Hey. I think you should put him completely out of your mind or at least try to. If he needs space, give it to him because the last thing you want is to come across as a needy desperate clingy person. In my experience, I've found that people want what they cant have so stop offering yourself to him and let him FEEL what life is like without you or any prospect of ever being with you. Move on if you can or just chill out and heal yourself if not. The space will do you a lot of good too so don't contact him AT ALL. Let him go. If he comes back, at least you know that he REALLY wants to be with you, and its not cause he felt sorry for you. I know cause Im 21 and have asked my bf 4 space for over 2yrs but he cries and smothers me and threatens to kill himself so lo and behold we are still together but im unhappy as hell and flippen resentful coz im stuck with him 4eva. I'd cheat at the chance. You wouldn't wana be on the receiving end of that.
