“If”? What kind of question is that? You either want to go out or you don’t.
I think you dodged a bullet there.

It’s just a way of preventing direct rejection. If I ask you out and you say no, you’re rejecting me and I feel bad. If I ask a hypothetical and you say no, you rejected the hypothetical, not me.
It’s stupid, but sometimes that helps people work up the courage.

it’s not stupid, it is a shield for the person, it never hurts to have protection.
