Girls: How do you feel when a guy comes up outta no where and asks for your number?

[Brady_to_Moss]

Like i want to start doing this and see what happens...but should i at least have talked to her before or does that matter at all? It just seems awkward to walk up to a girl you dont know and ask her for her #

[JoeNewbie]

I think it would work only if you are VERY good looking and the girl is VERY keen.

Thats what i was thinking but everyone is just like go up to her and get her #..but is it really that easy?

You mean a complete stranger? I guess you could get laid that way but I don't think any decent girl would give out her number that easily.

[allina]

It can happen but you have to be attractive, polite and non creepy/sleazy

[ManWithQuestions]

most girls would be scared by that

i wouldnt be suprised if they just walked away or gave you a fake number

[vanilla87]

I'd be freaked, because I've watched enough news programs to get me thinking to never accept out of the blue. I have to know the guy for over 3 hours before I can even consider a date with him, no matter how hot he is, I have to be sure, because some of the nicest people can actually be some of the worst. Appearances can be deceiving....

My current bf did that. We were in Wal-Mart and he almost ran into me. I noticed he was pretty cute. A few minutes later, he followed me and asked me for my number...it was so cute. Actually, his first line was "Are you from around here?" LOL! A lil chit-chat, then he asked for my number. He was so cute, and so obviously nervous I couldn't resist. And we've been together over three years now.

 

Besides him, I've had a lot of guys ask for my number when I worked at JC Penneys as a cashier. Didn't always give it out, but I was flattered.

Actually just ask as much as you want.. Many women would give you their number and date you. If a woman is terrified, it would probably not be a good match anyway. Saying anything is better than nothing.

[jadedone]

I would try getting her name first.

Definitely the best advice so far!

 

Nice.

[trubella]

i used to like it, especially when theyre attractive and not corny, now it just gets old. now that im no longer single i feel like just kicking a guy in the nuts when he asks me because i really dont want to be bothered.

[Angel1111]

Well, really, how else would you get to know someone that you see in passing and may never see again? I think it's fine as long as you present yourself well and don't come across as pushy - that will scare her. Be polite and maybe let her know you feel a little strange for asking but just couldn't let her get away. Something like that maybe.

 

My son did this with a girl - but he's 17 so he could probably get away with it a little easier in his age group - and he's dating the girl now. I think he saw her walking on the street and pulled up and said, "Hey you're cute. Can I have your number?" Not sure that would work with an adult but it's not bad. I had to admire him for his courage.

 

But I will add that if she does give you her number, don't play games and wait a week before calling her. Call within the next day or so.

[vonerik012]

Why wouldn't that work with an adult? It works for me..

Noticed the word "cute" used 3 times...and "He was cute" variants used 2 times of the 3.

 

If he wasn't cute....he might have been considered a stalker. LOL!

 

But anyhow, the cold turkey approach is usually off putting to women in public, I tried it, and it doesn't work. They think you're about to rape them or something. LOL

 

I tried talking to this girl that was sitting at a Books A MIllion, at a chair reading, and I sat down beside her with my book...then I tried to ask her what she was reading, and she was already paranoid....they have this "Why is this guy talking to me for?" look on their face.

 

If they don't know you, they don't want you talking to them.

 

Mostly I would get "Short" answers as to not enourage me to ask continual questions.

 

"So what are you reading?"

 

"A tale of two cities"

 

Me: "Oh, I read that back in college, good read, I like the part <describe a part>"

 

Her: "Yeah, that's nice" and continues face buried in the book.

 

Me: So, what genre's do you like reading?

 

Her: "The classics, anyhow gotta go, nice talking to you"

 

(Condensed version, but sometimes the conversation probably goes for a minute longer like this...and I get this, "Well, it was nice talking to you, gotta go."

Maybe she was just annoyed because she was trying to read? Lol. I get annoyed when I am interrupted by a stranger when I am engrossed in something, such as reading a book.

 

It's not just about looks, it's about timing too. Make sure she's not busy if you decide to approach her. I was just walking with a loaf of bread when my bf asked for my number. And yeah...lol...he was cute, but the way he asked me was cute too...which was the reason I gave him my number. I liked that he actually had the courage to talk to me even though he was so obviously nervous.

[Jersey Shortie]

It all depends on his approach and how he makes me feel within that approach. It could be creepy or it could be really cool.

 

I say risk it and go for it if you see a girl you like, but you got to do it with some cooth. You can't expect a girl to drop at your feet just because you asked her for her number.

 

I am flattered when men approach me for the most part, even if I am not intersted in him it's still flattering on some level.

[Balthazar]

I have never done this.

 

But I agree that the handsome, charming man could probably do it, and in a way that would make the lady feel good.

 

I prefer to get to know them a bit, not just pop out of the blue.
