A guy I met on a dating app was trying to entice me to have sex with him by offering me money. I am in no way shape or form a prostitute, but I am a broke college student. I went to his house, took the money, then tried to make an excuse to leave, but as I was trying to leave the guy blocked the front door and got physical with me. I am 5’9 and 170 pounds however and this man was much shorter and smaller than me, so I shoved him off and left. He is threatening to call the cops and press charges, and I am not super worried but am just wondering what the legal implications are. I have screenshots of messages from him offering to pay me for sex, but I also in the texts agreed to it because I was planning to just take the money and leave from the start.

Of course you can get in trouble. What you did is fraud followed by strong-arm robbery. You should be very worried.
It’s called fraud. Return the money.
I’m sorry – you’re asking if lying to someone to get money from them is illegal? You can’t be seriously asking this question.
He has absolutely no right to assault you and you have the absolute right to report him for that. Separately, you are also committing multiple crimes(prostitution and fraud) and can face criminal penalties for that.
