theres this guy that works a few stores down from me and hes pretty sweet and also a cutie hes 30 and im 20 and i had no idea he was into me so when he asked me out to dinner i kinda was shocked and asked him, "me? you want to take me out to dinner? why?" and i think i messed everything up because he took that as a no and turned pink! but i didnt mean that at all i was just shocked so how do i bring it up to let him know that i want to go out sometime? i still flirt and smile at him but im sure he wont ask again so i think its up to me to say something but im so shy to even say, "hey remember when u asked me out to dinner well i want to go so what time u gonna pick me up?" haha i dont even know if he still would want to what does everyone think? what should i do?

You may have come off a little snobby the first time he asked you out.
He may not be interested anymore.
If you're interested in going out with him, you should just ask him casually if that offer for dinner is still open.
If he says "Yes!" then don't bring the misunderstanding up.
If he makes excuses to not do dinner, take the hint and leave.

Isn't love so simple and yet so complicated.
One perfectly normal reaction and because he spent so long preparing to ask you all the if's and but's in his head he got the completely wrong end of the stick.
Yeah your gonna have to tell him your reaction was out of shock and you really want to go out with him to dinner.
Go and see him girl if you like him put a smile on both your days and good luck.

Yes, you blew it. Guys are very insecure and when you said what you did you planted a doubt! Now you have to take the doubt away. Buy two tickets to his favorite sport, Ice Hockey, Football, Baseball, whatever is in season. Ask him if he know anything about the sport....Tell him you got tickets as a bonus from work and need a "MAN" to take you to the game because you know so little about it. Maybe dinner after the game?

Depends on how long it's been since then. If it was recent, go up to him and apologize for your reaction, and say you had no idea that he was interested, but that you have been, and that you were so suprised that you didn't know how to respond. And that you'd love to go out to dinner with him, just say when.
It may not work, but worth a try! This happened to me twice over the last few years, but I didn't waited too long to respond (out of embarrassment), and by then it was too late.

Okay. I think that you should go up to him and say, you know casually, wanna go somewhere, you know, out to dinner? Oh and to the other person who answered to this, what does money making things have to do with her question? yeah...
Anyway, I would start a conversation with him, and as you two get more friendlier, he'll ask you again, and THEN you could say what you want to in the EXACT form you mean.

The next move is yours, don't be shy or you will always wonder about him, Be honest just say hey I was surprised you asked me out because I was thinking the same thing,- what time are you going to pick me up? Sounds like you embarrassed him

You shouldn't bring up the time he asked you out. Pretend like it never happend, if you bring it up it might embarass him more. I think you should talk to him, and just tell him that you would like to get to know more about him and if he wants to go out sometime. It's as simple as that. I'm almost positive he'll say yes, although he might make a joke out of it and copy what you said to him when he asked you out lol.

Well like you say... you're the one who shut him down granted you did it by accident. So, now it is up to you to fix it. So, just walk up to him and say: "Is that offer for dinner still open?" And let it go from there... you know he is into you already because he asked. So, what do you have to lose?

Do not apologize. This was a misunderstanding. Go to him and say, "How about that dinner?" What kind of food do you like? If he says something that you hate, then offer an alternative.
He will be flattered to be asked out by a lovely girl who caught his eye all ready.Good luck.

well the best thing i could tell ya to do is that if you are interested in the guy then YOU will have to make the next move. just ask him if he's still interested in dinner. i used to be shy myself.
