She gave me her Number. Now, what do I do?

A girl I know since a couple of weeks gave me her number today, after I bumped into her in a department store.

Know that I have the number, when, how do I contact her?

Please detailed answers. SMS or call, wait how long, two weeks for not appearing eager? Morning/afternoon/night/

Well, important question: did she give you her number or was it you who asked her and then she gave you?

If it was her initiative, then why wait? She's probably just expecting you to show interest, so you should call as soon as possible! Not sure what time is it there right now, but maybe ring her tomorrow afternoon and ask her out for tomorrow night?

That's what I would do, though I was never so lucky that a girl would just give me her number, I always had to work hard and sometimes it wouldn't even come to that.

Anyway, I'm an older dude and that's how it worked when I was younger, not sure how people do these things these days... maybe you better wait for more advice.

Text her tomorrow show interest. She must like you to have given out her number.
Say maybe, Hi how are you today? About 2 pm would be good.
She will be waiting for you to contact her!

What do you do?
Pray that you will be luckier than me haha

Nah, seriuosly, i've never had a girlfriend, ut if i can give you an advice would be something like this:

1. sms her first once in a while, either you could use whatsapp or something. Try to relax and hava a playfull chat with her, but always listen to her, and if you "may ask to her" ask details if she either tells you a story or something: Everybody loves talking about themselves (I'm telling this in a good way tought ). Remember, be reasonable, playfull and A LITTLE bit flirtu (not obvious, but show a little of interest so she would guess some interst of your part), remember, a little interest is good, too much, not. Don't be afraid to tell some innocent jokes or something, but try to be yourself, relax.

2. Don't message her daily, remember that both of you have a life (or at least i guess haha, just kidding), and if you don't get one. What i mean? Even thought you wnat to know her, she can't be your world buddy, what would you do if she's not around? You would obviously miss her, but she can't be all your happiness because of the same reason i just gave to you. Remember, you ARE happy, and if you two become friends or even something else, you would be happIER.

3. She has friends, familly and a lot of people (or i supose that), so try to be sensitive on how you talk to her or how you say everything: It's not the same thing asking "What are you doing?" or "Where are you" than "How are you?" or "How was your day?"

4. Coming back to your simple quiestion, everyonce in a while is fine, you don't need to wait 2 weeks to contact her, because she might suspect some interest of your part, and if you don't contact her, she might doubt. Chat with her whenever you want as long as it isn't 24/7 and you aren't interrupting or something (Remember that you both have a life). Concerning the calls, i would suggest you to start calling her once you two gained a little bit more confidence/trust with each other.

Good luck , we're here for everyone.
If i misspell or something, sorry.

It's ok to wait other suggestions tough. As i said, never had a girlfriend before.

I'll tell you exactly what I would do and say, but there's a problem with that. If you do it, you'll be impersonating me - and it's not me she gave the number to - it's you. She might just want you to be yourself. Anyway...

I'd call her tomorrow, making my best guess when she isn't busy and say, "Hey, I have a question for you. When a really cute girl that you're desperate to get to know better gives you her phone number, how long should a guy wait before calling her - you know, so he doesn't sound over eager or something?"

It would be easier to call during the day, when you text its harder to tell what people are up to unless they tell you specifically. I would give her a call and see if she wants to go somewhere like a theatre. I would call around the time she gave you her number originally so at least you know she probably isnt busy. Doing it this way you know right away if they want to be friends or maybe something more down the road.

I asked for the number, and she gave it to me. She didn't seem disturbed or surprised. Just took her smartphone out of the pocket and called my number, so we both have each others' numbers.

In that case I would agree with the others start by texting once in a while and then go from there.

I would call.

If she is not interested, she will not answer.

If she is, then she will.

If you text, be prepared for a long dance...

If you're younger then texting is more acceptable. Honestly I'm one of the youngest gen x'ers and I don't take guys seriously when they only text. If a guy can't speak to me on the phone I honestly believe he's wasting my time and pay little attention. I learned this lesson the hard way, repeatedly. But texting is the norm for younger people so if you are younger then text her. Do NOT ask her to "hang out". Hanging out is for friends and if a guy asks just to hang out, his intentions are unclear as he's coming off as not wanting something serious. I say this as a female who has mainly guy friends. If she has a lot of guy friends too and you just want to "hang out" then she may interpret this as a friend gesture.

Sophiesmom, the quiestionis for you now...
What do you mean by "long dance"? Out of curiosity if may i ask

Texting is dancing. You text, must wait for other person to reply. May take a day or so depending on how busy they are/how attached they are to their phone. A conversation on the phone that takes 5 minutes may spread out to 5 days via text. MOST of what we say isn't in the words themselves but in how we say it so texting is vulnerable to much misinterpretation.

Just my $0.02. Maybe SM means something different.

I'd call her. If she gave you her number, she's probably been waiting for you to call and wondering why you haven't.

Call today. Not late. Leave a message if she doesn't pick up.

Nope. You are on the mark ChipperMonkey.

The typed word also has no inflection. Auditory cues are important.
