Gentlemen Callers of Today

Modern men will display their affection most commonly through social media (with the sliding of the DMs as we call it in Old English). After there’s an introduction, the texts turn into daily calls until a woman is invited on a date. Women expect men to call and ask when they’ll meet again, however, it’s women who sometimes take matters into their own hands. Women plan the next date or ask when a good time to call is. Dating is a game of chess —  they make a move and then you make a wiser move. If he takes an hour to text you back, a woman might take two hours to respond. Courting is a two-way street that some men won’t get on until they see a woman meeting them halfway.
