Question Did weed ruin my relationship?

Ill try keep this short...my ex has already had issues with insecurtys and anxiety before i came along. I did however come along and fell in love with in him.
He bites his nails and has the worst restless legs...they can go all the time. He used to hate going to gigs because of all the poeple etc even though he loves music.
Anyhoo...things get better between us and i dont care what bull he comes out with now we were happy and we do love each other. I went away for a week/ten days early sept and we missed each other sooo much he even spoke about spending the rest of our lives together, we laughed so much, just generally loved each other and had fun. He began smoking more...he went through a stage early on in the year when he went on a break with me and he was smoking so god damn much it just melted any rationality away and all he could focus on was his paranoia and insecuritys. This did not last long, we were back together within 4 days?! He stopped smoking as much and brilliant....then the past 4 weeks hes been smoking a lot and BANG here we go again...hes unsure about our future, he thinks us being apart will be better for us etc etc...i didnt argue i just packed his stuff up left on the doorstep and that was it. I txt him like a fool and heard nothing back but ill be honest i dont think he expected me to let him walk away, im not even sure he wanted me to let him walk away. Did this sudden change of heart have anything to do with him smoking weed again!? Any thoughts i would appreciate it...would mean a lot.

Thank you guys....hope your all well x

Yes, with the weed he probably felt chill and like he doesn't need you.

Since he is so nervous, maybe you are another form of stress for him at times.

Maybe the high of being with you is running out. My take.

I am willing to take that on board but bearing in mind i pretty much gave a lot up and adapted myself to suit his insecuritys etc i cant see how i would put more stress on him....still you may very well be right, im prob just really hoping your not!

so you primarily compromised yourself to be with him. Huge red flag.
Step back and see it from an outsiders point of view. Which in some ways you did describe yet I wonder if you see that you are feeding into his habits as acceptable.
