Is it normal to reject cashier's phone number

I was traveling with my family and so we stopped at a fast food restaurant for dinner. I guess the cashier found me to be attractive because he wrote his name and phone number on a napkin on the tray with my food. Okay, I thought it was funny at first but then I told my family and they made a huge deal out of it (at this point, they're ecstatic if a guy even looks in my direction). Anyway, every time I looked up while we were eating, the cashier was staring at me. A little bit later my anxiety kicked in and I became extremely irritable and felt compelled to leave as soon as possible. So I was rushing my family, which made them annoyed. When I was done, I asked for my dad's car keys so I could just sit in the car and wait for them to finish, I was feeling extremely uncomfortable. I don't understand why this happened? I only said two words to the guy. I didn't mean to send out any false signals. He could be in high school for all I know (I'm 20 by the way). I almost told the other cashiers while he was on break but I didn't want to cause a scene, or for him to get fired. Though I believe that what he did was inappropriate and unprofessional. I threw away the number by the way. I know this makes me look cruel and cold, but I've had very bad experiences with dating and I just don't want to take anymore chances.

    Don't feel bad for throwing his number away. You weren't interested, there's nothing wrong with that and it's not cold...it's just reality. Good for you for not being guilted into talking to the guy, now work on not feeling bad for doing what you feel is right for you.

    No big deal..You're free to accept or turn down whatever you want. Newer server woman at sports bar I go to has taken quite the interest in me, but..I don't feel the same way. She's not my type, and sometimes..I just find her annoying. Stood there a few weeks ago, talking to/at me, as I was trying to eat a chicken sandwich. I found that rude enough, but later, with my phone on the bar, she stopped by, picked it up, and put her number in my contacts. It's already gone and out.

    I think he was being quite unprofessional and inappropriate to say the least. It's not even just that he gave you his number without your asking, because honestly I think the big problem here was that he was staring at you while you were eating. I don't see your behavior as cold or cruel in the very least. You are not obligated to that stupid, little creep in least. There's nothing wrong with not being interested in someone. I support you completely!

    It's normal to reject the number, but not normal to be anxious to that extreme over it. Maybe talk to a doctor if you suffer from anxiety frequently.

    Go back and see the cashier and tell him you lost his number and that you want to suck him off.
