I rejected him and now he is mad at me, should I feel bad?

You feel what you feel, but your actions certainly made sense.

no. You weren’t mean nor rude.

He’s just immature and his ego has been bruised. Men often react with anger when their ego gets hurt.

No, you should not feel bad.

How can someone feel used after one week and two dates? Unless they were very expensive outings that you suggested but he paid for, I don’t see how he was “used”.

If you communicated clearly where you stood in terms of not being ready for a relationship, he’s obviously not a good listener, and is acting immaturely. It seems to me that you’re better off without this one.

As for not feeling attracted, I’ve had relationships where the attraction took a while to develop, because it was attraction to who they were, not how they looked.

No need to feel bad. It isn’t your fault he is a special snowflake.

And what is the alternative? Should you waste his time faking it so he isn’t hurt? That isn’t fair to either of you. Life is short so don’t waste time.

I agree with everything said here so far. Don’t let him make you feel bad He is dealing with the hurt of rejection, but that is not your fault. It sounds like you handled it just right. Have some patience, he will likely cool off soon.

Straight and to the point. There should not need to be anything more said, I think you handled it well. He’ll just have to lick his wounds, be a man and respect your decision at this point.

I think you handled it all week; you gave it a shot, you didn’t say anything mean, you put an end to it quickly. He is obviously not ready for any relationship at all if that is how he acted.

Don’t respond to him any more in any way.

Two dates is a very short time to make a decision about a relationship. He will learn that as he goes along in life. Some people date for months or even years before committing to anything ore than dating. He pressurized you, don’t feel bad. You are entitled to thinking things through. How he feels is his issue.

I had a guy that hounded me after only one date. He was a braggart, told me how much money he made, what he owned, etc. I was not interested in that type of person and he tried to make me feel as if I used him for a lunch date! He actually said that! He told me I owed him a lunch. I told him I would give him his 7.99 plus tip to just shut up and leave me alone. I had met him at the gym and had to stop going to get rid of him.
Never feel bad for going with what you feel.

No, you shouldn’t feel bad. Life’s a bitch and sometimes you get rejected. Time he figured that out and grew up.

I think you dodged a bullet. One week and two dates and he thinks you owed him. He’s a psycho. Consider yourself lucky. What do you think he’d be like a few months down the road.

A guy has no reason to expect anything after two dates. You’re still getting to know each other at that point, and it’s better to know sooner rather than later if the two of you have a future. Sounds like you did him a favour, and he’s too dim witted to recognise it.

On the contrary, feel good that the loser got ditched in the dirt before he sucked the life out of you.
