    Go up to the Girl and say”Hi there, I’m supposed to be meeting a blind date and i have lost my phone. I need to call her so that we can identify each other.” You then ring your number which have written on a piece of paper. Your phone then rings in your back pocket. Then say “Would you credit it your my Blind date, Small world isn’t it”. You now have her phone number and an ice breaker all sortered.

  • Jo Jones

  • Seve

    By not being so cheesey!
    Just get to know them confidently (a bit of dutch courage) and go for it, if you want her number to carry things on then just wait and get it later on that evening just by saying can I have your number so we can do this again…
    This way you also don’t come across as a stalker (by randomly phoning her…)

  • steve

    can you ring me please, I lost my phone :)

  • Joe Maylin

    Throw on a bit of the old charm, and then give a reason you need to phone her later, this can be as simple as “We should meet up again sometime, give me your number and I’ll you”. The simplest plans are always the best ones.

  • http://www.facebook.com/karen.whitemse Karen White Mse

    I just ask for it! What’s the point in playing games? If they’re interested, then great, if not, move on-if you have to jump through hoops to get a number then what might you have to do later on? No thanks :P

  • ges

    Ask for their number so that you can chat to them for free (giffgaff to giffgaff) as you both have something in common & should get to know each other sometime.

  • Kirat Bending Rodriguez

    I’ve found the best way is to simply ask for it.
    I’ve been through chat up lines and the sort, and they can be hit or miss. The best way to let the other person know where you stand is to go up to them, be honest and tell them that you find them attractive and if you could have their number to call them some time – confidence is a huge turn on for most people.

    That’s pretty much how I met my wife, and it all started with a bit of a chat over the phone in different countries, we were mad to think we could do long distance!

  • Tasha

    Ask to use their phone to call a ‘celebrity friend’ as your phone has died. Choose a celebrity who would likely appeal and chances are, they’ll be 100% more interested. Call yourself and then you’ve got their number and interest. N.B. May be awkward down the line when they find out that you know no such celebrity..

  • Steph

    Just by asking them out right……..

  • Guy watts

    To get there phone number start off the convo like hey what you up to :) how are you etc.
    then pretend you have to leave suddenly. So say I’m sorry must dash it’s important. Want to meet up later ? Can I have your number so I can text you ?

  • Kezza

    Ask them, with my good looks they are begging to give it to me anyway

  • kim

    what if they havent called you first????

  • Rob P

    Ah, the question was a bit open and non-specific. ;)
    But if they haven’t called first, I sit patiently next to the phone, rocking back and forth in a dark room, massaging the sides of my head, chanting like Abe from Abe’s Oddysee, in the hope some Derren Brown-like telepathic skill develops.
    Then, I conjure up an image of a beautiful lady calling me. 99 times out of 100, it doesn’t happen. But I must be popular, as a vast array of PPI companies love to call me.

  • http://twitter.com/Professor_Who The Professor

    Assuming I vaguely know them to start off with, I organise a mass trip to a big city with whatever group that person is involved with and ask everyone for their number in case we end up losing someone during the day. The advantage to this technique is that if things don’t work out with the first person, you’ve already got a dozen more numbers.

    Elbow Pulling – Proven Tactic

    1) Walk in to a club and gently elbow (lightly, you don’t want to be punched!!) people as you walk through.
    2) People will start turning around and looking at you.
    3) In the distance where you are walking, girls/guys will notice everyone turning around looking at you.
    4) You’ll be perceived to look hot or/and in demand.
    5) Approach a girl/guy and get their number.

    1) Punch the first 6 digits of your mobile phone # into your calculator [including the first 0, don't worry if your calculator only shows 5 digits].
    2) Multiply by 800.
    3) Add 1.
    4) Multiply by 250.
    5) Add the last five digits of your mobile phone #.
    6) Add the last five digits of your mobile phone # again.
    7) Subtract 250.
    8) Divide by 2.

    Then ask them to show you the calculator :)

  • meggiemoo!

    Go on ‘who wants to be a millionarre’ but before hand

    they’ll give it to you anyway!

If she likes you, then you will get her number, if she doesn’t then you know right away not to waste any time worrying about it. I think honesty to start, the cheesy and humorous compliments can come later!

