I dislike text interactions w/ girls so I need the advice of those more experienced/skilled w/ that type of game.

Texted a girl a few days ago to see if she wanted to hang out tonight (Thursday). No response so I assume she is a write-off. She ends up responding this morning, which annoys me, apologizing and asking what time I'm done with work. i would normally just ignore but given that I would still like to

inside of her ASAP, what is the proper response here?

Call her. Don't text.

How many times do people on this forum need to be told to man-up and call a girl instead of text?

If you PM, the percentage rises to 90%.

I think a lot of people don't like calling because they're afraid of instant rejection. Also, if you call and they don't pick up, you're SOL.

People don't call, because they are pussies. It's pretty simple.

Call her and put her on the spot. Texts are a waste of time unless you have her hooked and it's purely logistics.

if she is the texting type she may be put off by a call or find it too aggresive in which case you are shooting yourself in the foot with an unexpected call.

im not the texting generation, but i know from my younger brothers if you want to get it on with those type, you best learn quick how to play the texting/sexting game

I've never texted a girl while I was sober. the drunk texts have never worked out in my favour.
