sounds like you took things too slow and he found someone else. Crappy way of not telling you but be honest with yourself, did you really see a future with him? I can't read much excitement for him out of your post.
Well I met him at my old job about a year ago. I gave him my number but at the time I was still dealing with a bad break up with a ex of mines so he would text me and I would text back very little and eventually I just went ghost. Kind of afraid of getting too close to someone again. Fast forward to the summer he got back in contact with me. Apparently he never got rid of my number and once again I still wasn’t quite comfortable with talking to a guy again so it started off smooth until I ghosted him again. Months passed and I didn’t think anything of him until he contacted me again in February and asked why I kept disappearing and I explained to him that he wasn’t the issue but my past relationship made me eery of dating again and he acted as though he understood so for once I actually gave him a chance. We hung out a few times and like I said I gradually got to know him which all led to this particular situation. Now I regret not doing what I did to him all the other times. Just keeping my distance and protecting my feelings.
I know. I get he wasn’t a prize and I dodged bullet but I feel like it always takes longer to feel better about yourself and stop feeling like you’re aren’t good enough, attractive enough etc when things like this happen but I’m okay. I would have been more embarrassed if I blew up his phone to the point that he had to block me or something because I just didn’t get the hint. I Just deleted his number and I’m gonna try to not let this happen again.

I think that's smart.
You'll be doing REALLY well when you get to the point that you don't let this kind of interaction with one player affect your own self-worth.
Seriously - do you really WANT a guy like this to determine if you are good enough and attractive enough? That's something you have to know and believe about yourself. You can't leave that up to any yard dog who pays attention to you every once in a while.
Next time, pay attention to your gut. You ignored it early on with this guy, and it came back to bite you. Next time, don't fall for it.
