I think it's probably a date. I don't think people really have "dates" nowadays. People do this "safer", "half-way between date and hangout" stuff, so there's less pressure and it's less awkward if you decide to just be friends. Which is cool, I guess. It's all good. Just see what happens.

I guess she will - its just you two and you are paying == but ts good to take things slow and just see it goes.

If you do want to offer another time then kinda think you should be upfront - or you maybe end up friend zoned and wanting more . Honesty the best way.

If I was her, I would only think it was a hangout because you said "hangout". I would just take things slow and sort of scan things out. If it seems like she is having a good time, laughing with you, smiling a lot, and you two are enjoying each others company, then ask her out for an official date at a later time good luck!

I'd say its a date. But it doesn't matter so much what you call it, its how you two react around each other when you get there.

did the original text get deleted or something? haha what did I miss?
