What She Says: No, why don't you give me your phone number.
chicktionary.gif What She Says:
No, why don't you give me your phone number.

Wrong Answers:
No, why don't you give me your phone number.
OK, my number is 555-BIG-DICK
What She Means:
The bad news is this is likely a rejection. The good news is you still have a chance. Most of the time, if you ask for a girl’s number and she turns the question around, it means she's gonna probably chuck your number as soon as walk away. But, not always. Girls sometimes have very legitimate reasons for wanting to take the lead with the phone calls. Your best move is to just do as she says. Don’t push for her number and absolutely don’t ask: “Well, if I give you my number are you going to call me?” Have some dignity man. Drop your digits and move along. If she calls, sweet. If not, better off without the bitch.

"But, not always."

Yes, always.

As far as I'm concerned, "a simple no would have sufficed" is the correct response. Then just walk away.

I agree with the bitch part, though.

It also can mean, "I have a boyfriend and I don't want him answering the phone when you call."

What it really means: I'll call you after sucking my boss off.

It doesn't always mean she's not going to call, it might just mean she doesn't want to give her phone number out to perfect strangers and would rather take the first step. I would rather get his number than give him mine and wonder if he's going to call, and also wonder if he's a psycho-stalker-date-rapist. You never know, but at least if you get his name and number, a simple google can give a small fraction of security before making that call.
besides, people need to learn to not take a simple rejection so seriously. If, for example, she just didn't want to give out her number and he assumes that means she isn't going to call, and then starts insulting her, well, looks like she made the right choice and avoided a loser. The best thing to do is smile and give her the number and say something to the extent of "I hope we can grab a coffee sometime", and then walk away. It sounds perfectly respectable, already makes the opening for her to suggest coffee, and plus shows he's not the type to flip if he doesn't get his way.

Respond with, "Ok, great" and give her your number, but then continue the conversation for a while, and keep it going well, make her laugh and get a little more comfortable. Then, when the conversation is coming to an end, say "Ok, I'll give you a call soon. Oh ya, I didn't get your number, you have mine. Are you sure I can't have your number?" This way you get to legitimately ask again without coming across as pushy. If she doesn't give her #, but calls you, pick up the line and tell her you're glad she called, you've been thinking about her.

The "bitch" comment is simply juvenile. Obviously coming from someone who is constantly rejected by women. Awww. Diddums!
