For the record i haven't done this, but I'm willing to try if i happen to meet someone and i really like him. As a girl i think most of us would react to it negatively. I personally want a guy that would ask for my number from a friend of mine not directly at me because it seems that he had put an extra effort. The scene is too direct for me and i haven't encountered that situation so far. Usually guys would start to have small chats first before they ask for a number.

hello killerbullet :) to answer your questions,1. If a guy comes up to me asking for my number, i would have to think twice about it. If he seems to be my type then I would probably let him have my number though most of the time I want them to find ways of getting my number without asking me (I'm not playing hard to get but I often judge a person's interest through hard work and persistence), if not, I probably have to be downright honest with him, without blowing him off. 2. Now if a girl asks a guy for his number then i have to say that girl is brave! :) not to mention really bold, i really have nothing against girls like that but some boys have different ways of perceiving this kind of act :)

Lets consider I am the boy and girls come up to me with my friends standing with me. She says she like me and asks for my number, either that would be a trick being played or when its kind of serious then I would ask her to come aside and talk exactly what she means. A talk between the 2 of us could settle in whatever way it is. If I am already in an relationship, I would say that to her else would tell her I don't even know you so lets try and find about each other with timely meeting, huh.
This would help, I think now when I'm the girl whose' s been asked this by a boy, then a girl mostly can't readily deal that effectively but say a Big No first, and if she's in another relations then too the words would be a Big No for sure.
There are chances to talk about this more if the girl was approached by the boy when she would be alone.
Anyway going for readily actions these days and not being a friend can harm anyone. First know each other well and then proposing is matched to all's character and personality I would say.

As in for me, I've never asked a guy for his number-suppost I'm old fashion way.
As in for guys asking me yes and honestly, I don't truelly fall for it. Many are jerks, immature and are just looking who fall for it. Now, some end up being the opposite. Now a days, one has to be careful whom you give that personal information to for you could avoid many problems. But not all are bad, at least, that's how I met my hubby lol that's why I said "Some end up being the opposite".

im a girl and ive experienced this a lot. it really depends on what type of guy approaches me. first of all, i look at the physical appearance. if he's good looking then he has a very high chance of getting my number. second, it depends on how he asked me. if there's some connection between the two of us then i'd give my number.

There are some guys out there that do just this and are very good at getting girls to give them the number. Of course they do not just walk up and ask for a phone number out of the blue. They walk up and start a conversation and through that conversation let the girl know they are a good, well intending, guy that can be fun to be with but by the end of the conversation they will more than likely have the number.
Now this generally works on girls that do not have a boy friend but it also works on some that do. I am not the kind of person that is good at that. And I have no respect for guys that are not well intended. But I do admire their ability to pick up girls.
It takes only two things. A great sense of humor and a great sense of self.
It can be done and is done all the time and it really comes down to a matter of numbers. The more girls you ask the more numbers you stand a chance of getting.

i think someone in your friends group may feel slighted. they may like the person who asked the girl or guy for their phone number. unfortunately,that is how it goes. a guy or girl will like a person and ask them for their phone number. you cannot do anything about this situation. if he or she asks for their number --so be it. the other people in the group will find someone else. i think sometimes when this happens you may feel left out. do not feel this way. there will be someone who will ask you for your phone number. this person just isn't the right one. the best to all of you.

Back in college, I've been in several of these situations. I've asked the phone numbers of girls and I've also been asked my phone number. I guess it's not that unusual when you're at school. But I would be hesitant to ask now especially in a working environment. Being so upfront and telling someone you like her and then asking for her number may be seen as being rude, fresh and unprofessional. There are proper and gentlemanly ways to ask for a girl's number :)

It would have to depend on how much i was liking the guy back to give away my phne number. If a girl approached a guy and he was my guy i would definitely have something to say about her getting his phone number. I have never done this myself but that doesn't mean i wouldn't be willing to give it a try.

Well if I am the guy and the girl doesn't give me his number well of course I will feel dumb lol. She might thinking that I was a stranger and why would she give me her phone number. But hey if she gave it to me, I will think that 1)She likes me or 2) I have hypnotized her. hehe.

Firstly, doing something like this lot depends on how upfront you are. To me,doing something like this is bit crazy because getting a positively reply is quite rare provided there was some hidden liking both had for each other.
It will be quite embarrassing for a girl to give you a number in this particular situation. I would suggest to have some patience and try to find a place where the person is comfortable when you express such desire and don't get depress if reply is not positive remember you have done your part by expressing it.
