ok, so my boyfriend broke the news to me that he couldn't deal with a long distance relationship right now. He told me that the reason is because the whole traveling thing is in order to find himself, he doesn't know who he is and he said that he just can't deal with the emotions that come with a long distance relationship. He said that while he's traveling he still wants to be friends and still wants to talk and that when he comes home he wants to work on the relationship, but as of right now he just can't do it.
I asked him if he still had feelings for me and he said yes, of course i do, and I eventually want to work this out. So I told him that i didn't understand that if we both had feelings for each other, how anything would change from us being in a relationship to us being "just friends" since the conversations are still going to show that we both have feelings for each other. He said that he doesn't know and he has to think about it.
I just don't know what to think right now, like I don't know how to explain to him that the only thing that will even change is the title, and why he can think that if he still cares about me and loves me and wants to eventually be together, why he thinks that being friends would be any different. He and I decided to sit down and really talk through it on Tuesday, but I just don't know what to tell him. I love him so much and I really don't want to lose him, and I just have no idea what is going on... I'm so lost.
