mortensorchid Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 I was on OkCupid last week, someone sent me an email. We exchanged just some "hi how are you" type emails, nothing outlandish or odd. Then he sent me his phone number and said "Text or call anytime you like". That was on Friday afternoon. I was busy Friday, Saturday and most of Sunday, signed on today and he no longer has an account. Was I blocked? Maybe. But why even bother to send one's number at all? Don't they give it a chance? Or was I in the wrong?
GetTheClou Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 title says it all, why even bother about a random profile with a random phone number??
M2155 Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 I don't know the site well but I've had people give their number or e-mail when they were getting ready to close their accounts. Could be saying "hey I am not renewing my subscription so call me here." At the same time, it's just a profile, no hard feelings if you decide to contact him or not.
lso802 Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 He should be calling you. not that again. just use a google voice number, if you're afraid he's not legit. it's easy to block people's number using it. plus, it's free. otherwise, if you're not interested, it's not worth your time analyzing what his intentions are in doing that.

gaius Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 not that again. Weren't you just talking about how much you get rejected in another thread? It's weird for a guy to give his number without asking for yours morten. The few times I've done it I was really into her, had to leave and she wasn't giving me hers.
carhill Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 OP, what would you do if a guy you met on the street gave you his number and suggested you call him sometime? Go with that.
