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.

Wow, screw every last person who said you deserve it. Going on a date with someone does NOT automatically mean "yes I definitely want to be your girlfriend!" Asking someone for that level of commitment after one date together seems incredibly rushed to me, and he was obviously an immature manchild if he reacts to rejection with "THEN GET OUT OF MY CAR AND WALK!!" FYL OP, you absolutely did not deserve that, or the idiotic commenters.

What if it was a bad date? A date just means your spending time with someone to see if you wanna spend more time with them..... there shouldn't be any pressure or obligation. FYL OP!!!

It seems you got lucky this time. Saying YDI would imply thinking that you should have caved and potentially ended up in a toxic relationship, judging from his reaction to such a harmless statement. That said, a hypothetical guy could get blown off by the "bad timing" excuse and then watch as his love interest glides by on the arm of some other fellow two weeks later. It will never stop being bad timing... unless it's somebody that you more than "kind of" like. I suggest adding a credible explanation next time, or just be honest and simply say you don't feel like you're right for each other.

Praise the lert that nuttin went don beteen you two.

no such thing as bad timing if you really like a person. but yeah i think it would've been better if you just said no than that bad timing reason..
