writes:I agreed to a blind date suggested by a mutual friend of myself and the gentleman in question. We spoke in person just long enough to arrange the date, but haven't actually gone out yet. I've just learned that he changed his Facebook status to "in a relationship" shortly after we set up the date. This makes me feel very uneasy about going out with him or giving him any kind of encouragement at all, but I can't very well cancel the date without explaining why. Am I overreacting? What should I do?

 Is it possible he's in a relationship with someone else?

 Huge red flag. Hes possibly needy n clingy. Cancel n have ur friend tell him what he did wrong.

 I think you should cancel the date, say you are not ready to date, anything! If he thinks you are in a relationship after one conversation who knows what he would be like after you meet.

 If he thinks you're in a relationship after arranging a date then what's he going to do when you actually get on the date?! Propose?! He sounds weird to me, like something a 12 year old would do. If it were me I would cancel as he really doesn't need anymore encouragment!

 Okay, so he might have changed his status because he is in another relationship [not with you] or, as I suspect, he is already "married" to you and has planned what kind of house and car and how many kids you are going to have...
You already are questioning his behaviour, so I think the next step would be to gracefully bow out of the date.
