I would guess people who use lines like that do it because it is so
hard to turn down a non-specific question like that without obviously
and blatantly rejecting them. Have you tried "No, I'm very busy but
why don't you call me in 6 months"?

Out on a date, huh? Next thing you know, you'll be going steady...
