Panicking that he's pulling away

[Pawmygosh]

Relationship of about ten months that has been really good. We normally fit seeing eachother around my shift work so a couple of nights a week he doesn't come round and stay over. Out of the blue tonight he's called and said he thinks he will stay at his tonight because he's got to go the gym early in the morning. He often has the gym early in the morning and it's never stopped him before. I don't know what to think, it's caught me by surprise and in previous relationships it's usually meant they are working towards ending things.

I really really don't want this ending, I love him, he's said he loves me. I'm panicking tbh

"He was here last night and my mum was here and he said he would see me tonight when he left this morning so it came as a shock... Just wondering what changed throughout the course of the day that made him decide to make that call. He told me this morning he would be round."

He probably had flashbacks to last night sitting on the couch with your mum coughing and sneezing into her Lemsip all the way through Eastenders; I'd have given it a miss tonight as well to be honest.
