady friend, I've discovered some quite important bits of information and have come up with a strategy...
She says that when you get the voice mail, say on the first phone call, be polite and courteous and what not, but make sure you ask her to phone you back. If you don't ask, she won't call you back!
She also says that after just one call, why should she call you back. You're going to have to work a little harder than that to gain her attention. She's testing you to see if you really mean business or not. She wants to know if she's just some arbitrary girl you're looking to get some kicks out of, or whether she's actually a preferred one. On Oprah they were discussing this and the hierarchy for this one guy was "Dream Team", "Associates" and "Don't Answer". She wants to know if she's on the Dream Team, and not just an "associate".
Then, after the fourth or fifth call with still no response, either just drop it altogether, or just tell her that if she doesn't want to talk to you then she should just tell you and you'll stop calling. Challenge her to be open and honest about it. You'll accept whatever her wishes are.
