Of course this pain is normal, when you lose someone you love, it's the worst feeling in the world. But all I can say is that time is the greatest healer. Stay away from other people for a while, you know they won't make you happy until you're over this. Be careful not to let this harm future relationships too, not all of them will end up in this much pain.
But I do think you need to move on and not wait for this ex to 'make up his mind'. He maybe doesn't realise how much you are hurting and how much keeping you on a string like this is killing you. Move on and if he comes back, he comes back and if he doesn't, you'll be a stronger person anyway.
Hope this has helped, I just hope you're ok. I know it will get easier with time.
