I asked out the guy I like yesterday. Here are the details. My friend is in a play next week, so I figured I'd ask him to go to it with me. I was REALLY nervous when I asked him, so all I said at first was, "Do you want to go to a play?" He looked at me strangely, so I elaborated like I would have done in my first breath if it had been deep enough. He asked for the day and time so I told him Thursday at 7:30, and then he said he had work then. What he said exactly was, "I have work Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays." Then he paused and asked what the play was, but when I told him Guys and Dolls he smiled and was like, "Uh, no, sorry." (He's a theater person, by the way. I assume he saw it and didn't like it or heard not-so-great things about it)
The reason I gave these details was so YOU could interpret and analyze them objectively. Attempt to delve into his mind, distant in time and space though it may be, and tell me WHAT WENT ON HERE? All psycology majors welcome!

Couple possibilities. He wasn't really interested in you but was interested in the possibility of the play. The questions about the play suggest that, his telling you about his work schedule only put that as a reason for saying "no". Had he liked you he would have responded with an opening, such as asking if you would like to get a coffee or something on Mon or Wed. OR, perhaps he is feeling embarrassed and really wanted to spend time with you but didn't know how to open the subject. Either way, it's probably worth while to try another approach...ask if he would be interested in seeing another play with you cause you know he's interested in plays and so are you. Or, just ask him out for coffee on one of his free nights...he did tell you when he would be free. Good luck.

1. Reality bites. Maybe he's just not into you. I didn't mean this to be too harsh but seriously, don't waste your time chasing a guy who does not care about you. He's not worth it.
2. Maybe he just did not like the play. How about suggesting him to watch another play? Ask him his favorite play. Then find out when that play is scheduled to be played in theatre.
3. Instead of going to a play, how about asking him to go to a movie?
I hope things work out for you. Send you best wishes.

If he was into you too, he would have offered to get together another time. He would have let you know when he wasn't working. You may want to ask him out for a day he isn't working. And if he says no again, then it's time to move on. Hope it works out : )

Well he said he has to work that night so....
Maybe his "Uh, no, sorry" meant that He'd liked to have gone, but unfortunately he has to work.
You really shouldn't assume anything, ask him out some other time that isn't on a night you know he works. Give it a try, what can you lose?

Sorry, sweety. But he's not interested in you.
