Hey everyone, I could really use some advice! 😩

Last year, I was dating a wonderful man. We had an incredible first and second date, and after our second outing, we spent the night together (nothing intimate happened). I shared some thoughts that I believe might have overwhelmed him. He later mentioned that I came on too strong, which might have scared him off. Since then, we hadn't really communicated for about four months. At my friend's birthday party, I reached out to him, but I reacted poorly when he didn't want to drive over an hour and a half to pick me up. In a moment of frustration and under the influence of alcohol, I said I would find someone else to meet me, and that ended our conversation. Now, I’ve been working on some past trauma in therapy and was encouraged to apologize to those I may have hurt. I reached out to him, expressing my regrets and thanking him for being honest instead of ghosting me. He responded kindly, just like he did before. He congratulated me on my personal growth and made me smile, which was a nice surprise. It's been three days since that exchange, and I can’t stop thinking about him. I'm unsure how to proceed. I want to avoid coming on too strong again, but I genuinely like him. When we spoke initially, he mentioned wanting to take things slow and see where they led, and I would love a second chance to pursue that. However, I'm unsure of the best approach now. How can I reconnect with him without being overwhelming? What steps can I take to rekindle our connection?
