<p>I have been interacting with "Physics Boy A" quite a bit lately and I finally feel as though he is interested in me, or at least that he could be. However, I will be traveling overseas next tuesday to france and will not be returning home until two days before winter break begins and as it is a school trip, my teachers have encouraged us to refrain from attending school at all on that day before break! I don't want all of the progress that I feel I've made with Physics Boy A to go to waste during that time, however, and I am considering giving him my cell phone number so as to encourage increased conversation. My cousin told me that the best way to give Physics Boy A my number would be to send it to him via facebook chat the day before I leave for France, with something like "let's keep in touch over winter break!" attached. What do you think I should do? He is kind of shy and I worry that even if I give him my number, he won't really do anything about it...I'm so confused! I just know that I don't want to have to go for so many weeks without talking to him!</p>
<p>Why don’t you ask for his number? I know it’s not the “norm” or whatever, but you could wait for the right moment and say something like “Hey, can I have your number? I’ll tell you all about my trip when I get back. :)” It’s kind of lame, but it works. Lol.</p>
<p>Also, have fun in France! I went during the summer and had a great time. Where are you going?</p>
<p>^How about this: I send him a note with “Hey, I think we should keep in touch over winter break! Here’s my number, ________, can I have yours?” I’m a little too timid to actually walk up to him and flat out ask him for his number, but the other day I threw a wad of paper at him when he wouldn’t stop laughing about something–he was making me laugh too hard–and he opened it, as though he thought I’d written something inside of it. Then he just threw it back and blushed. I was thinking of doing the same sort of thing, but actually-obviously, haha-writing something on it this time :)</p>
<p>I’m going for the Model United Nations Conference in Paris! I’m so excited! 
Where did you go during your trip to France?</p>
<p>^I think the note thing sounds really cute. Go for it! :)</p>
<p>That sounds really cool! I went all over. I stayed in St. Malo, Blois, Paris, Bagnols-sur-Ceze, and Cannes but visited a few other places. It was amazing! I’m so jealous of you. Lol.</p>
<p>Well, if he’s interested in you–and it sounds like he is–then giving him your number would make him extremely happy. While it might be hard to talk while you’re in France (time differences and all), give it to him now so he knows you’re interested in continuing conversation.
Even if you don’t get to talk that much, a couple weeks isn’t gonna kill your chances.</p>
<p>However, Bry’s suggestion works too.</p>
<p>Do you think it would be better for me to deliver it to him in person or to message him on fb chat with it? The reason why I ask is because chances are I would be uncomfortable giving it to him in person…maybe it’s good that I challenge myself, though…who knows…haha</p>
<p>Haha, if people put as much thought into politics as a teenager does into dating, we’d be a freaking utopia.</p>
<p>Give him your phone number, and if he doesn’t call first, you initiate conversation. Or you could just ooVoo. If you feel uncomfortable giving it to him in person, doing it online will make it easier and things will pretty much progress exactly the same way. Though I do think talking in person is better, especially since you won’t be seeing each other for awhile.</p>
<p>Text it like it’s hot.</p>
<p>ergh. assuming you’re american, you do realized you will have to pay extra for calling/texting overseas? </p>
<p>-.-" sorry if i put a damper on things…</p>
<p>gchat/fbchat ftw?</p>
<p>^I won’t be calling him from overseas…winter break is two weeks long and I’ll be missing two weeks of school prior to the start of winter break to travel to Paris.</p>
<p>Then good for you!
haha 
</p>
<p>have fun in paris you lucky … yeah :D</p>
<p>I say make it online; keep it casual.</p>
