to anyone until you have known them a little while. 1 work party doesn't count. You have to determine first whether they are stable or not, and sometimes that takes several interactions. Here in Doha I would seriously consider NEVER giving out my number. In a similar vein---- It is always slightly amusing and slightly terrifying to answer the phone, find out the caller has dialed wrong and then try to fend off their advances---from a wrong number!!!! I usually just hang up on them.
