Advice when asking someone out
There is a person I keep running into. Whenever outside during random times we'll always see each other and say hi or have a quick word. Over the year, we would lightly flirt via text and once suggested we grab a cup of coffee. Fast forward to a week ago, when I see the person and asked in person if they will like to go grab a cup of coffee with me at that moment. During this time, I lost my aunt and figured life was too short and took a leap of faith to see where things will go with this person. - the person looked surprised and awkward, then stated they needed to go home because they didn't have their wallet, until I suggested we make it another time. The person then stated to let them know when I'm free. Should I move on ? Apologize for the awkward moment created or keep it casual? (I don't know much about dating, any advice is welcomed)
@EmpatheticRabbit I would move on since maybe they aren't interested, amazon I think has books on dating so does google psychology today has really good articles on various topics so does wiki how good luck hope you find someone soon.
@EmpatheticRabbit It sounds like you caught them off-guard and were asking for something a bit last minute. What happened when you asked over text? Did you suggest a specific day and place to go? Personally, since they did say to let them know when you're free, you could try to suggest a time; try to ask a week in advance or so to let the person check their schedule. But if they stop responding or cancel they may not be interested unfortunately.
