The other day I got unmatched by a girl on a dating app because she wanted my WhatsApp and not a phone number. We literally had already agreed to go on a first date and then she’s like “I don’t use my phone much so you need to use WhatsApp” and I’m like “I don’t have WhatsApp, here’s my cell number: XXX-XXX-XXXX” and then she disappeared from my matches on Hinge lol
She has no sim card and exclusively uses whatsapp for calling.
She doesn’t want you to know her number unless she gets to know you.
She’s lying or scamming.
I’m leaning towards number 2 if you’re outside the US, because I imagine I’d rather set up a new profile than change my phone number. If you’re inside the US, I’d bet it’s number 3. Whatsapp doesn’t seem to be as popular in the US.

A few possible guesses.

You get the phone number through WA though
