When A Guy Gives You His Number...

Hi everyone!
Happy Holidays!
I've been thinking about this lately. Maybe you guys can help me out.
Lately, I've been meeting guys who give me his numbers. They'd say, "Please give me a call. I'd love to see you again", but they don't ask me my numbers.
I'm just thinking, each guy's different, each person's different, act differently, they take things differently. But is there anything particular in a guy's mind when he gives a girl his number instead of asking her for hers?? Do you guys think that behavior comes from the idea of having less interest in a girl (Being less aggrasive or something)? Of course, I've had guys asking me for my numbers as well. It's just that I've gotten to do some thinking about guys who give me their numbers and guys who ask me my numbers.
Do you have any thoughts or opinions on this? I'd be very appreciated to hear from you guys. Thanks!

Hello...I just read something on this exact topic. Basicly it said that if a guy gives you his number and says "Call me sometime" it means he's not all that interested and also gives him the upperhand to say no if you end up calling him for a date. This makes sense to me as naturally we feel more in control if we have an upperhand and less likely to get are pride hurt or our feelings. I don't know if this is exactly correct but it makes sense to me. If a guy is really interested then he would be asking for your number.....but then you have to worry about him calling.....Hope this helps

Pianoguy is pretty much convinced that exchanging phone numbers is a 2-way street between a man and a woman, but here's a question for a few ivillagers. What if you have a private or unlisted phone number? Is this something you want to exchange with a person you hardly know who may or may not be interested in you?
Sometimes...a man might offer his phone number just to see if a woman is interested in having a 2nd (or 3rd) conversation. . It's amazing how easy it is for many of us to talk to women "as friends" when there are no further expectations on either side.

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to thank you all for all the advice:-)
I'm just not used to men giving me their numbers, not asking for mine. I'm not sure what they really expect from me after giving me their numbers. You guys have given me some things to think about. After thinking sometime, I can't help but keep thinking that those guys aren't that interested in me, though. One time, this guy that I dated about 6 months, asked me for my number, and after getting it, he still made sure he had it right and everything in order for him to reach me. I right away knew that he was really interested in me and wanted to see me in the future. So that's something that I have been used to, you know.
Thanks again for all your advice.
