He's backed off and become distant. Should I wait this out?

A female age 51-59, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend of 6 months has backed off and gotten distant. Our kids are not getting along-he says he loves me but when we have our kids he wants to keep them apart for a little while. When I tried to tell him about my feelings and how I wasnt feeling important to him anymore--and that I needed 100% of him in this relationship, he said I was stressing him out by being needy and clingy. We had been together alot before the past two weeks, and a week ago he told me he loved me and wanted to make it work. Unfortunatly I was feeling low and proceeded to tell him what I needed from him in the relationship. Well-We have both had the kids this Thanksgiving weekend and we havent seen each other. He calls once or twice a day- But hasnt said when we would see one another. We have no kids tomorrow or the next day- do I wait for him to suggest getting together. Or ask? Before all this we both just assumed we would be together . I dont want to mess this up. Can anyone help me?
