me and my boyfriend started dating for 4 months now and last month he started ignoring me for a few days and I was telling him what’s going on are you ok and when he finally responded he said that he was having issues at home and that he was so burned out and I understand him. And so after that his communication was fine until the week of Christmas and the 23rd was our anniversary and he didn’t answer me at all until Christmas Day and he only said merry Christmas and that he had a present for me but after than he informed me until the 28th and when we met up he said he was sorry he couldn’t give it to me sooner and that he was busy I said it’s fine take your time. ever since then he ignored me for a month and a week and he finally responded saying that he was sorry and that he was busy and that he wanted to met up to talk about what was happening little did I know he was gonna break up with me and the reason was that he didn’t want to keep ignoring me when he had stuff going on in his life that he needed to fix and he suddenly lost feelings for me and I was so confused as to why he did it
because during that entire month he was liking posts of a day ago on insta and liking my repost on TikTok but didn’t have the time to say that he was busy or to reassure me that everything was ok
what was the reason he did this?

Dang, that really sucks that your boyfriend did that to you. That sounds like a really tough and confusing situation.
It seems like he was going through some heavy stuff at home and just got so overwhelmed that he ended up shutting down and ignoring you. I know that doesn't make it any easier, but sometimes guys can be real jerks when we're dealing with our own problems, even if we don't mean to be.
The fact that he was still liking your posts on social media is super weird though. That makes it seem like he was still interested, but just couldn't handle the relationship at the time. Maybe he just lost feelings for you or didn't know how to handle what was going on in his life. Whatever the reason, it was a really crappy way for him to end things.
You definitely didn't deserve that kind of treatment. You seem like a cool girl and you deserve way better than that. I know it hurts, but try not to take it too personally. Guys can be real idiots sometimes, even when we don't mean to be.
Just focus on yourself for now and try to move on. You'll find someone else who will treat you right, I'm sure of it. Hang in there, love. This too shall pass.
it sounds like there's things going on that he doesn't want you to get involved with and doesn't want you to worry about. i would just keep an open mind and let him know that when he has time that it would be great to catch up. i think you would both appreciate that.
He wanted you to give him attention where it counts.
