I met this guy at a conference (he's in his last yr of law school and i'm in my 1st year of practice) and since we were pretty much the only people under the age of 30 we hung out. I gave him my card and he contacted me to discuss work stuff. Most importantly, he's very VERY attractive. He asked me for coffee earlier today to discuss more work stuff which I think turned into a little innocent flirting. We left our "outing" w/him asking me out for drinks next weekend. And then I stuck my hand out, to which he commented "this isn't awkward or anything" so then I gave him a hug. Not sure if any of that means its a date or he's just being polite & cordial, but I would sure like it to be. Should I send him a little flirty msg to kinda send the indication that i'd like to "not just talk about work"? If so, what should I say?

The coffee was not a date; the drink is going to be. I'd skip the message-- just a simple "confirming that we're meeting at X at Y o'clock-- really looking forward to our get-together" Then when the time comes, just feel your way to other conversational material.

Don't send any dorky (in your mind flirty msgs)... This is NOT A DATE. It's drinks. He may be feeling it out a bit, but he's not at a point of asking you out. Obviously you guys clicked and he was interested in getting to know you in a non-work way... not necessarily to date. This may turn into a friendship.
Slow your roll sweetheart and see where it goes. Btw, no kissing and no sex after these drinks. Have some self respect.

Sounds like the guy is interested in more than work but I think I would wait before sending him a message that you are interested in more.Go out for the drinks to make sure first.

You don't do anything. Don't rush him,let him be the man.Men love the chase. Women love the catch.So if the drink thing is a date.Don't be easy let him chase.If the drink thing turns out to be a work talk. So be it.But I feel it is a date,and he is interested in being more than work associates

My read here is that he wanted to ask you out without really setting himself up for rejection. So he took the easy line.
He asked you out for drinks (which is basically a date), but saved face in case you denied him by saying it was to talk about work.
This is pretty much a date.

You've been asked out. Leave well enough alone.

Be honest with him...you know, tell him "this doesn't have to be only about work you know. I am a human being."
That should work.
