It sounds like you are pushing for a commitment he isn't quite ready to make. Just some of the comments, like the maybe on exclusive dating. Yes, it is logical to us and actually sounds stupid to even ask for it but...
And the "I will tell you if there is someone else". I too have heard that. Honestly, I wanted to reply, why would you tell me when you lied about OW? but I can't say that either. You are trying to regain trust by getting him to show you in ways that you want, while he just wants to be given the opportunity to live and let you see that you can trust him. I also heard the "I don't want to be told what to do" thing. He is warning you that things could move in the other direction if you are not extra careful now. Please be careful.
"Acceptance doesn't mean resignation. It means understanding that something is what it is and there's got to be a way through it."--Michael J. Fox
