Hello, I love you
Today, I had a very good-looking guy ask for my number while I was at work, but due to our policies I had to turn him down. FML

Today, a cute guy came up to me and asked for my phone number. I was super excited and began to write it down when he said, "It doesn't have to be your real number, I'm not gonna call anyway." I still gave him my real number. FML

Take a number
Today, the guy I've been flirting with for a week, and would be meeting in two days, sent me a message that he wouldn't be able to text me this evening because he'll be on a date. FML

Today, a cute guy asked for my phone number and I gladly gave it to him. I was feeling really good about myself for getting hit on by the star football player. That was until he called 8 times and left 5 messages. In 2 hours. FML

Nice guy
Today, I finally worked up the courage to ask a cute guy for his number. Once he had given me his, he asked for mine. My initial happiness was deflated when he said, "OK, now I can just block every message from you," and walked away. FML

Today, the really cute guy who asked for my number last night texted me. He wanted to know if he could get my friend's number, because he'd been too shy to ask her directly. FML

Today, like for the last year, I’ve been on Tinder. I was having a great conversation with a man and we were planning a date for next week when he asked for my number. When I politely responded that I’d rather wait to exchange numbers after meeting in person, he blocked me. FML

Today, I was talking to a nice guy on a dating app and we exchanged numbers. Later, I got a call. It was his wife asking me to stop talking to her husband. FML

Today, as my lame excuse to not give a guy I met at a club my phone number, I told him I didn't have a cell phone. Guess what I checked when he asked me what time it was a few minutes later. FML

It's better you learned he's not interested now than when you're more involved...trust me

He's not a douche, he told her straight up that he wasn't interested. That's better than being led on and lied too. It's not the end of the world OP.

Better to have loved then lost, then to have never...... Wait. Oops. Sorry OP:(

Better that way. He wasn't interested but the easy way was to take your number and just never call. He took the more brave and honest route of telling you straight. It's a knock for you, but "who dares wins" as they say in the SAS. One of these times it will work. You both sound brave and honest and I'm sure you will both find excellent partners, even if not together.

At least he didn't lead you on!

trying to plant yourself in his heart, inception. finding out he wasn't flirting, deception.

He was one of those that only cared about the "chase"

Good thing he told you the truth rather than waiting until you guys were in the middle of a relationship. I think that worked out well for you, OP. :)

You might take this as a wake up call. Not all people who flirt/seem to be flirting want to ask you out. If a guy, or girl, is interested in you then they will ask for your number to continue the banter. I exchange contact information with new friends within a week of knowing them (or if they aren't at school, within the first meeting if we get on well). I exchange contact information with potential dates within the first day or two of knowing them if we hit it off. I will know if someone seems like someone I want to date or not. Sometimes it takes longer, like with an old friend who progresses to something else, but even then it doesn't take several weeks for a guy to mention he thinks you are cute and would like you to go out. So if they guy does not figure out some clever way to get you to keep coming by and hanging around him, he is either bored-flirting or being polite.
