I recently broke things off with a guy after 4 months of dating. We are in our mid 30s. Things had been good until the last few weeks when I began to expect my feelings were stronger than his and when I asked him a few times if he was where I am and if we'd be making things a relationship soon, he said that he was 'trying to get used to the idea because he hasn't had a relationship in a very long time'. I took this to mean he wasn't that in to me cos he wasn't jumping at the chance of having a relationship with me. We were exclusively seeing each other at this point btw.
We had a (in hindsight silly) argument, and all my feelings came to the surface and I said how I wasn't going to be waiting around for him to decide if I am good enough to be in a relationship with, and broke things off. He said he was shocked that I was breaking things off but understood and respected how I felt. I responded to this message saying I deserved better and more and that it was a massive shame as we'd really enjoyed each others company.
It has now been over two weeks and he never responded to the message. I'm just so hurt that after everything over that past 4 months, he can just stop communication and not care at all. I suppose it makes my assumption that he wasn't that into me true, he didn't want to try or fight for me and I feel so rubbish.
I'm really struggling with the feelings of rejection and my own judgement that before the last few weeks, things were going well.
