He says he doesn't have any feelings because of stress. Is it over?

Hi guys!

I met this guy 3 months ago. We fell in love, madly and deeply. It was the perfect romance, passionate, open, secure... We understood each other and everything flowed effortlessly. He lives in another country, but he decided to move to where I live and start a business here. I was meant to help him and work for him. We started registering a company and looking for apartments for him.

Then he had to leave to his home country for work for some weeks. I visited him there once and saw that he was under a lot of pressure and stress, looking very tired and worn out. He was meant to follow me shortly after I returned home. Then he told me he felt really bad and wanted to have some time alone to recover before he came to see me again. He asked me to help him find a remote place where he could spend some weeks alone. I helped him rent a holiday home in Holland. He stayed there for a while and then came to me as promised.

We spent 5 days living together, but this time he wasn't emotionally available at all. We didn't even have sex, although we slept together and embraced each other. I started freaking out because I didn't know what was going on and made the mistake of asking him if everything was OK with us. He explained to me that he was going through emotionally challenging time because of work and his health issues, which I know is really true. Later that night after I asked him to embrace me, he told me he didn't feel anything for me right now. He left on business the next day, almost fainting because of his health issues and stress he is under.

He still plans to come and live in my city and work together with me. The plans to rent an apartment for him are not cancelled.

It wasn't quite a break up, but it felt like it, talking that nothing changed between us except that the inspiring feeling that makes you feel like flying is gone.

I love him and want him back not only as business partner. My question: is it over now or is there a possibility that he rediscovers his feelings after a while spent alone and away? Is there anything I can do to inspire him to reconsider? What is the best way to do so? Should I call sometimes or stop calling at all?

I really appreciate your help and opinions!
