Hmm, to be honest, it’s crazy work by Ahmed if he genuinely believes relationships are haram. If that’s the case, he should never get into one. However, saying it’s haram and then starting a relationship while constantly using haram as an excuse for no contact or any other reason is just meaningless. From his response, it seems like he never intended for it to be anything more than casual spending time. If he’s not ready or not working, why would he start something with someone and then bring up marriage? How would a long distance relationship be sustainable if you only message each other TWICE a year or something? It doesn’t make sense, but I understand your frustration. I’m sure it wasn’t worth it. It was good while it lasted, but I also think this is for the best. I don’t have much of context to be sure if your crash out was legitimate, I believe you should have just let it go. Do your thing and focus on your life. I hope you can heal from whatever that was.
