_______________________________________________________
Sidenote - I met this cutie at the club last night. Caramel, had to be like 6'4. Has locks though... they were neat... but that's not my thing... But he was sexy so maybe he can get me to like them.
So the question for the day is :
What does it mean when a man asks you to take his number instead of asking for yours?
I have a complex about calling dudes first... so when he asked me to put his number in my phone, I told him to just take mine. I want you to show the initiative first. So he handed me his phone and I put my number in his. He had a raggedy old school cell phone btw too which was kinda a turn off which I didn't even realize until I saw it that I could be turned off by the type phone someone has. Anyway, what is the psyche behind taking someone's number versus giving yours men?

It means that he has issues just like you do.
wow, you are turned off by a person's phone? didn't know that could happen.
anyhow, i give my number out ALL the time. you said that you want him to show initiative, well that is him showing that he is interested in you. you know as well as anyone else that you do not want just ANYBODY having you phone number. the fact that he does not have an issue about giving you his number should speak volumes. the was i see it, if i approach you and talk to you, then the least you can do is show me that you are interested by calling me.
What does it mean when a man asks you to take his number instead of asking for yours?
He was trying to put the ball in your court, that way he knows how serious you are.
Ive done it before but usually with women that I am not really interested after their first impression.
Kinda like "well maybe there is something there but I am not going to waist time effort on it, trying to find out."
I would say he wants to gauge your interest just as much as you want to gauge his. I've done both but there was no great reason behind it. That's just how it happened. We not that deep.. lol
lol @ realhustla
@Stew - usually I am not... like I will joke on dudes for having a sidekick... which I hate... a grown man should not have a sidekick... kicks are for kids... and I am a bit of a digital junkie... and his phone was dumb old skool... looked like the first ever flip phone released... or something that you would get from one of those pre-paid cell phone services... and if you have a pre-paid cell phone that means you have bad credit... I mean they give out phones for free now that look a helluva lot better than the one he had...
@Dave - so I guess I'm just over analyzing again... I keep forgetting ya'll aren't that deep Dave...lol
I agree with Clnmike
Dude probably finds you interesting but isn't hard pressed.
Call and leave a message inviting him to Brunch this Sunday..G.Bar in the bronx has Fantastic Brunch.
Nothing wrong with making the first move. You are The Renaissance Woman right?
@Slish - He has my number duh... I can't call him!
my bad but i had to lol @ slish wit that smart a$$ mouth!!! lol
lol @ his phone being dumb old school!!!
and i agree with the fellas, its usually a good way to gauge a females interest. that way the ball is in the females court and it takes the pressure off us.
lol I give people the side eye if their phone is current. I'm saying it needs to do more then make and receive calls. lol
@LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL - I am so laughing right now -
I am turned off by OLD phones too - I had that happen to me-- I wanted to turn around -
At any rate - I love dreads...if neat .. they can be so sexy - at any
I believe a man should call you first....
Hello! There's nothin' "dread-ful" about LOCS!!! %)
There is power in being in charge of the asking! I do not mean to manipulate...but power in being A GROWN WOMAN who can certainly ask a man out, call him or not, see him or not.
If you are intrigued then by all means call him and as Mr. Slish suggested perhaps brunch.
@unknown - I know right... and look who done added a damn pic to they profile... you aint unknown anymore miss diva
@trina - I just prefer men that dont have more hair than me... so that leaves very little on top of their head
I'm not fond of hair on men either, I think it may be a southern gal thing, cause up here on Boston the men LOVE there hair!!
*lol*
I smell what you cooking Eb, but rules are made to be BROKEN!!
-OG
I prefer to have a number given to me,so that I call on MY own time, Only I don't call, A text should suffice
Okay Eb. I am gonna go ahead and tell you the ugly truth that the rest won't.
You need to work on that elitist attitude regarding his damn phone! You ain't ready to deal with a person with that kinda hang up! WTH? Call? SMDH...
And I have no idea what it means either way regarding exchanging phone numbers. I am way too pragmatic to worry about that stuff. But you knew that right?
sorry i'm late with this one lil sis
if he gave you his number then i don't think he's that interested. back in my day (lol)...if i gave a female my number it was b/c i really wasn't interested and i thought..."if she calls, i might talk to her...or i might not."
i agree with the fellas. he was testing your interest but i think he probably wasn't that interested to begin with. maybe he just gave it...just b/c he felt it was the thing to do.
you aren't gonna "chase" this dude so i dunno about this one.
good post...
btw...i like the hard knock show on the cowboys. pretty damn good!
