He made it pretty clear he liked me as more than a friend, although nothing had ever happened between us that went beyond talking. The night before our date, a mutual friend told me he has a girlfriend. So I asked him about it, which he denied. I decided not to go on the date. If his girlfriend didn't know he was taking other girls out for dinner... call me old fashioned. I thought I would be mature about it and just keep it to hi and bye. But he became really cruel, so I backed off completely. Now he uses any opportunity to try to talk to me. I'm not sure why as he is still being cruel. Is his ego just bruised?

Yes block his number and be careful who you open your front door to. I'd advise you not to aggravate him, just go silent, and if you can't physically avoid him (mutual friends, whatever), be as boring as possible so he loses interest in you. He'll move on to someone else with time. Good luck, OP.

If he doesn't leave you alone in short order I'd get a restraining order, he's too creepy and weird.

jenn_jenn is verified as being by the original poster of the questionHe works in the area and seems to know quite a lot of people. I assumed as everyone appeared to get on with him that he was a good man. I think I will block his number!

Oh dear, he sounds like a menace. He turned up your house uninvited? Um, yes, his ego is bruised and he is decidedly weird. You were right not to let him in your home.
How do you know this man? Is it possible to block him out of your life completely?

jenn_jenn is verified as being by the original poster of the questionHey, thanks for your replies. He came over to apologise for being so cruel. Then texts me and starts all over again because I didn't let him in my house. He said 'I suggest next time someone comes over, you invite them in and clean your house'. My house is spotless!Ignoring this cruel little man is my best option :)

And you trust the person who told you about the GF 100% If so, you did the right thing. In any respect, I think you did the right thing anyways because how how he reacted (being cruel).
Keep ignoring him, apparently he can't understand that someone ACTUALLY turned him down.
Sounds like he is trying to goad your or bully you because you hurt his wee little ego.
What a prat!
You dodged a bullet.

Just another cheating idiot looking for an ego boost.
Glad you got away from him.

Yikes! What a psycho! Glad you called it! I think your instincts are right. This guy seems a little unhinged so take care and walk to your car with others if in a social situation with him around. Good going!
