Nerve Dating Confessions

January 7, 5:53PM I got this guy's # at a party this past weekend and my friend's friend also did the same; I don't think she knew. anyways, point is we're not friends, she's just an acquaintance. should I just not bother contacting this guy? she claims that he said he wanted to take her out to dinner or whatever #needadvice #HELP CAN RELATE (1) CAN'T RELATE (1) FLAG FOR ABUSE

"she claims he said" They aren't married. Call him if you feel like calling him, if he wants to date both of you, he will

One way to look at it is that there is a chance that this has happened other times you may have gotten a guys number, you just didn't happen to know the other girls that also got his number. For a guy giving out a number, there is no gaurantee that the girl is going to call, so giving it out to multiple girls is not that uncommon. You just happened to find out about it this time. So really, I would go with our gut feel. If knowing puts you off a little, then let it go. If you really like him, give it a shot. Giving out a number does not define exclusivity. Good luck.

I guess, I kind of want to text him but knowing that he showed more interest in her is a bit discouraging. I just figured he was cool enough to approach me and introduce himself so I went for it, idk what to do. should I just text him?

For one, it sounds like your a little hung up on it. Two, it also depends on you. Your age, looks, do you get asked out often? Not to sound rude, but if you are a little more desperate, give it a try. What have you got to lose other than a few hours.

not often, but I've been told I'm "cute"/pretty. I'm not desperate, I'm just young.

I would say give it a try. What have you got to lose, and you gain a little experience. Just try to qualm your expectations just in case he is a player. I don't want to see you get hurt. Good luck.

No I don't. Even though I don't know you, I don't want to give you advice and the have the guy be a total douche and you get burned. I have been burned bad, then after I got burned this person decided to kIck me while I was down. It sucks and don't want that for anyone. And I have gotten some good advice from women on here, so I hope to be reciprocating. Good luck.

I understand what you mean. thank you for the advice, I'll text him and take a chance anyways, I have nothing to lose. worst comes to worst, we become friends, that's never a bad thing.
