Three Day Rule

So, hypothetically...
A boy meets a girl on Thursday night, he can't really remember what happened to pull her, but he took her back to his and had a kiss and a cuddle and a sleep together till they left together in a taxi on Friday morning - him to go to work and her to go home.
He took her number, and casually said "text me, yeah?" when he got out of the taxi and into work the next day.
How long should he wait before he texts her and asks her if she wants to go for a drink? Sunday evening, or should he just leave it till Monday?
Is the three day rule a good idea?
She's (hypothetically) proper fit and all that jazz, and he doesn't want to seem keen, although he would really like to see her again.

Society... :crazyeyes
possibly the following night, since there was cuddling and stuff, but never the same morning, or during the day. its gotta be the night of the day after he got the number.
or a simple 2 days seems fine haha
don't be such a girl.
i mean some guys even text me the same night when i get home from the club!
same here and it doesn't put me off at all. :no:
Either she wants to see you again or she doesn't. If she did do and is then put off because she feels that you txt her too soon then she's a fucking pain and if she's that much work after one night do you really want to see her again?
Yeah but I don't know if likes me or not so how am I supposed to know if she'd mind or not? :razz:
I texted her anyway just saying hiya and she left her lighter here and if she wanted to go for a drink. She text back saying that'd be nice, so we'll maybe see what happens
good job, and good luck!:thumb:
If you're interested, text whenever you want. If you're not interested, don't text. It's very simple, don't dick about thinking about "ooo it's been 72 hours, I should be allowed to text now".
To be honest if she was only moderately pretty then I'd have been less worried about seeming too keen. But she's really, really pretty and sweet with it and easy to talk to about random shit.
Without going down the life story road, I owe it to myself not to go running like a puppy dog like I've done in the past because that tends to result in her taking the piss big stylee.
Euch, wish I wasn't so stand-offish nowadays
Thank you
The very last thing I want to do is to turn round a few weeks down the line and end it because I've got cold feet. I'd hate to use anybody like that, I wouldn't go on a date with someone if I couldn't potentially see something coming from it. I hurt someone without realising it towards the end of last year because I was too wrapped up in my own past and that caused quite a bit of upset I think
