Is this a red flag?

[WTAFF]

I went on a date yesterday with a man I've been dating for a few weeks.

He told me we were going on a walk. I was really looking forward to it and was dressed appropriately with boots etc.

The walk turned out to be a hike along a high river cliff which was completely overgrown. At points I was having to practically crawl under trees and cling on to the grass so as not to fall over the cliff. Although I admit I'm not great with heights. I was genuinely scared.

He took a bit of a huff that I was struggling and walked on ahead not speaking to me. When I asked why he couldn't have helped me out a bit instead of walking off (at some points I actually couldn't see him) he said there was no point, as if he helped me we would both grind to a halt and his way, at least one of us kept moving. He also said I needed to find my own way.

I'm a bit . I'm meant to be seeing him again on Friday. I suggested going out for a meal but he said we could get a takeaway instead. Should I ditch him now before it gets worse or am I over-reacting?

What is wrong with your boundaries that you even have to ask?

[Lweji]

At least for a decade.

[ShyCharles]

Barry in Eastenders is dead???

[SystemAticcally]

Why would you waste your time?

[iknowimcoming]

Well since someone else mentioned Friends, Google "Joey doesn't share food" also dump the twat!

[avamiah]

He sounds awful.
Move on.
Life is too short .

[HedgehogHedgehog]

If you didnt enjoy his company then dont see him again? Maybe some people would have found that date fun. You dont sound like you did though and if you arent having fun then yes id just leave it now its not likely to get better if his idea of a good time is so far from yours. x

[Mellowautumn]

If it walks like a Twat and sounds like a Twat ......

[pictish]

Nope nope nope nope nope. This is not a warm man, a sharing man or a gentleman. Poor partner material and make no mistake.
Don't settle for this shit.

[Hissy]

Wow, What a spectacular bellend!!!!

[PreemptiveSalvageEngineer]

I'm glad contenda got in there first with the Janine query - I haven't seen EastEnders in yonks!

[BitOutOfPractice]

OP Please let us help you write the dumping text!

How about "take a walk off a cliff?"

[chipmonkey]

God, what a prick! Glad you're not seeing him again. You would have a horrific life if you ended up with him.

[AndTheBandPlayedOn]

He was asserting his dominance. Not just to be your superior/make you subordinate. The additional examples are just astounding-the food...it is like you weren't even there. Not meeting your needs? With him, it appears you don't even figure into the equation! He would have you invisible in your own life before too long.
Erase him before he erases you.

[DurhamDurham]

Run.....run like the wind!!

He sounds awful, can you imagine just how horrible he could be after a few years?
I wonder if he'll be shocked when you tell him the next date is off? He might think he's being all masterful and that you're impressed by his behaviour. Are you going to tell him he's a bit of a dick?

[HuckfromScandal]

Bin and move on.
Not for the walk but the attitude sucks big time

[Footle]

My DH is a seriously ambitious walker and I'm a totally crap one. When we do walk together, he walks either next to me or slightly behind me. It's nothing like his usual walking but it makes it possible and enjoyable for me. Find yourself one of those.

[Lweji]

The OP could still push him and then go (very loudly) Oh, my god!

[Scarlettablue]

The Friends woman was Janice.

[Dozer]

Murderous Janine! I thought the poster meant the "oh.my.god." Janine from Friends!

I would enjoy a takeaway with grant and phil.

[Lweji]

Lweiji and I are as one.

Like Grant and Phil.

[Lweji]

Also, I might walk off if someone I had just started dating had a go at me for ordering a starter or whatever.

[icouldabeenacontender]

Oh I see
I don't know about incitement to murder, by the sounds of him she'd have been providing a service to humanity.

[LineyReborn]

Lweiji and I are as one.

[LineyReborn]

Janine shoved Barry off a hillside and killed him.

Eastenders init.
