If all she wanted to do was be my friend.. she should have just easily told me NO to the date.. or she could have just said flat out that she had a bf...
Whelp, gonna have to jump in here again. From the woman's point of view - I do have lunch with MALE FRIENDS from time to time. AS FRIENDS. I don't look at them as dates at all, just lunch with a friend, and I go to that lunch with the intent of paying for my meal, same as I would with a female friend. Given that I look at it as lunch with a friend, I don't feel the need to chime in with the fact that I am involved with someone prior to lunch, if that is the case at that particular point in time. With that being said, if during the course of lunch, I am asked on a date, I would then at that point tell them there was someone in my life.
