Lyla: Okay, here's a hypothetical. You ask a girl for her number, but wait two weeks to call her. What gives? 

George: Well, that depends. Why? 

Lyla: Well, I met this guy two weeks ago at a party. We spent the entire evening talking and I thought we really hit it off. We had a lot of chemistry and we had a ton of things [bad word]  He asked for my number and he said he'd call me the next day. And then, I didn't hear hide nor hair of him until yesterday, 10 days after we met. [bad word]  

George: What did he say when he called? What was his pathetic excuse? 

Lyla: I didn't talk to him. I wasn't home and he left a voicemail message. I haven't called him back yet. 

George: Why don't you just call him and find out? 

Lyla: He just called yesterday and I don't want to seem desperate. 

George: [bad word] on. He probably just lost your number and found it yesterday. 

Lyla: That's possible. 

George: Or he had to go out of town and just got back. 

Lyla: I suppose. 

George: Or maybe he was nervous about calling you and just got up the nerve. 

Lyla: Do you really think so? 

George: Maybe. Or maybe he's playing hard to get or he's just not that into you. 

Lyla: Oh. 

George: But you won't know if you don't call him back. 

Lyla: I guess that's [bad word]
