If you ever do it again, insist that you lead. Just, because.

Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.
Perhaps he wanted to impress you muchly for future face sitting?
Or he just enjoys riding at a fast pace.
I agree it's not "cool" to fuck off and leave a newbie behind, especially during dark. Poor wee damsel!

Next time ask him if he can do decent stand-up wheelies.
Seriously though, that isn't really good riding etiquette. he may have just got carried away with his ride, but then if he isn't capable or remembering that he has an inexperienced rider with him, then he shouldn't be trying to lead one. I am (was...when I had a motorbike...currently bikeless) a relatively fast rider, but when I had new riders with me, I would adjust my pace AND tell them that if they lose me, not to worry, i would be waiting at the appropriate turnoff for them. Most guys I know did/do the same.
Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.
The same type of people that get their shits and giggles from scaring pillions. Only to add more people into the anti-motorcycle brigade.
Stick to people you trust and unknowns that happen to be travelling down the road you're on at a comfortable pace.
