Just Wondering Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Hello all.. Quick question. When a guy tells a girl he "lost her phone number" is that a clear cut dis. This guy and I exchanged phone numbers not too long ago. Since then he hasn't called but emails me. Well I haven't called him either since I thought it'd be best if he initiated the first call. Anyways, I just received an email from saying how my friends and his friends should all go out soon. But then he went on to saying how he had lost my phone number BUT HE DID NOT even ask for it again. I understand things happen and we lose stuff but if he really wanted it he'd ask for it again wouldn't he? I'm thinking he doesn't like me and basically is telling me he won't be making any efforts. I never lost his number! I think I know the answer here but I thought maybe i could get a different perspective on this. Link to post Share on other sites
Ann Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 I think you are absolutely right. Link to post Share on other sites
HokeyReligions Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 You may be right, but then again -- maybe the guy is really shy and afraid to ask for it again. He suggested you go out with friends and not on a date. If you want to go out with a group of friends (& him) email him back and say it sounds great - here's my phone number, give me a call after you talk with your friends and we'll set it up. If he doesn't call then you know you are right. Link to post Share on other sites
clia Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 If you want to go out with a group of friends (& him) email him back and say it sounds great - here's my phone number, give me a call after you talk with your friends and we'll set it up. If he doesn't call then you know you are right. I disagree with this. If he wants your phone number, all he has to do is ask for it. Why should you go out of your way to make it easier for him? I think doing this makes you sound desperate and that you like him, which shifts the power over to his court. Why do that? In fact, if you do this and then he doesn't call, you will probably feel even worse. Why go there? I think you are right in thinking that he dissed you. He very well could have lost your phone number, but it seems like if he was really dying to call you, he would've asked you for it again. Link to post Share on other sites
Just Wondering Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 I agree 100%. At first I thought it was sweet that he was sending me an email to wish me a Happy New Year but then that whole phone number thing just destroyed everything. I look at it this way, I made the effort to make sure that I didn't lose his phone number so he should have showed me the same respect. No way in hell I'm emailing him my number or calling him (no offence to Hokey Religions, I still appreciate your response). Besides, I don't really believe him. I bet he still has my number but has decided that he doesn't want to call and thinks that this is his ticket out. Well guess what, it worked. He can play his game by himself. Thank goodness I've learnt something from my mistakes in the past and I'm recognizing loser behaviour before it gets too far. Too bad I thought he was a "nice guy". I just don't understand why he continues to mention going out with our friends? Weird. Link to post Share on other sites
Tolkien Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I was just thinking, how did he get your phone number in the first place, he asked for it right? So if he wants it, he will ask again.... Link to post Share on other sites
MetalMatty Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Yeah and not only that but surley if you gave him your number, he would have stored it in his mobiles phonebook (Presuming he has a mobile) How the hell do you loose a number from that? Link to post Share on other sites
