Does he want to get back together or he just couldn’t find another girl?

I broke up with the guy I have been seeing for almost 4 months. I am in love with him but I walked away for some reasons. I wrote a long message and ended there. It’s been almost a week and he texted me and wanted to meet me at a restaurant. I met him and we talked and he apologized. Said he read my long message three times but was unsure of what to say to me without causing me further hurt.

We had a long talk and he told me made an account on a dating site the day after we broke up. He had talked to one woman and it did not work out. He said he thought more about what he wanted with a woman and that when he thought about I came to mind. That everything he wanted I had. He told me missed me and thought about me but again didn’t think I ever wanted to talk to him again and didn’t want to hurt me further.

Guys, is it normal after a breakup you go on dating sites to try and move on seek validation or get an ego boost? I made a dating account only a week after we broke up as a way to push him out of my thoughts (not the healthiest way to cope but it’s what I did). Can a guy really realize what he lost when he starts to talk to other women or do you sometimes return to a relationship because it’s easier?
