Nope, it's actually liberating and it works even better if you think the guy is holding his tounge or holding back a bit with his communication with you because it lets him know that your into it and a lot of times removes the fear that he could piss you off. A few months back a girl said, let me get your number. I was speechless, I tried to recoop and say i was actually about to ask for yours (lame but true, she wouldn't stop talking) and she doubled down with a playful "well you didn't sooo..." anyway she handed my phone back and said text me. I said sure and did just that a few days later, but the gloves were off with me knowing her guard was down i stopped holding out. She showed me she could be kind of aggressive so it gave me the right to be. Could just be me though.

It is not weird. Just ask him. He will be flattered. Is he shy? Sometimes you have to take things into your own hand.
Why do you want his number? Do you want to ask him out? Do some homework? Fool around? Be his gf? If you are comfortable with the WHY part then go for it. What do you think40 Reply
I was nervous about that too but I was sure that the guy liked me, and I was a little vague but I messaged him asking how we dont have each others phone numbers, then he said 'you want my number? You never ask for it' then I immediately thought I CAN ask for it and he doesn't mind. You can try something like that if you want but there's really no need to worry or be nervous about. I just get that way easily over everything

+1 yliterally anything can be an excuse to get someones number if you are uncomfortable with asking him straight up. i've gotten guys' numbers cuz they wanted me to send them a funny picture or cuz we needed to do a group project or asking them to text me the name of a band they recommended or just by taking their phone to play their games and then adding my number and telling them to text me. just go for it!

+1 yIt's humorous for me to read most of the responses. My opinion would be as follows. If your interested in this guy and you think that he is available and not fawning over another girl, then I would simply ask him to call YOU at a pre arrainged time. If he isn't sharp enough to pick up on your initiative simply say that you would just like to chat. Also by me saying that he isn't sharp enough is NOT a knock to this guy, there are a lot of US genuinely nice guys that don't quickly pick up on these things, but catch up very fast by the way dont have this discussion in front of a bunch of other girls or his buddys. best of luck.

This is pretty good advice! I might try this.. Bit is it too forward? Would a guy actually call?
- +1 y
if he is attracted to you of course he will call, just be prepared to follow through when he does call. Is he much older than you? your profile says that your under 18 if he is over 18 please leave him alone
If your pretty and confident enough in your approach the guy will be over the moon you asked. I'd love a girl to take the initiative for once and ask me. My ex when I was 18 approached me and told me straight out she thought I was attractive and would I mind taking her out one time. I remember my guts flipped with excitement and I could barely believe what I'd heard. It was an amazing feeling though. She was gorgeous. You know how they say in films, 'I'm dreaming, I'll wake up in a minute and it'll all be gone.' That's exactly what I thought at the time. Give the guy a treat and tell him. Believe me girls have the upper hand when it comes to choosing a partner. Most guys won't say no to a good looking girl
10 ReplyDon't play games. If you like him and ask him out. If he is into you, he'll be flattered and exchange numbers with you. If he is not, he'll tell you and you'll not waste a whole lot of time and emotions over him. And if he is te kind of guy who thinks men should make te first move, then he's too backward for you anyway.
20 Replyif the social media is not working maybe he doesn't have a phone! but if he does you can just simply pick a random place were you guys are just doing whatever it is that you guys are doing an when you leave just say "do you want my number so you can text me later, and so we can pick up were we left off?" <<< you won't sound "thirsty" like some people call it! and he will have your number! and you did not even had to ask him for he's...
00 ReplyIt depends on how well you know him. Try to have a conversation first. You can try to let him laugh a few times, that will make things A LOT easier, for both of you. Then after one of the jokes (preferably in the middle of the conversation) ask for his number.
You can maybe say like:
'Hey, you seem funny/interesting/smart/nice (*Note: any compliment will do i think*). Can I have your number, so we can chat together more often?'
Good luck with it!00 Reply
+1 yIs it weird for a girl to ask a guy for his number? is it weird if a girl asks a guy out? is it weird if a girll... NO its not weird. Do what you feel like doing and dont make it about gender. Just ask him. If he doesn't understand your language. Give him your number.. he'll get it.

+1 yIt's not a big dea. Be least bothered of what he's gonna think about it cuz he ain't thinking anything...
But still if your not comfortable and he's in your grade or something you can just ask for the number that you want some help regarding the study material or aomething you know...00 Replyjust be strait forward, say hay, whats your number anyway? most likely he will give it to you without thinking twice about it. then just say thanks and walk away. most guys don't stress about giving out numbers, they stress about asking for numbers.
20 ReplyJust do it, worst he can say is no. That only means you don't have his number, and that's where you stand now right? Just in case he does have your number ready, the foresight and confidence will catch his attention.

So it's to forward?
find something that you both enjoy (movies, pub/club) and hint to him "we should catch up sometime." if he doesn't bite say... "what are u doing this weekend" leave a bit of a pause... if he likes u, he will agree!
