Asking for someone's number

<p>I've never done it before. How should I do it? </p>

<p>"Hey, let's keep up this summer, I'd love to talk to you occasionally ... hands phone over" </p>

<p>And when should I call if I get the number? Just anytime? I don't want to call and find out that it's inconvenient, or call and have nothing to say ...</p>

<p>Well this is for real, I really like this girl … not sure if youtube videos help. </p>

<p>I guess the best thing is to be spontaneous rather than rehearsed, and just see what happens - that’s the joy of life - but still, I’d like to have done at least a little homework before I ask her.</p>

<p>It’ll come naturally. There is no need to rehearse.</p>

<p>It’ll come naturally. Also, don’t call her. Text her and ask to hang out. You shouldn’t call until you’ve hung out a few times. And when you do call it should have a purpose, like asking for help on homework or even inviting her somewhere, and then you can slyly try to turn it into a conversation by changing the subject after the initial question is answered.</p>

<p>^So many rules :eek:. </p>

<p>I’m so nervous. Maybe I should take a hard jog before I see her. The exercise induced euphoria should help.</p>

<p>They’re more of guidelines. If you have a general idea of what you’re gonna say, maybe you’ll feel less awkward, ya know?</p>

<p>Correction: 2300 ;).</p>

<p>^HA. Sad but true…</p>

<p>Dude, don’t stress it. I’ll admit I’m not the best at girls, but it’s not as hard as it seems. When I want to get a girls number, I usually just start a conversation with her on Facebook or something, and then say “Hey I’ve got to <em>do something</em>, but you should text me. <em>your number here</em>”. It’s simple, not hard, and it leaves the decision up to her so she doesn’t feel pressured. If she texts you, than sweet! If not, then maybe it’s not the right girl.</p>

<p>^LOL. just made my day.</p>

<p>Anyways, just say hey wanna swap phone numbers. It isn’t that hard really. Just be casual and you don’t need to rehearse. Don’t call, until you have become pretty good friends. Start out by texting like how do you feel and what did you think of… Soon you can become a pimp after some practice.</p>

<p>Maybe you can convince her about how good your genetics are. Tell her how smart your kids with her will be.</p>

<p>Screw girls. Focus on gpa </p>

<p>I used to say that to myself, but then I realized how pathetic is an existence without contact with other human beings.</p>

<p>Talk to her for a while, then at some point invite her somewhere and be like “hey here’s my number in case you can’t find me when you get there.” Ideally it’s a casual thing.</p>

<p>Don’t stress about it. Girls aren’t as scary as we seem sometimes. And most girls take it as a compliment if you give them your number, even if they pretend like they’re not happy about it. </p>

<p>If you’re friends with her, you talk to each other and she seems nice, she’ll probably respond well. And like other people said, text her, don’t call her. That eliminates your “what if she’s busy?” worry and gives you time to think of something interesting/funny/kind/etc. to say back.</p>

<p>Just be confident and if you’re not confident, pretend like you are and eventually that fake confidence will turn into real confidence. I’m sure you’ll be fine. Good luck! :)</p>

<p>LOL it’s so easy and it’s so natural! Don’t ask her if you don’t even know her name. I don’t think there should be any rules, just talk to her for a bit, ask her about her day and school and blah blah and just ask. lol.</p>

<p>Practice on a random girl and see how it works before you leap. Practice makes one perfect! :D</p>

<p>Oh Iceqube, you and your awkward social endeavors.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Such truth. This thread is endearing.</p>

<p>^^Haha. Just ask, IceQube! It really isn’t that hard… you can go with the fake making up an excuse route, or just ask to “keep in touch.”</p>
