Was this guy just plain crazy and needy?

I would not have gone out with this man just based on that. It scares me when l look at men's profiles aged 40ish + and their longest relationship is 2-3 years. I don't engage with them.

Yes agree, not a good sign. A sign of being emotionally unavailable or something worse. We were not on the same page. I told this experience to my mom and she said you need a mature man instead, that went through similar experiences than you, also knows what it is to be a parent. I agree.

All you can do is try to see if there were any warning signs that you overlooked.

You seem to have successfully identified a few so now you can take that knowledge with you moving forward.

Early warning signs:

- He overshares 

- His last relationship was 12 years ago and only lasted 2 years

- He offered to pick me up in his car for our first date and found it weird I didn’t accept and joked about that

All the rest I identified later.

Yes I’ll do that thanks.
