Sorry, I didn’t mean my question to come across as “don’t ask us this stuff.” It was a honest question. Maybe she’s a dating newbie, maybe she’s sharing because it’s a funny story. I’m enjoying this thread; I wouldn’t be participating otherwise. Knowing why she’s asking can only make it better. ---

Text him and ask him during the texts how he first noticed you? Who knows, maybe through texts you’ll get a feel of him. ---

Gotlift is right ,the purpose is to have a fun and interesting conversation about it at this point other than trying to figure it out Some of these responses are keeping me interested and entertained ---

Ya, chop-chop, Marylnshephards! It’s been three or four days since he gave you his number. Where are you going to hang out? If it were my city, I’d suggest [Long’s Meat Market](http://longsmeatmarket.com/)! ---
