Hey, I deeply trusted him, never questioned him. We're in a long distance relationship, for 3 years already; and we're closing it in 6 months. Also, we'll meet in August, things are already planned. But just recently, he deeply broke my heart. He told me he was considering breaking up in August, because he needs physical connection and he struggles to feel it. He told me he wants to check it if it's working and decide afterwards. I felt deeply betrayed, because I feel like an experiment participant for his senses. Plus, I have a very difficult situation in my life: my father got stroke, I left my job for studies, I gave my last cents to plane tickets to see him this summer, and he made this big surprise. He apologized afterwards, told me he made a mistake by telling me this, he cried in front of me and told me he loves me and wants to make sure if it's for long term and the doubts are natural (I agree here, but it was hurtful still to hear it now as I'm having a stressful week, preparing for a major university entrance exam in a week). I trust his guilt, but now I'm having doubts: will he be a strong back for me? I thought he was, he never failed previously and I did not expect this from him at all, I trusted him deeply. I feel like I need to break up now and see if he's for real telling me that he loves me. He always tells me he's so happy, he was telling me a day before that he was going to buy a house next year for both of us and was waiting for my test results.. And the day after this happened. My heart is shattering. Should I talk to him again or should I take a break/break up to see if he's really right for me? If not, what should I tell him to realize he damaged my trust towards him? I need to decide now, because I'm making major decisions in September to live in his country or somewhere else. I don't want to wait to know in August what will happen, it makes me suffer.
It's complicated, need help: Should I break up NOW?
