Met a man on POF around a month ago. We have been speaking on WhatsApp and over the phone since then but have been unable to meet due to the current situation. We've been getting on really well and seem to share a lot of the same interests. The plan is/was to meet once lockdown is over and maybe go for a drink or bite to eat.
We chat often but not 24/7 which suits me as I'm still working full time. He's furloughed but at home with his son so we're both understandably busy and aren't our phones constantly. All fine (well I thought it was). We were chatting via WhatsApp on Sunday night about previous relationships and what we were both hoping to get out of dating. I asked, what I thought was a reasonable question, whether he was looking for a relationship or just sex. He explained he was looking for a relationship which was great news as that's exactly what I was looking for (I've had enough flings in my time).
The only reason I asked that question was because a lot of men and women use these dating websites now as a way to find something casual and I've learnt from past experiences to just check and make sure I'm on the same page as the other person. I really didn't see any harm in asking but it seems he's taken offence. After our chat I texted him to say good night, off to bed etc. He didn't respond until Monday afternoon asking me how my day was, all seemed fine at this point. Unfortunately on Monday night I came down with a really awful stomach bug. Had Tuesday and Wednesday off work but managed to drag myself in today but I've literally been in bed for the last 2-3 days. He texted me last night asking why I was avoiding him, I replied, apologised and explained I hadn't been very well but was feeling a bit better. He said he thought it was "weird" that I hadn't replied to him after asking that "funny question". 
I did point out that I had in fact spoken to him since then (texted to say goodnight on Sunday) and that he didn't respond until a day later. He said he thought it was strange that I would ask a question like that and then not speak to him for a couple of days 
. Again, I explained I hadn't been very well, had pretty much been bed bound and that I wasn't purposely ignoring him, I just couldn't bloody think straight. The fact I asked that question and then didn't reply for a few days was honestly just a coincidence. As mentioned above, we don't speak 24/7 so I really didn't see an issue going a couple of days without contact.
I've texted tonight to try and smooth things over, said "I do still really like you, hope we can still meet once this is all over and get to know each other a bit more). He's replied, again stating that he feels I purposely ignored him .
I've tried to meet him half way and I have explained time and time again I've been unwell. He's not once even asked me how I'm feeling which I think highlights how much of a nob he is. He just seems very paranoid and hell bent on having an argument. I don't need the stress, especially from someone I've only known for a month. I'm just wondering though, have I been reasonable, unreasonable, should have I done something differently, sent a quick message to say I wasn't well etc?? Or have I thankfully dodged a bullet?
