    A friend of mine met a girl at a bar this Sat and she gave him a fake number. What I don't get is if she wasn't interested in him is why give him a fake number at all instead of just telling him she wasn't interested?

    Just wondering if this has happened to any of you guys or for the women if you have given a guy a fake number and why you did it.

    I am married so give out my housemates number

    (not currently living with my wife)

    He appreciates it - the girls do not.

    Because they don't want to hurt the guy and see his reaction by telling him she is not interested.

    Well generally if I ask for a girl's number, I tell the girl to ring my phone right there so I don't have to bother writing down the number on a piece of paper. That way it is stored in my phone and I don't have to worry about having misheard or incorrectly writing the number down.

    But I didn't think girls really gave out false numbers. I thought it was some sort of urban legend. It's not happened to any of my friend's either (or not reported). Must be a Minnesota thing. :)

    that's pretty much it, although it may sound mean for him to realize later and feel the crushing rejection of being given a fake number, the important thing here is that by that stage she would be gone and not have to deal with it. Girls like that I think are under the pretense of being nicer to the guy when in reality they just want to avoid the awkward gesture of flat rejecting them.

    Here's a trick some dude tried on one my friends though, one way of getting their digits is to get them to dial your number and give you a missed call (convenient method of exchanging phone numbers) so that you can make sure you save their number, not that it made much of a difference, my friend kept ignoring all his calls anyway lol.

    There are some guys who won't be satisfied with a "just not interested" type of response. The guy will think the girl's playing hard to get, or maybe that they'll admire his persistence, or some guys really do bank on the wear-em-down-mentally strategy.

    I give my number and always refuse to take a girls number. Put the ball in their court, if they care they can handle it. Its beautiful. Had a friend give a fake number to a Hooters girl the other day. The answer is simple, you give falsies when you aren't interested.

    That seems crueler like they are leading them on. I don't know all the details but my friend is somewhat introverted so I don't think he initiated talking to her and from what I have seen he isn't pushy about demanding phone numbers. He's not happy about it though and it seems like she was leading him on.

    My own opinion is that it would be better just to say she's not interested.

    In the age of cell phones it seems like that is the way to go is just call each other's phone if you are serious about exchanging numbers.

    Nah, I don't believe that. You just need to travel more! ;)

    I've never had that happen to me and have never given out a fake number myself, but ages ago, when I was "on the prowl," I certainly made up goofy reasons to get myself out of the clutches of a member of the fair sex. The lines would seem groovy at the time, but the next day I'd remember doing it and realize some of them were lame. We got pretty loaded back then. Some days, it was a miracle that I remembered anything from the night before. Fortunately, I wasn't a big drinker. That helped a lot. And I frequently didn't go to sleep, which helped as well.

    I think some don't won't to be mean and some just doesn't know how a guy will come back if they say no. I've seen dudes curse woman out just because they wouldn't give them their number.
