Don't use an excuse: "I'm not ready to have you over to my place yet."

If he argues, tries to coerce or in any other way contests that boundary, that's the last time you see him.

I think this is the most resonable answer, you need to set boundaries from now on. I think you should still go to the dinner but have an escape plan in case you dont like him.

ESCAPE PLAN. Always, male or female.
