One of the lessons I learned early is to not wear out online contact with a girl, like constantly pestering her with texts or IMs. Send only enough messages to get her face to face; means less opportunities to mess up the text game. Which is good, because I really haven't learned any "text game" yet.

But what about when you know it will be weeks or more before you'll get a chance to meet up with a girl? How much should you be contacting her in the meantime to keep her interested? Or should you just pop back out of nowhere a month later?
