What Should I Do?

I’ve never loved someone like, “I see a real future with you”... until HE came into my life. We had been talking for a couple weeks before we decided to try dating. (We talked a few years back, but I never told him I liked him and then he just shut me out.) I used to have a major crush on him. His exes lied and cheated on him. I didn’t know that until he basically shut me out for basically 24 hours, and then came clean about him not being ready. I understand it’s a lot to go through, and I don’t like coming off as pushy. It’s just that, when we talked a few years ago, he just ghosted me and got with someone else. Our lives are different from three years ago, but it still hurts to see the cycle repeat itself. I’m down to wait for him to be ready, but I’m afraid that he’ll just move on again. Any advice would be appreciated
