Did he really mean to break up?

Hi everyone! Happy New Year! So I was in a relationship with a guy for two years. In the first 9 months we had some problems basically because of me. I had some relationship OCD but got into therapy. He was understanding and very kind. The last year of our relationship we were so happy and in love. When he was looking at me , he had tears in his eyes and telling how lucky he is to have me in his life. I felt the same. He made me a better person and also I made him a better person. So we learned things from each other and grew better. But there was one thing. We knew since the beginning that he was gonna go abroad for his master's. And we agreed that I will follow him when he felt ready. we spend one month of heavenly holidays together this summer. It was as if we felt in love again. And on September he left abroad. We were crying like children. He said that I was his life and that he felt strong next to me. And that we would make it work. But after 10 days of distance , we had some issues. I grew a bit insecure and he felt pressured by everything. NOTE : it was it's first time away from his family.. And he broke up with me by the phone. When asked, he admitted he still loved me madly and missed me and that I made him happy. He didn't even let me go see him because he felt he couldn't take it. he was crying because a family member of his got sick and just couldn't take it anymore and that he needs to stay alone. He said he took this decision because it had been built up. Now it's been 4 months I still dream that he comes back. I have dated others etc. But I just can't lose hope. I can't get over him. It didn't make any sense. He was so happy. I know he was. We were like kids together. It made sense. There was so much love and compassion. He admitted to me and I could see it in his eyes. Why? Is there a chance this is just a phase?
