A: I say it depends on the type of communication you are having with this potential suitor. If it is in person (i.e. @ work/church/mutual group of friends) it would be less time than if it is via email/text/social networking etc. I say if it's in person after about a month or month & a half of putting out signals and getting nothing in return, then retreat. If via the internet maybe a couple of months. A guy knows pretty quickly if he's at least interested or not, he's just gotta decide if he wants to do something about it.
(The Guyru would tend to disagree; it all depends on how direct you're being and what kind of response you're getting - online or off. If you're straight up asking him/her out, then once, MAYBE twice, is plenty if you get a response like "no, I have to be up by noon tomorrow and I don't want to oversleep so I can't do anything tonight." Ultimate answer is it's too subjective to put a time limit on it, and it's proportional to how strongly you're coming on to them vs the reaction you're getting. I don't think that online or offline changes anything.)
