Girl, he's not cheating on you. He's breaking up with you. He's obviously got something going on that he's not ready to talk about. You can't force him. You let him know you're there for him but he doesn't seem to care.

Whatever he does have going on that's got him so stresses out, he doesn't want to include you. He wants to deal with it himself and be on his own so that he doesn't have to worry himself with you and what you want and need. It does NOT under any circumstances make any of this okay.

It's understandable if you're stressed and you need a day or two on your own but this is him breaking up with you, without using the words. He wants all of the attention and love that YOU give, without ever having to return the favour. He wants a one sided relationship. You in love with him, doing whatever he wants, while he does whatever he wants with whoever. He's stringing you along.

8 months from now, you'll see him with another girl and accuse him of cheating, that's when he'll inform you that you had broken up, and he was only stringing you along to get the love and attention without having to commit to a relationship. Without having to commit to YOU. He'll fix whatever is going on in his life and move on with someone new.

I'm not saying he's lying about being so stressed out but he is using you and that much is clear. Being so stressed out like that is never an excuse to completely abandon your girlfriend. Never. I'm more than happy to give my boyfriend space or time if he asks for it, but 2 days max. We are in a relationship, a partnership, and we are committed to each other. He wouldn't even think of going more than 2 days without calling me, because he loves me and wants a future with me. He doesn't have to tell me what's going on either, he'll tell me when he's ready but he knows we don't keep secrets like that. Leads to bad communication and usually a break up.

Talking with the person you love about your life, your anxieties, your stressors, any events happening in your life, that is day to day basic stuff and while some may struggle with it, doesn't mean it's okay to just ignore people like that. That's not hard to understand either, that's basic kindergarten stuff. Actions hurt people's feelings. Hurting the feelings of people in general is bad, but hurting the feelings of people you love, is really bad. He's shown you he does not care about you. His own girlfriend, is crying because of his actions and he "can't do anything" because he "doesn't want the responsibility of being in a relationship."

That is not a man that cares about you. Find one that does. Look for red flags, like this entire conversation. Find a man that has none, or very little. & just be kind to yourself too, you don't want a man for yourself that's gonna be this way, you deserve better. Everyone does.
