Please help!! Does he need more time or does he not like me?

A female age 30-35, anonymous writes:

We were friends with benefits for months but i couldnt handle just having a sexual relationship. I told him and he asked me to be his girlfriend. He even introduced me to his friends as his gf and we made plans that day. But then he broke them and said that now he feels pressure about hanging out with his "girlfriend" and started freaking out about this new label of boyfriend/girlfriend and he said he didnt even know me as a friend. He kept calling me just to talk and I told him that if he wants space, I will give it to him and he said that he does. But the next day, he made plans to hang out and he said that he doesnt want to lose me and wants to keep hanging out with me to get to know me and see if he wants me as a girlfriend. When he comes over, he is really sweet and he said that we shouldnt have sex anymore. I went away for the weekend and he hasnt called me for 3 days. I dont know what to do, should I call him? I dont want to sound needy or pressure him. Does he just need more time to get used to this new arrangement or am I just stupid and he really doesnt like me?
