why give a phone number to a stranger just because you talk for a while

why give a phone number to a stranger just because you talk for a while?
I recently posted a question about whether Dutch girls have a particular aversion to giving out their phone number; as in 3 separate experiences with Dutch girls this past weekend, all 3 balked at my request for their mobile number after we had been talking for a good amount of time. In the US, I've not regularly had this issue when chatting up girls at the bars or clubs. This is 1 answer I got: 'They don´t want stalkers on the phone, my friend. It has nothing to do with directness, but why give your phone number to a stranger, just because you talk to him for a while? Next time, give them your number. If they are interested, they´ll call you.' Now, my impression was that the Dutch people are generally direct and concise, so I thought Dutch girls would be more forward about showing a lack of interest than talking to a guy for a half-hour and then shooting him down when he asks for a contact. The question I pose in the subject of this post: is it not the point in giving this stranger your number after you've talked for a while? It's not as though you're going to continue talking to them for 48 hours straight in that one spot in the bar; people have to go home and you exchange contact info to resume an interaction at a later time. Is the second part of that answer I got have something to do with the goal of gender egalitarianism in Dutch society? Instead of the classic 'guy gets girl's number and she has to wait to see if he will call her,' it becomes 'guy offers his number to girl and after if she takes it then he has to wait to see if she will call him' ?? Am I loopy or is this how things work in Holland between guys and girls meeting for the first time? I'm aware that Dutch guys are generally reserved and do not often approach girls first; but is this so ingrained that Dutch girls become somewhat offended if they get approached that they field a conversation for a time and then just wave the hand? Is there some sort of subliminal neo-feminism in all Dutch women? My final thought is regarding the 'if they're interested they'll call you.' Is it not that a guy gets a girl's number and calls her and then 'if they're interested, they'll call you BACK' ?? Someone, please enlighten me on Dutch 'courting rituals' and if I am out of line (queue) to approach a Dutch girl at a bar/club. BTW, I am American and 23 y/o.

Every girl is different! You need to stop categorizing girls as if they are all the same. There is no general rule as to how "Dutch Girls" behave... or how "American Girls" behave... Some girls go to a bar to meet guys and give out their number. Some girls would prefer to get the guy's number so that she has control over the next move. Some girls just don't like being approached by random guys at the bar and exchange their number. Next time, when you are talking to a girl and if you really like her and genuinely want to see her again, and she seems interested in you, ask her if she would like to meet up for a drink sometime (or something similar)... if she says yes, then ask to exchange numbers (you get hers, she gets yours), then if you are both interested, it might work out... if she doesn't go along with it, then move on, it's not a big deal!

There is no "double tax" per se. What happens is that if you work in NY you are taxed by NY and NJ but when you complete your taxes at year end, you get an allowance for your NY taxes on your NJ taxes. You have to complete tax returns for both NY and NJ. The same thing happens if you live in NY and work in NJ.

And then you'll pay the Holland Tunnel toll going home. In the simplest terms, you'll pay the higher tax of the two states. You'll file a non-resident tax return with the state where you work. Any tax that you pay to the state where you work will be used as a credit to the state where you live. Example: You work in NY but live in NJ. The tax you owe NY is $1000 and the tax you owe NJ is $700. When you file your NJ return, you won't owe them any money because what you paid NY more than covers it. OK, now say you owe NY $700 and NJ $1000. When you file your NJ return, you will only owe them $300 since you get a $700 against the $1000. Nothing with New York is simple. However, New Jersey has an agreement with Pennsylvania where if you live in one state and work in the other, you owe have to file with the state where you live.

