if a guy asks me for my phone number?

I'm a little surprised your asking this...

It of course depends of the situation, but if a guy has worked up the courage, pushed his insecurities aside, beaten the fear of rejection to ask you for a phone number??

Yes, he likes you.

I usually only ask for a phone number if I'm attracted to a girl and want to spend more time. If I just want to be friends, I'm usually more casual about it.

Honestly it can be both ways. If he randomly asks for your phone number or something when you are walking in real life and you aren't really good talkative friends, then he is probably interested in you. However, if he messages you something impersonal, asks for your phone number really casually, and you talk a lot hang out a lot with pretty platonic feelings then it's probably just friendship. This is actually a really hard question but generally when I ask a girl's phone number it means I like them. I am not generally "friends" with girls, although those do exist I don't attempt to make those sorts of friendships, they just happen.

He is interested in something you have, but not necessarily interested in you. He may be interested in your car, your sister or your awesome math skills.

Just because a guy asks for your phone number, don't go thinking he likes you. He just wants to keep in touch because you have something he wants. He also may just like you and may want to get to know you better - but there can be a bunch of other reasons.

Play it safe!

Well it mainly would depend on his personality, I could ask a girl for her phone number because I like her, but I diguise it as just being friends. But if you guys have known each other for a pretty long time, and you guys know that you don't like each other then the answer it obvious.

It depends, Some men are sincere and some are not. Use your first judgment. If the guy looks like someone you could be interested in then give him your number but if he doesn't then there are a lot of rejection hot line numbers on line. It's your choice.

well, I knew a guy that had a gf, but he gave me his phone number, and asked for mine, so I guess he just wants to be friends. It's normal for a guy to ask for a girls phone number without meaning anything. But of course, that means he likes you and doesn't think your retarded or whatever.

They are obviously interested in you, but it really comes down to a numbers game for the guy since most girls will flake or be "too busy" so it isn't a huge deal in itself..

Guys ask for every girl's number. They only call the ones they want to get to know.

We ask for your phone number so we can call you up and ask you out...

Most of the time interested.
