It's probably better if the woman gives the guy her phone number instead. I'll explain why:
This has happened to me numerous times... I'm talking to a woman. She seems interested, touching my arm/shoulder several times, she's smiling, her eyes are really bright, etc. I'm thinking, "She really likes me," so I ask for her phone number. The smile immediately fades from her face, she stiffens up and she asks me, "Can I have your phone number instead?" So I give her my phone number. Wanna guess how many women have called me afterwards? Zero. Lesson learned: If a woman gives a guy anything other than her phone number when he asks for her phone number, she's saying "no."
I'm not saying the situation you described is the same; in that situation, the woman intends to give the guy a call. However, an interested guy would not have a problem calling a woman and asking her out. He just needs to know she's interested, which giving him her phone number would accomplish.
Would I give out my number to any girl? No. If a girl walked up to me on the street and asked for my number, my initial response would be (jokingly): "Damn, not even gonna buy me dinner first?" That would be a tactic by me to gauge the personality and mindset of the girl. However, as far as a girl I know casually or maybe have seen around work or campus asking me for my number? Hell, I'd be all for it. I'm a pretty open person so there really aren't any defined lines with me as to where "too" forward is. However, I think in this day and age, a girl asking for a number shouldn't carry any sort of stigma. I wouldn't mind it, at all. As a matter of fact, I think it shows confidence.

just happened to me actually, that's why I was searching for what others were sayn about it haha. I would be open to giving her my number as long as I thought she was cool..aka attractive, not annoying, etc...and I don't know if I would automatically think she was interested. If she hit me up first I would consider her interested.
Honestly with how common cell phones are these days if a girl asked me for my phone number I wouldn't even consider it flirting. Casual acquaintances ask me for my phone number sometime and I give it to them
id feel so happy and excited that a girl was finally interested in me... I wouldent give it out to any girl unless I knew her intentions etc first
Shit I love it when that happens! Less work for me and it's a definite she's interested.. If there's a guy you like go for it., in fact in a survey it said that guys prefer girls to make the first move..
If I knew it was because she liked me, id be flattered. Not too forward at all.
anygirls ask for my number ,ill give her .
I would be flattered
