Why Can't Dating Work The Way I Want It To?

So I went to this house party like a week and a half ago at my friend's house (a friend I love dearly who is sweet and thoughtful). She is married and she invited all of her single friends and her husband did the same. Single people are pathetic, in case you didn't know. So I met this guy who asked me for my number and he had giant muscles and his name was something that ended in y. I gave him my cell and he called it right in front of me (was this the equivalent of a trust fall?) and said he wanted to make sure that I had his number because he wanted me to know who it was when he called. He never called. Two days later, I wasn't really even thinking about it, but then bam, tonight he called. We didn't really get to talk because I had just finished making dinner and had friends over, but I agreed to call him back later, at which point he didn't answer when I returned the call. I left a very nice voicemail, but gave constructive feedback about how long it took to go into voicemail and that maybe he should contact his service provider about that.

Now I think to myself, how long do I have to hold "things" back? My ideal would be to call and say something along the lines of:

"I haven't had sex in two months. Do you like ice cream? I like eating." Then maybe I could grunt a few times.

Is that sexy? That is not a rhetorical question, somebody please tell me. Should I now expect to wait another week and a half before he calls again? What is the timeline, in dating, for mentioning my obsession with cats and the show Toddlers And Tiaras? Never, you say? Can I get a confirmation on that because I have no idea what I'm doing. Thanks.
