Was meant to have a first date today with a guy -been texting back and forth and seemed nice but haven't t spoken

Woke up to a text this morning after id suggested a late lunch

He said hopes he isn't pushing his luck but if we hit it off he was thinking he would stay over , turn it into supper and have a few drinks then stay over

He's expecting sex on date 1 isn't he ?

I dont want to take a stranger to my house .

I've made an excuse and turned my phone on silent

I've got the ick .

I wonder if that approach has ever worked for him.
I wouldn’t make an excuse, I’d just say ‘let’s not bother meeting after all’ and block him.

Aftjbtibg · 25/03/2023 10:52

Ugh no, that’s quite weird actually. Did he just need somewhere to stay for a night? If something like that develops then fine but he’s basically planning it out

NillyNoMates · 25/03/2023 10:52

That is very presumptuous of him.

anotherNameJustForThis · 25/03/2023 10:53

Nope nope nope

Cancel, he's a creep

drinkingcream · 25/03/2023 10:53

I wouldn't even bother replying just block him

Treeabovethefire · 25/03/2023 10:53

Did he honestly just invite himself to yours for night?? Get him gone!

category12 · 25/03/2023 10:58

Haha, no.

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:01

Ffs . He was my first date in a year .

How the fuck do I manage to pick 'em .

Annoyingwurringnoise · 25/03/2023 11:01

I think if you had agreed, he would’ve definitely felt that you had hit it off. Your thread title should be, ’canceled date with CF.’

WeCome1 · 25/03/2023 11:03

Speak to them on the phone first another time. You can get a better feel for whether you really get on. It’s easier to be clever and funny by typing.

But for now, you need to say you are a bit surprised at that and you don’t want to meet up.

qqq82 · 25/03/2023 11:07

F-U-C-K .... T-H-A-T!

The absolute brass neck . I'd be blocking him

Standbyguest · 25/03/2023 11:10

Ew, supper? That word alone is ick inducing.

TaunterOfWomenInGeneralSaysSayonarastu · 25/03/2023 11:11

I've made an excuse and turned my phone on silent

Well done, but you didn't need to make an excuse.
You were well within your rights to ask him what the fuck he thought he was playing at, & why he thought you were stupid enough to allow a total stranger into your home.

It's not just the CF presumption that a woman he has not even met yet might give him sex - it's his total disregard to the most basic concepts of women's safety & comfort.

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:18

What do I say to him ?

OP posts:
Rainbowqueeen · 25/03/2023 11:21

Nothing. You owe him nothing.

Just block and delete.

stealthninjamum · 25/03/2023 11:21

I wouldn’t say anything, he already knew he was being presumptuous and so shouldn’t be too surprised if you block him.

slowquickstep · 25/03/2023 11:21

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:18

What do I say to him ?

You say nothing. Block him.

ChangedForEmbarrassingQuestions · 25/03/2023 11:22

Say ‘no’.

category12 · 25/03/2023 11:22

"Haha, no." ? 😊

Or

"Yeah, actually that was really pushing your luck, and has put me right off, so [kthxbai / good luck in future endeavours.]"

neitherofthem · 25/03/2023 11:23

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:18

What do I say to him ?

"Yes, you are pushing your luck, several steps too far. Sorry, not interested, bye".

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:18

What do I say to him ?

Just block him

Thoughtful2355 · 25/03/2023 11:31

EWW NOPE! Red flag! not only did he presume it would go so well that your legs would just open willingly for him but he also Invited himself TO YOUR HOUSE! to stay!!! That is definitely a CF

AnyaMarx · 25/03/2023 11:32

Unmatched, blocked.

I did just say

@AnyaMarx I see your random 'nice' guy who turned your lunch date into staying over at your house, and I raise you my 'nice' guy from real life who turned my coffee date into me having a 'sleepover' at a hotel.

I did not go.

I was hugely disappointed because he wasn't some guy from OLD; he was someone I thought I knew quite well. He said all the right things, we agreed to a cute first date and then just before, he tried to change it into me going to a hotel with him.

Do these men think they're god's gift to women or something?

It gave me the ick too.

I want to feel desired, but I want someone to want to spend time with me too. The whole rushing too quickly to suggest a sleepover makes me feel like my personality and my thoughts are worthless, and actually, that's worse than feeling ugly.
