Search Results: spark a conversation

I asked this shy guy who I've been volunteering with to have some lunch with me, and we had so much fun! He's been eyeing me since October, but he has always been super quiet around me so we've never really had a conversation before the lunch. Even the waitresses were looking at us and I think they saw the sparks too ;) He gave me a small gift which was something I really liked, and asked me how in my opinion he should cut his hair, and few days later I found out that he cut his hair exactly the way I said would suit him.

Then a week after the lunch, last Thursday, I called him up and asked him to go for a walk with me, and he smiled and said "possibly", and we set up a time and place right there on the phone. He also invited me to an event related to a field we're both very interested in and passionate about. However, this morning he called me to cancel the evening walk which was supposed to be tonight, saying that he's sorry and unfortunately very busy this week. He's very active at school and student organizations and just started his own company. I asked him, whether he'd like to reschedule, and he said "sure, as soon as I'm not as busy". The weird thing is, that he brought up the event again, and re-invited me to come see it tomorrow.

Should I go to the event? Should I just forget about him?
