How To Know If He Is Asking You Out On A Date Or Wanting To Hang Out As Friends

How do I know if he's asking me out on a date or wanting to hang out as friends?

Well I think initially, when you're out on a date you have a sense that you're both there for the same objective. If you're meeting someone, just at a party, and you guys go out for a drink, you can tell subtle cues of someone flirting with you. Does the guy pay more attention to you? Is the woman sort of twisting her hair and leaning in? And I think those flirtation cues, where you're actually paying a lot more attention to each other, gives that indication, that it's leading in a more romantic direction. I think that when you're with someone and they're talking about, oh they're interested in someone else, or they're looking around at other people, that's a real indication that that's probably going more in the direction of a friendship.
