Dating question

I met a guy on an app (not tinder) in early Sept. We've had 4 dates ... safe to say that i like him from what I have gotten to know about him thus far. I want to put it out there and tell him that I don't want to see other people and see how he reacts. I probably shouldn't say it though and wait for him to say something first, right?

Why have you got to wait for him?
4 dates isn't long enough for me personally to know it's that serious. I'm dating someone of a similar time line and 5 dates I think I will wait until I feel comfortable enough to bring it up and judge the atmosphere of our 'relationship'
I will probably go down that road if we have sex. We haven't yet but I don't want to have sex with someone who is having sex with anyone else (personal choice)

I think it's far too soon & likely to scare anyone off

I don't know whether this is in any way a normal outlook on this but NO WAY do I want my current dating partner to think I am all ready to settle down with him, I don't want us to stop putting in the effort with each other and actually don't mind the idea that we both don't know if there are other people on the scene. it makes me put in even more effort with him because if that conversation ever happens I want to know it's because we both really mean it not that we both felt kind of obliged to say it before we were ready.
I'm not going out of the way to keep mine on his toes and I don't mention other people and neither does he. We had this talk the other day about someone he works with who knows the last person her new partner had sex with and I laughed and said I will keep that information to myself and happy if he does too. I don't want to know that stuff I'm just enjoying the now

Yeah I'm just going to chill out and see how it pans out.