Hey Eb, I nominated you for a Brillante Premio Weblog Award! :)
a dude gives you his number... he's lazy and wants you to do all the work. a man will chase if he's interested.
doncha just love those myspace quizzes?
Hey Sistah!
I enjoyed reading this post...one of my things to do is have a top notch child care center and the name would be Skies the Limit! I almost forgot that was one of my dreams...thanks for choosing that as your direction!
from my experience i do that to change it up a bit... it would be nice for a woman to feel what i feel and call me 1st... and it also shows that she is genuinely interested!... and it shows something in her character that i like.
good ques... and lmao @ 'turned off by a cell phone'
Interesting post.
I agree with you though, I prefer giving out my number rather than receiving theirs. Turns out the guy who gave me his number instead wasn't that interested in me.. so i guess it's true! lol but na.. i dunno because it was more complicated than that.
I never have had a problem with giving my number out....not that I have had that many ops either.
The phone thing...that will be a new blog...coming soon.
dang eb u right now i gotta go change my name & stuff when it took me 4eva to come up with that one! lol
i tend agree w/ 12kyle & emeritus. when a guy is really interested he just isn't gonna be so laid-back and nonchalant. keep in mind u met him @ the club though...take everything & everyone @ the club w/ a grain of salt.
@Age- You want to be 30? Don’t rush your years!!!!
@Mysterious Phone Call- I have a similar problem...This guy has almost the same # as me; the last 4 digits 3718 his is 3817...that’s not the bad part...His NAME is the same as mine?!! WTF But he's African and has an Accent so when people accidentally call me...they say my name and I'm like "yeah"...than they say this is not _____ I'm like yes it is! lol Vice Verse people call him and think it's me playing around on the phone.
@ Question of the day- Sometimes guys don’t know if the girl is really interested in him, so he gives his # out. A girl can always give a number out and not really be interested, just to get rid of the guy.
go with the heart and not the surface
too many men and women already look at the surface of a person and not at their character, home training or content
very insightful
e2deep: that's exactly what I mean!!!I mean I don't know if this is everywhere but guys here in Fl have upgraded their Phone asking game and I kid you not for the last 3 times I've been put on the "let me call you" corner, THEY TRY THE NUMBER RIGHT THERE in front of me!!!!!!Is like, DAMN!! now I have no recourse other than save your name and never pick up!
But if a dude give me his number is on my terms and then if I'm interested I will shoot you a text with my real number which I will pick up and you can take it from there (yeah Eb I won't necessarily reply to a first date text thing but that's just me letting him know: " ok I called, here is my number Use It!"
love the questionaire, makes you really think! and if a guy gave me his number that's great, as long as I didn't approach him..I"m good.
I agree with the blogger that said, "puts the ball in your court."
Whats with the sidekick hate? Lol.
Eb You know I can't read....lol
@Q - yeah... the whack dudes done stepped they game up... I cant stand when they do that mess - call me right now... ugh!
@mclovin - KICKS R 4 KIDS...lol
@slish - obviously...lol; now when you gon hook me up... mr. matchmaker
Cute questions.
I'd rather have a dude call me first. It just shows me that he is really interested.
i know i'm probly alil late on this one but u keep up THREE blogs & still have time to work, party, look FAB and take pics of it all?!?!? uh uh what type a juice UUUU drinkin?
could it have been his club phone? i met a dude once that had a raggedy phone and he said he was tired of losing his nicer phones in the club...
thanks for the acknowledgement :o) your answers were interesting!
I've only ever offered one woman my number first, and I'm still married to her 20 years later. With me it was that I was so head over heels for her that I wanted to demonstrate that to her without putting her on the spot by asking for her number. The fact that it was a very public and busy business setting (a big 8 accounting firm), and the fact that opportunities to talk to her were fleeting and rare may have had something to do with it, as well. I already had the number written as to be prepared in case our next encounter was as brief, out in-the-open and disjointed as the previous ones were. Fortunately, after I handed it to her and was prepared to jump right back into the rat race she rejoined with, "Next time you're able to stop by my desk I'll have mine to give to you, too." Needless to say, I got back with alacrity!!!
FYI, You can consider that meme jacked!! :-)
LOL @ you being rubbed the wrong way by dude with the older model cell phone.
I ain't even gone front...it bothers me too!!
Sad thing is I got the nerve to be have ill feelings when I don't even have a cell phone myself.
AIn't that about some bullish?!?!?!
well, sounds like you wont be contacting the dread, with bad credit, who lacked initiative. lol. dont be so harsh. he just trying to skip the run around.
As a man, I would be ultra confident and really could do without the lady if I asked her to take my number.
OR
I'm not confident enough to ask a seemingly confident chic for her number.
Either way, I'm really not into her.
