I think we broke up? He won't talk to me

[Prettybones]

I've been in a long distance relationship for five months. For the past month my bf has been more distant, stopped calling me pet names, pretty much our communication has been less. On Friday he didn't text me back for a whole day, totally ignored my calls and texts. I sent an angry text that pretty much said I've been wanting to break up for months and I'm done. He texted me yesterday morning saying he was asleep and he's had a tough few days and he's sorry for everything. I told him we should talk and he said that everything's already been said and he doesn't want to argue. On my end I'm done. But he won't take my calls. I deleted his number because I'm not going to try anymore. I pretty much told him we can work this out and talk or he can be mature and we can break up over a phone call. I refuse to break up over a text it's childish. He still has said NOTHING to me. This just proves why it's ending. I just have no closure this way. He won't face me or talk to me which shows me he doesn't really care. I'm feeling lost and very confused. I honestly never thought this would happen over one fight. It's almost as if he wanted this deep down. I've been feeling like it was over but figured we could work through it. Any advice appreciated thanks

He didn't want to be with you anymore, and you ended it. You broke up with him via text.

 

There's nothing else to be done. I'm sure it hurts, but now you need to move on.

"he doesn't really care."<<< This, ten times.

I don't know about that. When you mentioned breaking up, he hurried texting you. I'm not sure if he did to get out of it with a conscience, not to look too mean... or because he didn't want to break up. All we know is he's not looking forward to talking to you over the phone or at all. What is sure is he's avoiding arguing on the phone with you. Maybe that happened already other times and it makes him sick. So he either wanted to slowly distance himself and break up, or just letting the moment go by and reach out to you later on.

 

Any advice appreciated thanks

Don't do anything. Don't be tempted to reply to any of his texts, if he sends any. If he does send a text, whatever the content is, let at least a whole week go by, as hard as it may seem. If he can't handle it, he will call and you will have a proper conversation with him. I think you deserve one, but only if it comes from him. Don't look for him anymore, and don't engage in any conversation with him by text, messenger, email and the like.

 

Stay strong.

Maybe he has nothing else to say? You've broken off the relationship and perhaps he doesn't want to go over every morbid detail of the relationship and just wants to get on with it. It's frustrating for you, but just give him space for now and don't contact him again.
