Hi, I don’t know if the belongs here. There is this guy I know from school (I’m 23F) that wanted to go on a date with me. He called me first. I later saw his text. I don’t know him very well and find it odd to call someone out of the blue. I think it’s a GenZ thing. I kinda feel bad and don’t really told him I’m not interested in dating. I usually told a lie why I couldn’t date him (mostly partially true). He only wants to call and he called a couple of times without asking me if I can call which I see as polite to do so. I usually text someone if it’s at their convenience to call.
The thing is, my gut feeling tells me that this guy is possessive and can possibly stalk me. I have a bad feeling about this guy. Nobody believes me. They just tell me that it’s brave of him to ask me out. I keep on telling them (friends and family) that I don’t owe him anything for showing courage. They just say it’s a polite thing to give him a chance. I’m afraid by giving him a chance that I’m opening Pandoras box.
Am I wrong for having a bad feeling about this guy? Should I just tell him gently that I’m not interested?
