My ex broke up with me after 8 months because he said he was unhappy with his life, and needed to figure things out on his own (he is 31 and I am 29). He said he still wanted to spend time together while he figured things out, and was open to getting back together after.
This went on for a month (hanging out together, talking, etc), and then I couldn't take it anymore. My heart was in such anguish wanting to be with him romantically, and it pained me to be so solid of my feelings for him and my wanting a committed relationship with him.
I started to cut him from my life by deleting him from the messenger on my phone. He went crazy when he found out - calling, texting, emailing, etc to find out why I was cutting him from my life (even though I told him earlier it would be hard for me to be friends with him). He cried on my voice mail, asking me what has changed and how he wasn't able to sleep because he can't stop thinking of me.
He came over to talk about this, and I told him how sad I have been and that I cannot live my life this way. He told me that he wants me in his life. I said I did too, but not like this. I am sad all the time. I told him I could never be just friends with him after the relationship we shared. I need to cut him from my life entirely, so that I can move on. I told him after this I would never contact him again. He asked if he could call me. I said no. He asked if we could talk in a few months. I said no. He said it made him sad because he wants me in his life, that we get on so well, and that we have such good talks together. I became so frustrated: that's what a relationship is!
He said he was also having a difficult time because another one of his friends was getting divorced and that was affecting him (his parents and family members are also divorced). So is he afraid of commitment?
I thought the meeting would be my closure, but instead, at the end, he asked me if he could have a "grace period" to think about and process everything I said and if he could call me.
It has been exactly one week, and I have not heard from him. What is going on?
He was not happy and he did not want to make you sad as well. If he's not happy with himself or his life then he can't make you happy. He loves you but doesn't want to leave you, but he knows its the right thing to do. When he sorts things out in his own life and things get better you two will get back together.
its the best for you that he didn't call so you can move on, he's not into the commitment thing. he said that to you but he came with lame excuse that his family history and all the B S. if someone is willing to put his time and effort to work things out all the way not getting scared from the first obstacle.
Thanksgiving is right around the corner and just like the last year and the year before, you will most likely spend it with your family. And just like everyone else, you have a crazy uncle or an...
