What if our separation was because he has been struggling mentally and emotionally and he's noticing that he isn't present so the best way now is to not continue with the relationship. I am really struggling đź’”

he pulled away before you could. that makes it even harder because it wasn’t your choice. i’ve seen that pattern before, people convince themselves it’s “for the best” but it just leaves the other person hanging with all the pain
mine told me he couldn’t give what i deserved, and i knew he meant it but it still felt like i wasn’t worth the effort. i cried every night for weeks, it was so hard to let that go
yeah mine said that too. like he cared but couldn’t “show up.” i just remember thinking if you actually wanted me you’d figure it out. it messed with my head for months
this is the exact reason me and my now ex bf went no contact this morning. he was not mentally stable and couldn’t find happiness in himself, and he was set on the idea that no contact and breaking up for a while was the only way he can overcome this feeling. trust me if it’s meant to be he will come back when he’s ready and better. he’s bettering for YOU so you two can thrive
Thank you for sharing this and changing my perspective. It's just hard going about the days knowing I can't really text him like before and everything. I'm really struggling, I've been crying every day of this past week and I feel sick every day. I don't want to feel like this anymore đź’”
@OpenHeart600 i 100% get you. i cry whenever i dont distract myself, like fully the past two nights ive had to sleep in my mums room just because if i don’t we know im going to be crying all night. if he comes back that’s great and you two need to have a long conversation about how he made you feel in this time. if he doesn’t come back you can’t do anything about it, as shitty as it sounds you have to wait and see what happens, and if it’s not the result you want it may take a while but moving on and learning to live with the void of him not being with you anymore is the only way you’ll feel just the tiny bit better. trust me i’m in the exact same boat not knowing if i should wait or not for this man
