Why ask for a number if you're not going to ring?

Why do guys do that? Why do they ask for someone's number & then not ring?? :banghead:
Swapped numbers with some cute guy on a bus a few days ago & he still hasn't rung/txted. Ok, I have his number so could ring him myself, but too scared. Anyway, he was the one who'd asked for my number, surely he could be the one to ring it.
Hope this all makes sense

Lord knows - just ring him yourself and find out what's going on.
I do that oh so often just can't remember or be bothered then anymore. That's why I always EXCHANGE number, so she has the chance to ring me up too...
You're both probably sat thinking the same thing about eachother :rolleyes:
Just give him a call... what's to lose?
Speaking to my friend online at the mo & she's saying I should call/txt him too. I'd probably be saying the same thing if it was someone else
But if I did call/txt him, I wouldn't have a clue what to say. I'm underage over here (stupid drinking ages) so can't ask him out for a drink (wouldn't have a clue what to say anyway). Might try & get a friend to throw a party, & then invite him to that. Less scary that way. But he's a bit older so might find a uni dorm party a bit immature/stupid. I dunno
What about asking him out for a coffee? Just something nice and informal and you can get to know each other.
Phone up, say hi, ask if he remembers you, if he says yes then it is a good start, if no, tell him when you met (not a good start), say that you were wondering if you could meet up for a coffee - it would be nice to get to know you properly as he seemed kinda cool on the bus.
Worst case scenario - he says no. You lose 10 minutes of your life on the phone.
Best case scenario - he remembers you and you get to meet him for a coffee.
Cos they think you're rotten when they wake up?
I've got a few girls' numbers here and I haven't texted/rang them, why? Cos I'm not interested, end of story.
Lol. I don't even know if I'm interested in him that way anyway. Would rather do the friends thing first & see if anything comes out of it.
You are interested, otherwise you wouldn't make a thread about it. One thing I have to say about guys is that they rarely make the first move, why don't you ring him?
to the OP...if you dont feel comfortable ringing, just send a quick text....like someone said, if he aint interested, so what? you'll probably never see him again and even if u do, you shouldnt feel daft as it was HIM who asked YOU
let us know what u do

Easy way to find out, is to send a txt.
OR JUST BLOODY RING!
I hate this reliance on text messaging... You'll be able to get more info and tell more from his voice than an emotion-free SMS.
The number of times I have left a club with a (few) number(s) and not called the next day I have completely lost track of... I have no idea why, just laziess, for part of it. Sometimes you just don't fancy calling the next day...
