Not to go on this date because of this one comment?

I have been on one date with him and I wasn't sure if I wanted a second but I agreed anyway.
Yesterday I was just talking to him and said "gonna clean my wardrobe out"
He replied .."you will have to show me on Friday when I'm in your bedroom"
Now I know that's not even a bad comment but as if I would sleep with him on the second date and how presumptuous that I would be sleeping with him.
Aibu to be put off ?

Ewwww. YANBU - it's a crass, arrogant comment and I would run a mile from this man.

Kazooboohoo · 14/09/2019 21:53

If you (quote) "don't fancy him in the slightest" then that's the end of that.

But the idea of cutting off anyone like dirt at the merest hint of an off-colour comment... fucking hell.

Iflyaway · 14/09/2019 21:53

Why even bother with Corblimey's extremely convoluted 2nd date? (Presume it was in Jest).

Life is too short to bother with a 2nd date if there is no spark, in my opinion.

Funnyface1 · 14/09/2019 21:55

Yeah I'd give that one a miss.

saraclara · 14/09/2019 22:01

ew.

cacklingmags · 14/09/2019 22:03

Swerved that one. Better men out there.

MitziK · 14/09/2019 22:03

Just no.

And tell him why in the message - then block before he can reply.

SunshineCake · 14/09/2019 22:07

Raise your standards, Kazoo Hmm.

Um, are we not talking about someone she's met once?

cut off like dirt ...don't be so fucking ridiculous...

WaggingKnife · 14/09/2019 22:10

YANBU.
What a presumptuous creep.

eddielizzard · 14/09/2019 22:10

Bleurgh. Would be a 'no' from me...

ThirstyGhost · 14/09/2019 22:17

Oh no OP that is just grim. It's not a slightly "off-colour" comment either. It's saying on our next date when I presume we will be having sex, basically.

timshelthechoice · 14/09/2019 22:20

Ewww. Nope. Raise your standards! 'Off colour comment', my arse. Just rank. Like school in the Summer time: no class.

NitrousOxide · 14/09/2019 22:27

Gross. The only time this kind of comment might be OK is if you’d both done a lot of mutual and obviously sexual flirting already. For him to spring it on you like that shows a sense of entitlement and a serious lack of class. Bleugh.

hatshoeleg · 14/09/2019 22:35

Not only that but he swears in pretty much every sentence when talking
He also had stale beer breath

AdoraBell · 14/09/2019 22:41

Big fat NO. Hope you’ve told him to piss off.

81Byerley · 14/09/2019 22:52

No, don't see him again. He doesn't sound nice.

TypingoftheDead · 14/09/2019 22:52

Even without the sexual comment, the whole stale beer breath and swearing like Gordon Ramsey would put me off. I don't even mind swearing as a rule.
Chuck this one back in the sea!

Sunshine93 · 14/09/2019 22:55

My fanny clamped itself shut reading that. Yuck.

Tis made me giggle but also go "that's so true" the mark of a good Mumsnet response.

Please don't meet this man again and I was thinking that before saw the stale beer breath comment!!!

CurlyhairedAssassin · 14/09/2019 22:55

Did you not ask him “what would you be doing in my bedroom?”

Divebar · 14/09/2019 22:56

You are not unreasonable to turn him down for a second date but unreasonable in the statement “ as if I’d sleep with him on a second date”.

hatshoeleg · 14/09/2019 23:00

Another little gem ...he drives and has a car
I've recently just got a car ..his response
"Oh great you can come over my way instead of me to you"
I said that would work both ways
His reply ..yeah yeah
So seems lazy too and wants it all on a plate for him

VenusTiger · 14/09/2019 23:03

If you were really into him, this comment would’ve made you smile. You’ve worked out that you’re not into him as his comment has really put you off. Don’t waste yours, or his time.
But, I wouldn’t be mean with him about it, he’s only human, and was obviously trying to flirt. Us ladies are hard to read at the best of times, so he obviously thought a comment might be best in figuring out how you’d react. Better that than him leaning in for a snog if you’re not ready. Good luck with your dating!

Benjispruce · 14/09/2019 23:04

Yanbu. Count yourself lucky you had an early warning.

timshelthechoice · 14/09/2019 23:04

He wants an easy shag. Just cancel it and block.
