You: "I want to just date".
He: "No, I want an exclusive relationship, I won't just date."
You: " **** off".
Because if he won't just date, he might as well go **** himself, right?
Also, red flags are extremely important and trusting your gut is extremely important.
You are worried that you are not a good judge of character, but you ARE. The problem is not that you did not judge his character correctly, but in that you disregarded your judgment. So no problem with the judgment, just believe in yourself next time around.
