A few days later, I get a call from a number I'm not familiar with, and when I answer, I get a *click*. So I call the number back and a girl's voice tells me she reached a wrong number, trying to reach her "friend". I couldn't help but think that it was the girl who I gave my number to though.So a few days later, I call the number myself, and it turns out that it WAS the girl after all! Our talk seemed to be going well enough, with me introducing myself as the character I went dressed as and reminding her of the bar/grill we met at. She wondered how I got her number and I told her that it came up on my caller ID a few days ago, but strangely, she says she doesn't remember calling it. She remembered me, but not calling my number. Then she asks how I knew it was her, and I said that I just had a feeling of it, and she says "okay" then hangs up. I didn't call right back, because I don't want to sound like one of those pestering types. But it just seems strange to me that she would call my number (which I wrote on one of my "prop cards" instead of just a piece of paper) and not remember doing so a few days later.What do you make of this?

She could be having an attack of embarrassment at having made the first move. Just give it a few more days then ring again, carrying on the conversation as if nothing else has happened i.e. the 'mis-dialled' number. Don't mention a thing about that episode. If she again asks how you got her number, say you can't remember, she must have given it to you at the party and just project your normal self, much as you did at the party, then make a date to meet. If all that fails - THEN give up!
Good luck mate.

it depends on how much time has passed. if a lot, how about another call? of course, if something similar happens, you should say goodbye my friend. or become her friend...
