To think he's going on a date?

I've been on a date with someone from work, but he's gone a bit funny and I haven't bothered asking for another one, if he wants to he will.

He's someone who doesn't like people talking during films (which is understandable) so usually goes alone.

I invited him to my belated birthday party tomorrow, admittedly I invited him with late notice but he's said he's 'catching up with a friend from an old job.'

I casually asked where they were going and he said 'the cinema'.

Do men go to the cinema in pairs?
I just have this feeling he's trying to date this 'friend'. It could well be innocent or a male but I'm not convinced.

Anyway I'm better just binning him off. I know he's entitled to do what he pleases, it just hurts a bit.

I'm probably being paranoid but I've managed to convince myself it's a date. This 'friend' from his last job.
I want to find out without making it obvious. I know I'm being ridiculous but this is how I feel.

And yes there's nothing to bin off as such, more just stop communicating with him.

What if it is a date? it seems your colleague does not want to pursue a relationship with you. It doesn’t seem healthy to be focused on something that was a non starter.
