one easy way to avoid games:
Give these girls CLEAR instructions. makes your life a lot more simple and they will appreciate it. This goes for any stage (from the initial contact to when you're years deep in the relationship). When you meet a girl and exchange numbers with her, if you feel like calling/texting her first, when you get the number tell her straight up "I will text you/call you tonight/tomorrow/whenever). This way there is no waiting game, no ambiguity, no "I'll make him chase me" game. You just gave her clear instructions and you follow through. either she answers your call/replies to your text or she doesn't. If she doesn't, automatic bushes. As simple as that. Don't chase, don't play the waiting game. Most importantly, don't play her game. She either cooperates or she doesn't. if she calls you the next day or days later and gives you an excuse, go with your gut feeling. Don't stress over girls. cause while you're stressing, they're laughing at you.
