There is, however, a fine line between confidence and arrogance. If someone were to walk up to me and do nothing but shove their number into my hand and then prance away, I probably wouldn't call them regardless of whether or not I were in a relationship. All I know about this person is...well, nothing, except for the fact that they seem to think this one action is so impressive that I would be left swooning in his wake.sir.rutthed said:Actually, if he plays it right he'll just stick out in her memory more. Think about it: every guy asks for a girl's number, but how many are confident enough to give her theirs and just walk off? It says a lot about your confidence, and she won't instantly forget him like every other slob that hits on her every day.DoomyMcDoom said:Actually, that might come off as wussy, ask her for her number, most women will give you their number if there's ANY chance that they'd wanna go out with you in the first place, AND it leaves you with options, and not just the knowledge that she'll probably never call you...sir.rutthed said:Don't even ask if she's single. Tell him to just introduce himself, say she looks nice, then give her his phone number. Then the ball's in her court, pressure's off him, and he makes a ballsey intoduction. Women love that shit.
Personally, I think GenericJim101 has a decent idea: small talk cannot hurt his chances. All it does is make the question as to whether or not she's single less awkward/abrupt, and it also connects a personality to a face/name/number. This girl will remember your friend better if she has an actual personality that she can consider being interested in, rather than just a number and a face that she might correlate to someone grotesquely arrogant.
