boy.

Is this a boy or a guy?

Siempre eres el que queda se queda solo en casa...especialmente cuando se trata de salir con chicas, cuando se trata de tener una cita con una chica. /citas con chicas

Well, oddly boy can be used to mean male, which is what I meant. He is a teenager. - webdunce, Jul 25, 2011
And thank you very much for your answer here. (Is queda se queda a typo...it should just be se queda, right?) - webdunce, Jul 25, 2011
Yay, problem solved :D - Destroyed99, Jul 25, 2011
The other character, in saying "home alone boy" is probably referring to the movie "Home Alone", but I'm not certain. She did say "boy" here though, but "el que" will work fine. - webdunce, Jul 25, 2011
Okay. She said "kid" actually. - webdunce, Jul 25, 2011

Me again... hope this helps!

Dating - Salir (o quedar, Esp) con alguien, tener una cita (as opposed to tener cita)


Date - Una cita romántica con alguien

I have always used/heard "saliendo con alguien" in my neck of the woods... and it usually means more than just the run-of-the-mill going out for a bite with a friend.... raspberry

It's something I read in an Archie comic book. Veronica is telling Jughead, "You're always the home-alone boy. Especially when it comes to dating."

My attempt so far is...

Siempre eres el niño que queda a casa solo...especialmente con respecto a tener citas romanticas.
