I was chatting with an HB yesterday, a perfect ten both look wise and personality wise, and at some point she suggested I take her number, which I did. At which point I was momentarily taken aback as that was the second time in my life that I phone closed a girl (the first being a few hours beforehand).

Perhaps interpreting my hesitation as an IOD or a lack of desire to call her, she then asked me for my number as well.

However, all things considered I'm still unsure whether she was actually interested in me as a boyfriend or if she just wants to hang out with me as a friend.

So, my questions are as follows:
1) Is the fact that she asked me for my phone number an IOI or some roundabout way of putting me into a "just friends" category?
2) How do I proceed from here? Since we go to the same club, we will meet each other next Friday anyway, but if she gave me her phone number does that mean that she wants me to contact her before that?

Since it's only the second time that I talked to her, I feel that I should call her now to reinforce the connection between us that I've established. Otherwise, by the time Friday comes along we'll revert to being "just acquaintances".

Though I have a pathological fear of phones, so what would I say to her if I phoned her her?

Also, since I still don't know her intention (perhaps she really does want to be friends and will be taken aback if I suddenly show too much interest), how do I give her a disqualifier to make her think that I'm not after her as a boyfriend and just want us to be friends?

It's an IOI because she likes you. Obviously most of the story is in the way she said it and body language, but I don't think it's a bad thing. Contact her before that. If you don't game and f-close before Friday, then the club will be really awkward. Never go to a club with a girl you are in the middle of gaming, unless you are using her as a pivot to meet other girls. Try to set up a hangout situation before that, not a candle-lit dinner or anything. Make sure you kino escalate and at some point start teasing her less and start showing interest more.

this is my example towards your question...destroy the pathological phone fear like you would destroy a girls bitch shield......

1st off what you shouldve done is ask for her number as well as she asked for you number....

well in your situation since she has your number just dont bother waiting for her phone call, usually that means she just wants you to be in her friend zone. But if you see in the club again just be up front towards her and negg her about whats up with the phone call make it into an alpha situation

Thanks for the advice, guys. I will call her on monday and see if I can arrange a meeting before Friday.

Another question I have, what can I say to a girl after she gives me a phone number? Simply saying "I'll call you later" or "we can hang out sometime" sound too plain and DLV. Is there anything I can say that will create an image of me as the prize and make her want me to call her.

call or text her within 2 days.

Also if you are not as into the girl whose number you got before hand, use her as practice for the girl you are really into. LOL... why not, right? What do you have to lose?
