Not necessarily asked out but one girl gave me her phone number in a busy mall on a paper when I used to have my pixie cut. I did appreciate it though, she was right I looked pretty gay

You're not aware what a shopping mall is?

What is it? Something Londoners should know about?

There's shopping malls all around the country.

I've lived here all my life. I'm just not one of those Redditors who pretends not to understand certain commonly used words.

I'd check Rule 1 of this sub if I were you.

There's no shopping malls in this country. Plenty of shopping centres though

Love it when Redditors pretend that Brits don't use widely used words. Guess there's no apartments in this country either.

Yeah, quite a few times. Obviously not by random strangers. But at house parties, birthday drinks and so on I've got chatting to a woman and she's asked for my number several times. And I've done the same. Have lived elsewhere in the UK and didn't find London particularly different in that regard.

Twice by Russians thinking I am also Russian (I am not). I was chased down by one in London Bridge station, but actually thought I was about to be attacked and ran into the Rituals shop, he then spoke to me in Russian and asked me for a coffee, which I politely declined. The Rituals staff gave me a tea as I was a bit shaken by the whole thing.

Quite a lot, but I am 6'8 so it is what it is

Really? Damn, gender gap is real, tall girls barely get asked out at all.

Well it's the opposite, my short mates are much better looking than me and just more successful, but they always get rejected. Honestly I feel bad

Well if they're more successful than you, you may as well play the best cards you've got in your hand

No, though if I ever was i'd assume it was some kind of prank, such is my self-esteem these days...

Been asked out more on holiday.

Happens more in London than in smaller towns, but mostly from guys that are from abroad. So this fits!

Yes. On the tube by a very nice Chinese lady. I am married so she was a few years too late. But it does happen.
