Was this guy asking me out?

[Anonymous]

I’m a bit dense when it comes to guys.

This guy I know was like do you want to go to a concert I have an extra ticket. Surprised I said…with you?

he said yeah. Now I can’t remember exactly what he said but I think he said he had an extra ticket he was looking to give away. I said I’d listen to some of the songs and then let him know next week. He then said yeah and that he was asking everyone he knew. I wondered if he only said that because I didn’t say yes. I was talking about how I went to a concert and knew all the songs but another one I didn’t.

He was talking to some people and then came back to talk to me saying what were you saying about concerts.

he asked what I liked to do in my spare time. I said I liked taking day trips. He said there’s this one trip and showed me a photo and we could go. I said I didn’t know how to swim properly.

I also said I liked plants and he was asking about that and said he had this one plant and he could show me a picture of it the next time.

when I was heading out he said I’ll walk with you that way.

What do you think? I mean I felt he was but since he didn’t come right out and say it I can’t be 100% sure

In a way he was asking you out but not really & in a way he wasn’t asking you out because he was asking everyone he knew because he had an extra ticket.

So he was or wasn’t

Th thing is I think he said that I’m asking everyone because I didn’t really say yes but I’m not sure

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Overall NO he wasn’t asking you out & honestly I think he was just asking you to go to the concert & I’m sure he has asked others as well.

Not for the concert the day trip suggestion

It seems pretty obvious. Even I probably would have picked up on that.

See the thing is what got me confused is he said he was asking everyone for the concert tickets

I don't know if he said that out of embarrassment beceuse I didn’t really say yes or he meant it

I've had something similar happen to me. This girls asked to sit with me because it was really crowded. I said sure because it was one of the busiest days I saw at this place. I just kept listening to my ear buds and finished my meal. As I got up to leave, I noticed her staring at me. I did leave and realized as I was walking home that this girl probably wanted to tallk to me. The worst part is I didn't realize who it was until a year later. I just assumed she was sitting there because there were no seats available elsewhere. Somerimes people will give themselves an easy out if they are afraid of whatever. Clearly this guy is very interested in you, and he is making you a priority.

I do not like him.

What is a way to tell him I do not feel the same way without being rude?

I thought the next week I can just not go and hope he gets the message (he said I could let him know next week about the concert).

Do you think that’s too rude?

[Opinion Owner]

Just tell him you aren't interested in going. If he keeps pestering you, tell him you dont see him that way.

[Asker]

If I don’t go next week will he get the message (he had told me to let him know next week about the concert).

Not really in a mood to confront or talk to him
