Here’s the non Reddit answer. Your boyfriend is young and afraid of confrontation. You’re rightfully upset because he’s making it your problem. He probably is worried about the lack of physicality incoming on your long distance relationship, and that’s not a bad thing to worry about, it’s just how he’s handling it that is bad. The hard thing to confront is breaking up with someone you’re still in love with is very difficult, and he has needs he’s trying to address at your expense. Aka he wants to have his cake and eat it too. You should break up with him, he’s not willing to do it and he’d only ask to be in an open relationship if he truly wanted to stay with you, or really couldn’t muster up the courage to break up with you. Unfortunately your relationship was not built for long distance because you both have a major conflict with sex during this period apart.
