It's not a girl/guy thing it's more a different individual different ways of coping thing. I am a guy and more like you; like talking things out but my last ex was more like your guy. You do have to give him the space he needs because although I know it can be slightly baffling that everybody doesnt deal with the things the way you do it is simply a truth of the world.
If he has said you are starting to push him away then you need to heed what he is saying. It doesnt mean he loves you less or thinks less of you; it's purely and simply his way of dealing with things. Wait for him to get in touch with you because you will and the next time you are thinking of txting or calling breath and try not too...if you must text somebody...txt a friend :)...good luck :)x

Take this time to reflect on your behavior, and give him the space he needs! I understand your fear of losing him, but by pestering him you will surely lose him!

If you read my answer to the question before yours, it's a long the same lines and I'm too lazy to write the same thing again.
