Hi! I'm very worried that I was recently too forward with a match that I am very interested in. He started open communication with me and after about two weeks I felt like I have gotten to know as much as I could through typing and it was time to move on to the next level (in my case a phone call). I have him a hint. I said "I hope I get to TALK to you soon." He sent me a message and said "haha, give me a call and then his number." I felt that since I asked for it, that I should make the first step to communicate so I texted with him for a bit last night. This is all new to me and I am a shy person, do you think I was being too forward with him? Do you think I should wait for him to contact me again?

I think if you were being too forward with him, he wouldn't have given you his phone number. I wouldn't have texted, though; I would have gone ahead and called him since you said you wanted to TALK to him soon. I think he probably gave you his phone number since you didn't give him yours (at least you make no mention of doing so). Go ahead and call him!

To forward? To a guy?

If a guy is cold to you, it's not because you were "forward", it's because they are not interested.

What the heck were you doing texting him for. You wanted to talk on the phone and he gave you his phone number. He gave you his phone number so you could call and TALK.

I agree too but don't you ever watch commercials...people can be sitting at the same table and texting each other instead of talking Many people have put a 24 hour time lapse between the next communication,as a way of showing your interested but not desperate.

Exactly......

Regarding forward women, I say..... "bring it"

If you are interested & he gave you his number by all means call him. There's a reason he gave you his number...he must be some what interested too. Don't let this pass you up ~ why does it have to be the guy to call 1st. It's time we as woman go for what we want, right? Texting is about the same as emailing really if you think about it.
Call Him before it ends up being too late.
