Catlady15 Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 I’ve been talking to a guy that comes into the shop where I work for some time now, last week he gave me his number and said here’s my number if you want to go for a drink or meet for a coffee, I would really like to but I’m to nervous to call him and not sure if I should text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SophiaG Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Is this someone you only see as a friend, since you posted this in the friendship forum? It sounds like he wants to date you. I'd text him first if calling feels unnerving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would text him and casually suggest a time/place for said coffee/drink. Also in case it becomes something more I do think you should step away from the FWB situation in your other post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherylyn Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Going out for alcoholic drinks? I agree with others, I would do something safer and get to know him better before alcohol. Play it safe. Meet for a walk, tea, coffee, snack or lunch. Something like that. If you're uncomfortable calling him, text is good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogacat Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Exciting. I recall a time a guy gave me his number, I in turn texted him my phone number and he called. It's kind of like saying he's interested and wants to see you are interested too... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShySoul Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 No harm can come from a simple phone call. And many good things could happen as a result. As someone who regrets not taking opportunities when they have present themselves, don't let moments like this slip by. Seize the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissCanuck Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I would call, yes. He is obviously going to be happy to hear from (and is likely waiting to hear from you) if he offered his number. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SophiaG Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 If you never gave him your number your call could be declined or ignored due to it being an unknown caller. Too many spam calls these days. Text him your number or just say who you are and ask him when he wants to get that coffee, or suggest a few times you are available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostandhurt Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Be brave and just do it!!! We all make these things scary when they simply are not. Don't let fear control your life, this could be something awesome. Do it soon or he will think you are not interested. Let us know what he says and how it goes.

ShySoul Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Think it's a unaniamous - call. Be it friends or more, you'll never know unless you that first step. Hope it turns out well for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catlady15 Posted September 21 Author Share Posted September 21 So we went out for drinks and a bite to eat and we had a good time. Only thing is I’m not sure about it all I’m not sure if I’d go out again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShySoul Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 If you had fun, what's the issue? No pressure. Don't do anything you aren't comfortable with doing. Completely your call. Just wondering why since there doesn't seem to be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What worked for me personally if I wasn't sure was to give it a couple of dates to see if I had the desire to kiss him or I guess enjoyed kissing him. But it's up to you! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
