((((((((((((dolfin)))))))))))))) it's great to see you again! i'm sorry about the circumstance that you began posting about though.
i think this about his reaction...it was him, dear, not you. i think that he felt like he was caring and that it was moving too fast and, with his younger age, he has to blame you now, doesn't he?
i think alot of ppl freak and run when they start feeling something. i think he was feeling quickly and got scared. something tells me he's been burned pretty badly too, or he has a fear of strong feeling or commitment.
either way, it sounds completely like his issue. unfortunately, when one has an issue in a relationship, it affects both.

he also sounds like he might be a blamer or not at all in connection with his own emotion or feeling.
i would move on based on that. know in your heart of hearts it was his issue and keep on a walkin'.
i hope to see more of you.
