What would you suggest we women do when a man asked for a phone number we don't want to give?
Lie, & give a fake number? Some might, some don't think that fast. Some give the number & then don't answer the phone. You kind of put a woman on the spot when you asked for her number. Don't asked, if she wants to see you again she'll say Call me, here's my number.

Think this discussion will get deleted? Red Face




Gee, I forgot, we got to do better than this, shame on me! Cool
Forgive me if I've missed some vital info on these posts. First, does she have caller ID. If she doesn't, she may have been out and not know you called. I would try to run into her in some fashion (not with my car) and see what happens.

Did you mention a son after the first few calls? She might not be into kids, even grown ones.

As for 9 years, yes it's too much in my book. Maybe her parents have passed away and she doesn't want to even contemplate another trip to the funeral home. Did you really think she was older, or was it just wishful thinking.

Today, women who don't smoke live 12 years longer, on average, than men who do. Something to think about.

Caller ID and voicemail: yes

My son was with me the day I saw her and I introduced him BEFORE I later asked for her number.

She smokes.

Number of times married is not something I would bring up early on unless asked and she didn't.

Her parents are still living but I did wonder how old her dad was.

I thought she was around 38 but definetly wasn't foolish enough to tell her that.

So,You like the older chicks huh? why? Just stay away from the ones that has that funny smell about them. You know that smell of being old. Cool Don't date the ones that smell like Ben-gay. They're stiff and too easy to break and can't handle certain positions.

Actually, that was a response referring to older than the 35 that she is. I'm 44.

The old smell is just from their clothes so once you get them off.........

Stiff? Just call me the chiropractor, they, I mean their joints, just need a good cracking and their walkers make for some interesting positions alright.

Or a desperate loser.

And 35 and 44 is not that much difference. If she's 35 and still worried about that kind of age difference she's too superficial. Let it go.


I'm with Vick on every single word of the above.

My advice to you would have been to call back once or twice, then call and leave a message telling her you'd tried to call a couple of times previously (as though she wouuldn't already know) along with a polite request that she call you back. It sounds as though you've done that. No call back? Then forget about her and don't waste your time trying to figure out why she didn't call: there are more possibilities than there are stars in the sky. Wink

So ladies, answer this one for me. Would you rather have someone ask for your number or offer their own? Would this be easier for you or would you be uncomfortable being the first to call?


This is just one e's opinion Smiler, but I'd much rather a man offer me his number.

When men have asked me for my own, and I wasn't interested in sharing it for whatever reason, I've always been upfront about it. Still, though, it put me in the awkward position of having to say that yes, while I was flattered to be asked, I didn't feel comfortable giving it to them. Having to say that is even more difficult because it's so presumptious: it precludes the possibility that the guy might just want to be friends based on common interests or whatever. You get the idea.

But if a man gave me his number, you can rest assured one of two things would happen: either he would hear from me within a week, or he would never hear from me. And I think most men can figure that out pretty quickly and avoid the ordeals you've found yourself in. Secondly, if I were interested in a man, I'd have no qualms whatsoever about calling him after he'd given me his phone number.

I think that you've found yourself a new plan. Wink

Well, it wasn't 6 calls, more like 3.(unless you count the heavy breathing) And, all I can say is if she was interested she should have called because any woman that grabs my attention gets my full attention. I'm a one woman man but I do wish I could find that one woman.

Its not like I don't have a chance to be with someone its just that I believe in a mutual attraction.

I guess the biggest reason I started this topic was because you do hear about the occassional couple that started out with one having no interest but the other being so persistent that the other gave in and they turned out to be the perfect couple. I don't know but maybe that hasn't happened since the media called our attention to stalking.
