Search Results: asking for a girl's number

So this is the same girl at work. Update so during break yesterday I saw her she was still on her break. I asked her if she was mad at me then she said no. I told her I didn't want her thinking I wasn't interested because I lost her number. She said no that I was good and that she wasn't mad. I told her "if you're not interested in me then just say so." She said "it's not that I am just not interested in that way, but we could still be friends." I said okay then, she said, "well so do you want my number?" I said sure in a unenthusiastic way. She called me so that way I could save her number like that. I just started asking her why she wasn't interested. I asked her to just give me a chance, just one date. She agreed, she said "and if it doesn't work out we could still be friends" again. I asked her if she was available this week and she said she wasn't. She said she has two jobs which checked out she actually does. Then I asked her what her schedule was for next week for both of her jobs and she hesitated when saying she doesn't know. Which for this job she has she really didn't. We don't get our next week schedule until Thursday. I sent her a text message last night saying that this was me and when she gets her schedule for next week to let me know so that way I could compare it to my next week's work schedule. It's been 17 hours now and she still hasn't responded back to my text.

Met a gal on a online dating site, and we're set to meet each other in-person tomorrow. I find it really interesting the differences between a woman's experience and a guy's experience. I've talked to a coworker who I got to know pretty well about her online dating experience, and she even introduced me to Bumble, but she's been the only gal who would tell me about her experience. (I've talked to a number of guys about it, pretty interesting our varying results)

Still, most people seem squeamish when talking about online dating (coworker has been more of a one off case, a few of the guys I talked to actually blushed when they started talking about it), so is it okay to talk about when you met her THROUGH online dating, or should I expect the same kind of squeamishness?

My reasoning: It would be like asking her about previous relationships/dates. It gives me an general idea of her boundaries, lets me know more about her personality, and what I should/shouldn't do to keep her (or if I want to keep her). And all that vice-versa, if we talk about it I do plan to include my experiences in the discussion.
