What does it mean when he needs his "space"?

Question

I've been dating this guy for 2 yrs. We live together & I thought everything was fine until I recieved a change of address form with his information on it in the mail. When I confronted him he stated, "I need some space to figure things out."

So he moved most of his stuff out of the house. Later on that night, he called me almost a hundred times until I turned off my cell & took the house phone off the hook. He keeps saying he wants to come back. I don't understand how you can ask for space & then be wanting to come back so soon.

So yesterday I asked him to leave his key & said that we should try to not talk or see each other for awhile to figure out what we both want. He refuses.

I don't know what step to take now since I've been heartbroken since this happened. I want him to come home but I'm also beyond pissed for his actions & now have trust issues that I never had in our relationship. Is this relationship worth keeping or should I cut my loses & move on?

Answer 1

Two years is a long time in a realtionship. He likey got scare that he would be in just this realtionship forever. So he thinks he will get some space and live up the single life again. however, the single life is not so great. So he quickly decides that he wants the rlationship back.

Is he worth it? Sure, mostly. If this is the worst thing he has done.