    If answer = “no” : say “thank god I’ve got one with me, please write your number here” and hand her a pen and paper.

    i want to tell you your fortune. *take her hand and write your name & number on it* there’s your fortune.

  • Sam Joy

    Hello I’ve lost my number, can I have yours?

  • http://twitter.com/iwantcurry Ryan

    I can do this cool trick with your phone, I will dial my phone number and the ringtone will be the same as yours.

  • beuxy_luss

    simply asking…excuse me, what was your phone number again..?? ;) ))))

  • Ross Sturgeon

    Firstly i would get to know the person. Checking if she has a good personality over looks, also i guess looks are a bonus and if i could get to know her better then I would ask for her number and then. If she knew me well enough she would “most likely” say yes, and we could go from there.

  • Ross Sturgeon

    Make them a song, and sing it to them. It will most likely work.

  • Bradley Watkins

    It actually works and guarantees you getting the number.

  • KieronyM

  • seaurchin

    Walk up to the girl behind the bar and buy a drink. Spend £6. Ask her if she would be happy if you gave her one…..’PAUSE…..to save the change from the £10

  • BenG_80

    Best way? No cheesy one liners, no cliche ‘moves’. Just being genuine, polite, charming and complimentary. Basically, the best way is simply by earning it in order to deserve it.

  • Rod

    Well, is really easy… Just give her a phone you have and of course you know the number and that’s it, you already have the number so you can call her anytime. Don’t tell me is expensive, a basic phone worth less than ten pounds, and as time is money, you will save time… and money too ;p

  • http://twitter.com/jimdgreen James Green

    Just ask?

  • Phoebe-Lin Elnan

    Pretend you’ve lost your phone, groping around in your bag frantically and ask the person of interest to call you to make sure it’s really lost before lo and behold, it was in your bag all along! Cue relief and a conversation with someone whose number you have and who has yours. TA DA! (Only works if you’re alone, unless you pretend your friend didn’t bring their phone/has no credit on phone)

  • Saudi Sadiq

    Oh, my boss is looking for a beauty like you to employ as a secretary. Can I have your phone number so that he call you?

  • xkirstybrownx

    shower them in compliments and a few gifts and make her smile :-) worked for me! X

  • Naman

    go up to the person and ask for the time, when he/she gives you the time then say “talking about numbers, whats yours”?

  • kennyleedham1

    et her see your interested. Look a little shy. Little smile. And write down your number on a card. Not down “I’d love to see you again” smile, pass it her and walk away. It’s written down. She saw your sweet vulnerable side, and she will always have your number for when she is ready to call. Every time she looks at that card. She’ll be thinking of you.It may take a few days. But guaranteed she’ll call.

    I suddenly met the heartattack when I saw you. The only way to save my life is to give me your number and I call ‘her’ to stop.

  • Chert Jirayu

    Run up to her, check her pulse and immediately scream for an ambulance. Keep telling her that everything’s going to be okay and that she had a terrible fall. Then, ask her how bad it was falling out of heaven.

  • LBO

    If you were a snot, I’d pick you first.

  • Adilxx

    Go up to the hottest girl in the room & tell her you dont mean to be rude but need help getting someone’s number near by. She will say okay & tell you to talk to the girl nicely & romantically. She will most defiantly ask who the girl is, point to a mirror near by & say that angel there (pointing at her) any chance I can get your phone number?

  • Ryan Willams

    What is your favourite technique for getting someone’s phone number?

    Ladies like a guy with confidence, especially when you’re making the first move to get her number. Don’t appear shy or distant. Comment on the way she is dressed, but don’t seem sleazy. Make sure she is doing most of the talking and really listen to what she has to say. Make her feel comfortable by not coming on too strong. Keep the conversation to around 30 minutes before you leave. Leave her wanting more.

    Before you leave, ask her for her number and produce a way to record it. Don’t form yourself to what she wants. If you do get her number and it does look like it will be something serious, you will be scrambling to keep your likes and dislikes straight. If she is really interested in you, it should be for the real you, not for what you think she would want.

    Girls can be hard to understand. They can also be intimidating. Whatever you do, try to remain calm and relaxed. Being tense will not help things. Remember that getting a girl’s number can take some time and practice before actually getting it.

