I prefer when a guy calls...but do whatever you feel most comfortable with. Good luck!

If she's shy I'd try texting first.

Really? I am surprised to this topic from you. Is she Desi?

Rule # 1 : Never get advice from women!

Anyway I met this woman online the other day and we instantly had a spark, we kept chatting for a while and finally decided to meet 2 days ago. I met her at a restaurant she liked, ordered some food and spoke about each other for a couple of hours. I was doing the talking for quite a bit as I am usually someone that talks quite a bit, but then I also let her talk and listened for a while about what she had to say. She was very soft spoken and I find that a very feminine and appealing quality, we spoke at length about what we had done with our career, lives, ambitions, expectations and of course just the current happenings and life/society in general.

Anyway we spent like 3 hours together and I am very interested in her. I don't know if she's but the fact that she could have made an excuse and left earlier but still stayed for 3 hours made me feel that she might be interested in me too. I would like to find out how I should proceed from here, I am not asking this not because I don't know what to do but based on my previous negative experience, I thought it was best to get a second opinion and get as many opinions as possible, esp. from the women of CD.

We can't tell enough about you and her to make a judgment on-line because we don't have a "visual" of the body language and because we don't know what you both have in common.

Not to be a jerk, but I've gone on practically full-day first dates (usually showing/being shown around a city) that did NOT result in a second date, even though conversation was constant and we had a lot in common. Maybe that's why I hate Chicago. But that's another story.

Like everyone else says, you will have to ask her out a second time, and if yes, a third time....and so on.

No she's not desi, she's a White American girl. Anyway I have decided to not call or text her, I don't think it's going to work out and I wouldn't like to be rejected and feel bad about it if she says no to a second date, so I am just giving up on it.

Are you looking for a relationship? So what if you get rejected? It is not like you lost anything.

I have got rejected like 500 times in my lifetime literally. I lost count. I enjoy the game and treat rejection like business.
