He Says He Loves Me but Wants to Leave Me. What Should I Do?

story of my friend
Hi! My name is Ashley, and I’m 19 years old. I had a boyfriend for two years, our relationship was beautiful, we never had any problems, and we were really in love.

He decided to study Spanish abroad for three months, and we continued our relationship normally. After two months of the distance he started to act weirdly, he wasn’t as excited as he used to be while talking and began to act distant.

I confronted the situation to him and asked him what was going on and why was he acting that way. After that, he asked me for a break saying he was kind of confused and overwhelmed feeling different things.

A week passed, and we got back together, but the conversation was still really distant. Two days ago he called me and broke up with me because he wasn’t sure what was he feeling, he said he still loved me but didn’t feel the relationship was the same.

I am so devastated because our relationship has always been fantastic we never had any doubts about each other, and now that he is far away he decided that.

I evaluated the possibility of him being attracted to other girls, but it is impossible because his classmates are all a lot older than us (he is also 19, and his classmates are 30+) apart from his course he doesn’t party and stays with his grandma who lives there.

I am bewildered and broken-hearted trying to figure out what could have happened because we were great before he left. Thank you a lot for your time reading, and I would appreciate any response or advice.

Lots of love
