My ex and I were together for about 7 months, before he broke it off. In the last month of our relationship he was struggling with his anger and used it to make excuses for not meeting up after work for coffee, which was our usual mid-week hang sesh. I asked him why he felt so angry and he said that work was stressing him out. He still messaged me and called me every night to chat (we would talk for hours), but we saw each other less in person. In that last month of our relationship, he had planned to move in with a friend of his who was a girl. I felt uncomfortable about this arrangement and when I told him so, he was not happy with me. We are both Christians, and decided that we wouldn't move out together (for obvious reasons), so I couldnt fathom his decision to move in with another girl. He still went ahead with it anyway. I left it for a while, but then i could not hide my disappointment. I called him to tell him how I felt and suggested some solutions to help save our relationship, but then he ended it, right there and without a reason, stating that he was really going to miss me. A month later, without any contact, I approached him after work to return his belongings and to ask him "why". He told me that in the last month of our relationship he just stopped loving me (despite still telling me that he loved me right up until the break-up). I tried to control my feelings of hurt, but when I did cry, he cried too. He said that he wanted to still meet up for a coffee and I told him that I needed time. 3 weeks later (without no contact) I approached him after work to take him up on his coffee offer. I appeared happy, confident, bubbly and made sure that I was well groomed. I asked him if he wanted to grab that coffee, no strings attached. Of course, he was too busy. Then I realised that he wasn't serious about his offer. He asked me questions about where I was going that night and who I was going with etc. He told me that he had made plans to catch up with the boys. Before I left, he apologized that he wasn't available for that coffee, I acted like it didn't bother me, smiled and told him to have a good night.
We have not spoken since. If we rarely pass one another on a lunch break, his body stiffens and he can't even look at me.
We had a really good relationship until that last month. He had even brought up the subject of getting "engaged", which led me to believe that we had a future together.
Can you really stop loving someone without a reason? It seemed all too convenient that things changed when I began to question his decisions. I have also since discovered that he told his church mates that he moved out with a guy, so he his being dishonest to them too.
Any thoughts on what his deal is?*
