UPDATE

Sooo I finally gave him my number.We work for the same company but we hardly get a chance to actually have conversation given we work in different departments and don't have work related interactions. I always see him in passing,and sometimes I don't see him at all.Whenever I do run into it's either I'm in hurry to go back on my floor or he's busy with a client.He also takes his lunch time different from mine.I'm unable to take my lunch at the same time which makes things rather difficult when I want to talk to him.So today I caught him alone in his office and I went in.I handed him a note folded with my number on it..he gave me perplexed look then I said ''text me sometime".He paused for moment then he figure it out what the note is about then he was like "sure".I then I had to go back to my department so while I was walking away he was like "see you later !"

I'm scared that he might not text/call but at least I will know that I tried.

If so again I really hope you get lucky

I'm very proud of you. You did what many men couldn't get the balls to do.I hope things work for you. Now that you took the reigns, let him take some now.

Good for you. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Just don't let it get to you too much if he was just being a nice, polite guy and never does.
Like you said....at least you let him know you're willing.

I'm sorry to hear that things didn't work out, but at least you won't have to always wonder about him. I'm still upset that my coworker ignored my Super Like on Tinder. I only saw him once at work after the Tinder incident and that was months ago, but I'm definitely not bold enough to just give him my number like you did. I could creepily send him a message on Facebook, but I don't want to do that. He has several female Facebook friends from work who I could try to get to know in an attempt to get to him through them, but I don't really want to do that either. A lot of the girls he talks to at work aren't even pretty so I don't really understand why he ignores me. Why am I not good enough and they are???

I think it highly depends on the guy you're giving the number to.

If it's a gang bang player, he'll just show it off to his buddies to get a good laugh at the ____ he's able to score with.

If it's a good guy, then he'd be considerate and act appropriately. Most likely you'd get a response one way or the other
