When do you ask for the number?

I think that if you get along great there is never a right time. Just do it when you feel the time is right. Girls love when a guy asks for her number. Take a risk go for it. And sometimes there is a "too late point". Don't let her get away if you think there could be something.

I usually don't ask for a number. I sneakily take their phone and put my number in it. If they're observant the way I like them - they'll notice my name in their phone & call.

You can definately ask for it soon; like the next time you see her. If you guys had a great conversation, she will gladly give you her number. And she probably wants to!

I think since you had a good conversation with her it is okay to ask her for a number. One time this guy asked me if he could borrow my phone & then he called his cell phone and stored my #. That is a cheesy and indirect way to get someones number, but it works. However, the direct approach is the best way.

I think if you have had a good conversation with her and you seemed to get along pretty well, you'd be safe to ask for her phone number at any time. Next time you talk to her, just ask if she'd be willing to exchange phone numbers to talk outside of school (or wherever you usually talk to her)!

Here's what you do, before the conversation gets boring and awkward, make up and excuse to leave it doesn't matter if you have no where to go or no where to be, make up something like oh hey I have to get back to my friends, but let me get your number, because I want to take out to dinner this weekend. Usually they will give it to you, put it in your phone and call her phone that way you can make sure she gave you her real number. Then leave, say I'll call you to set up a time this week so keep your weekend open.

If your feeling good about the convo and it's flowing nicely, just give her yours (whenever, it won't matter if you're hitting it off). If she digs you she'll call, if not, then you don't have to face face to face rejection and can move on easily.

Ask for her number like hey what's your number and don't give an option, eg don't say "can I have our number?" cos chances are that she'd say no but if you ask her "what's your number?" and make sure you give her your phone and let her type it in herself.

If it seems like she's interested in talking to you more, you can turn that around and use it as a good segue to getting her number. Personally, I never ask IF I can have her number, I just ask what it is. Politely and in context of course. (I'm guessing there'll be people who disagree with that approach). I'd say something along these lines:

"Hey, I've definitely enjoyed talking to you, what's your number so we can keep in touch and grab a drink/movie/etc. Some time?"

As for the timing. Whenever you feel like you want to spend more time with her outside of your usual routine, that's a good time to ask.
