My ex boyfriend told me not to rush into relationships the day he broke up with me, does that mean he has plans to come back to me?

He broke up with me because he has a lot going on in his life and he didn’t want me to be a part of it and suffer with him. He’s still in college and graduating this year, he became the vice captain of the uni rugby team, he’s broke, he has some family responsibilities so he said he can’t commit 100% to me even-though I have told him from the day 1, keep me out of the equation and I will support him no matter what.

I told him I believe in him and he has a good potential and I know he will come to a good place one day. He said he has lost confidence about the future in terms of coming to a good place because the country we live in is so corrupted. We had few disagreements because he didn’t initiate a meet up and it was always me and when I asked he said because he’s broke. Sometimes he’s always with friends and I felt he’s not the same with me and when I started venting my emotions he felt so bad and said better stayed like he was (he was single for 5-6 years).

He said I deserve better. He said I’m the best and kind girl he has ever seen and I’m a little Angel. The day he ended it he cried so much and even I did in the end.

So do you think since he asked me not to rush into relationships that he has an intention to come back when he has his life figured out to give it a chance?

He can't have his cake AND eat it too. That's not how this works. It sounds like a cop out. A manipulative one at that. Sure, sometimes plates get full and some can't compartmentalize and prioritize so taking a step back to assess the situation and come up with a game plan happens...
but they don't drop their significant other who is their biggest support system and life partner in the process. Not for any good reason, anyway.

If he's ALWAYS with friends, why can't he make time for you? He can play rugby and do this and that and whatever else. But he breaks it off with the one person who will be standing there unconditionally and without a doubt? That goes to show that he doesn't see the true value in you.

And then on top of all that, he asks you to refrain from entering another relationship? Um.. he doesn't get to control what goes on in your life. DON'T LET THAT BOY STOP YOU FROM MEETING A GOOD MAN. A man that you'll never have to wonder what your place is in his life. A man that will not only see your value but uphold your value. Cut ties with this guy and move on with be your life. You will be super glad you did later on.

I hate when people think you should wait for them. Even to the rest of your life. When you could just find someone worth it, pretty soon.

Sounds like he wants you to wait for him
