Search Results: boyfriend wanted space

Hi, I'm looking for some advice please 😊 I have recently broken up with my now ex boyfriend, due to a gambling problem, drinking issue, questioning my worth, financial issues and his negative attitudes and behaviours. He wanted me back and is saying he will make changes, I know he has quit gambling, not drinking as much and he's saying all the things I want to hear and have in my future and would do anything to have me back and saying it's me or no one.
I've been asking for the last 5 weeks since we broke up to give me space so I can decide if I miss him, he can implement these changes he is speaking of and I can have some alone time to decide if I do really miss him and want to try again. Thoughout these 5 weeks he has smoothered me, begging to take him back and telling me there is no one else, he will never date again, he wants to marry me, have a family and will support me and be a better person. he's even offered relationship counselling and said he will do anything to make it work.
Two days ago I said no let's call it a day I'm done I'm not willing to give it another go, his pushing for an answer was exhausting and it's was pushed me to say no I'm done. He has then done everything I asked yesterday stopped the messaging and then sent a quick one this morning to say he'd removed me from social media not to be petty or vindictive but for his own mental health. Since he's done that, I regret it he's never left my head, I can't stop crying and I feel sick. What should I do?

so i’ve never been in a relationship and i am 18 years old. I’ve always started things with people and ended up talking for about 3 weeks, then eventually cut things off because of the same damn reason: I want space and i don’t want to be cuffed.

The thing is that while this is my argument, being single is terrible for me too, i’ve always wanted to have a boyfriend and i always try to get one but something always feels wrong. I’ve been taught to always identify the constant in problems and in this one I think i’m it.

I’ve been speaking to a guy for about 2 weeks and i’m starting to want to use this argument and break things off. The thing is that i like him but he’s a little too intense for me (telling me he likes me every day, talking with me all the time and talking about seeing me a lot), should i risk my comfort in order to find out whether i even CAN have a relationship? Or should I break it off and try things with another guy that likes me and asked me out. Or should I just stop doing anything?
