We enjoyed all the same hobbies and spent every day together. We were only with each other for 9 months but my heart is broken. I told him twice that I loved him once after 3 months then again after 8 months when we were on holiday. He finished with me because he said he was too scared to fall in love with me because he couldn't give me what I want... and that the pressure of me wanting a family at some point in the future was too much.... do you think it's true or was he just scared to commit?

It sounds like he told you the truth about how he felt about the relationship, which I think is a positive because you are not living life on a lie that he told you. The truth brings a person to heal verses not getting an answer at all or a lie. It seems like he enjoys his "freedom", that he has had for all these years and he just does not want to let go of it. I'm sure you know all the things that come out of being committed, and he realizes that also and just does not want to be apart of that. I beleive that he does also love you as much as you love him but he is scared. Good luck with everything.