Why is Saudi Arabia not targeted by USA

Why is Saudi Arabia not targeted by USA........?
9/11 Attackers were mostly Saudis and one Lebanese Financiers and supporters are mostly Wahhabi, Saudis, Ben Laden Saudi, But yet Saudi Arabia is sparred and not questioned? Backers and Fighters in Yemen, Iraq and Algeria are mostly Saudi nationals and Saudi funded ( GIA Algeria ) Why then, Iraq got whacked ? Is it Oil? Because I am trying to understand why Saudis are let go Iraqis are not? Saudi talks alot but I have never head a Skirmish between Saudi and Israeli army, never heard Bin Laden and Wahhabi s threatening Zionist? Why many Palestinians are living in a mess in Lebanon ( a small country that kind enough to take care but obviously Lebanon need alot of help ) and why Saudi Arabia is not taking this Palestinians? Is Saudi untouchable or there is more to all this? Palestinians and Lebanese are one of the most brightest people in the Arab world, are there a threat to Saudi? The only help I saw from Saudi are their "touristic" behavior ( spending and *** ) in Lebanon. Saudi Arabia is the Gangster of the Arab world, I am "Impressed" they can do whatever they want, wow. They bad mouth the Shiattes but its the Shiaa that has balls to face IDF, they manipulated the Christians by making them sign the TAEF in Lebanon Mecca and Medina should just be an autonomous area run by OIC not the Saudi people. Strangely, UAE with their tons of hoes and prostitutes and clubs were sparred by Islamic Fundamentals, they were never threatened, but yet Bombs will hit Beirut areas, Iraq , Algeria and Egypt . Iraqi refuge slaved in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, Saudi came to have 13 year olds, its obvious thanks to Youtube and other Levantine Arabs who has seen these sex hungry tourist from the Gulf taking yo young ara flesh, In Yemen they married 16 year old virgins and after 4 months drop this poor Yemeni wife back to Yemeni desert borders! One Saudi was chased and killed by one Yemeni Bedoin ( deserved it ) Please pardon my English, its my 4th language. Not as smart as most of you -Bsc in Astrophysics and doing graduate Astrophysics studies and creative work every night, and alot of days...but I have to get this out my chest. I was born in another 1st world ( not US ) and an Arab. I lived in Lebanon for awhile for work, Algeria, Holland, Yemen, Australia and New York .Been to Haifa, Tel Aviv, West Bank, Jerusalem,4 weeks. Additional Details http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;… I posted this on Politics too :) Tia sorry it was not supposed to be in Lebanon section and yes it was a Q only the bright can answer not for little Mansaf eaters, walk. Thanks Nazira and Aussie thanks mate! Everyone is dumping their problems in Lebnen, I don't understand . Palestinians and Lebanese are one of the brightest people in the Arab world. I did Astrophsyics BSc and Graduate studies and my Prof was a Palestinian/Leb man who asked this Q many times. Tristan , Thanks man

I will be honest I didnt read your entire question but I got to the "is it oil" bit and decided it was time to write my answer. When on this topic all my teachers say americans are money hungry (and i dont mean this to offend anyone living in america) and that the only reason they attacked iraq wasnt for the good of the iraqi's and to bring aid to the middle east but to instead make profit from oil etc. wallah i cant stand them

Imma give you my point of view ..a 17 year old's point of view who has had enough of the Arab naïveté.. In Ksa there is King Fahd University which is run by mostly Americans. Life on campus is very different.. Girls and guys can normally socialize.. Girls don't have to wear hijab ....As you see it's total freedom in the heart of saudi! Now, they are funding a nuclear program at the university.. Saudis lacking any potential will definitely ask Americans for help who will develop the nukes and hence enforce themselves in saudi arabia .. That's the thing .. we are always economically dependant and we always seek USA for help in science .. We never make our own technology.. Sadly khaliji men just spend their money on prostitutes in Lebanon.. Instead of investing money in people's asses you can do something useful with it ! What I said is mostly based on common sense.. idk if any of that will happen but my cousin went to K.F.university and saw what's going on there.. They are even building two churches there! Americans are going to spread in the KSA before we know it

America needs Saudia Arabia! Saudi Arabia is strong, not only with oil but with other things too. So the U.S needs Saudi and they have an high agreement too. Same with U.A.E. And I hate the U.A.E and S.A government too. And what shocked me is all the surrounding countries next to Palestine and Lebanon aren't caring about them!
