Help! Why is he mad at me?

I was seeing a guy for a couple weeks. I asked What he wanted out of a relationship and he went off about his ex hurting him and how hurt he was and how he's a changed person. Was he trying to push me away because it kind of felt as though he was. Then he said he never wants to marry me or have kids. It was strange because I never brought that up to him. I simply told him I was looking for something long term and maybe he was using me to get over the pain she caused him. I said we could stay as friends. He went off about not wanting anything serious. I wrote him asking him how he was doing and he doesn't seem to want to talk to me

    To answer you directly - Whatever it is that is wrong, it is in his head. It isnt your problem. Replace, dont chase.

    He's likely not mad. You made it clear you were seeking a "long term relationship" right off the bat before you even know the guy and it scared him off because he isn't shopping for a life partner at the moment and likely feels like if that ever happens it'll be because he met someone that grew on him with time. It could be he has plenty of platonic female friends already and wasn't searching for any more. Or, since you made your view so clear, that continuing to see you in any manner would be like falling into your trap. I just think you scared him off. Likely best to just let it be what it is. You telling him you could "stay as friends" does not obligate him to do so.

    He was mad at you because your question made him face exactly what he had been trying to avoid by dating you: the fact that he isn't over his ex-girlfriend. And upon that he realized he wasn't in any shape to date anyone for the moment. In other words, you nailed the reason why.

    Next time you meet a guy like that (and you will), don’t ask questions about what he wants AND don’t let him take up all the air in the room sounding off about his ex. Tell him you don’t want to discuss her. Be light and charming at all times.
