We were dating for 2.5 months, started as friends and quickly became close. We have a very deep connection, incredible time together, etc. my birthday he pulled out all the stops, we spent the weekend together and had a blast. Then right before he was supposed to meet up for a friends bbq the next day, he texts and says he’s in a terrible mood and wants alone time. Then ghosted me for a week. Once we finally met to talk; he dumped me- saying he likes me SO MUCH, but he can’t commit knowing my last relationship is still so recent and he’s afraid I’ll go back to my ex, and he thinks that I need space to get more past my ex. These are ridiculous assumptions being that I’ve never expressed missing or still loving my ex. At the same time he says “I was ready to commit fully and I didn’t feel like you were into it as much as I was”. He also would be always asking me to let him be there for me, and be a shoulder to cry on— which I did do here and there— but my issues I’ve opened up to him about never engulfed our relationship. With all this contradiction I am so confused. What does this sound like is the issue?
He dumped me out of the blue, why?
