Would you go on this date?

[Sh1795]

I'm in a badminton club for years. I've a large number of acquaintances more than friends there. I know one of the women has liked a man there for a long time but I heard through someone else he has no interest in her. Recently, to my surprise, he has asked me if I'd like to go for a drink sometime. Now, I've never thought of him in this way before, but he's a nice guy and I think I'd like to. However, I'm a bit hesitant for fear of upsetting this woman that likes him and I'd hate for there to be any awkwardness. Should I just say no?

As shes 'someone you know' rather than a friend, I'd go if I wanted to.

Don't set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.

I think you need to imagine this woman isn't around and make your decision on whether you'd like to meet up with him. I'd go and enjoy it for what it is - an evening out.

I've decided to go and am not going to tell anyone until I see if it goes anywhere.

I would go. You might not like him, hopefully you do xxx

It might turn out to be much more than a date. And who says she’s risking her hobby? Go on the date op. If it doesn’t work out then it doesn’t work out.
