I'm a pretty easy going person. On top of that I kinda learned to control my emotions. So for example if a particular girl I'm after refuses to go out for a drink with me I genuinely don't get upset over it. I act cool as if she will be the one missing out and just move on to another girl. I then don't ring her for a week or two making it look like I'm not that bothered with her. Which is usually the case anyway. Then when I do ring her up again I sound happy, as if nothing happened and just say I was busy or whatever. Sometimes this works, sometimes it does not. Sometimes I can ring a girl up at 4 in the morning after not speaking to her for a month and she will come over or alternatively get a "WTF who are you?!" type of response. I was just thinking, maybe this is not the best game. Should I be more passionate and stay in contact more or is it a good idea to keep cool and give them a break now and then? For how long? A few days, week, month?

-edit-

Also phone calls/texts. Is it a good idea to reply/call her back straight away? I sometimes give it a few hours to a day depending on the urgency etc.
