Did he ask me out?

So a little context, I’ve been pretty removed from dating for a few years due to personal reasons. I recently started to put myself back out as I’ve gotten past my previous issues. I’m overthinking things and I’m super rusty at all of this, I wasn’t great at picking up on cues in the past I feel even worse at it now.

There’s a guy in my small town who works at a local business and he bartends sometimes at a bar in town that I go to sometimes. I just met this guy for the first time about two months ago now. He’s always been very friendly with me and kinda awkwardly asks me a lot of questions about myself. I’ve tried to converse with him but i get really nervous and I’m sure it doesn’t come across great.

A few weeks ago i was in at the local business he works at. I managed to go in pretty free of anxiety and ended up chatting a bit with him and his coworker who was there that day too. As I was about to leave he let me know that he was bartending that Friday night and that I should come grab a drink. I ended up having a rough next couple of days but I still went to go have a drink. I brought a friend with me in case they were busy. We ended up staying pretty late and we visited a bit but nothing really came of it. I don’t know if he was nervous but he couldn’t seem to make eye contact with me that night. The next time I saw him he seemed kinda down tbh

I still see him at his other business and we’ve been getting more chatty with each other and are starting to get to know each other better. I’ve been thinking about actually making a move and it’s making me realize that he probably already did and I’m a complete idiot.

Do you guys think he was asking me out when he asked me to come for a drink? Or is this just an overly friendly straight guy? Help lol
