What to do?

This is a random first post but have been a lurker for a little while now and am now after some advice.
I am a single 28 year old female who 2 weeks ago met someone. We stayed up talking for hours and hours and when it came to leave we didn't swap numbers as both our phone batteries had died. However I do know that he has an online profile as this was mentioned several times and am considering making contact with him on this. My issue is that I don't want to look like a stalker, any opinions please?
Thanks for reading.

Whatever happened to writing your number on their arm in eyeliner/lipstick/permanent marker?
(FWIW I get the feeling he's not single
) Science adjusts its views based on what's observed.
Faith is the denial of observation, so that belief can be preserved.

When you found out you weren't able to swap numbers (seriously?? Get a pen people) did he mention the profile then? If he'd said something along the lines of "my phone's not working, send me a message on fb" then I'd go for it. If not I'd probably leave it. There are plenty of ways to swap numbers or arrange to meet again without needing a working phone.0

Do it then. But do it in a 'how you doing' style rather than a 'i really love you' style.

Do it!
If you don't contact him you will never know.
He may see it as a bit stalkerish, but I doubt it. I imagine he would be flattered. Also, he may be wanting to contact you but not know how, so may be hoping you think to contact him on his profile!0 -

A friend of mine once carved his number into an orange he got from behind the bar with his key - they are still together [18 years].If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -
Thanks for all the responses. Dont get me wrong, this isn't love however we got on well and would be keen to meet up again. The situation was that we couldn't take numbers although I didn't think of the eyeliner to be honest! I suppose even if I do make a fool of myself it's not the end of the world.0

I can't see any harm in doing that (assuming he's not a nutter, of course). If you just contact him to say hi, he has the choice whether or not to respond - it only becomes stalker-ish if he doesn't reply and you keep pestering him.0

To be honest, what have you got to lose by sending him a simple message? Nothing? Go for it.0
