Are men afraid to ask for a women's number?

I find that mostly weird dudes have the confidence/gall to ask for my number. Kind of annoying.
I met someone on New Years eve and was shocked. It was the first time I have organically met someone I like in real life and not online in a very long time.
I had a guy in K-Mart last summer make conversation with me while we waited in line. Attractive, my age, and specifically started a convo with me. He even took his time putting his receipt away like he was waiting for me to get done checking out, but then he left. I felt like I was being punk'd. It's so odd for that to happen anymore. Now every time I go in there I look for my mystery man.
I know. I've had that happen as well...like, wow this is going so well. He's so cute. K, bye.

that's because there is a big jump between small talk in a check-out line to something further.
what would you wanted for him to say?0 -
