jonwashington Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 So there is a shirt I wanted online but it was sold out so I decided to go to the same store at the mall to see if they had it in stock. I walk in and see a very cute girl. So of course I ask her her if she can help me find it.(I had the item number written on my hand) She seemed nervous and was trying really hard for me to find it in the computer but seemed like she was nervous and lost track of what she was doing. So she asked for some help. I asked her if she was new and she said she had been there for 3 years. Lol. i decided to go find it but couldn't. then told her to come with me to the men's department to help me and she did just that. It seemed like she was happy with helping me. She then went upstairs. I followed her. I said hey forget the shirt I want to be your friend can I have your number. Next time I see something I like I can call you and you can tell me if you have it. ( obv my schmooze way of saying I think your really pretty I want to get to know you). So after my phone dying I had to write it on my hand again. So she gave me her number except the last digit. Example (768-888-887x) and told me to figure it out and smiled/laughed and walked away. And I was like ??you want me to plug in every number to figure it out? And she just kept laughing and saying figure it out. I then plugged in a number and found out it matches her name (i asked her for her name)on the comp so it's probably her but what's the deal with that? I told my mom and she said that's how girls are she was teasing with you and don't just hand out their numbers easily. What's you all think? (Btw im not ugly at all have had many beautiful girls as girlfriends. )but not a jerk unless playing around. I'm humble and emotionally intelligent (just not when it comes to me! Lol)u guys think it's her? Lemme know
rester Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I like her style. It's like a treasure hunt but all you need to do is call ten different people until you find the right one. It's not very hard and it makes a great first-time-meeting story.
gaius Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 It's an old way for the girl to see if the guy is interested enough to do some work to get her, but I don't think a lot of them realize nowadays you can just look it up online instead of calling 10 numbers.
Author jonwashington Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 So should I text her? I asked her for her name when I was in the store and one of the numbers that popped up was her first name. I'm assuming it's her. Or should I go back in the store next week and joke with her asking her if she's going to fill me in on the last digit
Author jonwashington Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Like walk in and hand her my phone. Be like hey put your number in my phone this time. I'm not coming in here again lol. Idk
gaius Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Just call so you can hear the voice and know it's her. She's not gonna be impressed if you can't even bring yourself to dial a number that might not be her.
Author jonwashington Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 I known but I never been put in this position. I feel good cuz I got a lil something but feel like a sap at the same time because she didn't just give me the whole number.
gaius Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 You can tease her a little bit when you do talk, or wait a few days to call in retaliation. I told mine I'd call her sometime in the next 10 days, but I wasn't going to tell her which. Just don't puss out when shes handed you a perfect opportunity to come off fearless. Trust me, it turns them on. 1
Author jonwashington Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 So I should call or go in the store again? Lolu think my situation I have the right to be fearless. I'd prob say the same to a buddy in this situation but when it's you its happening to its different
elaine567 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I then plugged in a number and found out it matches her name (i asked her for her name)on the comp so it's probably her OK, you now have her number, so man up and call her and ask her out. I would call first as opposed to texting, just so you are sure you have the right girl.
fitnessfan365 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Send one text first. 1) This gives her your number. She won't answer a call from a number she doesn't know. 2) It makes her demonstrate her true interest level. If she responds, then you call her. If she doesn't, then you don't have to waste time leaving a voice mail that won't get returned.
Author jonwashington Posted March 24, 2015 Author Posted March 24, 2015 So I texted the number that matched her name. The person said it wasn't her? I'm so confused right now. How can someone with the same name have an identical number unless it's 1 number off. Unless she decided to just deny it was her? I dnt get it guys I hate this sh*t because my ego is bruised after this stuff
fitnessfan365 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Don't even worry about it dude. With how many billions of women there are on the planet, why focus on just one? Besides, if it was her she did you a favor for showing her true colors right away. That's the indifferent attitude you need to have. Instead of wasting your time and money on a date, you got to find out she isn't worth your time with a simple text. Be glad.
Author jonwashington Posted March 24, 2015 Author Posted March 24, 2015 Well because im a jerk and feel I can get whatever girl I want. I can take hints but I just dnt get it. I know every guy gets turned down even Pitt and Clooney. But I literally feel like a dumped off orphan whenever it happens. I almost want to go back into the store and give her my phone and see if she puts her number in. Maybe that's a bad idea

If she intentionally gave you the blow off, and you show up for round two in person, that could come off as stalker-esque. Besides, if you're as good with women as you think you are, why would you be sweating one of them? Just go out tmrw and get another number. Guys that are good with women are indifferent to rejection because there's always options.
lop98 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Working in retail you get this all the time. We even had a code for cute customers, and of course you get nervous, and of course you enjoy the thrill of the 20-40 minutes he spends browsing the store and making eye contact and following you or saying lame jokes about the merchandise, probably quirky for them but since you hear that everyday ('would you say this looks good on me?' 'I'll need to call you to know if an item is in stock') it's a bit whatever, and you move on as soon as he leaves the store. I never gave my number to guys that obviously just found me attractive and out of the blue wanted a number, I was working and frankly hitting at some store employee you know nothing about but that you just find cute seemed a bit sad to me, I didn't trust that. One guy did made an impression on me, we had such an interesting conversation about traveling while he was shopping... he asked me out just like that and asked for my number and I told him to just give me his and I'd call him. I was so sure I'd call him, but retail is exhausting, days went by, you realize you only got all excited because retail can be damn repetitive and boring that some flirty exchange feels oh so refreshing. I never called him and then lost my phone (with his number in it). If I were you, I'd go back to the store and maybe ask another employee about her and give him/her your number so she can have it, maybe with a small note so you come off as a bit romantic and less of a stalker or shallow. Nothing to lose.
Author jonwashington Posted March 24, 2015 Author Posted March 24, 2015 Na yea ur definitley right. This has just never happened to me. Why would a girl give me something so close to her number if she had no intention of talking? Was she too dumb to come up with a fake number lol
Shepp Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Did you try all 10 possibilities or just the last number you thought it was? I don't understand what you were typing the number into that would pop up with a name? Google wouldn't do that for a mobile. And most mobile apps use the name you have the number saved as in your contacts. 1
Mrin Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Did you try all 10 possibilities or just the last number you thought it was? I don't understand what you were typing the number into that would pop up with a name? Google wouldn't do that for a mobile. And most mobile apps use the name you have the number saved as in your contacts. This. Just _call_ all 10 numbers. Will take 5 minutes. If they don't pick up you can hear the voice on the vmail greeting. If none are her - then she blew you off. Move on.
Gary S Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Her interest level is not high enough. If you will only date women more interested in you than you are in them, you'll never have a problem. The more interested they are in you, the less games they play.

Lol)u guys think it's her? Lemme know OP, I think you blew it when you kept pressing her for the rest of her number... You should have just played it cool and gave her a grin and made some flirtatious remark. Instead you came off as needy. But yeah considering you only have to try 10 numbers I would have just sent out 10 texts saying something like "Hey I still want my shirt " or something silly that she will be able to pick up on who you are (and something a random person would just ignore). What do you have to lose? 1
Rko28 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 I actually like her style, its that kind of playfullness that I really like in a girl and its easy to figure out. Save the number using the 10 different combinations and just go on whatsapp, when you see her profile pic on there then you will know its her. simple. Text her, if she replies great, if not, no harm done. Go for it!

What do you have to lose? ^ all of this! That kinda response would actually of been a turn on for me! It's light hearted and just the right anoint of hard to get! If you can't send 10 texts to 10 numbers you aren't that interested!
