He broke up but still loves me. He just realised he wasn't over his last breakup. Is there a chance that he will come back?

He was out of a 12 years relationship. We started dating 4 months after his break up. He assured me he was ready. We clicked on so many level so fast. We were madly in love, making plans for the future, we want the same things long term, we were supposed to meet each other family.
Then I went back to France for a week. He told me not to worry, that he wasn't going anywhere. That week he saw her again as part of a group of friends. (He already had but nothing happened). I then came back, he told me he loved me and wanted to spend his life with me.
3 days later he broke up. Telling me that he saw her at the gig the week before and realised he was not over her. That he didn't process the breakup properly and shouldn't have gotten in a relationship or dating that soon. That he needs time to be on his own, single and learn to love himself.
2 days later he sent me a text telling me that he loves me but that, for now, it's not good for either of us and that maybe our paths will cross again in the future.

I don't know what to do. I'm completely lost. I love him so deeply and I know he loves me too. I've never felt that kind of connection with anyone. The thing that hurts is that he's not even sure he'll come back when I know we can have a beautiful future together. He even told me the same before everything happened. I know he's my person.

I'm 32. He's almost 35. I had my fair share of failed relationship and toxic exes. I now know when I've met a good person.

I wouldn't get back with him. He basically used you as a rebound without saying it. Last thing you ever want to be. Don't be anyone's second option.
There's a possibility he will try to get back with that her, therefore let them be and step out the way to keep your heart at ease.

I had an ex like that years ago that pulled the whole "I just need to be single" thing out of no where for no reason at all. He came back 5 years later trying to talk to me but had admitted that right after we broke up, he met someone. He winded up marrying her and even having children with her.

You deserve better, queen👑

At least he knows himself enough to tell you he was not ready. Most guys just trail you along until they can decide or the other gal denys them.
I say hold on to your hope but it would help to move on and start dating others.

[Wise4myage]

Yes, their is always s chance, but start dating other guys and don't sit around waiting for him to come back.

It’s best to find someone new, rather than being someone’s backup or 2nd choice.

[bones_20]

Why would you even want him to come back?
You really don’t want someone like that.
