Brad & I started long-distance dating through an online app in Nov 2023. He met me in person in Feb. I managed to move closer to his city because of school from March-June, so once I came, we began living together & he proposed to me in May. I didn't share this info with my family since they're crazy. A school situation happened where I got dismissed, so my sister came to move me back home in June. She met him for the first time & didn't like him for different reasons. She said I had no choice but to come home since my mom had heart issues & needed me. Brad didn't want me to go, so I told him to meet my family & we all left the following day.

My family didn't like him since he was focused on taking me back to his home & not caring about my mom needing me/my school situation. I decided to stay with family & Brad disliked that since he hoped I'd leave that day. He left & gave me a hard time about my decision since then. My mom said she plans a Sept party where I can move back in with him more honorably than if I just left. Brad didn't want to do it, but I did. We waited until Sept & then I discovered my mom lied. She hoped we'd break up by now since she didn't like him. I fought with her about it, she apologized, & now booked the venue in Nov by showing me confirmation. She even talked with his parents for the first time about this as well so they can see if she keep her word. Brad now feels distrust with her & said if I didn't leave my home by the end of the month, then he'd end the relationship even though he's not going to help me leave here truly. I told him if my mom started to do anything fishy before Nov, I'd leave, but it didn't make sense to end the relationship over something like this, especially since I planned to visit. He sent me a goodbye/breakup text last night and goodnight. I texted him a couple of texts, but he hasn't responded. Do you think he's taking time to think and will reply soon? Or do you think he's ghosting me? I don't want to lose him :(
