I got this one last night...

It stupefied me, and I ended up failing the shit test..

Even today I'm still at a loss for a good comeback to this...

All I can come up with is:

"Because I give the best phone sex"

Any help here, fellas?

we had interesting conversation that I wanted to continue some other time.

adding I really need to go now, friends are waiting for me or any other excuse that would work.

I suppose if I get this from a girl, I haven't built enough comfort or attraction before asking for the number..

The girl who said this last night had a bf.. It wasn't so much a comfort thing, as she gave me her myspace info..

i woulda said something like "hey, you should feel honored im allowing you to give me ur number"

your not the average girl

your interesting

its was fun talking to you

your really koo and helpful

because im interested

because i want to call you

hahha your not boring i guess

i thought you wanted to give me your number

if i could i would talk to you longer but i have to go

why? why not.

Try those out and tell me how it goes if you get the chance. Artist

Fuck answering her question. Don't let her be the one asking. Shoot her a question back. I like "Why not" or "Are you crazy? How could you NOT want to give me your number?"

BE UNAFFECTED ... Like you really give a shit if you got her number, you gave her a shot and she blew it.

It really should never be so forward when asking. I.e. I never ask, "Hey how about giving me your number?"

I always word it in a much more subtle way, one little method I like is to talk about a really funny video on youtube (While I'm in the comfort building phase) and then tell her I HAVE to text her a link. Then just hand her my phone and have her put in her number.

This way I'm not being so blunt, it's logical that she should give me her number, hell I have a hilarious video to show her!

You don't have to use this exactly but I think you get the point. Make plans for next Tuesday then hand her your phone so you can "make sure you outfits don't clash" or anything else. The bottom line is don't make it a big deal.

Actually, said with a smile, this would work WELL.

And, considering I actually do give great phone sex, lol . . .

Anyway, what I would likely do if I got this response is . . .
Since I just put my phone into her hands expecting her to put her info in (and they do), if she came back with this line, I'd take the phone right back, shut it, and say "thanks for not contaminating it with your negativity."

That is, if she said it being an obvious bitch. If she said it with a smile, I'd look at her and say . . . "seriously". Then flash a smile of my own.

I'm a fan of (and I use this all the time):
Great chat, blah blah. ah..

OK, write down your number for me..

Or, I will pull my phone out and say "ok, so it's area code 775..... (assuming the sale here). Either work. The more blunt and direct, the better..

"Hey, interesting conversation. Give me your number" (say it with confidence and with a certainty that there is no way POSSIBLE that she will not hand over her number.. You ASSUME the sale.
It's that simple.

I think girls lose interest at the point when the man asks for her number is some weakling way... "You know, i enjoyed talking to you. Why don't you, if you don't mind, writing down your number so I can call somethimg

Worthless.

Be direct.. Be bold.. Have balls... Women love all three

I'm just a RAFC. I know nothing yet.
However, I have so far always used "This is a great conversation that we're having, isn't it? We should talk again soon, don't you think? How can we get in touch again?"
I am trying to get her to volunteer her number to me. If it works, great. If not, then I didn't have attraction; it's my fault. Either way, I didn't ask for her number. I remain Desireless, and Gone, if perhaps not Excellent.

The problem here is you're blatanlty ASKING. "isn't it?" "don't you think?" You're not CONFIDENT about yourself. This will directly effect how many numbers you get.

And, welcome to the forum American Smooth

I was out with The Saint on Saturday night and he gave me shit for beating around the bush and then trying to justify giving me her number. He told me that he never does that, he doesn't play around, he just goes, "Give me your number" or what he did to the girl I blew it with, "I'm leaving in minute" then handed her his phone.

I typically was doing subtle, but I find that letting them know you want their number and being able to say it right up front, works just as well if not better, as long as you have the confidence.

LOL, sounds like me and The Saint would get along well.

At the point when you ask for her number, I'm not sure it makes a real big difference how you ask-- so long as you.... ask for her number, lol

"Beating around the bush" by saying "this has been an interesting conversation. What's the best way for us to keep in touch" (or something similar) may get you an email address (which, in reality, may be better than a number since she is more likely to give this to you).

If you ask for her number, you're either going to get it or not. So, I prefer the direct approach:

"Give me your number"
