Search Results: taking a break relationship

So my ex and I were together for 5 months in college. We were planning on taking a break over the summer because we live a few hours away from each other and both don't like long distance, then get back together next semester. However with this Corona Virus, we had to leave for home earlier than expected so we decided to talk.

He said that he doesn't think he wants a relationship right now because he has always been a relationship guy and wants to experience what it's like to be single. He made it very clear it wasn't to see other people (he isn't the random hookup type AT ALL) he just wants to focus on himself. He also said he wasn't making me a priority and that he doesn't feel like putting time into a relationship if he's going to half ass it (he takes relationships very seriously). But he told me he hasn't lost feelings. So coupled with all that and the fact that we would be hours apart for 6 months, we decided to break up.

He has told me multiple times that there is a possibility of getting back together next semester, and he has promised me we would stay friends too. We still text and snapchat every single day, not a lot, but enough. We are also planning on visiting each other over the summer too. Plus we agreed that if we both still wanted to hooking up was on the table, my idea.

We both DO NOT want to date someone from home so we will both be single next semester... Do you guys think that he is being honest and that we will get back together or is he just sparing my feelings? I would really appreciate it if you guys could give me your opinion because I'm overthinking everything. :(
