- Prioritize safety first.
- Ask them to give their number first.
- Ask him to try you in any other way.
- Directly saying NO.
- Showing disinterest in sharing info.
- Being honest and clear.
- Never share because of pressure.
- Also, do not give any fake number.
Also asked, how do you respond when someone asks for your number?
Just tell him no.
- For instance, you could say, "Thanks for asking, but I'm not interested."
- You can also just give him a number to stay in touch as friends, as long as you are abundantly clear about it. For instance, you could say, "I don't mind giving you my number, but I would only do so as friends.
Additionally, how do you politely refuse to give your number? When people ask for your phone number just say that you don't like to give out your phone number but you would “love to give you my email so we can keep in touch”. If you are surrounded by others, simply agree and say that you will share your phone number later, and change the subject.
Similarly, it is asked, what does it mean when someone asks for your number?
You don't know. Some guys go around just collecting phone numbers because it's good practice for hitting on women. If a guy is interested in you, treats you like a lady, and you send him good signals (you are user friendly) and as you break apart, he asks for a phone number, it means he's interested.
Is it dangerous to give out your phone number?
If you're truly skeptical about giving someone your phone number, you should use a forwarding service. But generally speaking, you're quite safe giving your phone number out, even if it's to a complete stranger. Modern day smartphones have a block feature which you can use at your convenience.
