kelel01 1 #1 July 5, 2006 I call approximately "x" times out of 10. Just to clarify, I'm asking in whatever time period in which you have collected 10 girls' numbers, how many of them have you called? For some of you, that might be a weekend's worth of data . . . for others, 10 years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #3 July 5, 2006 Pretty much all the time. Then again, when I get girls' numbers, it's usually not for dates. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Lindercles 0 #4 July 5, 2006 Depends. If we're talking about getting a girl's phone number then yeah, I'd probably call. If we're talking about getting a girl's number the way we get skydiving numbers, then probably not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #5 July 5, 2006 Yes, I meant her phone number. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #6 July 5, 2006 ??? Is this a convoluted way of asking how long it took to collect 10 girl's numbers and if we actually called the number after we got it? Took 10 years..I called ALL of them. ...$67,824 in phone bills to 900 numbers...oh well, I'll never learn. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

kelel01 1 #8 July 5, 2006 That's the information I'm looking for. What's the difference? And why do it? I'm SO good at blowing people off and not getting numbers, so why is it so hard for guys? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #10 July 5, 2006 If she gives you a 555 number, you know she has been in the movies, so yeah...it's worth a call. If it's a 900 number, you DON'T want to call...trust me. .

The ones that were shoved in my pocket or left for me under the drink on the napkin I didn't usually call - except for one - who left her number, on a napkin, and a note that said, "If you want your tip, call me."

Peej 0 #12 July 5, 2006 I dunno, it's wierd, i've done the been really drunk thing, chatting someone up and then waking up the next day and going "WHAT was i thinking". It's a bastard thing to do i know. I've also sometimes been really keen and got their number meaning to call and have. There've lso been times when i've given them my number and asked them to call me if they feel like it, i heard somewhere that it takes the pressure off them handing their number out. Even as i type that i see it's a CRAP idea though and could be seen as really vain Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #13 July 5, 2006 You know, kel, I'd post this one: "If you got a girl's number, it was her real number x times out of 10." I usually wished they'd just tell me they weren't interested. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm SO good at blowing people off and not getting numbers, so why is it so hard for guys? I have my tandem students fill out the space for their jump in my logbook. Sometimes female students write down their number. I've yet to call any of them. The bar conversations that somehow turn to skydiving often involve an exchange of numbers (male or female). I give them my number and figure if they actually want to go skydiving and it wasn't just alcohol-induced bravado, they can call me. I ain't gonna call them. Excluding skydiving, if a woman gives me her number because I asked for it, I'll call. If she just volunteers it in an "I'm interested" sort of way, she's got maybe a 30% chance of getting a call, depending on her qualifications and my current dating status.

kelel01 1 #17 July 5, 2006 I guess we've all done those things. But I would NEVER have the nerve to call a guy, so the last idea isn't the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #18 July 5, 2006 Well, Jerry, lemme tell you one thing. I have NEVER given out a fake number. Although I used to get scared when people called, so I wouldn't answer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it also helps not to hand over a business card with a wink and say "call me sometime, baby" Kel makes a good point below above toom girls might not have the nerve to call a guy.

NWFlyer 2 #21 July 5, 2006 That reminds me of one night of barhopping in graduate school. I woke up with a guy's number in my pocket and no idea why I had it. I asked my girlfriend who was with me and she remembered the guy (he was a friend of hers) and encouraged me to call him.
