I know I need my distance from my ex for now. I am not ready to be with him. I just don't know. I know there could be a chance in the future. He broke up with me because he said he felt he controlled my life. I know that our relationship was not perfect but we were together for 2 and a half years. I had a promise ring and it felt right. I will say what was wrong...he is used to being in control of things in his life and we had our differences but we never really worked on things. He was afraid to tell me when he was upset because he felt that it would upset me. This was our relationship the last few months. He said he broke up with me because he felt I deserved better. He felt he did way too much for me and I didn't do enough for myself and because we had not dealt with our feelings our love changed. I still love him so much but I know I need space from him. I was texting him and I knew I was not ready. He said he misses me and wants to see me but he made his decision. I know I have to respect that. It's just hard. I KNOW we are not getting back together right now and even if I wanted to I could not right now. I guess the future will tell. If we are meant to be it will happen. Right now I need to focus on me and my life. I can only text him and see him when and if I feel ready!
