Should I ask him for his number, give him my number, or wait for him to ask for my number?

I really like this guy, don't want to seem too interested by freaking him out. I've been waiting for this guy to give me his number or ask for mine. But two weeks later no such luck. Is it best that I wait for him to give me his number, or should I give him my number or ask him for his number? I know it seems like a dumb question but I don't want to screw this up, I'm pretty sure he likes me.

This is a hard call.

But I think if you have talked to this guy and you are really interested then you should just go for it and give him your number.

Guys can be just as shy as us girls when they are interested in someone.

So if you think he won't try getting your number anytime soon, go for it and give him your number.

That way if he texts you then you know he wants to talk to you, and if he doesn't I guess it's time to move on.

He could just be shy. I say you go for it and make the first move. Trust me, if he likes you..you won't freak him out by asking him for his digits. If he likes you, he'll be relieved you asked! Sometimes guys won't make the first move because he's waiting to see signs that you like him back. Just go for it! Chances are you'll succeed and get his number. Good luck! :3

Asking for his number is a waste. Give him yours and act confident when you do.

Why is asking for his number a waste?

Once you initiate the calling thing, the guy knows he has you and is possibly going to get bored or move on (unless you already know each other well through friends, etc.). If you give him your number (and the choice to call), he feels empowered -- which he likes -- and will call you. This doesn't apply to nervous indecisive guys (who you don't want to spend time chasing anyhow).

Mmm...good insight. Never thought of that! Shy guys will probably be RELIEVED and praising the heavens if you gave them your number, though. Hahaha.

Not really, because the shy guys start over-thinking the calling process and miss out on nice opportunities. If you call them, though, they may feel initially flattered, then ultimately take it for granted that you'll call/text them, which is not a great habit. Let the guy initiate the first time or two, then you can text/talk as desired without too much fuss/drama. No matter what era we're in, a man likes to feel like a man.

Just give him your number. You could also ask to swap numbers, so you can also call him. Perhaps he's just shy, and even calling you may be difficult for him.

Don't put your number into his phone when he's not looking, because most guys don't like people working on their phone and for example I have a password on mine so you wouldn't be able to program your number anyway.

Take his phone when he's not looking and program your number into it. Then ask him to call you...when he finally asks, simply say "Look with your heart and you shall find it"
