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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to the movies with this guy I'd started dating. During the movie, I thought it would be cool and funny to make sarcastic comments. When he dropped me off home, he told me that it was the worst date ever and to not talk to him again for being "annoying and obnoxious." FML
Today, I went on a date. We met in the parking lot of a restaurant. As I approached his car he took one look at me, said "Nope", and drove off. FML
Today, I went on a date with a cute guy I met at a bookstore. He stood up and said he was leaving when I said that I didn't like 50 Shades of Grey, because he, "doesn't want to be near a bitch who doesn't know her place". He then told me to give him a ride home. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML
Today, my boyfriend thought it'd be a good idea to break up with me in his car. I had to walk home. FML
Today, my boyfriend wanted to take me to a movie after days of not seeing me. This long-awaited date involved me paying for food and my movie ticket when he ran out of cash again. He then dumped me as we left the theater walking to his car. Yes, I financed my own breakup date. FML
Today, after countless nights spent together and flirty texts, I decided ask my crush on a date while at a party. We went on a walk and held hands. Just as I asked him, he said no, let go of my hand and briskly walked away. He was my ride home. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy I've had a crush on for ages. Midway through the meal, he sighed and said, "I'll be honest, this is a horrible date. You got zero personality and I'm too lazy to do a window escape, so..." He then got up and walked out. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy that I really like. At the last minute he informed me a friend would be tagging along. To keep his friend from being a third-wheel, I kept up a conversation, and managed to piss my date off. He thought I would be a better match for his friend. FML
Today, after weeks of being hounded to go out on a date with this guy, I finally found the time and invited him over, fully intending to hook up. He stood me up. 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.

Saying that she was "leading him on" by going on a date with him is ridiculous. Taking someone on a date doesn't entitle you to anything (I think that's called prostitution), and saying that she should only date the guy if she wanted to have a relationship with him is juvenile. That's not how things work in the real world.

Finally an adult opinion about dating!

I thought dates implied that you would soon become boyfriend/girlfriend. Am I not getting something here? I skipped the dating scene and went straight to marriage, so I think I'm naive on how dating works. I think this misunderstanding is why he was hurt. And I think OP needs to stop calling it a "date" when she had no intention of becoming his girlfriend. He should not have reacted that way, and things may have turned out for the better if he snapped like that. I would be pissed and humiliated for being rejected in that same manner. I can understand the other person saying that they didn't like the date and it would be a bad idea to get together. But saying that "it's bad timing" means you weren't serious at all. That's a big YDI for messing with his emotions.

Dates do not imply a soon-to-be relationship change. You date to get to know someone, and if it doesn't work out, then you stop dating.

the guy should not be dating if he can't handle rejection.

Hahahshahaha that's funny as ****! Oh well he sounds like an insecure prick anyway

the guy was a jerk. good thing she didn't get involved. accepting a date does not guarantee any further involvement in terms of having a relationship. Here is a question for those who think that OP owed the guy something -- how would you feel about the situation if he had demanded sex? does she own him that, as well? She did right to express her feelings honestly. I hope OP finds someone worthy of her soon.

Exactly! You really hit the point here. All those ppl who think OP deserved it have never been in the gray area of life, where you can't help but like someone but also don't want to get too serious.
