Ladies - why do you give your phone number to guys who you do not want to call you? You know what I'm talking about - you give your number, and when the guy calls, you don't pick up, and you don't return his voicemail message. Why did you give him your number in the first place, since you obviously didn't want him calling you?

they are trying to let you down easy, its unfortunate that they can't tell you from the beginning that they are not interested.

Because girls are EVIL!! I never did that. I guess they do that out of pity and don't want to be "mean". Obviously they would cause the guy less pain if they never gave him their number in the first place instead they mislead him and give him false hope. Alot of girls are just so dependant on attention no matter who the source! I always thought that was too much work anyways, so if I had no interest in the guy he never got my digits.

I never give out my real number. Most of the time I will tell the guy I'm not interested...but if he persists, or if I'm at the bar...I will give him my old cell phone number. It's a lot easier when you know the number you will be giving out, then being drunk at the bar trying to make up a number. You never know how someone will react if you try to blow them off.

Well a lot of time it just catches you off-guard if a guy asks for your number. However, I would pick up the phone and talk to a guy I had given by number.

Ive done it a few times years ago and its just a matter of being drunk and not thinking about what you are doing, or not wanting to be nasty. I usually gave out the wrong number, or if i did give the right one, I would regret it until they got the hint.
Dont take this personal though, people dont know you well enough to dislike you, its usually embaressment.

I'm married now but back when I was single, I never gave out my number. If a guy was interested in me, I would ask for his email address and go from there. I lived with my family throughout my early twenties and did not want strange men calling our home.

One, Guys will harass us until we either give the number
Two, SOME women like to play hard to get which makes htem feel good when you keep come crawling back
Three, Sometimes we just don't have the time. Give a little, get a little.

BECAUSE sometimes it's easier than dealing with you at the moment. Lame, but true... if you are at a bar and drunk and asking for a number - if we say no, you may either harass us until we cave, or you may get nasty, even violent.
some of us have learned to give a fake number to get annoying guys OFF OUR BACKS.
Sorry, I know it's really immature, but maybe we don't want to hurt your feelings in your face, or maybe we are afriad you'll get nasty with us of we say no.

see the reason why i do it is because i have respect and i don't won't the guys to make it think that I'm a mean girl fortunately i don't have to answer it but i shouldn't always give my number out because you never know why they want your number or if the going to give it out or something. but if you know them and you don't like them at least be nice to give them your number but don't never answer the calls which i do that...and on my voice-mail i make it seems like I'm talking to them but I'm really not and it tickles me to death when i know that there talking back to me and when there holding a conversation i just say it out of know where " i not hear but thanks for saying all of that can you repeat it on my voice mail."

To get him out of our face at the time he encounters us....he insisted on getting our number...because he knew there would be no chance that we would call him. We just ignore him..and like bad weather..hope he will pass...and move on to some other area.

I dont; some women are taught its impolite to turn down a man but i always believed it gave false hope. I did meet a guy once who introduced himself tomy girlfriends and I saying that he had a friend for all of us. He was smitten with one of our friends and he stayed with us (next to her of course) all night. HE chatted it up with all of us. Turns out he was being honest and I met the love of my life through him. Although it didnt end like a fairy tale, I will always appreciate him for that.
