My ex is a great guy. Ive known him for 4 years now and we have maintained a "friendship only" for the last year.
We broke up because we were at different stages but mainly because I couldn't handle a long distance RS. Things are changing now and I think we might be on the same page again. He asked me out to a movie this past Saturday night and it seemed like a date based on him being dressed up and wearing cologne, paying, etc.
How can I find out in a casual conversation without scaring away his friendship? If we are on the page I would want to be with him for many, many reasons. If not, I still want to continue our friendship. I don't want to ruin things by bringing this up. Is there a way to ask him what his general RS goals are, if any?

Hi gosh you look great! You too! I'm so glad we could get together, so tell me everything, catch me up, forinstance, are you dating anyone?(smile warmly, friendly)

I don't want to be mean, but I do these things if I ask my mother out to dinner, as well. I know what Freud says and all, but I really am not dating my mother.
Oh crap, I'm becoming Norman Bates. I swear my mother is still alive.
Thanks everyone, I DO like the advice to let it play out if it's going to happen. I'm just afraid that he will think I don't want to get back together. I did the breaking up, wouldn't I have to bring it up? Im all for letting the man take the lead, but this is a special circumstance where I just want to KNOW if it's on his mind.
You'll have to excuse him. Sometimes he thinks he knows what he's talking about.
You had a thread a while back about this guy, but I don't recall you saying that you only wanted to stay friends - just that you were good friends with the ex. I think that's what 1983 is talking about.

I asked if men could be friends and later in the thread explained that my ex had asked me out on what felt like a date and I was wondering if he wants to get back together. Hence this new thread...

Something smells fishy...
