Im totally upset the man i love said hes not casting me away but needs some room to think?

this question may have been asked by me before but i still need help
i met this man on the internet last year we got along really great and he said he wanted to come over to seee me
he told me he had a girlfriend but we became really good friends
we met this year and got along great .when he went back he said hed keep in touch which he did he emailed and phoned
then the calls stopped but the emails continued
then the emails went less too
it would go 3 or 4 days then hed write again
now hes told me hes split up from his girlfriend
he said hes not casting me away but needs a bit of room
to think .its been over 5days now and i am worried about him
do you think i should could continue to email or give it a rest for a while ?

he emailed me on friday and said he still wanted to write to me ,then he said he hoped i was ok and that he would check his emails when he could
he tol.d me hed gone to portugal to see his father and to get things clear in his mind
he said hed write again though soon
plz tell me what hes up to?

maybe the meeting you had with him was not as good for him as it was for you? maybe his girlfriend found out about you and that's why they split up, but he wants her back and is willing to leave you if it'll get her back?

give him the space he is asking for. you might only hurt yourslef by trying to hard to get him to come to you. let him think about his situation. if he decides in the end he wants you well great.

but if he decides he'd rather not have you, then good too because at least he is honest with you and you will not be wasting your time while other great potential boyfriends pass you by.

I would say that you need to respect his wishes. He is probably in a bad spot right now after just breaking up with his girlfriend. If things are meant to be between the two of you, it will just happen - no need to push.

Just leave him alone untill he lets you know when he's ready!!

I would let him have a little time yet. If he just broke up with his girlfriend it might be to early for him to jump into another relationship. He probably loved her and even if he ended it he might miss her. Let him think a little bit and in a few more days write him again but do it as a friend type email not a pushy get with me. If you continue to give him support it will help him get over her faster and then you'll get your chance.
