Dear Queenie,
I don’t know how many times I’ve called a woman to ask her for a date and when she didn’t answer her phone I left a message on her voicemail but she never called back.
Queenie, shouldn’t they at least call me back, even if they don’t accept my invitation?—Wants RSVP
Dear Wants RSVP,
It depends on how many times you leave that same message and on the message you leave. There is always the possibility that your first message was accidentally erased or that she was just too busy, so you should try at least one more time.
If your message is “Hi. Call me back” and there is no response to message number two she may still be just too busy, but if the message was specifically an invitation for a date the RSVP is pretty clearly “No, thanks.”
