Break Up & Divorce

How do I proceed with him?

Hey all, I recently wrote about being “ghosted” for the past 2 weeks. I reached out to him, and he messaged me saying that he thought I was cheating on him (I can see now why he thought that). He said that he was so ashamed of how he felt about me, in that he was surprised in how much it affected him.

He called me last night and we have been messaging (sporadically) When I thought he was ghosting me, I basically deleted him off all my social media (he said this really hurt him). Me deleting him off social media, made him think I was cheating even more so.

He was quite emotional on the phone, said the past 2 weeks for him have been hell, that he was embarrassed with how he felt as he cared for me so much, and that when he thought I was cheating that I made him feel worthless, and that he hasn't been able to focus.

Im at a stage now where I don’t know how to proceed with this. I won’t see him for over a month as he’s working away, so it will give us both time to think.

I really want to work on things with this man, but I don’t want to push him away further by opening up communication too much. My plan is to work on myself (gym etc) and focus on myself until he is back, and I told him the ball was in his court.

I've apologised for my actions (why he thought I was cheating), and he apologised for not opening up earlier.

Where do I go from here, and any advice on how to proceed would be welcome
