“lol just be up front lol”

The guy who will call your number immediately to check is not the guy that takes an up front ‘no’. Men have the freedom to be up front in the dating scene because the risk of sexual or physical violence is much less than for women.

If she’s given you a fake number, it’s most likely because she’s not interested in you, but doesn’t trust you enough to handle up front rejection. As other commenters have said, there is a physical disadvantage for a woman if she upsets the wrong man.

And what do you win by calling her bluff? She wasn’t interested in you before, and how you’ve put her on the spot. Either you’ve just made the whole situation more uncomfortable, or you’re trying to coerce a woman into giving you her private details that she is evidently unwilling to share. I wonder why.
