His direction is that phones are for setting dates and not meant for chit chatting. When he texts G he just needs to ask her out vs sending these meaningless messages that dont really go any where and is obviously turning G off.
Yeah, that was my point so I'm glad you confirmed it. Granted, I didn't read his whole book, but I did read some of it when all of that discussion was ensuing and I thought I remembered him (the coach) advocating and a lot of you standing by the assertion that the phone (calling and texting) was basically a tool for setting dates and maybe just very occasionally talking with a purpose (my words, not the coach's). It struck me then and it strikes me now in G's situation that some women prefer more idle chit chat and are ok with more texting, but still want texting with a purpose (i.e. getting to know each other and asking for dates). I can see why G is turned off by the randomness and the limited texting and not being asked out again when the guy is saying that he enjoyed it. I don't think this guy is necessarily following the coach's advice, because I don't think his texts have much purpose, but the minimal communication does seem to be something coach advocates so that is why I said I felt like I was missing something after reading LH's response.
I do agree with both you of you, J9 and LH, that G has a couple of options here. Fish or cut bait comes to mind. LOL
