I have been dating a guy for three months. We both came out of crappy relationships 6+ months ago. We have not talked about any relationship. We go on dates once a week at least if not twice. He said he was looking for “the one” when we started dating. It’s been three months, and I decided to ask him if he wanted to be my date for a work event. He simply said “no thanks.” What does this even mean? Is it just a no? No I don’t want to go with you because I don’t see us dating? I don’t want to meet your coworkers? How should I take this? And what should I even respond?

It means he doesn’t want to be your date and probably doesn’t want to commit and just wants to be FWB
I think it’s time you have the good old fashioned “what are we” talk. No one can tell you but him
You’re going to have to ask him these questions.
Kind of weird he didn’t elaborate?
I am probably on the spectrum and I’d give this answer to a partner because: work events suck, people stress the sh*t out of me and i do not like crowds of people that may judge me AND my date. Going to a concert full of strangers is ok, but an event with people that know you is a lot of pressure to people like me.
No is a full sentence.
But he is the only one who can answer your questions
These are questions you need to ask him.
