AIO: I went on one date with this guy and don’t think I want to go on another

So for context: I went on a date with him on Saturday and it was really nice. This is the first date I have been on in over a year. I have been really uninterested in dating since my last LTR ended poorly. I have been out of the dating scene and he seemed sweet, so I figured it was worth a shot. We are classmates and will most likely have classes together in the future because we have the same Major.

We had a long lasting phone call the night after our date and he dumped some pretty heavy life stuff on me (trauma), but it was cool with me and I welcomed it even though it seemed pretty early on to do that (imo). That is what he is referring to when he talks about oversharing.

He had been a little overbearing once before, but it didn’t bug me at all. This night in particular, I had been out with friends and didn’t get home until pretty late. When I am with my friends, I rarely check my phone and I didn’t take the time to read through is paragraphs and answer each question individually, which spurred more paragraphs and questions (even tho he said he understood that?). I am not much of a social butterfly, so I was already feeling pretty drained. He just kept talking, even after I told him I wanted to sleep. Something about how paranoid and overbearing he is when we have only gone on a single date rubs me the wrong way and I don’t think I want to see him again.

Am I being a bitch? I feel guilty. Do you think this will be repeated behavior and should I stop seeing him? If this is what dating is like, I am not sure I have the energy for a relationship.
