I think, though you did "make him cry", you handled the afterwards exceptionally well.

Sorry I didn't reply back to you before -- and to cut to the chase since I need to get to bed -- I know you said you didn't have the coordination to put on a kimono before, but do you have the inclination? I can hook you up with just about everything you'd need aside from the "underwear" part, and if you are super-super cheap, you can always use a scoop-neck undershirt and boxers, if you need. (Or yukata skivvies.) I'm taking a kitsuke class in Niigata on Sunday evenings. You'd be welcome to join, if you'd like.
