iMessage won't let me use my phone number

The issue I am dealing with is that iMessage won't let me select my phone number, so I can be able to use it instead of my email address. It shows it already selected (but gay) after i enter my Apple ID in but afterwards it doesn't show it at all, only my Apple ID.

iPhone 4, iOS 6

I'm having the same problem. My iMessages won't work and my number is grey so I can't select it. How do I fix it so iMessage works?
