Dating : Going on a possible first date tonight
So, I’ve known this guy for awhile and we haven’t really been more than okay friends, we aren’t very emotionally close but we spent a lot of time together in school. Recently we graduated and I thought that would be the last time I saw him, but within the first two days of summer he mentioned three times that we should keep in touch.
It seemed a little odd because I hadn’t expected him to want to keep in touch or hangout over the summer, but he wants to so I asked him to go see a movie with me tonight. My friends keep saying it’s a date, based on how eager he was to meet up and the fact that we’re hanging out for the first time outside of school alone.
If it was a date, I would go along with it. If it wasn’t, I would be fine with that too. I haven’t asked and don’t plan on doing that, because we already have plans to hangout after tonight and it would be awkward if I asked and he thought of me as just a friend.
I’m dressing nicer than usual but casual. Not sure what he’ll be wearing. Is there any way to tell if he thinks of tonight as a date or not?
Ya, simple just ask him. Why go into it unknowing that helps you maintain and keep the right vibe with him for the night. No harm in asking, I have with male friends just to make sure we are all on the same page. Especially since you are okay with both scenarios.
