I think you are doing well. My guess is some men make the mistake of having the first or second date and then going into a phone session with her...meaning he calls her often just to chat. Some women can quickly lose interests in a man that does that. I'm no professional to dating either. I can only use my imagination. I would rather talk to him during the dates that he sets up than for him to have one or two official dates with me and then starts texting and phoning me.
I guess dates can make some of us women “dream”. Phone chats doesn’t give that much excitement. Too much of it (at the beginning) may not be good, in my opinion.
Good Luck.
