totallyunsure Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 hi,i am now about to start dating,i am confident lad and i get quite a few flirty looks from women in the mall and in general life but i have no experience in what to do from there and wanted to know from a girls/womans point of view-would you prefer a guy to give you his contact details so if you like him you can text or contact him or would you prefer the guy to ask you for your phone number?as many opinions as possible please.thanks
Green Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 I'm a guy but I'm going to respond anyways. Feel free to ignore and stop reading since you want "girls only" responding. First, getting a number shouldn't be your goal... and making a big deal about phone numbers when they mean nothing really shouldn't be your mind set. ASK GIRLS out! Don't expect them to ask you out or chase you in the begining. Asking the girl out to a date should be your goal. Example "Lets get coffee" or "I want to take you to great resteraunt I know"... then whether she says "yes" or "no" just get her contact info. If you make getting her number your goal... and then she gives you her number... that means nothing. And then if you ask her out in a phone call or worse a txt its just uncofident and less genuine and less likely to get a yes... So make your goal asking girls out. Oh and asking women for advice on dating is almost as bad as asking men for advice. Most people just plain give bad advice. You already know what you need to do. You know exactly what the confident version of yourself would do. The confident version of yourself would ask girls out and learn from his mistakes instead of seeking out advice. Learn from ACTION. ASK GIRLS OUT! face your fears of rejection.
USMCHokie Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 my number or ask for hers?(girls only) as many opinions as possible please.thanks FAIL. You must be a young kid. I don't accept anything less than a phone number from her. No email addresses, Facebook invitations, or giving my number to her. And unlike Green, I don't ask them out on the spot, as I generally like a bit more planning and coordination, so I'll call them to ask them on the date.
Mike B. Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 I just knew it! I only clicked on this thread to see how many guys would respond to the OP's post despite his request that only girls reply. I am not technically replying to his post so I don't count. It's just funny cause it happens all the time here. That's all.

If he really didn't want me (a guy) to answer he should have just asked for beauty care tips and what was a good make up brand... oh and of course left out (girls only) I find it funny that he thinks the female point of view is more important than being able to relate to guys who have been through what he is going through.

Here, here. He doesn't have enough experience to know that he should be asking men. Get her number, call her, and ask her out.

Ultra123 Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 As a guy i always ask for her number and then make her check her phone to see if she got it, a subtle way of doing this is making her guess which state the area code is from, because ive had my phone number for a while but the area code is different and most women wont be able to guess it, and it strikes up another convo bout my previous time which makes the number getting process more comfy for her
Angel1111 Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 If a guy gives me his number, he'll never hear from me.
Kinder-Horror Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 Well - I'd say that I'd rather the guy give me his number (that way if I am not into him, I don't have to constantly deal with him calling me), but I don't think I would ever call a guy to initiate a date. I would probably text him!... guess I am too chicken. So I suppose ask for hers. The worst that can happen is she says no... in which you don't want to waste any more time on her anyway
Cee Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 This thread is unanimous so far... I'm a woman and I say- Get her number.
