He does understand why I would be hesitant and that moving slow is a must if we are to try again.
If he doesn't understand why you are skittish, then he needs more therapy. No matter, don't rush it.

+1. If you like him yes I’d give it another chance. Once. And slowly.

I bet you haven't have any meaningful relationships since, if at all. That's why you jumped at his asking for a dinner date.
Give it another go. It's not like you have a better option.

But simply saying isn't doing. Take your time and make room for the truth. If he tries to rush or come on too strong, that's a red flag. If he doesn't understand your hesitation, that's also a red flag.
+1 to all of this. How old are you OP and how old is he?

Would you give this another chance? The first go round I felt like we would grow old together. Breaking up really hurt.
Nope, huge red flag. He'll hurt you again. You can do better.

I would. If the same thing happens this time, then never again, but give it a go if you still like him.

Timing is like 80% of why relationships make it or don't. There is no rule here and it is entirely impossible to know if you should give it another chance.
It does sound like you want to, so go ahead. I give you permission. Just don't rush into anything.
