Re: RLY!?!

Mate, none of what you said above is cool. If you're delivering stuff to someone, serving them food, any kind of day-to-day thing, taking their phone number and texting them weird flirty stuff is awful. The number was provided for business purposes, not to set up a date.

It's one thing to ask a person for their number in a social setting. It's another to delve into a customer record and pull out a contact detail and pester them.

Now imagine this happening every week - it could be on twitter, uber, just eat, work email. It gets old really quick and it's just creepy and sad. If you want to ask someone out, do it properly.
