Random guy on bus gave me his number

hey
i was on a bus late last nite whilst coming home from studying in the lib, looking a total state cos i hadn't washed my hair in aaages etc etc.

anyway, saw this really fit guy on the bus and noticed he was looking at me.
couple stops later he gets out a piece of paper and pen and writes something. i'm talking to my friend and people get off the bus so we move to a space closer to the guy and i put my folder next to him, leaning on something.

he puts the paper underneath the folder. and when he gets off the bus i looks at it and find it's his number.

so....should i call/text him? i mean what kinda people give random girls their number?? he didnt even say anything to me! i'm just trying to suss out if he's a freak before possibly getting into contact...or is that just weird?

Lots of people give out their number. I once had a friend who wrote her name and number on a napkin in pizza hut. She left it on the table after we left for the guy who served us. She never did get a phone call though. Plenty of people do it, don't worry.

He might not have said anything to you because he was shy? Maybe he was to scared at that point to speak to you in person therefore he gave you his number, he might feel more comfortable speaking to you over the phone.

It's really up to you if you phone him or not. I would be a little weary of him to be honest, just because he would be someone I wasn't familiar with but who knows what he will be like? He might be a really nice guy.

If you do phone him, you don't need to give him any details. You don't even have to give him your phone number, it's possible to just speak to him and see what he is like...

hmmmm. one part of me says 'OMG don't phone him what a freak' the other says, give him a call on a private number to see what his intentions are, or if he's just shy.

he might even just have been polite and not spoke to you because you were talking to your freinds. if you do phone him though, with-hold your number.

yeah...i dunno...he didn't give me his name or anything on the piece of paper either which seems a bit weird.
also, i mean just going on appearances he didn't seem like a shy guy...he looked kinda like a preppy rugby/footbal guy...but he was by himself...also, he looked a couple years older than me...
argh...what happens if it's like a joke or he's got some other nasty intentions...??

You can't judge a book by it's cover. Don't judge him on his appearance, you can't how shy or confident someone is on their looks. He might be your stereotypical rugby/footballer but he might not be, you never know.

You will never know his intentions unless you phone him. If you phone him and it turns out to be a joke, what do you lose? Absolutely nothing. You're in the same position as you were before you phoned. If you are having doubts, don't phone him. Only phone him if you are 100% you want to speak to him, and risk it being a joke. Just becareful, don't give him details and don't give him your number just yet.

If you decide you're not gonna call him because he's freaky..

Next time a guy you dont like flirts with you and asks for your number, give him the number of the guy on the bus! Thats sure gonna be an awkward phone conversation! :p:

lol...if he doesn't have the sand to engage you and ask for your number/get you to take his, I don't think you should give him the time of the day. You could text him, "nice try pal...but better luck next time"

I completely disagree. It's mysterious... and interesting... and exciting... I would. xx

Text him and see what happens! I think it's quite a cute gesture and why not give it a go. Honestly, you've got nothing to lose, and maybe something to gain. A gorgeous guy gave me his number on a train once and we texted for a while... til I found out he actually had a girlfriend :rolleyes:

But hopefully yours will turn out better! You can get to know him by phone/text and see if you click without having to worry about his 'intentions' - and if you do then decide to meet up with him, make sure you go somewhere public, tell friends where you're going and take all the usual precautions. Good luck!

A bus driver gave me his number last week as I got off the bus... and his email address! Lol!

He was cute but not really my type, if he was though I might have texted him - why not?! If you liked him, go for it :biggrin:

i don't even know this guy's name! but he was pretty fit...that's why i'm having trouble believing its real, i never thoght a guy like him would go for me, esp not even talking to me...

What do you have to lose if you withhold your number?

Whoah... slow down and cross each bridge as you come to it. It's a big leap from texting someone and introducing yourself to actually dating them... and if you end up dating him, I'm sure you will discover what he does with his days and who his mates are. You can't expect to know anything about this bloke until you've spoken to him! Trust is something that comes with time in a committed relationship, so again, cross that bridge when you come to it. You don't need to trust him to text him :rolleyes:

And don't be so hard on yourself... he obviously thought you were attractive enough to give you his number, so I'm sure he would be delighted for you to text. He's probably thinking you didn't think he was fit enough to respond :rolleyes:
