Thanks much for the advice guys! I felt that I really shouldn't spend time chasing her down but sometimes I get carried away and lose my bearing lol. That's why I tried to get your guys opinions first before I acted!

And btw that santa clause analogy is pretty fuckin funny and it made alot of sense to me!!
Anyway I will just post a report of how I got her number and made out for like 5 minutes in case it will be of help to anyone..
I was at a house party. She showed up with one of her friends. I talked with the both of them for a while. Where you guys from? Do you like it there? Do you go to college here? etc. Then after awhile of that stuff I got the one HB8 by herself asked them what they were doing later and told them they should come back to my place! She responded well to it but they had to go and watch a kid later that night so it wasn't going to work out. Anyway it followed with me going with HB8 to the store to pickup some stuff. She drove. I took this opportunity to start rubbing against her skin and holding hands and joking and having fun with her. Then I tried to run my hand up her leg under her skirt which she let me do for a little and then she got kind of nervous and put an end to that. I tried to do it a couple more times, each time doing it for longer. We continued to talk more about sex and stuff and she kept telling me how funny I was. Then we made it back to the house and I made it a point that we should kiss. We made out for like 5 min then went inside. After that I told her to give me her phone number. She responded well and gave me it. Then awhile later they had to leave and we hugged goodbye and whatever. Then I tried to text her later that night with no response. Then I texted her and called twice the next day. I felt that this was more of a persistent thing rather then a desperate thing but I failed to realize that she probably would look at it as desperate as you guys have pointed out.
Anyway that's my report. Am I too forward and persistent in my ways? I am a really confident person. Almost too much confidence sometimes. I just feel that the best way to get girls is to go up and tell them exactly what you want. Kind of cut out all the bullshit. Good thinking or no? Also what reasons do you guys think for her not picking up? I say shes probably scared at how fast we moved or doesn't want to feel like a slut. Or hell, maybe she just flat out didn't like me.
Thanks for reading guys and please give me some opinions on good and bad stuff I did. I can't wait to get really good at this shit so I can contribute back and help everyone else!
