masaki1085 Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 My friend and I hung out at a local pub last night with a two other acquaintances. My friend had decided to buy shots for the four of us, but then there was also young lady who was on her own sitting next to us that he decided to buy a fifth drink for. She introduced herself to all of us. As she starts talking with us, one of the guys in our group--one that I don't know that well--comes over and starts flirting a bit with her. During the conversation, I move a little bit closer just to be more part of what's going on, but was not actively flirting or trying to compete for her attention. While we're all talking, this other guy is really working hard to get this girl's number--she eventually gives her a business card with her business phone number on it. He invites her to dance to a song the DJ is playing, and she agrees kind of reluctantly. After dancing, she comes back and closes out her tab. Before she is able to leave though, my friend and I offer to buy her a drink as a gesture to stay a little longer (my friend wanted me to ask for her number), and I continue conversing with her a little bit. The other guy comes back every now and then, but she kind of shrugs him off. During my conversations with the girl, she states "Maybe I shouldn't have given that guy my card, huh?" Afterwards, she gives the rest of us guys her card to show that she wasn't just giving the one guy her card. After I got a card, I begin asking her some questions about her job that might have been slightly flirtatious (she's a stylist--for example, I asked her if she would cut my hair, would she be better than my regular barber--playfully giving her a hard time). When she eventually commits to leaving, she grabs the card she gave me and writes her cell phone number on it--as she's doing this, she's like, "I'm going to give you my cell phone number. Don't let that other guy see this--keep it a secret." To be honest, I wasn't really expecting this because I wasn't really angling for it. Never asked her directly for it like the other guy--all I did was engage her with some friendly conversation. But I did get her REAL number, which was more than everyone else who got just a business card with her business number. And I did think she was pretty cute. This means call, right?

carhill Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Here, what's the number? I'll call her for you OP, I trust there are green lights in your part of the world and you know what they mean, yes? Have fun!
Left in a Lurch Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 The funny part is she will be surprised and not understand why the other guy calls when he calls her.

Author masaki1085 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Posted September 27, 2009 Well of course it does. Good lord, you have to ASK that. LOL I guess it's silly that I was asking. It seems like many guys try really hard to get a phone number (like that other guy who was hitting on her the whole night). I'm not used to one falling on my lap like it did. Since I was not actively angling for the number, I might have given off the vibe that I was detached or disinterested (or cool and collected ). Makes me wonder if she'll be pleasantly surprised when she gets a call later.
HGP Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 Yes, call her. Don't overthink it, be confident, and call her.
