Male friend told me my clothes are ‘old fashioned’

I’m 52 and about 6 months ago I did internet dating and met up with someone on it. I decided I didn’t fancy him but he seems very attracted to me. After 2 dates I informed him that was how I felt but he said that was ok he just wanted to be friends. I suppose because my circumstances mean I lack company I agreed because he is ok although a bit irritating. I also thought well it might just expand my social circle. I still feel though he is just trying to work his way into being in a relationship with me. And I don’t fancy him. He phoned me to arrange to meet up for a cup of coffee somewhere and then said this: I’m going to take you shopping because your clothes are ‘old fashioned’! He has also said other stuff to me such as telling me I’m ‘posh’. I think this is enough! I’m going to text him and say I don’t want to meet him again and end this. What would you do

Well done for getting rid.

As first OLD experiences go, it could have been a lot worse!
Remember that - often for us men- the reality of meeting someone with a view to dating then means we can be less good than women at being ‘just friends’ if things don’t click.

Obviously dump him, but just out of interest what does he wear?
