Ask out or ask for a phone number same thing or not? (pros and cons)

[Spinning Spinning]

So is this the same thing or not? Is one response likely to differ to the other? Any pros or cons would one or the other make said girl feel more comfortable?

I just want it to end either way RC......it's more the saga than the girl that's killing me and it has to stop........there's only one way I can do that......and it's not by freezing her out......today is the day.....I have a plan.......wish me luck.......either way by the end of the day I'm gonna be feeling a shightload better about things.

You've heard of FML? Well FMW. She's the problem here not the solution.
