Replies Chino Posted at 4:04 pm on Sep. 8, 2008 Come on girls, does it need to officially be called date or not? Like, you are with the guy and go "Ok, wait, before we take off...is this officially a date or not?" I mean, date or not, why would it matter?  You are just going out to have a good time and if things NATURALLY occur, so what?  Call it whatever you want, a relationship might come out of it and if not, you will have a friend you know you can have fun with and score a free movie, free meal, gifts, etc.   princess timz Posted at 10:59 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 He's just being friendly to the new person, it could be a date you'll find that out when you get there. If he wants to go out with you just say yeah or no depending on how you feel about him. jenjenpoo Posted at 10:59 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 Quote: from Torpid Kitten at 10:57 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 Could go either way really. Just ride it out. If he tries to make a move on you just make it clear that you went into this with the intent of making friends, not boyfriends. Ok thanks i dont want to offend him by rejecting him if he thinks its a date and i dont want to embarrass us both by saying it clear as if i was assuming that its a date, if it isnt. tonka Posted at 10:58 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 have no expectations. maybe hes just being nice. maybe he wants it to be a date. but since you dont know, just take it as it comes. if you end up liking him, then good for you. if not, you can just be friends. VIPMeezy Posted at 10:57 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 It's never a date, 'til they say it's a date. Ruben Posted at 10:57 pm on Sep. 7, 2008 u moved to california?
