Did I Overplay Things By Giving A Girl I Met On An Online Dating Service My Number?

If the conversations between you and this girl have been fluid and fun, you may not have overplayed things by giving her your number.

You may have given her your number because you liked the girl that you have gotten to know.

You may feel as though she is a girl that you would really get along with in real life and have some good chemistry with, outside of the online dating service.

Perhaps you envisioned what it would be like to meet her and talk to her in the real world.

You may have given her your number with this in mind.

You did not necessarily overplay things by giving this girl your number as long as you understand that you shouldn’t now start having the expectation that she will initiate a call or text to you at that number.

Girls will often want the guy to be the one who contacts them first.

If you gave her your number with the expectation that she will call you first, you may want to rethink that.

There is a good chance that she won’t do that.

If you were the one who volunteered your number to her and she never asked for it or gave you hers, there is a good chance that she isn’t going to use that number to contact you first.

This is why you need to make sure that you don’t get your hopes up over giving this girl that you met on an online dating service your number.

Try not to have any expectations of her at this time.

Continue corresponding with her on the online dating service with the same kind of energy that you have in the past.

Don’t bring up the fact that you gave her your number.

You may be tempted to do so because by that point you may have yet received a call or text from her.

However, don’t do that.

You will overplay things with her if you put her in a position where she has to explain herself to you.

You would only make her feel that much more pressure to initiate a call or text to your number when she may not be willing to do so.

This may lead her to start avoiding chatting with you on the online dating service because she will be worried that you will ask her about calling or texting your number.

If you continue to correspond with her on the online dating service and she is responding like she has always done, this is another indicator that you most likely didn’t overplay things by giving her your number.

By maintaining consistent communication with you on the online dating service, she may be indicating that she does like you but she is more comfortable communicating with you through the online dating service, for now.

She may not want to take communication to a different medium at this time.

It doesn’t mean that taking communication to another medium will never happen.

However, for now, she may only want to keep it restricted to the online dating service until she gets comfortable enough with you that she is perhaps tempted to contact you via your number.

This is why you should be careful not to have any lofty expectations of receiving a call or text from her to your number.

This may not happen for a while, if ever.

Again, understand that a girl will typically not want to be the one to initiate a call or text to a guy.

She would rather the guy be the chaser and not her.

If you have been communicating with this girl for a good amount of time on the online dating service and you want to meet her, it may be best to just ask her out directly than hope that she will initiate a call or text to your number.

This may actually be what she would prefer that you do.

This way, she isn’t put in a position where she feels unwanted pressure to initiate a call or text to your number.
