When a good-looking stranger asks for your number, will you give it?

Earlier, I was riding in a jeepney (vehicles common in the Philippines) to school. When the jeepney stopped in a nearby “loading and unloading zone”, I turned and watched a man climb up the jeepney and then sat beside me. He had this super friendly look and smiling face when he looked at me that I caught myself by surprise – he was dead good-looking! I turned away and distract myself by watching the passing cars on the road. Then to my astonishment, the good-looking stranger tapped me on the shoulder; so, I turned to look at him. Then he asked for my number… I was stunned (I guess I’m not that cool – I’ve always been so nervous around good-looking men. Haha! ). But I simply smiled and told him that I just lost my cellphone; so, he nodded and said okay. Fortunately, the jeepney had already stopped at another “loading and unloading zone” so I immediately got down and fled. I kept on hammering my head that made the right decision about lying to that man that I don’t have a cellphone. I guessed I just could not make myself give my number to strangers whether they’re good-looking or not because I wanted to play safe. Too playing safe? Aaarrgghh.. I don’t want to think that I had wasted an opportunity back there! So he’s good-looking, big deal, right? *sigh…*
