tbis is a question
She wont ask why you are asking if you are providing a context for getting the number.. even if she doesn't LIKE YOU. Girls will give their numbers out to anyone.. for any real reason. Even if they have no intention of calling them back or going on a date. It's just a nice emotional spike that someone appreciated them enough to ask. If they do it it's not for you but purely selfish reasons. It's actually not about you AT ALL.
If you directly ask for her number it's not a game they are playing or a shit test. It's a reasonable question because you haven't established why you need it. There can be no mutual mystification. You should be seeding the idea of the date well before you ask for her number. YOU know why you are asking but she doesn't. She has no fucking idea.
The problem here is something you missed well before you asked for the number. You don't need deep commonalities with her but that obviously helps, but something as simple as showing her a cool bar she hasn't been to or a niche shop that sells cool things gives a plausible reason to ask for the number.
I really don't recommend you be too direct if does ask. This will only make her defensive and feel like a slut, which will cut off the good feelings and attractions and make her get the fuck out of there.
