boyfriend says he wants time to work on himself...

Courtney
Okay so I need help. My boyfriend of almost 2 years says he needs time to work on himself to be better for our relationship but says we're still together and we will be later on as well. But I have my mom in my ear saying that he may be leading me of because he said he wants to be able to treat me better. I'm just confused depressed and I don't know what to think or do.... help?...
