Exactly - A gets first opportunity because you have a handshake deal. If he doesn't deliver his end of the bargain, it's an open market again. It also doesn't mean you can't continue to show the house explaining that there's already an offer on it and he has a very short duration first right of refusal.
This to me is a very simple situation that is getting overcomplicated for you by web philosophers.
