Is it ok for a girl to give a guy her number?


Question Posted Friday December 20 2013, 12:03 am

Is it okay for a girl to give a guy her number without him asking? If it depends, what does it depend on? Is it creepy to just come out of the blue with it, or is there a specific way to do it?

As a guy and based on my own personal life experiences, I would say that many guys would be thrilled if a girl would come up to them and give them her number.

All in all I see nothing wrong with this. In most places and cultures in the world men and women are generally considered equals. That being the case, you have every right to do this just as much as any male does.

As far as there being some sort of specific way to do it, no there isn't one. Some so-called relationship and dating experts might try to tell you that there is but there really is not.

That being said, some people might think it's a little strange if you don't at least make some kind of effort to communicate a little beforehand. For example making some flirty eye contact with them or attempting to strike up a conversation.

Go for it, you can do this.

It's totally fine for a girl to give a guy her number. Times have changed and you'll actually find it common that it happens a lot.
Although, I'd go with your best judgment on how to give it to him and when it's the right time to give it to him.
I wouldn't say it's creepy to just come out of the blue and give it to him. I mean it's a blunt way to tell someone you're interested. If that's your personality, then go for it.

I'd probably talk to him for a little while, become closer to him and then exchange numbers by saying something like, "We should catch up, here's my number" Or "What's your number?". Just go with whatever feels natural.

Yes its okay for a girl to give a guy her number without him asking. However I would give a number to a guy would was already showing an interest in me that I also liked in return. He may just be too shy to ask for it himself.
If there is a guy you are crushing on, best to know if he likes you in return before offering to give him your number, cus thats pretty awkward if he's not interested.
So it would seem the thing to determine first is if there is any interest. A guy seeking you out for conversation, finding reasons to come stand close to you or sit by you, are signs that he is probably interested.
Find a way to start up a conversation with him and somewhere during the convo, offer him your phone number, weaving it into the normal conversation. Start off with asking if he's seen a particular movie thats out. Ask what kind of movies he likes and offer info on you too like your favorite type of movies or you could start with talking about music or something that is happening at your school. Once he's shared what his favorite music, movies are. Ask him if he has pets. If you do, you might offer to send him a pic of your pet and one of you too if he'd like. You could text it to him later. Write down your number and hand it to him along with a piece of paper and pen for him to write down his for you. That way both of you have each others number. If one conversation doesn't offer an opportunity to weave in an excuse to ask for his number and give him yours, then wait for a future one. It could be as easy as "Hey I am going rollerskating/iceskating this Saturday and my parents said I could ask some friends too come along. Would you like to go? Here's my number so you can call me and let me know if your parents say yes or wanna talk to my parents. Just starting imagining scenerios in your mind and you'll soon have the perfect way to give him your number
