:cool3: I dont know about you guys, but this is something that comes very easy to me. I enjoy meeting new girls, and getting their phone number. :evil2: I just got a new one today from this new chick at my work...the same one in the other thread i made about flirting. :)

Does anybody have problems asking people for their phone number?

I don't have a problem with it. I don't do it very often tho.

I don't like getting guys phone numbers unless I'm really interested, but I'm really shy anyway. I'll usually give mine out if he seems nice tho.

honestly, i dont see whats so hard about getting a phone number.
as long as your initial impression is of a nice/good guy, then she wont have a problem with you calling her up "just to chat." the only downfall most people have is that this getting-the-number thing is kinda overrated... they get intimidated and nervous... and nervousness leads to loss of confidence... and loss of confidence leads to less chance of getting number... and less chance of getting number leads to lower self-esteem... and the cycle repeats again. haha, thats what i htink anyways.


but back to the topic at hand, i have no problem with getting a grrl's phone number.
just ask. to talk, make plans to do something fun, not necessarily a move at romance. yanno?

i think sometimes its hard coz it may seem random..liek to go up to a guy and ask for their number coz it may come across as random and the sort

I'm not good at it, but getting better. There's this chick at work I have called. It's easy when you work with someone because you just make up some BS like you want to switch schedule or something. I always have to have a reason to call though...never just to chat.

Phone numbers are no big deal, but some guys seem to make it one.
Just say, 'hold on, i wanna get something to write your number down with, ok?' or something like that.
If you're a cute guy most of the time girls are flattered by the attention. Assuming they don't have a bf, and you're not obnoxious or anything, it shouldnt be a problem.
Keep in mind that some people are 'phone number collectors' and not everyone who gets your number is going to call you. If they're interested they will, also assuming, of course, that they aren't too shy to do it.

I've never had a problem getting numbers. Hell, I could get a lot more if I wanted to. I just don't. I'm a lot like in Linds' case.

If I don't know them that well, then I don't bother asking

if on the other hand I do, then I'll find it when I need it

Pretty simple stuff

Then... say you have a bf or gf already. Would you give your phone # out to someone who asked (you don't know their intentions)?

I'm actually pretty good at it, probably because I'm good at sounding ambiguous, not like I'm gonna ask them out or anything. I mean, what's the harm in giving someone your number so you can talk to them if they're cool to talk to, right? :P

(again... now if only I could get a DATE!)

probably not phone number, but email address, cause that's more casual and I hate phones anyway.
