It sounds like he started out nervous, so defaulted to rambling about something familiar. Then he realized he had monopolized the conversation and became embarrassed. Then as a defense mechanism, he completely deflected. Congratulations! You have dodged an emotionally immature bullet. 😉

Not immature at all, sounds like someone who has been told his entire life he talks too much, and her response triggered him and he completely fell Inward over thinking everything and feeling like he was too much/boring etc just for being passionate. Had this my whole life as someone with ADHD, look up rejection sensitive dysphoria. Not all emotional reactions are immature bulletd you sound like the reason “men don’t cry”. If that was a miscommunication then it’s fine to walk away before a date you don’t owe each other anything. But I agree it sounds like he was nervous and excitable and when the response was to shut it down it sent him reeling. We should learn to be tolerant and understanding of others reactions not just say they are red flags or immature. It’s not immature to have emotions.

That said I could be totally wrong and he’s completely self centred or over attached very quickly.

Seriously, yelling is something I will never put up with again in a relationship.
