    Bros if your talking to a girl and want to talk more some day its better to give her your number. It puts the ball on her court if she’s interested and isn’t imposing if she’s not. More often then not you’ll get a text by the next day if it went as well as you think.

      It’s very hit or miss. Couples are like a ying yang - they have to fit together

      There’s no one size fits all solution. You have to work out who is the pursuer and who is the pursued, and you have to keep it all in bounds where everyone is content with the process

        This is so true. I always point out to people: think of all the couples you know. How did they meet? Personally I don’t know any two couples that met the same way. It ranges from being housemates in college to finding out they lived in the same city from some internet forum.

      You realise the exact same advice could be applied in reverse, right? If the relationship’s gonna work, both people need to be interested in continuing it.

          what implies that it wouldn’t?

          If the advice is “don’t do this, let them do it”, and the advice can go both ways, it kinda doesn’t work as advice.

            Im confused about your confusion. It does work both ways. The issue, per the meme, is that someone may not have wanted to engage further and not state that they do not want to. By giving them your contact info they can think about it and then decide that it is in fact mutual and not feel pressured by the moment, so it still works as advice in that social situation.

            “if you are interested in taking to someone more, offer then your number instead of asking for theirs.”

            I don’t see the problem here?

        Only if you equate men and women because of oversimplification or desire, idk. This is not learned behaviour but innate tendencies.
