It just isn’t accepted etiquette to ask for someone’s number straight off the bat anymore. Even in real life, girls (and maybe even guys) are now wary of handing out their number to someone they just met in a bar. Instead, they might offer their Snapchat or Instagram handle. If you want to ensure that you get another date from your Tinder match, then try giving them a few days before you ask them for their number. If you still feel so inclined after a few days have passed, then simply send a dating text asking if they would be happy with giving you their phone number so that you can take things further. When it comes to dating apps there is no hard and fast rules – everyone is different – so there is no guarantee that asking for their number later on will work. But if you want to give yourself the best possible chance of dating success then it’s definitely worth waiting a few days before asking them for their number. Leaving things longer than a day might even make you stand out from the crowd, because everyone else is desperate to get hold of your phone number as soon as possible. Asking someone for their number after a date or two might be considered a little over keen and can put people off dating altogether. If you don’t ask until at least three days after speaking with them online, then this should tell them how laid-back you are about dating and things shouldn’t seem quite so serious!
