He asked me if i was dating other guys, so i aswered him honestly and told him i was but it was only afterwards i realised that i may have hurt his feelings if he still liked me. I still like him and i would like to take things further someday, but have i blown my chances? Reply to this Question

I dont feel the need for exclusivity at this point, but is it normal for him to bring up such topics of conversation if he did like me? And do you think i should continue to be honest in my response? I dont want to appear to be insensetive and i can be tactless at times.

 Ask yourself why you should feel the need to be exclusive with him at this point. By stating your intentions you are being honest with him and not giving any false impressions.
He could either give up or ramp up his game to gain your affections.
Any person that expects or maybe even demands exclusivity at such an early stage smacks of possessive behavior. Do keep that in mind.
In all guard your feelings and respect those of others - and by all means enjoy your dating experience.
