| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/5/2005 10:24:11 AM | 1. Why don't women call?
2. Why don't women just be honest and say no thanks if they're not interested?
3. Why beat around the bush and BS all the time?
4. Thank god for Eastern European women who get to the point!!  | |

| Why do online guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/5/2005 10:51:13 AM | First off I don't think it is a wise idea to give a guy I met online my phone number. What if he turns out to be a real jerk, you going to change your phone number so he can't bother you? If I was interested in an online guy I would make arrangements to meet at a public place like McDonalds or Waffle House and then after chatting with him face to face I felt he was ok, then I might give him my number, but only if he also gives me his. A guy who won't give you his number but he wants yours is most likely married or involved with someone. JMO

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/5/2005 10:59:59 AM | Err hang on just a minute.......why is it just guys that are taking the flack here??
I seem to remember about a week ago a girl from this site who Id been seeing agreed to meet me so I went off and arranged an expensive fun night out (tickets to a great comedy club no less)...only for her to disappear completely and refuse to take my calls and leave me heartbroken and flat broke!
She knows who she is and lets face it, women are WAY more cruel than men!!!!!!!!  | |

Subject: Why do guys take your number and never call? Message: I usually meet someone when I go out. They seem very interested. We exchange numbers or I take his number. Never hear from them!!! I get a little tired of reading negative sh!t about one gender or the other.
If you have his number, call it.
Q: Why is it when I go out with a woman and kiss her, she seems to like it then, is interested, kisses me back even more passionately, then when I call her to go out again and leave a message she never calls back? A: she's a dipsh!t. What else could you think about someone flaky like that?
PEOPLE are flaky. All men aren't flaky just because your last date was flaky. Some WOMEN are even flaky, imagine that?  | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/5/2005 11:38:48 AM | Hey girls. Guess what happened. my girlfriend and I went to our usual place last night. The four last no calls were there. I ran into a really nice guy that I met 2 years ago (when I was seeing someone). We started talking and ALL 4 desended on us each trying to out do the others. Nice for me. I enjoyed it for a while. But they had their chance. I stayed with the nice guy that actually called back when he got home after going to breakfast.
Hey you guys on the motor cycle. Are you a group effort? It very clearly shows who you are. Your picture looks like you are all con-joined at the gas tank. Too much alcohole in the tank I guess. Affects your eyes I hear. By the way, I ride a '90 Heritage Soft tail Classic.
Thanks to all you guys (and gals) that offered real insite. These forums are a really big help to understanding what the heck is going on out there. It just shows that its a numbers game and you have to keep looking and keep your head and heart together.
Hey I would never have thought to give out the # to wal mart. DUH!! | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 2:16:07 AM | Most guys hate the phone....
The phone is only a tool to make arrangements with. I'm pretty good about getting calls returned, but my work schedule will cause it to be a day or 2 sometimes... Enough people have commetned on the "why can't you call him" angle. I agree with this view, but its just the symptom of a larger practice.
I'll ask for numbers often to stay in practice! Men often face silly rejections over the phone number thing... and women have all the aces in that poker game! So frequently i'll ask for a number to remind myself that its no big deal to do so. I don't state specifically I'll call; I just get the number with no expectations.
Giving the number to Wal Mart simply strengthens my case that men need to be able to approach women with confidence in asking for the number, and make no big deal out of near certain rejection... | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 5:31:25 AM | Wow, that's kinda sh!tty. I routinely do NOT give out my number to a man unless he has some special quality that makes me want to know him better. I will not just give out the Wal-Mart number!! That's sh!tty too! Shame on the women who pull that crap!!! If the guy isn't what I am looking for, I politely tell him so. Why screw with people?? Usually, asking for a number is an indication that a phone call could be on it's way. You don't state you will call but then again, you don't state you won't. In essence, isn't that a game? I wonder how many disapponted women are out there, because of your practice. Not meaning any disrespect of course!!! Inquiring minds just want to know! If this is the general male as listed above, I won't ever give my number out! You just proved why I shouldn't bother LOL! Just a thought, are you ever afraid you could miss out on knowing someone special while you are practicing to get phone numbers that you have no