Put Your Number In My Phone?

[HoneyBadgerDontCare]

So I mentioned this in another thread last night but I'll say it here--think I've reached a point where I need to be more aggressive in cold approaching. My social circle is stagnant right now, and due to some recent events, I've cut more people (See: 'women') out of it than I've let in. I also don't do OLD so that really leaves cold approaching as my option.

 

Wholigan posted this link before for jokes but I want to get real opinions from women about this.

 

 

Of course, we don't know how many rejections were cut out of the video, nor do we know how many women put their real numbers in it. We do know though, that there were some women who took the time to put numbers into a stranger's phone, simply because he asked.

 

I read a post on a PUA forum where a man tried the same thing as the man in the video, and also got some numbers.

 

My question is, would you actually respond to this? Would you put your actual number in a guy's phone just because he walked up to you and asked you? Is it just out of the sheer boldness that you'd feel he earned it? Or would you put a fake number in and continue on your way?

 

A man walks up and asks you to put your number in his phone. What would you do?

 

A better idea would be to ask to see the girl's phone and then call yourself....and save your number in her phone as something funny.

 

I suggest talking to her first though.

I've met a lot of girls via cold "daytime" approach. While I don't claim to be a master of it (whatever that means), I have had some success.

 

(1) There's getting a girl to put *a* number in your phone.

(2) Then there's getting a girl to put *her* number in your phone.

(3) Then there's getting a girl to actually answer.

 

I can tell you from experience that (2) is actually pretty easy. It's (3) that's much harder.

 

 

Anyway, it always concerns me whenever I see newbies watching these crazy PUA videos and thinking that is how you meet women. These videos impress GUYS. Anyway, the guys' boldness is awesome, but unless the guy sticks around after he gets her number to vibe with her so that she feels comfortable she probably won't be answering his texts or calls.

 

This is what I would advise for you: Go up and talk to her, express some direct interest, and if she is interested she will talk to you. Then have a conversation with her. If that goes well (it might not--I sometimes was feeling it and she wasn't and vice versa), or and you're still interested then ask for the number. With SOME luck (there are no guarantees by any means here) if you call you might get to see her again.

 

this 100%

 

i will add a 4) though: "getting said girl that answered call/text to show up on a date.

 

agree that getting numbers isn't really all that difficult, when you compare that to actually getting these girls to come out on a date with you.

It can't be the first thing you say to the girl, you have to at least talk to he first.

 

But yeah, I tend to take out my phone and just tell her to key it in.

If you ask it creates more tension. Just tell her key it in.

 

You might get more flakes this way but you'll get more numbers too so it balances out, probably more in your favor.

This guy's getting more popular. Youtube "Do you even lift" it's pretty funny.

Castle:

 

1) Stop seeking advice from here.

 

2) Start experimenting IRL.

What are most women in here saying? That they would be against the specific approach shown in the OP? Because it now seems like the tide is turning to where they're not down for cold approaches period. In any form.

 

I'm an outlier in that, yes, I'm totally not down for cold approaches, period. Small chit chat with a stranger? Yes. More than that? No. I've literally never given a cold approaching guy a phone number or more information than my first name. Plenty of women do, though, so even if you try some sort of "put your number in my phone" thing, it'll probably work on some people.

I think the only thing that should be taken away from this video is that it's not really that big of a deal to approach people. Whether their method works for more than getting a phone number (fake or real) is besides the point. What matters is that you have to put yourself out there in some way and not let the fear of rejection keep you from talking to people.

Do you mean that you never get to know strangers or that you simply don't give out personal information until you've gotten to know a person who was once a stranger?
