The correct phrase is "I hesitated." The verb "hesitate" is intransitive, which means it does not take a direct object. In this case, "hesitated" is the past tense form of the verb, used to describe a moment of pause or indecision.

To form the past tense, simply add "-ed" to the base form of the verb. So, "hesitated" is the correct past tense form of "hesitate".

If you want to use the passive voice, the correct phrase would be "I was hesitant." In this case, the verb "hesitant" is used as an adjective to describe the subject (in this case, "I"), rather than the action being performed by the subject. However, it is less common to use the passive voice with the verb "hesitate" in this context.
