My ex just asked me to go out for ice cream later... I'm not sure what to do?

We're on good terms right now, but honestly knowing him if I say yes he's going to take it the wrong way and think it's an okay to date again which it isn't. Also knowing him, even though we're not together he probably bought be a ridiculously expensive present like he usually does and I'm not comfortable or okay with that. The problem is that I don't know how to say no without setting him off or making him mad and when he's mad he's terrifying. I don't need to deal with the stress or him going around being an ass over this.

WOW hes your ex and he has still put a fear in you to say NO..WOW...just WOW... i am truly at a loss of words. How about you say that you have other plans and cant do anything today but what about next week? That way its not a no and you dont have to worry about setting him off

@black4white I know. It's sad, but when you know what someone is capable of doing it's hard not to have fear when dealing with them. That's good advice though and I think that might be the best way to reply so I don't make him mad.
