This guy that I'm dating is in his 30s and I'm in my 20s. We met on a dating app and hit it off pretty well. We would text each other daily, flirt, and he would be the one to initiate the conversation for most of those days. One night, I went over to his place for our first date as well as our second date. We cuddled, made out, and had sex on the first and second date. During our second date, I had too much to drink, which led me to the hospital. Things were kind of shaky between us after that situation, but we still talked. Throughout that time, I began to stress about losing him and worried that he was seeing someone else. He started texting me less and I began to initiate the conversations daily. What I did was apologize a lot and had asked for reassurance from him that things are still good between us. He came over to my place on the third date and we had a good time. During this date, we cuddled and talked rather than including sex. He had told me during that time that he felt like I was seeing this as a relationship and that I was taking things too fast. He told me that there seems to be a lot of pressure and "heaviness" to this and that dating is supposed to be fun. I felt bad about that, since this is my first time dating and I told him about that. I also told him that I would stop over-apologizing, asking for reassurance, be less of a people pleaser, and treat this dating experience as a fun thing and not a serious one. He told me that he thinks that we should take a step back and take things slow because of this. He also thinks we should take a step back and take things slow because of him engaging in a hobby throughout this year during the weekends along with working throughout the weekdays, which leaves him less time to spend with me.
He has said that he likes and accepts me for all that I am. He also said that he likes talking to me and being with me. I told him that I felt the same towards him. I told him that I would do my best to visit him once a month until summer comes around when we're able to both see each other more, and then continue that pattern of meeting once a month until this year ends. After that, we'll see what happens. He told me to just letting things come around naturally.
Update: After we had this conversation (above), the following day, he's been the one to text first and has been texting me more often than before.
Out of this whole situation, do you think that he is still interested in me? Does he still want to date me? Should I be worried about this outcome or will things be okay so far?
