Should I Wait for Him?

My boyfriend and I broke up a little over a week ago. There are multiple reasons for it, but the main one is that the trust between us is absolutely destroyed on both sides. While neither of us cheated or did anything super catastrophic, we both have insecurity and trust issues. We both had to walk on eggshells around each other for a while and I made a mistake that went over the line.

He said we both just need time apart from each other and that it’s for the best. He also told me to have hope for us and to hold onto it for as long as I can. While it’s only been a week it feels like so much longer.

Since then we’ve seen each other little and don’t talk often even though we agreed to be friends. While this breakup is still fresh I don’t want to become distant with him; if this is going to work out I can’t become strangers with him again or it’ll feel strained and awkward.

I’ve tried to improve myself and I think Ive made some progress. However, on his part I haven’t seen too much. He’s still immature when I try to have a discussion with him and he constantly leaves me hanging when we text. He also never texts or calls me first and I’m the one who has to do everything and make all the decisions (when we talk, what we talk about etc.)

Our anniversary is on June 3rd and I was planning to give him until then to straighten his act out. What do you ladies think? I feel as if he has potential but I don’t want to be with someone who doesn’t want to put effort into us even being friends, let alone partners.

Any and all advice is appreciated! Thanks so much ❤️
