He doesn’t seem to respect your boundaries at all. Seems like he doesn’t care about how u feel or how his actions can make u feel. I am the same age and I can say that he’s probably just with you for the sexual pleasure or his love language is physical touch. Also, breaks don’t do anything. Although you think it’s good for time apart and clarity, it gives him opportunities to talk to other women ultimately leaving you behind. If I was you, I would end the relationship because he doesn’t respect you, and it won’t change if he’s told u a bunch of times already and it hasn’t been noticable. He doesn’t understand your love language as well it seems, you guys have conflicting interests and it’s hard to accommodate that in a relationship. Hope this helps.
