Just a tip to help guys not waste their time with minimially interested or non interested attention seekers that will give you their number just for status among their friends as to how many guys they have texting them.
I typically trade a few messages back and forth then I'll say something like "We should grab a drink sometime and talk more in person."
Now, most times I'll get a "sure", or "yeah that would be great", but sometimes you'll get a "that might work" or "that's a possibility" or "maybe". Those are lukewarm to non-interested answers.
My typically response is "Well I deal in yes or no, not might or maybe. So which one is it?"
Straight to the point, no BS.
What this does is two things. First, it prevents you from wasting your time by getting their number to set up a date, because 90% of the time they'll give you the number anyway. Secondly, it lets them know you aren't going to tolerate a wishy washy BS response from them and that you'll just walk away. This might be enough to make her more interested if she is on the fence, as you are not willing to be strung along like 90% of the dudes who would just be like "Cool" and then ask for their number.
If she responds negatively then you just saved yourself wasted time and energy. Win win situation. Push the issue. Don't let them give you the maybe. They can save that for the next chump they talk to.