  • Adilxx

    Stare at her from a distance then aproach her & say, wow can I have directions to your heart.. Because I’m so lost in them eyes. Any chance I can get your phone number?

  • Adilxx

    Tell her your filthy rich & you won’t even need to ask for her number, she will give you hers.

    As a girl is walking out interrupt her and sit her down. Start by acting really worried and tell a friend to “call” an ambulance. Once the girl starts to ask what’s going on tell her that she has had a terrible fall. When she say no I haven’t tell her really cos I swear you just fell out of heaven

    This would definitely make me give him my number: “I don’t usually do this, BUT: I’ve been watching you for like an hour, so I thought it would be wisier to come to you and get straight to the point before you actually think that I’m a creepy, psycho stalker… I think you’re absolutely stunnig and I guess as smart as beautiful, so lets do this: take this note with my number and keep it safe. Whenever you’ll want to talk to me again, just text me and so I’ll have yours only when you’ll consider I should. Probably after finding out at least what is your name which I totally forgot to ask for in this desperate trying to get your attention. It’s been a pleasure!

  • Derek Drake

    Focus on the date, not the number.

    Only get her number once you’ve discovered a shared interest for
    something – art galleries, sushi, live music, it doesn’t matter. Then
    you can casually say “hey, give me your number, I’ll let you know when
    I’m free and we can try that new sushi place”. The phone number should
    never seem like the goal of the conversation, just a natural part of
    your conversation.

    Hi I have lost my calender,would you please be my date

  • Natalie White

    Pretend you can’t find your phone in your bag, and ask if they’ll give your mobile a call as you think you’ve lost it…! Then when then call it for you and you miraculously find your phone, you’ve got their number on your call record, and you can give them a ring later to say thank you very much for their help, and could you buy them a coffee sometime to say thank you? Tadaaaaah – phone number AND a date! Now that’s got to be worth a prize ;)

  • Katherine

    Take a picture with both of you in it. Ask if you can have their number to send it to them! Never fails :)

  • Chris Watkins

    In a professional encounter its always easy to ask for a business card which makes it simple and stress free so when it comes to calling there is no pressure.

  • Joanna

    Pretending I have to call someone urgently but my phone is dead. Then calling my number from their phone.

  • Chris Watkins

    plan a date, a time and a location to make your perfect move. Before you strike you need these essentials: a huge chocolate bar (big enough for two), a Chick Flick or maybe a Rom Com (a chick flick would raise suspicions, I will explain later), to be dressed in casual smart clothes (not to smart due to sleaziness), when you meet you must walk into your target (only a brush of the shoulder, you dont want to ruin your chances before you begin, whn you accidentally walk into you target you drop your chocolate and dvd so that they can see it on the floor, hopefully she will help you to pick them up, she will notice your sensitive side just by looking at what you dropped, and as she helps you to pick up the items you do the classic go to pick the same thing up at the same time routine, which will progress to wooing her

  • Kitten

    I’ve always found asking directly (but nicely!) usually does the trick! x

  • Joseph Mitchell

    Her – “got a spare cigarette?”
    Me – “yeah got a telephone number?

  • carlton

  • carlton

    I was blinded by your beauty so I’m going to need your name and number for insurance reasons

    Shamefully, asking to borrow their phone to call my own . . . *blush!*

  • BlahBlahBlahLamboKun

    Okay so let’s see… You want her number because you like her, right?

    If you’re in school, uni, or a bar, make sure the event is planned. Get to know the audience and her friends. Pay them if necessary. Numbers for numbers huh (cash for phone number). Sing her a song or write her a poem and then go for it xD Like like like…. I know it’s shit but let’s think…

