Am I being dramatic?

Of course there are a lot of cynical opinions and optimistic ones on here but in the end you need to go at a pace that is good for you and he needs to respect that. From what you have said here there has been a reset and you both understand the boundaries going forward.

 

Is he rebounding? Hard to tell if his old relationship died a slow death. Did you over react? Yes it would seem you did but from what I saw it wasn't as much what he did but what other guys did before him that cause the flight instinct to kick in like it did.

 

There would be a lot more single people out there if no one gave a guy/girl another chance if they messed up. I think you are right to keep seeing him and find out where this leads and since you pumped the brakes on the whole thing both of you can relax and let things happen naturally.

 

If you look closely you can see that he has been played as well. Everyone has been hurt but don't let that cause you to punish the next guy/girl.

 

Good luck and keep us posted. I hope it works out beautifully.
