I was w/ my bf for 2 months when he broke up w/ me. It has been 2 weeks since the breakup. I know that isn't a very long time but I am heartbroken and miss him SO much. The reason he wanted to end things was b/c things were moving very quickly and our feelings for each other were very strong in such a short amount of time. He said this really scares & overwhelms him. He is also in school full time and works part time. Things were working great but I think it all just got too much for him and he freaked out and got scared. Before me, he had been single for over 2 years and I think being w/ me took him out of his comfort zone. He also has issues w/ women and really has his guard up (his mom is mentally ill & is very needy of him, his dad is on his 3rd marriage and they have all been gold-diggers, his ex gf of over 2.5 years cheated on him and left him for an older rich guy). So I do understand why his defenses are up.

After we broke up I didn't know what to do... all I knew was I wanted him back. So I called and texted him A LOT w/ no response from him. Finally about a week ago I called again and we spoke. He said he wasn't ignoring me but he didn't know what to say. He said he really misses me and has really wanted to call me but has stopped himself from doing so. We talked for a while and made plans for that night and basically said we would try things again but take it slow. In the meantime he spoke w/ his brother and then called me and said he just couldn't do it and that if we are together he will neglect everything else in his life b/c all he wants to do is be w/ me. We talked again and he changed his mind again but then once again spoke w/ his brother and said he just couldn't. He wouldn't even agree to see me casually as he said if he sees me it will rekindle things and he will want to get back together.

I called him again a few days ago (blocked my #) and he picked up. We talked for a few mins and I asked him if he hated me and he said not at all. Says he just doesn't know what to say. He said me calling multiple times reminds him of his mom being needy and calling his dad (his mom has wanted his dad back for the past 27 years). He said this stresses him out and feels stressed out when we talk. He said he wants to relax on his hoidays the just got home for christmas and there for a few days). He said to call him in 3-4 days and said bye and hung up.

I googled "how to get your ex-bf back" today and found that I have been going about this all wrong. Everything I read said not to call and text and pretty much beg him for another chance. It said to LEAVE HIM COMPLETLY ALONE so that he has time to reflect and a chance away to miss me and miss the relationship.
I KNOW he feels strongly for me and we always had a great time together and the chemistry was amazing... we are both VERY attracted to each other! It is really just his fear that is standing in our way.
Now... I know NOT to try and contact him anymore. It does makes sense that he knows I'm always there pine-ing away for him... he may wonder why my calls have stopped and see there is a REAL risk of losing me. (or did I do too much damage)?
Please tell me what you think.... do you see him coming back..... ?
If you're still awake.... THANKS FOR READING AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