    You kept me sane, you kept me alive,
    You kept me happy, you stayed by my side.
    You gave me faith, you gave me hope,
    You built it well, even I couldn’t cope
    -With, the way you made me feel,
    Safe, secure, you helped me heal,
    From the fear that was once instilled in me,
    I couldn’t imagine it better, not ever, I can now see
    -Why I can’t find flaws in you,
    Why I can’t believe a thing or two, they say
    -”Hey she felt my” – anyway,
    False, lies, a mere disguise, for the image that they create,
    “Big man”, “hard man”, they can’t relate,
    To what we felt, that very one nine,
    Your words, my words, we synchronise
    I still don’t get why they hate you so much?
    Is it their ego, their pride, or simply your gentle touch;
    Your naïve smile, your sweet soft voice, I wish I could play it, given the choice
    This is probably too random now, I don’t know what relevance this has, it just rhymes somehow,
    I just wanted you to realise, this is me, there’s no surprise, no disguise, I can’t tell lies, not to my girl, not to you, and especially not, to my Pi-ka-chuu
    I can’t even tell what this is about, -I look in the mirror-, is that a smile, maybe a pout?
    Oh I forgot, this is a love poem,
    I’m ashamed of the words cause there’s no way I can flow-’em
    But Just like a xylum, you are my phloem,
    Just like Ash, needs his ‘chu, I can’t deny, that I need chu.
    I know I haven’t given you much,
    No money, no gifts, nothing, as such,
    But put your hand in mine, feel my touch
    Rest your head on my shoulder, because you were able to solder,
    My heart, when I felt bleh
    I can’t describe it, it but you were theh
    For me, and then I tripped, I fell for you,
    Tumbling, couldn’t see through,
    Anything, but I knew, no matter what would happen, I could still see you.
    I still don’t know what I’m saying, but maybe that’s what makes this special, maybe the fact that this last line doesn’t rhyme, wait, it just did, oh f…-iddle with my shirt cause I’m stu-pid,
    But not stupid enough to ignore,
    You aren’t a slut, a bitch, and never, a whore
    You’re cuddly, fuzzly, warm and bubbly
    You’re more than what I could ask for, and that’s why I was sad,
    I’m sorry I doubted you, but it was just a tad,
    Before I realised, through the lies of pain,
    I love you, I love you, and you know I’ll say it again
    I love you, I trust you, I believe you,
    And if you ever hear this, then you’ll know it’s true.

    After that, ask her out xD well, chances are if she said yes then you’ll get her number (which should be 69;). And if she said no then your poem should be sweet enough to make her go all aww and she’ll end up giving her number anyways xD

    And yeah, this is a real poem that I wrote for someone

    Easy, just ask for it- politely of course- if she likes you enough she will give you it, if she doesnt then it saves you wasting time because she wont give it anyway (or her real one) if she doesnt like you.

    If I’m a mutual friend to someone, I find out that so and so likes so and so, so I get the 1st ones number saying the 2nd one wants it (so hopes are high, and they think its love), and I do the same for the 2nd person. So I get 2 numbers, plus they start talking to eachother so, its a win win situation!

  • DG

    Me: Hey, sorry to trouble you. I sort of misplaced my phone and need your help. Would you be so kind as to dial it for me? I am just so careless and I’m losing my mind thinking about what I’ve done with it! (Little bit frantic but still keeping cool)

    Her: Err, Yeah…sure….(bit reluctant)

    Me: Cheers…(rings) …Ah look it’s on vibrate, deep in my coat pocket. It’s always the last place you look right? Silly me. Thank you so much for that. Can I at least buy you a drink seeing as you so kindly saved me from having a panic attack?

    Her: Sure, why not?

    Me: So what’s your name?

    Her: XxXxXxX

    Me: So, why’s a pretty lady like you standing here all by your lonesome? (Casually enters name…against last missed call)

    Her: Well, helping careless guys like you find their phones by the looks of it! Why else?

    I got my husband’s by nearly getting run over, jumping over a fence and thrusting my number into his hand, how could he resist that?! He text me the next day, and the rest, as they say, is history! Though I did need him to remind me what he looked like when we had arranged to meet up, but no matter! My other method is severe tickling; hands, feathers, straw, it all works. You’ll get that number, for sure.

    Use the “Yes” Technique. This is a technique used in sales that works in the dating world also. Ask the person a series of questions where their answer is “Yes.” For example, “So you like eating huh?” Yes… “So you would rather eat pancakes over eggs?” Yes… “Do you like eating pancakes with your friends?” Yes… “Would you like to get pancakes with me sometime?” Hopefully the answer will be yes and then ask for the number to arrange the date.
