Did I overreact?

Hey yall! I want to see if I jumped the gun & misread these vibes I was gettingā€¦

Backstory: I SB(28 F) went on a couple of platonic dates or ā€œmeet & greetsā€ with an SD(50 M). We had a great time (I thought) both times.

We texted for quite a bit leading up to our first date. I enjoyed his patience & how much he appreciated my straightforwardness. During this time we discussed schedules. I work a 9-5, go to the gym, and have night classes so Iā€™m mostly only free nights & weekends. He mentioned a few times that he makes his own schedule (own business). He also seemed to text me a lot, would double text me if I didnā€™t respond within an hr or 2, would tell me good morning & good night etc.

First initial meet & greet, we went on a simple dinner date, he offered a gift & I politely said itā€™s not necessary. We negotiated a substantially generous allowance. I was happy with it, his appearance, and his personality. We seemed to get along very well & I was excited to see him again.

Our 2nd date was last Saturday & also non-sexual but a bit more intimate. we spent the entire evening together, went to a festival, I visited his home, we both agreed to move forward with the arrangement. Had a bit of a disagreement on ppm vs allowance to start (I donā€™t do ppm & wanted to start off with an allowance) he eventually agreed to do it my way. We also agreed that heā€™d gift half my allowance during our first arrangement date.

We ended it with us trying to plan out when weā€™d see each other again and agreed that next Saturday was too far to wait but itā€™ll do if we need to. (He lives 10 min away from me btw)

The next day he texted me & itā€™s like his demeanor had changed. He has problems communicating through text, heā€™s a lot more humorous sarcastic in person. But this felt different. He tells me heā€™s too busy the entire week & Saturday will have to do. I was a bit bummed & confused because he makes his own schedule & I told him I enjoyed overnights previously, but I accepted & was ok with it. He then went 2 days without texting me back which is why I ultimately asked him if he was still interested in text above.

Then today tells me his plans got moved around & makes no effort to try to reschedule & just feels like a full on flake move in my eyes & so I responded with Iā€™ll move on from this in text above. Iā€™m so curious on if you guys feel I over reacted or if I was right in the way this was going?

Btw I donā€™t plan on trying to salvage this at all, I donā€™t ever want to feel like Iā€™m chasing a man for effort. Iā€™m just curious of yā€™allā€™s opinions. Thanks for those of you who took the time to read my long ass winded post lol šŸ¤£
