And it's been a few days later they haven't texted you, would you text them instead? Because on Thursday night I met this guy, he was very good looking and I really liked him. But it was me who made the effort introducing myself and who tried to talk to him, which was hard since he hardly talked because he was so quiet and I could tell he was shy, more so when he said I made him nervous. But it was sweet and I could tell he liked me.Anyways, I have his number and he has mine so I don't really know who is supposed to text each other first? Normally you'd expect the guy to which I always do. But it's been two days and my mum bless her gave me advice, saying that there is no shame texting the guy first and that the worse that could happen is he doesn't reply, but then at least i'll have peace of mind instead of wondering what if and second guessing that I did something....What do you guys think? I don't want him to think i'm desperate or needy! Because i'm sure many guys perceive girls who do this are. But then I can see what my mum means and I did like him. I mean why would he take my number and make sure I have his if he didn't want to hear from me again? So what would you girls do? And guys what would you think of a girl who does this?

 I think it would be great. If he's really that shy then he doesn't know what to say or doesn't have the courage to make the first move.
I wouldn't say you're needy because you haven't even contacted him yet. If you have been texting or calling him a few times then maybe you'll scare him off!
You should at least say hi and try to get a response by asking how he's doing. Like you said, if you get a reply then you can follow up with a call get to know him.
If you don't hear anything then at least you tried and obviously it wasn't meant to be so look at it as a win win situation.
