Does it sound like he likes me? Sorry if this sounds stupid?
So a guy at work asked me to lunch and I said yes. The day we were supposed to go, he had a meeting that cut into lunch time and was a no-show. He later found me and apologized and told me about the meeting, and I have no issue with this. We all have busy days at work.
He told me we'll play it by ear next time. Is that rescheduling with me? Or is that a way to let me down easy?
Then, he was going to a store after this conversation and asked me if I needed anything.
A guy who works with you wouldn't buy you anything just because, right?
I can't tell if this is just him being nice at work or not. You don't go out to lunch with co-workers (one on one) if you don't like them, right?

Men at times are hard to figure out. The key question is whether or not he's a strong guy.
May I suggest that the first question to ask yourself when considering whether or not to date someone is, “Is this person a strong person?” If they’re not, no matter how much you like them, how much they like you, or how “cute” or “hot” they are, - please don’t date them. A strong person has good character (honesty, integrity, trustworthiness), displays a positive attitude (cheerful, caring, friendly, forgiving, helpful, and respectful), fulfills their responsibilities (for handling pains in a positive way, for always trying to make a good choice, for taking care of themselves, for serving others), gives their best effort, and demonstrates self-control (of their body, anger, tongue and money). A strong person isn't overly concerned with what weak mean people say, do, or think.
My suggestion is that you put in the effort necessary to become a strong person (if you’re not already), forget about this guy unless he’s a strong person, and eventually look for this type of guy (otherwise you are setting yourself up for a broken heart). Unfortunately this type of man is difficult to find – but save yourself the heartache and don’t settle for less.
(Please remember that you eventually want a 50 or 60 year marriage - not a 5 or 10 year marriage.)
Hope this helps!
PS The best way to get to know a strong man without dating is to participate in the activities of a community service or a school organization.
