Last week I had a guy approach me at the gas station and ask if he could use my phone because he was having car troubles and his phone battery was dead...he made about a three second call and said he couldn't reach them..later that night he called me back to "thank" me for letting him use my phone and offer to buy me lunch etc..so apparently he called himself from my phone.. lol.

    thank you for the hot dating tip

    I guess the question should be is how do women feel about a guy asking 4 their phone number ...I know everyone is different ...Some will base it on looks 1st or how the guy approached them..I need 2 speak 2 the woman & see how the chemistry is or if there even is any chemistry, if i ever even thought about asking 4 their number

    I've always sucked at gathering the nerve to just go over and ask for digits.
    All the dates I've talked myself into or been asked on have been through general conversation when we've got talking over something completely different!

    Other than a couple from dating websites but - I'm speaking strictly 'in person' meets though.

    I've also dated a few 'ex clients' that I wouldn't go on a date with whilst I was their trainer - not mixing work with pleasure..

    But I think just generally going and asking for a number takes a lot of nerve and it's just an amount that I don't have :lol:

    So just like that, you give strangers access to your phone? You should have told me that before we started to kik and i sent you those pics


    So you're saying not ok to share the pics you sent me with him??? Lol

    Most guys fear getting rejected and most females go on a power trip after saying no, so the male sex has resorted to facebook stalking. Plain and simple.

    The best way I think to lure in a woman is to have a decadent brownie on a plate (obviously the classier the presentation the classier the lady you will attract..for example whip cream, caramel fudge drizzle, hazelnuts) attached to a string. When the lady tries to get the brownie you simply pull the string in a little, then a little more and soon she'll be at your house where you can have the whole pan of brownies waiting. If you have wine there as well....you don't even need to get her phone number.

    I think, I ll use it when I see someone I really like

    I asked a random chick for her number and she demurred, but she didn't call the Interpol, maybe. I'm crashed and burned.

    Our culture really isn't conducive to that kind of thing any more. Between our inherent fear of "stranger danger," and constantly having our faces in our electronics (I'm guilty, too), it's just not that common just to go up to someone and talk to them.

    Made me smile. Let's swop that brownie out for a well groomed guy, educated, humorous and charming...still need a brownie?

    That's actually pretty clever...but could definitely read as creepy.

    Would never ask the number of someone unless we had hit it off in an actual conversation. I find it creepy to ask the number of a complete stranger.

    you know, I'm not really sure how reliable those "for a good time call" numbers on the mens bathroom walls really are.

    Wouldn't know I never call them I just write them down.
