The most probable reason for a guy to ask you about your weekend plans is that he wants to spend the weekend with you. It could be because he likes to hang out with you or because his girlfriend is out of town.

Either way, you can never know what's cooking in a guy's mind. Whether he genuinely likes you or is interested in hooking up, or if it's neither, it is always best to analyze your feelings and see what you want. 

#2 He wants to take you for a staycation 

Perhaps he has an extra traveling ticket. You should talk smart and make him reveal what he has in mind. If it is something exciting, you might want to go for it.

In any case, your answer should not be influenced by the offer alone. You will be experiencing it with the person in question. Unless you feel confident about it, don't commit. It is okay to take your time to figure things out.

#3 He is planning to propose you 

If you have been dating for some time now, he might have some serious plans in his mind. It is possible that he wasn't to go down on his knees and plan the journey with you.

It is important that you be on the same page. If you feel you need more time to think about it, you can make an excuse to buy yourself some time. Whereas, if this is the moment you have been waiting for a long time, make sure that this is the reason he wants you to be free on the weekends.

#4 He is cross-checking his girlfriend's story 

If you are a mutual friend with his girlfriend, he is perhaps trying to cross-check a story she might have fabricated in front of him. It would be better to drop a text to his girlfriend and inform her that her boyfriend wants to know about your whereabouts.

If she gives you an instant reply, you better make an excuse and withdraw yourself from his company. You don't want to be the reason for causing trouble in others' life.

#5 He wants to get laid 

Perhaps he is a playboy who is looking to get laid. When you ignore his question or don't give him a favorable answer, you might find him making the same inquiries as your friends. 

It is better to stay away from such people. They are either toxic, or they lack a conscience. They won't look back or ask you again because they don't care for you. 

In any case, if they do ask you again without asking your friends, you might be tempted to readjust your lenses. But don't haste. Make your decisions after thoughtful deliberations on the subject.

#6 He needs a favor 

Perhaps the guy needs a favor. He would like to have company while he completes an assignment. This will make the task at hand less dull. 

It is a good opportunity to get to know someone if you're mildly interested in them. You would get plenty of time to observe them. Such an opportunity must not go amiss easily if the interest is genuine. 

Many times it happens that you like something about someone, but you fail to vibe along. A weekend together is a great way to find it out.

#7 You're throwing a party 

The guy is asking you because he knows about your weekend plans. He either wants you to invite him to come along, or he wants to see if you would be comfortable sharing the whereabouts.

#8 He wants to see your reaction 

Perhaps the guy wants to confirm if you have a crush on him. It might be a rumor, or he might have felt that way. If you tell him that you're free and you'd like to spend time with him, he will take it that you are comfortable with him.

If you tell him you're busy, he will understand that you are not interested in him. In this case, even if you have plans for the weekend, but you like this guy, you should tell him that you could hang out next weekend. By doing this, he would understand that you are not dismissing his suggestion and won't be disheartened.

#10 He will be alone at home

While it could mean getting cozy with one another, it doesn't have to be so. You can enjoy a round of games and have a couple of drinks too. Getting cozy doesn't always come with the tag of making out.

#11 He is trying to make a conversation

It is possible that you are overthinking this. The guy is merely trying to make a conversation here. The way you ask a person about the weather, he asks you about your weekend plans.

#8 Ask him his plans 

A smart way to deal with questions is to cross-question. When someone asks you about your weekend, you ask them what they have in mind. This is a witty and sarcastic way to reply.
