Get their # or give your #?

[skydiver00]

When your out and about and strike up a conversation w/someone of interest, when parting do you prefer to give your # and put the ball in their court or get there's and be in control??

Maybe it does even matter since I guess either way you would be showing that you are interested. I guess im just curious as to others thoughts on it...

I rather have their number because if I give them mine, I get this feeling that they will never call or atleast text lol... Now that I think about it, I rather get their number and give them mine that way if she wants to call, she can whenever she feels like it (also, cuz I know some ppl, me included, don't pick up numbers that they don't know, so if she has my number, its more likely she'll pick up).

I'd rather give my number. I've never been in a situation where I had to call first, but I know I probably wouldn't do it. The good thing about giving my number is that I can always not answer if I change my mind.

I do better giving them my number. I get nervous about calling them and often don't do it because I psych myself out. If they are strangers, that is.

We as men are almost always chasing...

 

Which means you have to follow up on her, not the other way around.

 

Get her #, don't fall for the "I'll just take your number"

i get the girl's number. few circumstances where i gave out mine.

I always do both. When I get their number I text them something really quick so they can save my number. Or I have them put my number in their phone, save it, then call me really quick so I have theirs as well. A lot of people, myself included, don't pick up calls from unknown numbers.

I honestly prefer to give my phone number and ask them to call.

 

Because it puts the woman at ease and puts the ball in her court. Thus, I am giving her time to think if she would at all feel comfortable contacting me. Because if your game is tight enough, she will take a chance and call you. But you have to make her feel comfortable enough to want to take a risk.

If you are a guy, don't give the girl your number.

 

Some people might not care, but I personally find it such a turn-off. To me it says lack of initiative and I would not call a guy if he gave me his #/card instead of taking mine.

 

Granted, not all girls feel as I do - but why take the risk?

On the contrary - the tighter the guy's game, the more confused I get about such phone habits. And few women, I believe, want the ball in their court.
