how to get a guy to ask you on a date

so recently i found out one of my best friends boyfriends friend likes me. so i finally decided to dm him on instagram and then a small conversation happened nothing big. he said he wanted to ask me out to said best-friends boyfriend, but he doesn’t know for sure and says he doesn’t have money right now but i actually really want to go on this date man. so i’m confused of what he’s doing just thought i would confuse some other ladies too. why are boys so annoying like just frickin do it
