I didn't call because I was trapped in a phone box without any change...

Someone you’re dating left you a message.  What message do you want to leave them?  Here we have the world’s first Primer for Effective Callback Hinting:

What is your datee trying to tell you if he or she:

Calls back within minutes:

• really likes you
• scared of losing you
• paranoid about missed phone calls
• has a crazy day ahead and wants to make sure he/she gets back to you

Calls back within 3-5 hours:

• feels you have a connection
• always makes sure to call anyone back within 3-5 hours
• always forces himeself/herself never to call a datee back in less than 3-5 hours

Calls back that night:

• believes you should always call anyone back within 12-24 hours
• was dying to call back earlier but just didn’t have the time

Calls back the next day:

• didn’t have time last night,  too busy.  It was a great date – just not with you…
• was abducted by aliens for overnight medical tests.
• was tied up at work and handcuffed to the cubicle

Calls back two days later:

• called in by the aliens to see a specialist
• was at the police filing a complaint against boss for inhumane treatment of employees
• having a great time with what’s his/her name – oh, shouldn’t be talking about that

Calls back three days later:

• Drafted by the aliens into their army
• got called up to fight in Israel’s invasion of Jupiter and had to be fitted for a spacesuit
• was invited to a wine tasting three days ago and didn’t know you’re supposed to spit the wine out
• HALLOOO!  NOT INTERESTED IN YOU!
