Breakup

[Schnapps]

Right, so here's the deal:

My boyfriend broke up with me several nights ago, because I have been affected by depression badly these last couple of weeks. This mainly caused because I'm not happy with my living situation and feeling very lonely. ( He lives abroad, so it was a long distance relationship. )
He broke up because he couldn't handle me anymore and didn't know what to do about it.

Now though, he's been acting pretty much exactly as before. He skypes me every day, plays online games with me, etc. He also hasn't removed our FB relationship status.

Today he asked if I was okay with us being friends. I told him I'm not really sure about that yet and that I needed some time to see how I like this.
When I asked him if this is how he preferred it, he said yes.

He does however still call me honey and as I said, things are very similar to before. Like a relationship without the tag; the commitment.

Truth is, I'm struggling. I feel like we could've been so much more than we ever got chance to be. Our relationship was only just blooming and it feels like he left me out in the cold on the first sign of it not going well.

Yet part of me really still wants him. I want to move obroad so I can be closer to him, see if we can make things work that way.

But I don't know what he thinks about any of this.

What hurt me alot was the fact that he simply said 'Ok' to me saying ' I'm not sure if we can remain friends for long. It's quite hurtful because I still love you so'

Another part of me thinks it's probably for the best and it reminds me of the saying: If he cant handle her at her worst, he doesn't deserve her at her best.

Anyway, I'm hoping anyone can give me his/her view on this. It'd be greatly appreciated.

you are right, if he can't handle your depression from another country then it's best to let him go, be brave.
