So about a month ago one of my friends invited me to the movies. And when i showed up he had a guy there i have never met. Anyways after the movie we went out to eat and it was pretty normal conversation nothing to fancy but i did get along with his friend. So the next day i added him on facebook, just because. So today i asked the guy if i he wanted to goto a car show in 2 weeks. I was expecting him to make up an excuse because he doesnt know me that well. But suprisingly he was like, yea im down man! So now im super nervous because this will be the second time meeting him! And the drive to the car show is 2 hours, and i dont want it to be akward! What should i do? Or what to expect?
Were both the same age (19 & male) and work for the same company, will things just flow into place

Just start the conversation slowly, talking about the situation (the car show, in your case). Hopefully things should go right, and a bigger friendship should grow. But talk to him a little, see what you think of him, and you will see if he is only someone who knew or he's a real friend.

well it could be awkward since you don't know each other well, but obviously you have something in common...cars. Talk about that a lot to break the ice and see where it goes from there. I think it will be fine, it's always good to make new friends!

I would start out talking about what you know you both have in common: work. Then from there, you should be able to find out some other things about him that will allow you to take the conversation further. In all honesty, I wouldn't worry too much about it. I think that if you just talk with him like you would any other friend, things will just kind of fall into place as you move through the conversation. Hell, if you need to, you guys can even talk about cars and the cars you're going to go see, as that seems to be a common interest of yours. I wish you the best of luck!

Should have thought that through as in before you asked him to the car show
So maybe you invite someone else along - or suggest he does -
Maybe arrange to meet up once before the car show trip.
Why ask him at all if you expected him to say no - seems odd to me -
or was it a quick facebook thing -

Yea it was kinda a quick Facebook thing. And I'm not sure why I asked. Maybe out of desperation because no one else wanted to go

He seems liek a cool guy all you did was ask and he said yeah no questions lol. I'd say just go with the flow chill out and everything will work out. I'm glad you had the balls to invite him somewhere after meeting him one time. I never strengthen friendships cause...... why the hell do i do that? idk I'm weird but good for you, chill out everythign will work out just fine. Best of luck!!!
