I often find this ending line the hardest part -- transition from a casual conversation to the key purpose. I've used "I thought you look nice, I would like to invite you for a coffee sometime." Lately, I've been using "you seem cool/nice, do you want to hang out sometime?" If she respond positively, I take her number.

What do you think of my way? What's yours? How long do you usually spend talking before taking the number?

I'm not an authority by any means, but when I was just a lurker here years ago one of the earliest and most useful tips that I took away was this.....Someone posted that there is exactly one way to ask a woman for her number: "What's your number?"

Brutally simple, removes extraneous straws she can grasp on to shoot you down with, and demonstrates you have the balls to cut to the chase and act decisively. Unlike so many otgrr areas of game, especially when learning, it's beautifully simple, really.

You still have to warm up to it in conversation, but once you know when you are good to ask for a number, it's pure gold. Has never failed me once. Sure, you're still going to get shot down sometimes, but it's the kind of shoot down that let's you smile and walk away with your head high and your balls intact instead of getting shot down with her saying "i don't like fish" because you stood there and meandered into asking for her number with some run-on-beat-around-the-bush excuse of a number close like "You seem really nice and I'd love to show you my saltwater fish tank so can I have your number?" that you squeeked out like a snivelling weenie. She may or may not shoot you down, but make her shout you down like a man, not because you gave her 7 ways to gracefully do it by not being able to do something so simple as to ask for her number and she smelled the desperation on you. "What's your number?" is so simple and easy it just smooths right past all of that without you getting a chance to get all self concious about it.

When I was last here about a year ago guys were even talking about handing her their phones and just saying "give me your number" so it isn't even a question, at all. Personally, I would save that for when you get a bit more advanced. "What's your number?" is pure gold, IMO.

Good luck.

OK! I'll use "what's your number?" from now on. Yeah, I feel too much bullxxxx only makes me more nervous and gives her time to make up some excuse.

i may be weird, but i never ask for numbers. we exchange full names, facebook, and we usually arrange dates by facebook, or on the spot. when on the spot, i opt for a place not far from my home, so if she flakes, she flakes :)

for me, numbers mean nothing. usually i get their numbers after we had sex, and she asks for mine to try to control me.

Yeah, I'll sort of wait for a high point in the convo then say "I really enjoyed talking to you. What's your number?" Something like that. It almost always works unless they have a boyfriend.

I'm a seeder, as in I prefer to seed things before then coming out with a line.

If you just say "I enjoyed talking to you, whats your number?" I've found that when it comes to texting the girl, it takes more effort to get her out when you could have just done it when you met her.

I prefer to arrange something, let's say I talk about some bar I like then tell her that we should go together. Then the phone number is purely for logistics, just makes everything that much easier for yourself.

It's like when I'm trying to get a girl out of a club, I seed again, if I'm talking to her, I'll mention early on that I'm hungry. Then I'll drop that subject, then when I feel it's the right time to go I tell her to come and get some food with me because I'm hungry. Nice excuse to get her out.

Seed things, you get less resistance further down the line.
 

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

"[Name], put your number in my phone." When they ask why, I say "because you're kind of cute."

"[Name], let's exchange phone numbers" (hand her your phone ready to enter a new contact).

"What's your number?"
I agree with this^^^, but I like to set it up like Mr. Wright described below.

I like this way. It's so natural, there's no awkwardness at all. It's direct but not in a direct sort of way. :)

I you two agree to meet sometime in the future, to watch a movie you two were just talking about, grab coffee at that new place that opened up, meet at a bar to woop her butt in pool (because she claims she's good and can beat you), anything....

If you agree to meet at a future date, the number is automatic, you already agreed to meet up, she has to give you her number. If she was to refuse then she'd be acting like a psycho.....

Even a simple: we should meet up for a coffee or drink sometimes. As long as she says yes/sure/okay then you get the number.

A lot of the times once you agree to some kind of future meeting they'll just give you their number without you even having to ask. :up:

I do what TheGambino does and tell them to give me their number. This however is done with in the context of a "bounce," date.

I don't really have a line but just casually whip out my phone as if checking something as things flow and simply hand it to her with you're generic 'by the way, whats your number'.

Stay simple...just ask "what's your number?" Do it with confidence and don't care if she says no. If she does, put your cell away and say "ok, see you around".

To quote the legendary Mac Dre (may he thizz in peace):
"Get in, stack a bank, and get the fvck out."

Handle your business, and get out. When I get numbers during the day I do what others in this thread have said with "I gotta get going, what's your number?"
Then I leave. Don't try to talk forever.

I'll usually hit them up over text with something general that we talked about to gauge interest, then later "what night are you free to grab drinks"
Then keep contact minimal (if any) until then.

I've noticed that whenever I try to "pre-load" a specific phrase to say when it's time to get the number, my voice will falter and I'll get weird. It's better to just keep it simple and let it come out naturally. If she likes you she won't care, and if you screw it up she won't remember later on. If she's not into it, the smoothest delivery will be ineffective.

Bad Line #1512561) "I thought you look nice, I would like to invite you for a coffee sometime."

This is probably the worst line possible. You start talking about yourself "I thought" while you should be more certain (You know). Then you qualify asking her out with a compliment "you look nice" (bad) while using the word nice. The word "nice" is very unromantic and your using it might subliminally reveal that in that situation women usually say "I think you're a nice guy but...". By the point you are ready to ask her out the buying signs should be there. The chemistry should have been established. You should have paid her one compliment already (but not as an opening line) so she already knows your romantic interest. Next, by saying "I would like to invite" - not only are you inviting her versus offering her a date, but you made it extra wordy. You mention "coffee" which was trendy in 1996 but is now cliche. Personally, I've never wanted to have coffee with a girl nor have I ever uttered the word coffee" in a pickup situation. Then with "do you want to" you are putting it up to her, and finally with "sometime" you are not establishing the time and place.

A better approach is to offer a date, and make it seem like you couldn't care less by using humor. "I'm going to (X place) at (Y time). If you played your cards right I might let you tag along, but you would have to ride in back because my cat always sits up front."

If there is chemistry then you should be able to get the number within seconds. She will smile from across the room, you will gesture for her to come over (or you approach) and by looking in her eyes you read her. If she asks your name when you ask hers and she extends her hand, you can literally feel her interest. I usually just say "Are you single?" or "Type your number in..." (handing her my phone).

I've found using the word "nice" actually makes her more curious and it really winds some girls up. What does nice even mean? It's so ambiguous that she starts to wonder "what does he really mean by that?" but then you're also being quite forward in another sense so she has the juxtaposition of the rather "weak" compliment and the obvious sexual tension thats being created. I also like to use "nice" because it feels more natural and when I use words like beautiful, if I've been seeing a girl for a while, she hangs off words like that because it's so rare. I rarely give out hyperbolic compliments and usually just give compliments like "nice" or "lovely".

Different strokes, different folks.
