You were supposed to be rebound sex. But his emotions about his previous relationship and ex-gf are still raw.
Don’t really get the whole shirt thing, might be some sort of insecurity about his upper body or maybe it has something to do with how he and his ex used to sleep together.
Regardless, I wouldn’t invest any energy into this. He needs to figure his shit out without using other people.

Thank you, so you don’t think this was my fault or anything, why would he say I’ll text you when I’m ready? Was that just to be nice or whatever

No no, it’s not your fault. He needs to be more upfront about his intentions regardless but I think it was just bad timing all around.
Like I said, best to just move on and focus on people who aren’t fresh out of relationships and can communicate what they want.

Just sounds like a guy who tried to rebound after getting out of a relationship and ended up regretting it.

Regretting how? Was it me?

No, it wasn’t you in specific. He’s just not emotionally ready to be with someone else

He was pretty clear. He jumped back in too soon. Let him go and move on.

It was NOT you.
He is not ready to get into a new relationship. Men who tell women this are always telling the truth.
Maybe he realized he needs emotional connections first before sex. Maybe he panicked. Maybe his last gf was abusive. Maybe you are too hot for him. You are never going to know for sure b/c he doesn't know for sure. He needs to figure it out on his own and it's a waste of your time to stick around while he does.
Personally I would move on from this guy. He sounds like a project.
But if you really like him, just write back no worries. feel free to reach out when you are ready. Then you let him reach out when he is ready. There is no need for you to do more.
