Would you give your phone number to a complete stranger that

[Tuesday Afternoon]

you just met in the Grocery Store?

[LeftyMom]

1. If I were single and they were hot.

It's my phone number, not my social security number. Worst case scenario, they're a total freak and I have to get my number changed. :shrug:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

3. I am single and he is pretty cute. Nice eyes and a good smile.

Friendly face and simple conversation.

[Ptah]

2. Perhaps. Does she have a book in her possesion?

Maybe she's buying a plant.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

4. weekly grocery shopping stuff...produce, milk, bread, veggies

that sort of thing.

[Ptah]

5. Complete stranger, then no. If saw her for a couple of weeks, similar schedule,

Then maybe I would.

6. It depends on what they're buying...

I meet women in the grocery all the time.

Personal experience: If they're buying red meat, Velveeta or hot dogs, it's not going to work out. I can't respect me or you in the morning.

7. If there was mutual attraction and he asked for it, probably.

But probably only with my first name. Unless it's a land line or he's a gifted hacker, he won't be able to find where you live. And maybe you'd get a true love or a good friend. You could find a total asshole, but few among the overall asshole population are outright murdering rapists. If I had a good gut feeling, and I wasn't drunk, I'd definitely do it.

[Lucian]

8. Sure.

I've done it before and I'll do it again.

[Richard Steele]

9. No. If the "instant vibe" was that good, there'd be no need for phone numbers.

My ex-sweetie and I were together for 9 years and a week.

We were at my place 4 hours after we met,
and then we woke up, had breakfast,
and drove 30 minutes to HER place
where we spent 48 hours with the doors locked.

She was driving me to work Monday morning
when she tentatively asked me if I wanted to know
what her name was.

It was a week or two after that before we exchanged phone numbers.

So, to answer your question: NO.
NEVER give your phone number to anyone you don't know!

[cwydro]

10. Probably not.

Remember now, Ted Bundy was good looking and had a nice smile too.:scared:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

17. But, did he have two kids in college and a house on the Lake?

and One kid still at home ;)

[cwydro]

20. Ahhh,

now THAT is a different kettle of fish!

Um, I'm hoping there's no wife either at the lake or at home.;-)

[Tuesday Afternoon]

21. He has been divorced for 4 years...That is a Rule I will not break--

MUST BE DIVORCED FOR AT LEAST ONE FULL YEAR and preferably longer.

That is a MUST for me.

[cwydro]

23. Very good rule.

I hope it works out for you.:)

[Tuesday Afternoon]

24. ...we will see. I really don't care one way or the other...

If he calls and I answer the phone then we will go from there. I am really bad to turn off the ringers :o

[stewartcolbert08]

11. Why not?

People do it in bars and in clubs!

[blogslut]

12. Never ever

period

[In_The_Wind]

13. I think I just might.

Of course I would chat him up a bit first.



:hug: :loveya:

[NJmaverick]

14. Depends what the stanger wanted it for

[abq e streeter]

15. I say go for it--its just a phone #--not an address etc

and hope this turns into something wonderful for you; you never know...On an only slightly related subject, I hope my PM's didn't weird you out, re: your friend on the Res in Arizona. I only put in that much info about myself to let you and her know that I'm who I said I was, as a semi-public person out here ( I believe you can't be too careful these days, even though I think its great you gave this guy your #), and also realize that in retrospect my lame little joke about being "only a small -scale weirdo etc" was just that; lame, and probably inappropriate...and so I apologize for that......abq e streeter:hi:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

18. You are just fine

don't even worry about it :hug: :loveya: :hi:

[Wapsie B]

16. Yes.

What's different about doing that in a grocery store as opposed to a bar? If I were fortunate enough to have lightening strike like that yes, in a nanosecond. Then again being a guy and giving out phone numbers doesn't always yield the greatest success.

[Crazy Dave]

19. I offered my phone # to a woman I met in court

Not recommended BTW

[SPKrazy]

22. yeah

if I had reason and they had reason...hot, or met them there or , hot...did I say that?
