    Two nights ago I met this really nice girl down in Philadelphia, chatted with her, and got her number (or I thought I did). I should have had her put the number in or given her my number or texted right away to make sure the number was correct but I didn't. So last night I sent her a text so she would know it was me that was calling her and asked her if it was a good time to talk. About 1 am they texted back that I have the wrong number and they don't know anyone by that name. It's possible she gave me a fake number but I kind of doubt it cause 609 is a real New Jersey area code and 651 is a real exchange within that code. So I suspect I got one of the last 4 digits wrong or transposed some numbers. So here's what I know. She has a VERY unusual first name which I know the spelling of cause I asked her, I know her age, and a bunch of miscellaneous details which probably aren't useful for finding her. But I don't know her last name. I tried: 1) Searching her first name on Facebook and Google with no luck. 2) I would use the internet white pages but they require a last name which I don't know. Anyone know a way to search by first name? 3) Tonight I'm thinking I'm going to try switching some of the numbers and see if I reach her. Apparently 5s and 9s are the most commonly confused digits and she has lots of them in her number. So this is a smart group anyone have any other ideas besides the ones I just listed in case the last one doesn't work? Thanks, Mike Additional Details: I met her at a one time event so going back there won't help and we didn't have name tags. I know she works in a boutique but I have no idea which one. Thanks everyone for your replies

    Usually when girls give out fake numbers they only change the last 1 or 2 digits. They almost always use their real area code and exchange.

          Do you remember through the drunken haze anything else? Could you go back to the same bar [every night for a year]?

            Not a group of professional stalkers. Why don't you hire a cheap PI if you're so desperate? Also, have you considered the possibility that all the details she gave you are total BS?

                              Two nights ago I met this really nice girl down in Philadelphia, chatted with her, and got her number (or I thought I did). I should have had her put the number in or given her my number or texted right away to make sure the number was correct but I didn't. So last night I sent her a text so she would know it was me that was calling her and asked her if it was a good time to talk. About 1 am they texted back that I have the wrong number and they don't know anyone by that name. It's possible she gave me a fake number but I kind of doubt it cause 609 is a real New Jersey area code and 651 is a real exchange within that code. So I suspect I got one of the last 4 digits wrong or transposed some numbers. So here's what I know. She has a VERY unusual first name which I know the spelling of cause I asked her, I know her age, and a bunch of miscellaneous details which probably aren't useful for finding her. But I don't know her last name. I tried: 1) Searching her first name on Facebook and Google with no luck. 2) I would use the internet white pages but they require a last name which I don't know. Anyone know a way to search by first name? 3) Tonight I'm thinking I'm going to try switching some of the numbers and see if I reach her. Apparently 5s and 9s are the most commonly confused digits and she has lots of them in her number. So this is a smart group anyone have any other ideas besides the ones I just listed in case the last one doesn't work? Thanks, Mike Additional Details: I met her at a one time event so going back there won't help and we didn't have name tags. I know she works in a boutique but I have no idea which one. Thanks everyone for your replies

For the most part we were talking about trivial stuff like what movies we like as well as stuff like what profession she wanted to get into. And believe it or not she actually seemed interested in our profession and asked me a fair number of questions about it. Thanks everyone for your replies

                                      Two nights ago I met this really nice girl down in Philadelphia, chatted with her, and got her number (or I thought I did). I should have had her put the number in or given her my number or texted right away to make sure the number was correct but I didn't. So last night I sent her a text so she would know it was me that was calling her and asked her if it was a good time to talk. About 1 am they texted back that I have the wrong number and they don't know anyone by that name. It's possible she gave me a fake number but I kind of doubt it cause 609 is a real New Jersey area code and 651 is a real exchange within that code. So I suspect I got one of the last 4 digits wrong or transposed some numbers. So here's what I know. She has a VERY unusual first name which I know the spelling of cause I asked her, I know her age, and a bunch of miscellaneous details which probably aren't useful for finding her. But I don't know her last name. I tried: 1) Searching her first name on Facebook and Google with no luck. 2) I would use the internet white pages but they require a last name which I don't know. Anyone know a way to search by first name? 3) Tonight I'm thinking I'm going to try switching some of the numbers and see if I reach her. Apparently 5s and 9s are the most commonly confused digits and she has lots of them in her number. So this is a smart group anyone have any other ideas besides the ones I just listed in case the last one doesn't work? Thanks, Mike Additional Details: I met her at a one time event so going back there won't help and we didn't have name tags. I know she works in a boutique but I have no idea which one. Thanks everyone for your replies

                                      Since you are certain of the area code and exchange, there are only 10,000 possible numbers (9,999 since you already eliminated one), start dialing. ;P

                                        Very funny. Actually I'm thinking of swapping the 5s and 9s and if that doesn't work changing the order of the numbers. And if that doesn't work I think I'm out of ideas.

                                          Forget her and find another. And verify next time before leaving.
