Today, I went on a date to the movies with this guy I kinda like. When he was driving me home, he asked me to be his girlfriend; I said I couldn’t because it was really bad timing. He kicked me out of the car, called me an asshole, and made me walk home. FML

OP said she kind of liked him, so she must have been feeling it to some degree. She wasn't expecting him to ask her to be his girlfriend on the very first date. That's not realistic. She didn't say she didn't want things to go further in the future, she just didn't want things to go further right now.

Just because she kind of likes him doesn't mean she should automatically accept. Could be she got out of a relationship recently and wanted to take it slow, or perhaps she just wanted to get to know him a bit better. Might have been going through a complicated time in her life... We really don't know but at least she was honest and didn't jump into what could possibly have been a bad relationship judging by his actions.

I voted both fml and ydi....he overreacted a tad but why would you go out with him if you didn't want to take it any further?

She said she kinda liked him. How would you know if you'd want to take it further if you didn't go on a date?

She didn't say first date. Honestly sounds like she was trying to be a player and wasn't smooth about it. That ass got busted and he wasn't playing.

It doesn't matter how many dyes they went on. If she didn't feel like the timing was right or that they didn't know each other well enough then why should she jump into a relationship that was going to make her uncomfortable? I can tell there are a lot of really huge jerks on here. Are all you guys really this disrespectful towards women?

You should have said yes in the car when you were miles away from your house, then dumped him via text just after he drops you off. That's the way to do it these days. Face-to-face confrontation is so 20th century!

But it's not like she knew he was going to react that way.

You liked him and even went on a date with him but then... What?

I can say that in hindsight... Better choice to not be with that guy. Better off

His reaction was a bit over the top, but I can see why he's upset. I mean, most people do assume the person you're on a date with is actually interested in something more. Besides, "it's bad timing" is basically as terrible as saying "it's not you, it's me".

But what if it was obvious that it was bad timing? What if OP just got out of a really bad relationship, and she thought seeing this guy would make her feel better?

If she knew ahead of time, maybe she should've given the guy fair warning.

45- Then that would be a bad decision making on OP's part. I'm not saying she completely deserves it, just pointing out the fact that the guy being upset isn't completely unreasonable (though his reaction certainly was).

I think it was bad timing because she's still getting to know him & she just started to like him then he popped the question when she's not ready to be exclusive with someone she doesn't know well or have strong feelings for him.

#54 I was wondering if anyone in this thread was ever going get that point. By saying "it was really bad timing" (rather than "I'm sorry, but I don't think we're right for each other" or "I think we need to get to know each other better first"), it sounds like she knew BEFORE the date that there was no chance of a relationship, but then went out with him anyway (look, free movie!), which is a pretty shitty thing to do if it is clearly supposed to be a date. Kicking her out of the car is clearly unacceptable, but he had plenty of reason to be pissed.

That's a horrible thing to do. That would just be using the bloke as a means to feel better. Think how the bloke would feel about that.

Yeah, I've had that happen to me before, I drove 26 miles to meet up with someone at her house, then take her downtown - only to have her meet up with her ex (which I found was pre-planned), blow me off and have the nerve to text me thanking me for the free ride later that day.

I turned out to have been instrumental in them getting back together. Honestly? I wish I'd found out ahead of time so I could have driven her ass right the **** back home :P

Why wouldn't you have made your position clear, before wasting his time? His reaction obviously makes him an asshole, but you should have let him know before he spent so much energy on you that you had no interest in anything serious.

I feel like its both FYL and YDI. If its "bad timing" then why did you even bother going on a date with him? So YDI. But his reaction was ridiculous and now you realize he's an ass hole . So FYL

Maybe he gets friend-zoned often and got tired of it

Even if that were true, it's really rude for him to react the way he did to OP.

Yeah... He's apparently nuts. Just imagine how bad it could have been if you had entered into a relationship with him... At least you got some cardio in?

Did you at least explain why it was bad timing? Why were you on a date if you had absolutely no intentions to take it further? It's rude to play with people's emotions you know...
