<human>: I'll try to make things short. I've been seeing a guy for ~3 months and I really like him. I thought we were on the same page, but I recently had some doubts. So I was planning on talking to him about it the next time we met up. But instead, this happened...

We were both out drinking (separately) and we were texting each other whiile drinking. At about 2 AM as I was leaving the bars I dropped a hint that I thought he was only interested in me for sex. He vehemently denied this and he ended up calling me at about 3 AM. I was REALLY drunk and we ended up having a near hour long conversation about exclusivity in which I intimated that I want a serious relationship and he said "I'm not ready to be your boyfriend. I can't give you that." It was much more dramatic than it should have been, because we were both drunk, but he doesn't get REALLY drunk so I'm 100% sure I was much drunker than he was.

The next morning he said that he didnt want things to necessarily end but understood that we might want different things because he "couldn't give me any kind of assurance that [he would] be ready for a relationship in a specific timeframe" but that he was open to future exclusivity if it happened naturally.

I've done some soul-searching and here's what I want: I want things to stay the same with him, with that open door for exclusivity, while I also start to date other people again (this is OK with him). BUT I'm worried that I've fucked up things completely by having this conversation drunk and in a dramatic fashion. Is there no hope? Should I just try to move on? Or does the above "ideal" situation sound feasible/logical?

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Had drunken convo, was told by boy that he "isnt ready for a relationship" because of past relationship issues (was cheated on). Should I bother trying to salvage this/is it even salvageable?
