I know its hard when he doesnt have a phone, but he could very well use someone elses phone if he REALLY wanted to just to drop me a text.If he doesn't call me today, is it over? I know he needs his space but I would still appreciate a text or something.

Hi there,
It's important not to think the worst of his lack of contact.
There could be many things that have stopped him, one being that he got tied up and wanted to phone you yet ran out of time and other things that he may very well tell you when you do hear from him.
His regular calling prior to this needs to be commended considering he doesn't have a phone.
Expecting him to text from someone else's phone could present some embarrassment for him.
If he doesn't call, I suggest to find out a way to contact him and with that contact tell him you missed hearing from him and wanted to phone to hear his voice.
What makes you think he needs space? Has he said this?
Believing in your relationship and his feelings for you would be beneficial and instead of placing negative worst case scenarios on why he hasn't made contact is only putting yourself through hell, more information is needed to be thinking this way.
Discussing with him about getting his own phone would be helpful so you can have that contact.
Good luck.

NO! One day doesn't mean that you're over. Even a few days probably doesn't. Sometimes people need their space...which means that they simply don't want to talk or hang out for a day or a few days. If it turns into weeks with absolutely nothing, then yes, he could possibly be trying to take the cowardly way out of the relationship.
Leave him be, he'll appreciate that you're okay not hanging on to him 24/7 and that you're allowing him to have some space. In the meantime, do something you like to do, obviously that's what he's doing. You have to have your own life outside of a relationship as well.
