Aitah for taking not exlusive seriously?

I am 37f am in a situationship with a 35m. He from the beginning said he does not want to be exclusive. That's fine we know what we are then. The problem is I think since we aren't exclusive we don't need to talk every day and we are both open to seeing other people. He says we shouldn't date at all if we have eachother but we are not exclusive? Just want to know if I am the asshole I already this won't work out.
