Do you give your number out?

Jump to: Newest in thread

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

I know this has been done before, but do you give your number out, to Fabbers, particularly ones you haven’t met yet?

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

Yes. But only after swapping a few messages and feeling comfortable about it

I don’t really have any kind of issue with it, I’ve nothing to hide if they were desperate to try and find me on other social media so it wouldn’t gain them anything.

The problem is that I hardly ever use my phone, I do everything on my iPad, so I barely register stuff that goes on on my phone.

Your phone number is a single point of failure - it could be used to login to social media platforms, Gmail, bank accounts etc. Yes you trust someone now. But what happens when it goes awry in six months? Or someone they know gets hold of it? It's a valuable piece of information. I don't give it away anymore.

After messaging, and all seems great, I always give out my number as it's the logical next step to seeing if we have a connection, but I always add that I am comfortable with them withholding theirs until after we have spoken, and that they are confident that I am within their comfort zone.

That says more about your security settings on those devices than giving your number out…. Not sure where you are getting that information from…. If you use your number to log on it sends a text so unless you have the phone it’s not the case

Shit like this happens a lot. It's easy for people to say they give their number out if they haven't been stung.

I'm pretty carefree generally in life but some things you just gotta be careful with. Once I've met someone and we get on/there's a likelihood of repeated meets then yeah absolutely swap numbers.

Like I said above. Unless it's happened to you then it's not an issue. I've had to change my number in the past due to it being misused. Others on here have also had bad experiences giving their number out. Far safer to use another app until you meet someone.

I mean what's the worst someone can do with Kik or Snapchat apart from send you unsolicited dick pics?

"I give my phone number out to those whom I think will use it wisely as I get very put off by needy texters. As an extra layer of security, I have a separate phone that only my tried and trusted fab friends have the number for. That one won’t find its way onto the Fab cubicle door

I think I need a fab phone, handy for all the explict images and conversations, at least then I won't have to keep hiding my phone from prying eyes

Back in the day, everybody had a swing phone and occasionally, you’d then give the special people your proper number- seemed to work marvellously

We have done but have ended up having to block a couple of blokes after which was a shame because they'd been good meets.

"I know this has been done before, but do you give your number out, to Fabbers, particularly ones you haven’t met yet? "

Yes I’ve done it a few times . Some have got my block tho as they kept ringing me at 3 am or messaging non stop. I hate those.

I have a separate number for fabs etc, on an old phone. So yes I'd give it out. I can always block and if they did anything untowrds with the number I can throw the sim easy enough.

More burner phones on here than an episode of Call of Duty.

I need a new mobile number as I got locked out of my Tinder account and need to create another. May as well double up as a Fab number as well.

Not a chance.

I've been contacted by couples asking for it in their opening message.

Nothing else in the messages except the words, facepic and phone number.

They may well have had 100+ veris but I'd never heard of them before those messages.

Likewise I've been given phonenumbers by women without requesting them but I've politely declined to return the favour.

If I've chatted long enough and am arranging to meet then and only then would I consider it.

You've got what to hide:your privacy. People use the phone number to find out your real id, your working place, etc. I use a separate one.

Depends on the situation. If I have physically met someone then maybe.

This is why KIK and other apps are so important to people. It gives another way to communicate other than on sites.

But if you do give your number out and wished you hadn't you can always block them.

I’ve done it for people I’m going to meet, it’s reasonable for them to have what they need to feel secure.

I haven’t had a problem so far, but it’s probably a combination of good luck and it only being a small number of people.

You can block, but they still have your number. I’m sure it was on here, a woman have here number to someone, they fell out, so he gave it to all his mates.
