How should this make me feel?

hmmm, i wonder what he meant by that…why shouldnt you push them yet?

If you can’t be open with him/her you will resent them!

Ugh, he seems like an ass to me. If you can’t debate with him, its probably not going to work in the long run.
If he likes you for your brain he shouldn’t be an ass about you being opinionated and strong.
Nate and I would debate about some EXTREMELY strong opposing opinions that we had/have and we did it from day one.

We’ve only been dating for about 2 weeks

whats the boundaries?

I disagree with the sentiment here. It’s all highly dependent on the topic. If you were debating politics, then yeah, you have every right to be concerned. But if you are debate abortion, euthanasia or any other topic that can be highly personal, you might want to step back.

Chances are that you’re pushing up against some sort of personal experience that he’d rather not discuss with you this early.

Like soundedfury said, your boyfriend is obviously emotionally invested in the topic at question here and is uncomfortable with the topic. If he just said that so he no longer has to debate any further, then you probably are justified in feeling a little upset.

2 weeks really isn’t a long time. Sometimes it takes a good while for the both of you to become comfortable in talking about certain topics. My advice to you would be to tell him you understand how he’s feeling and would like to pursue it at another time when he feels like he’ll be able to talk about it.

Well after that happened we stopped talking and now two hours later I got a text saying that he wasn’t trying to be mean.

It’s really difficult to answer this question without knowing the subject you were trying to discuss with him . He may not be ready to discuss certain things after only two weeks. But it looks like you have worked it out for now.

Sounds like a warning bell to me. I would just step back and take a look at what was happening. It is not a big deal right? You are probably pushing buttons that he does not feel comfortable having pushed yet. Try asking him about it a week later.
As for everyone dissing the guy, please keep in mind that he must be important to her if she cares enough to share and I feel it is rude to smash on someones potential love.

I was just going to suggest he needed to phrase that a little less combative. Perhaps “I am sorry, but I am not comfortable discussing that with you just yet.” He was pretty in your face. I mean, unless you were missing huge flags and he told you a few times, how could you have known.

It depends on what you said to him, meaning you’re not being insulting or name calling. But apart from that, this is a free world (sort of) and you are more than entitled to have your own opinions. The gentleman should accept and respect that and be happy that he has found a woman who is intelligent and independent enough to have her own opinions and stand by them. Is he expecting you to agree with everything he says?
