Don't blame yourself or your kids, he just wasn't ready for a full on commitment. I've been in the same situation as you when an ex said to me 'If it wasn't for your kids I would've moved in by now.' Sorry mate but my kids always come first. I'm very wary now with any new partner and always make sure I've been dating for at least 6 months before I introduce them as a friend, not boyfriend to my family. Then at least no-one gets hurt and the kids don't get used to him being around and part of their lives. It takes a special,caring genuine man to take on a woman and her children,but they are out there and you will find happiness when the right person comes along.

I would have to question his commitment to the relationship, however you need to consider giving him the space he needs.
You need to talk to him and find out where he sees this relationship going, as you need to find a balance. he cant expect you to be happy with just text message, where before your contact was so much more.
You need to find out his intentions with you and see if there is a chance you can work this out together.
