The best way to succeed with a woman after you have her phone number is to ask her out for a coffee. Building and strengthening your connection with her is best done in a casual atmosphere and there is nothing like a cafe.
The probability that a woman will accept your invitation for coffee is much greater than that of her accepting an invitation to a more formal date such as dinner or the movies. Because it’s short and in a public place there’s no underlying expectations for her to become intimate or be exposed to a situation that may make her feel uncomfortable.
Men grossly underestimate the importance of these factors when asking a woman out for the first time. Women take things slowly during the initial stages of a courtship. A short coffee date is the perfect stepping stone to get you to an official second date.
It takes the average woman takes around 8 hours before she becomes comfortable enough to become intimate with a new man. The secret is in how you utilize these 8 hours. It’s best to break these 8 hours into two dates. The best formula is a short 40 minute coffee date followed by a second date which lasts for 7 hours. You don’t want to spend any longer than 40 minutes with her the first time you meet her. The average first date ideas such as dinner and the movies consistently fail because they break this 40 minute rule.
