    Maybe they are afraid of being rejected? 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.

    sounds kind of creepy to me! If I want your number, I'll ask you for it... Worst that can happen is you say no.

    I do, but only for business purposes.

    You'd probably get done for rape or being a sexist pig these days if you asked for a girls number... D:

    I like be able to chat one on one. Not feeling forced to. Guess doing it naturally.

    The first time a guy asked me for my number when I was younger I was so excited. And he called....wanted to talk to my sister. This thread just made me remember that.

    I would have thrown rocks at both of them

    Absolutely. I never get asked, the only possible reason is that they are too shy. Cannot have anything to do with being a 4 and married

    Yeah... you're a 4.

    On a scale from: Negative 5 to + 4.0025

    Such a heartbreaker!

    I reckon that she'll need to eek out that last .0025 on her own.

    I've had a few ask for my number but I'm mainly the one asking for a guy's number. I'm even bolder now, since part of my job is networking.

    I read a good book...fiction...called The Croning. About the elder gods but I'm not gonna do spoilers.

    Thanks for the recommendation! :star: I'm in the middle of 'The Book of Cthulu' compilation and 'The Obelisk Gate' by N.K. Jemisin right now, but I'll definitely put it on my To Be Read list :smiley:

    It's tough. There are tons of women who have met so many creeps and losers that it almost feels stalky and you always think the other person will find you creepy.

    If you have an interest in someone, whether you are a guy or a girl, you could just offer to give your phone number to the person. For me that would be less awkward, I'd feel less "on the spot".

    I keep telling you both that my numbers are 13, 3, and 21.

    I'm playing those numbers tonight!
