"We should hang out," but he has a girlfriend.

Rappy-Amore
I have a friend that always wants to hang out one on one, we usually do dinner and a movie (he picks dinner, I pick the movie). The last time we were out he did say he wanted to do something else to get me out of my shell.

He suggested hiking and I was down with that, but the plans were put on hold because I thought I might be moving and told him. He seemed pretty bummed out and as I started looking for apartments in another town he stopped talking to me altogether.

Things ended up working out so I could stay where I am, but he just got a girlfriend so I was trying to keep my distance... And then I accidentally dialed his number on my new phone, argh. It only rang for a couple seconds so I ended the call, but he called back a minute later (literally) and we ended up talking. He asked when I was moving and I told him I would be around for a long time. The next thing he said was "Really? We should hang out." Double argh.

I've never figured out what hanging out is to him. I think it's casual... maybe. We have tension between us, and it's been there for a long time.

And since I don't know what's up with this hanging out deal, should I really be doing it when he has a girlfriend? I don't want to disrespect her, and I definitely don't want to be known as the girl who won't leave a taken guy alone! :/
