I got a girl's phone number today :)
So I'm walking out of a café, and one of the girls who work there comes running after me, and with a smile says "hey, this is from my friend", and hands me a note.
I say "er, thanks" and walk to my car, unfolding the note as I walk. It simply said Call me!! Emilie = ######## Now, I have a girlfriend and would never consider calling her, but she was very nice looking and pretty hot, and it just gave me one of those boosts of confidence, and it was almost as if "I Feel Good" started playing... Well, it made my day anyway. Anyway, just sharing. |

I would let your girlfriend know though.... If she's not the jealous type she should be fine with it. And she'll most likely feel proud. "Hey, girls find my man attractive, and he's all mine!"

I agree with the general consens (especially Averett's last remark):
Call the girl up, explain the situation to her (you have a girlfriend), and I'd also tell it to your girlfriend (so that if nothing else it doesn't later turn into a "why didn't you tell me about that girl?" argument). But yea, I've had situations where girls have given me compliments, one in particular that was amusing when my girlfriend was nearby, and she's gotten laughs out of them.

Yup. Call her.
When you talk to her, tell her you almost didn't call her, because you have a girlfriend, but you decided since she was so cool you'd at least give her a ring just to chat. Can't hurt, and you can never have too many friends- especially attractive female ones. |

I'll add to the call her with my own thoughts...you should call her because generally women do not act so forward and we as men should do everything possible to encourage this.
Something similar to this happened to me whilst working freight delivery years ago, but a co-worker told me someone there liked me (it didn't turn out to be her). I explained I had a gf and I was very flattered, which I was. I'd like to see every woman ask a man out just once at least. Guys like to feel wanted too, and they know all too well the risk you are taking so they should be cool about if they can't accept.

What's with the 7's?
I threw away her number, so I can't call her. But I come to that place 2 times a week, business related. It might still be in the trashcan at work, though. I didn't want to call her, because: 1. I have a girlfriend 2. Then she would have my number, and might call me up at weird times... try explaining that to the girlfriend... "Erm, that was just this girl, who thinks I'm hot" Anyway, the next time I come there I'll smile and say thanks. If I can remember who of the girls it was... I visit 50 cafés a week, business related, and all of the pretty girls kinda blend together But I agree with you that this kind of thing should be praised. I wish more girls would have that kind of confidence and courage. |

Well, I should hope she wouldn't call back and become a creepy stalker type...
Yup, if you happen to see her again say hi. Girl has courage, thats for sure. I dont think I could do that at this point.

I met my current gf like that.. except i was the one working when before leaving she asked for my number =D
It is great on the confidence and to me showed a lot of stability from her. note to ladies- dont be shy, there is no problem with the 'unconventional' method (woman asking man) |

I disagree with those who say to call her.
One side of me says , "Wow, that would be a decent thing to do and she would be much better off if you called her, and it would encourage her to continue being forward in the future" The other side says, " Wow. You have a chance to be completely and blatently disrepectful and wholly reject this woman. You have a chance maybe .5% of males have. And 95% of females have this same chance ( coldly rejecting a man ) and do it on a regular basis. Lets score one for men!" As bitter as I'd like to be, I say encourage women to be more forward, even if she did go through a friend. Talk to her at the store. |

Totally agree with cybermike, I would tell my g/f (wife) and ask her what she thought would be the best thing to do.... I think I know what the answer would be but these things have a really bad habit of coming back at you later and biting you real bad

My girlfriend had a voicemail the other day from some guy in one of her classes that asked her out. She told me about it as soon as she checked it (granted I was there) but we just sort of laughed about it and I told her to make sure she at least called the guy or talked to him. I used to be shy too and if I worked up the courage to ask a girl out I'd be pretty pissed if I didn't hear anything, rather a "no" than being unomfortable around that girl from that point on.

Personally, I'd probably just talk to Emilie the next time I was in there...explain to her that I had a girlfriend, and that I was flattered that she'd given me her number, but that I just wouldn't have felt right in keeping it as it would have smacked of being unfaithful to the S.O.
Now, that's all well and good, but I'd have to get a girlfriend first! Good for you, though. |

No, I didn't call her, because I threw out her number!
I was in the café a couple more times though, and she was there the last time. I just smiled at her and said merry christmas, and she smiled back and said the same. She didn't seem upset or anything, anyway, I couldn't talk to her because she was serving people, but I think she knows that I don't think she's the devil or anything. She /is/ pretty good looking, and I think she knows that. |
