I need your help as I m not a native speaker of English.
we dated few times, kissed and slept together about 4-5 times then he travels for work. we stayed in touch through MSN. While chatting he mentioned once that he likes to be FRIENDS(I took it that he wants nothin more). 2 months later, he is back. He gets two months off so not working the next two months. He knows I m into sports and go to gym everyday. He calls to tell he got a membership in my gym (not the closest to his place) and that I should call him whenever I go so we could workout together. Then he suggests to play squash: "also we can play squash whenever you have time, so we would do a squash date ..." and asked if I can spot for him! so I said you want me to be your personal trainer?
My Question: does he mean by Squash date a DATE or a time agreed to meet at??? sort of language question here I guess :)
Also would a guy interested in a girl would he want to meet her in the gym where everyone is smelly and stinky?
I ve never been interested in socializing in the gym let alone going there with friends but if this is an excuse to go out with him again then I might consider it(I had stopped contacting him kuz I got some confusing signals and did not need further confusion)

I think it depends on his other behaviors.
It's not a date.
It's sporting lexicon - squash date, tennis date, golf date, etc.
A squash "date" is just a meeting. You can have a squash/tennis/lunch date with someone of the same sex, platonic friend, etc.
But, if you two have slept together, I can see how the lines are a bit blurry. Very confusing!

>that he likes to be FRIENDS
A man would NEVER say this if he was really into you. It doesn't matter what he meant by 'date', he isn't into you.

exactly! I just wonder why he called me 3 times in the past 4 days. It s been a while I ve been ignoring him kuz I could not figure what he really wants and I told him I dont want to be intimate with anyone outside the relationship context.
Anyway more confusion last night when I was online and he messaged me and was so flirty.
he probably thinks he can make me change my mind.

No confusion. It has been 2 months since he had sex and is hoping you will oblige. Sorry to be crude, but I think it is the right answer.
He might say it if he were into sex with her, as you pointed out below.
