A question for the ladies:

[James]

How approachable are you?

Ok say you met a guy in line somewhere . . . and he struck up a conversation with you, you got a cool vibe, he was flirty, and he asked for your number . .

Would you be willing to give him it (the real one) and be willing to pursue something on such a casual meeting?

Should guys try and apporach women they meet casually like that?

[Buttonz]

It depends. If I get a good vibe, I'd think about giving him my screen name and then go from there. I'm more likely to give out my screen name then I am to give out my phone number, because you can always block a person online.

Sure, I would give my phone number. I have no problem saying if I later get a wierd vibe, "I'd rather you not call me anymore."

[kk_bama]

Assuming I was single, I probably would. But only with a really good vibe, and only if it was a lengthy-enough conversation for me to know he's not a weirdo.

I would do no such thing.

Even if he's flirty, you get a good vibe from him, and has good convo with you, there's no guarantee that deep down, he's psycho.

[MTSUGURL]

This is going to sound paranoid, but...

One reason I don't mind is that I can usually find out a birthday in the first couple of conversations. My mother works for the DA and she runs a background check before I accept a date with someone I don't know well.

I know it sounds a little out there, but I've had too many nice guys who turned out to be more than a little psycho.

[_Opi_]

I'm gonna say flat out that I am not the most easily approachable person out there.

But then again, it depends. If I was feeling him and he's nice and all that, maybe.

[polarpi]

I guess my philosophy has become more "never say never" - who would've thought I'd hit it off with someone I met at a wedding?

I'm also not the easiest to approach, I'm sure, but hopefully I wouldn't be downright rude to someone who started up a conversation with me. Who knows where it'd go from there?

I'd give him my email address, but not my phone number. I hardly ever pick up my phone for people I already know, let alone some random.

I'm like that, but a person can use your email address to look up all kinds of stuff about you. I used to do that to people all the time. I'm trying to be more open to meeting new people (I've been known to have stranger anxiety), but I don't know...I've given guys my number after talking for 5 min. and others have had to wait for weeks....it all depends on where we meet and the vibe I get from you.

Screennames? Email addresses?

He can look up all he wants about my email address, I've got like 20. He most likely would get my spam email address until I know him better anyway. I wouldn't want some stranger filling up my real email inbox.

I'm not really the type to share personal info with a guy that hits on me anyway. I prefer to be the one who approaches a guy & gets his phone number/email address/whatever.

[33girl]

Are you saying we're in line at the grocery store comparing cucumbers or something like that?

If he suggested we go get a cup of coffee or something in a public place, I would do that before giving him my phone number.

[UKDaisy]

I would def. give a guy my number if he had a cool vibe. If it doesn't work out so what, just dont' answer your phone when he calls.
