Why would my ex need space two months after he dumped me?

[Blondy21]

My ex dumped me and now two months later still says he needs space/time.
He said he doesn't want to lose me, nearly cried when he said this. I recently suggested I think it'd be fun if he joins me to go to my horse. He agreed and said he would like to and we could go sometime soon only to follow up a week later saying how he needs time. Vague, but ok. I just don't understand why he would still need more space, I don't want to get back together and made this known to him, because he has some growing up to do but I do still love him and care for him. Since I felt he was playing games I blocked him.

It's difficult to say for certain why your ex may need space two months after he dumped you, as everyone's reasons and motivations for needing space can vary widely. However, here are a few possibilities:

1. He may be struggling with his feelings: Even if he was the one who ended the relationship, he may still be struggling with his feelings and need time to process and sort through them.

2. He may be feeling overwhelmed: It's possible that he's feeling overwhelmed by the idea of seeing you again or spending time with you, and needs some space to regroup and recharge.

3. He may be feeling guilty: If he ended the relationship and is aware of how much it hurt you, he may be feeling guilty and need some time to come to terms with his own emotions and actions.

Ultimately, the best way to understand why your ex may need space is to communicate openly and honestly with him. Try to have a conversation about his reasons for needing space and how you can both move forward in a way that feels respectful and healthy for both of you.

If you feel that he is playing games or being unclear about his intentions, it may be necessary to set boundaries and take some space yourself. Remember, you deserve to be with someone who communicates openly and honestly with you, and who respects your feelings and boundaries.
