Junie408 Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 When a very close guy friend continually insists on going to dinner and paying for it, is he technically taking me on dates? I've known this guy for 7 years and he's the loner type; yet in the last two months he wants to hang out, eat dinner, or grab coffee at least every other day. We also eat lunch together on campus. But yeah the dinner thing...what's up with that??
Sckott Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 An ex girlfriend took me out to some really nice Sushi 4 times in a row. She collectively spent $150 on me. You would think she was dating me, but she's happilly married. I would say this seems like a date, but it could be some very needed friendly company. He likes you. That is definate. The rest is not really known. Ask.
April22 Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 No, I don't consider that because he is paying, that it is a date. I go out all of the time with close guy friends. Sometimes they pay, sometimes I do, most of the time we split it. We pay for eachother to return a favor or even just because you mean a lot to them and they are happy to do it for for a good friend. What makes it a date is if there any connections made. Does he try to get close to you? Does he want to hold your hand? Those things would make it in my opionion a date. If the end of the night ~*~* kisses you and it is magic ~*~* ... Then you know it was a date. then you know forsure that was your first date kiss with this guy. And hopefully many many more to come Let us know how it goes girley! I'm excited to findout if it tuned into a date or not and what you did and how it went. Have so much fun!!! Love yas, April
lost_in_chgo Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 gold digger rationalizations aside.... yes it's a date, or at least he wants it to be. If you are uncomfortable with it, tell him you don't want him to pay. If you like the guy, let him know you like him and take it from there.
Cecelius Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 He's a man willing to spend money and time on dinner and you're a girl. Just as with all the posts about girlfriends having dinner with a "friend", it's a date and it is ALWAYS a date.
