After getting her number, you should wait 4–5 days before texting her. This shows that you are not desperate. A busy guy who is popular with women does not have time to chit chat besides face-to-face. Most guys will text the same day, then continue exchanging texts for days. What we say is only 7% of communication. The rest is body language and tonality, and she cannot see either from the text. Ok, let’s get back to texting. The whole purpose of texting is to get a woman out on a date in the least texts possible.
You: “Hi, how has your week been?”
Her: “Hi, it’s good. Today is busy with meetings though and my work is not getting done.”
You: “Yea, meetings tend to derail you off-track. Are you free on Wednesday at 7 pm?” (Note: show empathy, but keep to your purpose of getting a date commitment.”
Her: “I should be free then.”
You: “Sounds good. Let’s meet at 7 pm on Wednesday. I will text the place then.” (Do not give location right away. It makes her wonder where you are going to take her. And plus it’s a flake-defense move. You text her the day of the date, about 5 hours before, and tell her the place. If she does not reply, the date is off. You saved yourself time and money.”
