    A few days ago I made a thread about my crush. Well... I just realised this is the last week before spring break! Should I ask for his number before school ends? We don't talk a lot, but I want to get to know him more. If some one can tell me how to go about this, that'd be great!

    Few ways that I'd go about it.
    1) talk on fb then make up an excuse like "going out for dinner with the family here's my number so we can keep chatting"
    2) organise to meet up with a group of you and say "I'll text you the details, can I have your number?"
    3) ask for his number by saying "X is happening over spring break, can I have your number do I have someone to rant to"(jokingly)
    Think 1+2 are the best bets. Just bare in mind of he doesn't know you like him it will seem completely normal to him to be asked for his number. The key is to do it at the end of or during a conversation because then if he's enjoying talking to you at the time he is more likely to remember to text you. Also that way it's less out if the blue and suspect.
    Be brave and talk to him about anything in the build up!
    Good luck! :slight_smile:

    I agree that giving your own number is the easiest option, but getting his number may be best if you don't think he would take the initiative. As long as you have a reasonable excuse, then things should go okay.

    Think of an activity you would like to do with him during break and see if he's interested.

    I'd say go for it:slight_smile: If you want to get to know him better, and maybe you've noticed he wants to get to know you better as well, it is a win, win situation. In case you are too nervous to ask him directly for his number, you can always make something up that will allow you to get it. Perhaps something about an issue with a math assignment, saying that you have to go, but here's my number, we can talk later or something like that:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: whatever you feel like will work best for you ^.^

    Does this work? I didn't ask him yet, but this is what I was thinking.

    Me: Hey, you excited for spring break?
    Him: Yup, finally!
    Me: Got any plans?
    (Hopefully he isn't going away)
    Him: Nope. I'm not going anywhere.
    Me: So you'll be all alone?
    Him: Yea. :frowning2:
    Me: Then maybe we can hang out sometime. I hear (movie name) is a good movie.

    I'm actually not scared of bullies. Our school is very liberal. Last year, they even took a day to educate kids about why anti-gay bullying is bad.

    Really, I'm only scared of rejection.

    Thank you, and best of luck to you as well.
