disco Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 So at my grocery store there is this really cute girl. I've chit-chatted with her a few times and decided to ask her out. I told her I just moved to LA (which I did) and was trying to make some new friends (which I am) and she seemed pretty cool so I asked if I could call her sometime. She said that I could give her my number. So I did, she told me to expect a call on a weekend.......hmmmm still waiting on that call. So girls out there, why would you ask for a guys number if you never plan on calling him. I understand that people change their mind, but it's a little frustrating.
carhill Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Next (translation: Don't wait) I may be old, but I remember the important thing is to get her number, more as a barometer of her comfort level with you, along with interest. A gentleman always contacts his lady, not vice-versa, at least in the beginning

ALL smart females NEVER expect a call from males they give their numbers too. ALL smart males NEVER expect a call from females they give their numbers too. If it happens, it's a bonus but this is NOT something that requires discussion on a message board. This happens every split second of every minute...of every year. Count on it!

xpaperxcutx Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Every girls gonna be flattered if a single guy comes up to them and starting asking them for their numbers. What girl doesn't like a little attention and harmless flirting? But it doesn't mean she would want to start anything with a guy she hardly knows. And her turnaround on the whole "give me your number instead", doesn't mean she'll put you on her speeddial. Most likely she'll keep it in her pockets until she can't find something better. Sorry. It's the same way with guys. But you'll get used to it.
Author disco Posted March 22, 2008 Author Posted March 22, 2008 she'll keep it in her pockets until she can't find something better Well I'd rarther not be the "until she finds something better" guy. Who wants that.....that's f'd up. Screw that. If that's what it is, then she can throw the number away. I'm not into being a leftover. Since I've posted this I've seen and talked to her a couple of times. She's younger than me so what I think it really is, is that she is somewhat cautious and intimidated by me. But that's ok, it's a numbers game so there are a ton of girls out there to ask out.......
dreamergrl Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 It's only Saturday morning.... she may still call. Perhaps she's been busy. Given that she specifically told you when to expect a call (the weekend) I don't necessarily think she just was looking for attention.

Every girls gonna be flattered if a single guy comes up to them and starting asking them for their numbers. What girl doesn't like a little attention and harmless flirting?

Get used to this now - the city is full of flakes who will use you for what they want, including a boost to their ego with some harmless flirting at a grocery store. This is particularly true if you live anywhere south of Van Nuys Blvd, North of LAX, and East of La Brea...pretty much anywhere in (310) or (323). Get my drift?
gfto Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 Disco, Women do this when they are not interested in you. From now on, when you ask a woman for her number, and she says, "well, why don't you give me your number," just smile and say, "oh, I don't give my phone number to strangers," and walk away.
