I had to learn the hard way that you only text bitches for logistics. They will literally pretend to be interested in you, use you for all your nonsexual attention, and ghost you whenever you ask for the date. Also, texting them too soon turns them off. Basic shit, I know.

But here's a newbie question. So say I approach a girl, and get her number. I wait 5 days to text her. I set the date.

How do you minimize flakes when the only interaction you've really had is that approach? Should I call instead? It seems like you'd be liable to get flaked on since you haven't interacted that much except for that initial approach.

Sorry if this is a dumb noob question.