intention of calling???? | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 7:29:17 AM | Maybe he didn't call because he lost your number. As i did this weekend one a lady i meet in a bar and had a blast talking to and getting to know. But as with my life it was one mess up after another at frist she was going to write her number on my hand but her pen would work so i pulled out my cell phone and put her number in it but forgot to press enter.So when i went to call her later no number  | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 8:23:51 AM | So do all of you guys ask for a woman's number to "stay in practice"?????? Just curious............is this a common guy thing to do like the one post said he does? I truly mean no disrespect, just wanna know. I understand losing a #, I've done it too. Not wanting to seem to eager isn't a bad thing either. Sh!t happens! It's understandable. | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 8:32:39 AM | Most the time I'm too shy to ask for numbers so if I do I realy must like you.Even when I worked as a bouncer most the other guys would leave with numbers but not me.  | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 8:49:31 AM | | That's totally understandable, it's your right to do so at any time. But to accept a phone number with no plan to ever call it just seems rude. As I said before, numbers get lost and sh!t happens. I have just hit that point in life that I say what I mean and mean what I say, I just wish other folks did too. It makes life easier. | |
|
| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 8:52:57 AM | | It would make things easier for sure. But better to not get a phone call from someone like that, then to get involved with them and have them lie about things other than phone calls. | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 9:00:38 AM | | Very true yardape, that's why I don't really give out my number!! I am incapable of that B.S. it's so high schoolish to me, cest la vie'! It's kinda annoying watching my friends give their hopes up for phone calls that never come. My friends are hotties too! Life's too short to worry about crap like this, thanks for the insight though!!!!! (*hugs) | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 9:55:38 AM | Women who will simply deny their phone number to a guy are rare... I have a lot of respect for that!
The denial normally ranges from a lame excuse about why they can't, a bogus number, or they give the real number with no intention of accepting or returning the call. It can be very frustrating when you realize that only 1 in 3 women most guys ask will actually give a real and working number then want you to call them (signifigantly lower if you are meeting them in bars BTW).
Having said all that, this practice of mine would be totally unnesseccary if it weren't for all the women out there who don't want to "hurt my feelings" my simply telling me they'd rather not give me their numbers.
As for your hot friends, what they never learned how to dial a phone? If your going to make a case that there isn't a right way to get a number or that its rude to ask for a number you aren't certain you'll call, you should also at least CONSIDER that the phone actually dials out too. I'll bet your friends have given out a number or 2 to men they realy didn't want to talk to and never returned their calls.
Ask them and repost. | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 10:19:00 AM | Just talked to a friend of mine, she feels the same way I do. Why screw around? She's gotten her share of bogus numbers from men too. I have watched her politely tell men she's not interested. She's always approached for her number too, usually at some pretty odd places. She will say no also. She had a dude try to get her number while we were sitting in Church!! LOL! The phone does work both ways, I do agree, however it is kinda hard to call if both folks didn't exchange numbers and the number exchange was one way. I really don't care about your practice since it is rare that I give my number out, I just wanted to inquire for my girls' sake. I guess I could understand your practice since there are some real women out there, but there are some real women too! Hope your practice has been working, hopefully you'll simply find a woman who doesn't bullsh!t through your practice, good luck! | |

| Why do guys take your number and never call? Posted: 12/6/2005 10:59:01 AM | I hear ya girl, I just found it kinda funny that someone posted that they practice asking for a woman's number. I don't ask for numbers hardly ever. I give mine out even less, last time was nearly 2 months ago. He was a good guy, but it just wasn't there when we talked. That was the first time I gave out my number in almost a year! I don't want some weirdo calling my house at all hours, so I am choosy about who gets my number. I pay to keep my phone number nonlisted for a reason. I just like my privacy. Although I am a single mom, my son doesn't need to answer the phone for men wanting to talk to his mom. I keep my dating life separate from being a parent. If there is no way in hell I am going to call the guy, I won't take the number, or give mine, that's just me I guess! | |
