First "date"

Last week as I was walking to the Writing Lab a voice behind me said hi, he continued to try making conversation so I stopped so we could walk together, not trying to be rude. As we parted ways he asked my name and followed by asking for my number.

Side-note: Because of the rarity of a guy asking for my number in person, I always give it to one who does.

Even though he has barely texted me, I have seen him around, and since I started working in the Athletic Department again, he turned up and for some reason I kept running into him. One day, I was sitting in the Student Union Building of my school and he came to sit by me. In our conversation, he asked me if I wanted to go to downtown Coeur d'Alene with him, I accepted and he said "it's a date", I said "okay".

So last night I went on this date. The vibes I was getting from him weren't good ones, for some reason even when spending as much time with him as I did talking in the SUB, nothing was interesting to me, and I am not interested in him, but I firmly believe in giving everyone a chance so long as you don't lead them on.
He picked me up and was wearing a huge cowboy hat, that didn't score any points (not appealing at all) and then we drove to downtown and got out to walk, we walked around the resort and saw the display of lights my beautiful city puts up every year. We just had casual conversation and me, not being interested was careful to keep my hands in my pocket. Somethings he said were just so weird, he felt the need to mention that he shaved just for that "occasion", and I kid you not...he mentioned that we were on a "date" 10 times!

After our walk, he wanted to buy me an ornament but the ornament store was closed...he did not have a plan B, at this point, I am just so annoyed and cold and I seriously already wanted it to end, actually, I wanted it to end the second we got out of the car.

He decided to take me to meet his best friend, so we went to his house. When he knocked on the door, he turned around, grabbed my hips and tilted his head -to keep from hitting me with his big hat- to the side and kissed me. Now, the kiss started out okay, but then he practically shoved his tongue down my throat, not okay with me. Afterward, he took me to Jack in the Box, really? Well, I guess I shouldn't complain, I wouldn't have enjoyed sitting in a restaurant with him...

We ate in the car and just sat there, so we headed over to his friends house again... before he started his car up, he kissed me again (shoot me).
When we got inside, he introduced me to the 4 people who were there as Elauren? I don't even know how to spell it! But he said my name but with an 'n' at the end, I was not happy, he doesn't even know my name! I sent it to him in a text message before.

As we sit there talking to his friends I am careful not to talk, I was literally counting down the minutes until he took me home, I was waiting for a big party that was suppose to happen last night, a Christmas one with all my friends, not only that but he was incredibly awkward and made a comment about my posture! (WTF)

When he said we would leave in 8 minutes I was so relieved! 

He dropped me off and kissed me good-bye, I liked the dropping off part, not the kissing part...

And that's not all.
He showed up at the party! -_-

At the party I kept feeling him grab my waste and try dancing with me, I just moved away. I had been hanging out with other guys, my friends, and meeting new ones and he kept showing up! He even kissed me again. UGH!

At any rate, he literally scored NO points with me. 
1.) Not warning me he was on his way, he just texted saying "here"
2.) What he wore
3.) Not having a plan
4.) Bragging about things he did or was going to do for me
5.) Taking me to Jack in the Box
6.) Kissing me...period
7.) Mentioning we were on a date 10 times
8.) Opening the door and saying "I guess this is still the first date" assuming there would be more
9.) He asked me "do you not like guys who smoke"

I might sound stuck up and rude, but is it my fault I don't like him? I let him take me out, right? I believe everyone deserves a chance, and I gave it to him.

He didn't make me laugh, I like a guy who can make me laugh, I felt like he was trying to hard, and the way he was treating me was like he thought I was interested, too even though I've shown no sign of it. I feel like guys should be able to pick up on hints.

Now the problem: How do I let him down easy?
Honestly, if I don't figure it out, I will just end up ignoring him until he feels too rejected to keep trying.
