He doesn’t want to be with me but wants to still talk

He’s told me he’s not happy and doesn’t want to be with me. I’ve asked is it me what is it and he said he’s just not happy and nothing I did or didn’t do. He’s been probably crying more than me about how he’s sorry and how bad he feels having to not be with me. I’m super confused, the only thing I’ve gauged is that he’s done this in every relationship but what’s new he has given me the kindness to tell me and break up rather than drag me through the mud like his other girls.

I have given all options in the 24hrs for the relationship to be worked on and he doesn’t want it. I’ve said I’ve got to have respect for myself and he can’t have access to me in any way if that’s the case. He said he still wants to be there for me if I’m down and wants me to know I can come to him. Which I’m also confused about why would you want that when your have walked away. Apparently he still loves me, cares deeply and didn’t mean for this to happen which if he’s done this before multiple times surely he knew.

im so confused as our relationship hasn’t been bad. I don’t get why he’s crying so hard when he wanted this to happen like as adults we have a choice.

I think right now I’m looking for advice any advice, feedback literally just anything as I am hurting

wanted to add he’s tried to leave the door open by leaving stuff at mine and saying we will have space and talk later on down the line. Surely there is nothing to talk about

I keep seeing the image of Chuck Norris in flares doing a round house kick to this guy !

Kick him out of your life forever & zero communication

He ended it !

Some sort of undiagnosed Attachment Disorder?
