Example's new to this forum, as am I and YoungMan. You may not trust us then, but I'll still say Example has some great points.
I love the part about not adding her on facebook. After a first-date lay with one of the most beautiful girls I've ever been with, I let her add me, from my computer in my apartment, the next morning. It was one of many mistakes I made that lead to no date two. If you get to know her more before adding her, you'll know if you should edit your profile here or there, and even if you don't she'll be more likely to see good in your profile, and less likely to see bad. (If you like her at all, editing here and there is smart, because girls similar to her think similar to her.)
I also love the not-telling-her-what-the-plan-is-so-she-thinks-about-it-all-week bit. Very strong.
But to do this well you have to be confident. She'll have built up hope and expectations, and if you don't meet those expectations you have to remain cool and control the frame. You can't let a bored girl turn you into a sheep. It should make it easier to know that if she doesn't like what you do, she's not for you.
This raises a general question about texts though. Do you guys prefer adopting dumb-girl-text-language (abbreviations, no caps, tons of words, multiple exclamation points and question marks, etc) to build rapport, or do you keep it smart? I keep it smart ...
