Relationship My Bf Has Ptsd, We Are On A 'break'

[SammyGB]

Hi all

My boyfriend who I am totally in love with has wanted to break up with me because he can't handle it.
I'm heart broken. He says he can't trust me as his exes have been less than truthful to him.
I thought he knew me. I'm not anything like his exes. I don't need money from him, I have my own. He can have his own space as that is something I need as well. I have read up about ptsd and listen when he needs to talk. I'm aware of triggers and I don't judge because I wouldn't want to be judged.

He said he loved me and could take to me about anything. Which he has. He introduced me to some of hid friends. His mum knows about me which he has said he doesn't do.
I'm trying not to chase him as that can push him further away. What do I do? Walk away or wait?

If you want to walk away, walk away. If you want to wait, only you can decide how long you're willing to hang around on hold. At this point in time, it's about taking care of yourself.

I'm hear...

Believe me Sammy, I'm a guy and the EXACT same thing has just happened to me with my girlfriend. She is the love of my life and it affected me so so badly. Things are so perfect and then you question yourself so much. Just remember, there are times where they are not thinking rationally because they can't. Don't blame yourself. The most important thing is that you look after you. It sounds corny but it's so true it's not you, it's them. I feel for you because I am in the exact same position right now.
