I was debating with my friend about these 2 things, so let's see what you guys think.
1. If your friend's bf/gf asks for your number (and you are opposite gender), should you ask your friend permission before giving?
2. If you accidentally offended your bf/gf friend, you prefer the person (regardless of gender) telling you directly or tell your partner behind you and the partner coming to approach you?
Go!
1. There is normally no reason he/she would ask for your number. Since he/she is merely an acquaintance from your friend. I've been out with her friends before, and no matter how attractive they are, I wouldn't ask for their number, nor would they ask for mine. Unless it has been clear from the conversation that, perhaps there is a business opportunity to be had.1.

2. Be direct, I have no issue apologizing if it was unintentional on my part or will at least explain if it wasn't what he/she understood it to be. But if I had intended it to be, then I would reiterate my position again. At the very least say, "I can't help it that you felt offended. But that is my stand/position and I'll make no apologies for it."
