What was the pettiest reason you refused to date someone?

An old co-worker of mine who I thought was pretty cute had an obvious crush on me. But I was kinda pig-headed and didn't really make a move for a while. Eventually, some of our other co-workers and her friends would like, confront me and ask why I haven't asked her out, and that kinda bothered me lol. I didn't like the insinuatuon that I HAD to ask this girl out and I hated that everybody was expecting me to and always pushing me and stuff like that. Nothing that the girl herself did wrong, just people we knew annoying the shit out of me about it, so I ignored her crush for like two years and was kinda a huge dick to her to put an end to all the gossip.

Eventually I got my head out of my ass and asked her out, now we're going on 4 years together. I'm probably gonna marry her lol. Thank fuck she has the patience of a saint
