You are young and i am afraid that this can and does happen. Let him have the space and back off. Let him have all the freedom that he needs and dont go running after him. You were looking forward to spending time together, well, sorry to say this but it isnt going to happen that way. Just put it down to experience and grow from it. You will be ok, believe me, it has happened to me. At the time i thought the world was falling in around my ears and i would never survive, but you do. There are millions of gorgeous guys out there and you do deserve better, one who is going to be committed solely to you and doesnt need space! Walk away with your head held high and if he wants to come back, because he sees how confident and strong you are without him, then tell him to buggar off.

Take care and enjoy life to the full, not the misery!!

superbunny agony auntSounds like you're hurting quite a bit, sugar, which is completely natural. But the thing is him wanting space means exactly that, but you need to work out between you what's best for the pair of you. Don't be messed around though, sweet, if he just wants to play around or something then don't stand for it, but if he just means to slow things down a bit between you then you need to decide if that's something you're prepared to do - but you do need to chat to him. Hope it all works out for the best. :] x
