I was asked to hang out once. I did, he just wanted into my pants. He probably wants into your pants. Otherwise he might have said "want to "go out" sometime? Go out meaning date. Hang out, pants time. At least that's my experience. Eitherway, have fun and use a condom.

If the many previous guyspeak posts are to be believed, guys mostly hang out with women they're attracted to (or would not mind drunkenly boning) so then the odds would be he's interested. Am I getting this right? I hope this Jessica85 tells us how this works out because I'd like to know.
I have some guy friends that I treat like sexless wonders (mostly guys in relationships) and other guy friends that I have a ton of sexual tension with. It's just automatic for me. Depending on which group this guy is from, that is usually how I know, although I've gotten myself into some trouble with that. Sometimes the neutered group turns out to be more sexually motivated than I thought...yikes!

Hahaha the neutered group. She said neuter.

But yeah, been there done that. Gotta love sexual attraction when you know it's going both ways. Had that experience with a construction worker who was on the team remodeling the store I worked at. When we saw each other it was like fire shot straight into the loins. Too bad I was taken at the time. He was amazing.

I'd have to agree with Cary here. Sounds a bit like he likes you. Of course, I'm assuming this guy isn't someone you hang out with every day, and that he wants to hang out with you alone. Could be that he wants to test the waters and see if he really likes you/you like him before he tries to ask you out.

I asked my girlfriend to "hang out" a few times before I officially asked her out for exactly that reason. I wanted to make sure she liked me cause I was so afraid of rejection.

Good answer, Cary. I agree. Just ask---that's the best way to find out his intentions, in my mind. Simple communication works very well if you try it. Stop trying to second guess what is going on. Just ask.

Of course, if you are in the fifth grade, you could ask YOUR best friend to ask HIS best friend if he just likes you or if he really "LIKES" you likes you, but I'm assuming you are probably older than the fifth grade and can handle communicating with him directly.

I have to say that from personal experience, I've been fooled with this "hanging out" business too many times!
I thought were just hanging out, as friends.
But everytime, turns out it was an " I want to date you" thing..
So yeah, watch out.

I actually find that guy ALWAYS are physically attracted to you, but are too scared to actually ask you out. If I ask a guy who asks me this "Ya I'm free Saturday, what did you have in mind" he usually bumbles out somehting like. "errrr ummm ya Saturday, that's good... I'll call you". I find that a guy too scared to ask me on a date isn't up to that sort of direct questioning. They have a look on their faces like, "well that wasnt supposed to happen! I was trying to aviod saying that I want to go out with her explicitly and then she made me clarify, ugg". Lol, boys- just ask us to go to coffee sometime. Its easy, and much less low key than a dinner date.
I personally hate mixed signals like asking to hang out if they acutally want to GO out with me. Poor communication skills (even if due to nervousness) is BIG minus points for me. I have little patience for wall-flower men!

I met a guy who asks me to go out a couple of times a week.. just like a month ago. When I'm with him, he'll talk about hanging out every day and then he'll kind of disappear for a couple of days. We're both broke... jobless and relyin on our parents. He's 10 years younger than me and he has lots of friends and I don't cuz i'm new in town. Also I have kids back home.. that might be a put off.. at any rate, this is the first guy who hasn't tried to just have sex with me and even though i wasn't impressed initially with him, this making me wait thing is making me want him like crazy. and that's probably what ur guy is doing. or he has a handful of girls he's trying to date and your the fallback.... so, don't be so available either. ppl want what they cant have.. so, get busy and forget about it. as soon as you put him out of your mind, he'll most likely call. its like a 6th sense

I'm 5'6, petite frame with a sizable rack (reason as to why I'm explaining this is fairly important). With my experience, when a guy would ask me to "hang out" 9 times out of 10 it was to hook up. These tend to be the "want to hang out?" questions that come out of the blue. However, if its somewhat planned in advance, I'd say its hanging as friends first, then if it continues will more than likely lead to dates!.

omigosh, help! the same sort of thing just happened to me, only problem is im 14 and my parents are super strict, so im not allowed to date and i dont even know if they'd let me hang out alone with boys. so i really like this guy, but i dont know how to ask my parents, and i havent even got the chance to ask them yet, because i have this incredibly busy schedule that has got me booked all week and weekend, what do i do?
