How often should you aspire to listen to your gut? is your gut ever wrong? There is a guy that I backed out of a BBQ thing because I didn't want to go and I didn't feel comfortable going. I feel better when there are lots of other friends around. I've told this guy that I am not interested in him romantically and i have made this message resoundingly loud and clear. I said causally " we can go to the fireworks display, I'll invite some friends around and we can all go together" He's invited me this weekend. I don't mind hanging out with him in groups but one on one it makes me feel very uncomfortable. Because I have said to him " I'm not interested in you romantically" to him, I'm expecting him to hear this message and get the message. When I said to him I'll invite a group of friends he said that he had invited some friends but he hadn't heard from them yet. Is this guy trying to pursue me again? We use to go out on dates a few months ago and once when I was sick he wouldn't take me home even though I told him at least three times. He then text me to say " I see what you're doing, you're trying to make me earn it" which was ridiculous. I was sick. He didn't seem to believe me.

 

What should I do? Safety in numbers? and gut instincts? has anyone had a gut instinct about someone and they were right about someone? or has anyone had a gut instinct about someone and they felt the person to be a "creeper" and they were regretfully wrong about him/her?

OP,

 

Listen to your gut. I canceled a first date tonight with a new guy because I had my doubts about him. Normally I am excited about a first date but this one scared me. I do feel like I did the right thing. I've ignored my gut in the past and always regretted it. So please listen to your gut.

Trust it. Like Georgia, I've at times ignored and the results have been more trouble than it is worth.

 

I'll admit I've been that guy before but there is a way to go about persistence. If you feel he is crossing the boundary, then sometimes it is better to seriously talk to him about this. Almost to break up with him.

Just don't go out with him at all. There you go.

Please trust your instinct. If something feels wrong about a person you're probably right. Don't be alone with him.
