Just broke up

If you feel afraid he will come back and do the same then its best to move on. Most people end up still having feelings after a brake up, so no worries because it seems like a normal thing that happens a lot. Did you ask him what he is confused about? That's the start to figure out what's going on through his mind.

The first few days of a breakup are always difficult. It's normal to still feel some kind of emotion towards the other person. What I suggest is just giving him some time and trying to take your mind off of it and engaging in some fun productive hobbies.

You must be going through a million different emotions; many of which are pulling you in different directions.

All I can offer is my opinion. (Take that for what it is. I have virtuallyno experience in dating!)

If your boyfriend broke up with you, but still needs 'time and space' to sort things out could you ever get over the fear that he is going to do this again?

I'm a weak person I guess. Once I don't trust or believe in someone it's for good. It's not that I don't trust them! It's just that what little predictability is forever gone. My fears get the best of me. I don't want to be around people whom I cannot trust. Even at fifty years old and a couple of master's degree and lots and lots of post-graduate work, I don't know how to talk or act around people I no longer 'trust'.

You have to ask yourself, "should I wait forhim to make a decision?" That is up to you. Perhaps I am readingway too much into this and I'm totally off base! ignore this post or even tell me to stop projecting my shortcomings onto you! (That's a nice way of telling me to go to hell.) You can do that too! I'm a big boy; I can take it.

Set yourself a time to grieve You can always push it back if need be. It is a major loss in your life! Please try to be kind, compassionate, and patient​ wtthyourself. You do deserve.

I hope you find the strength to get by the next few days / weeks. Try and allow yourself to get the necessary help in order to heal.
