Trying to be okay giving him space today

My bf and i got back together yesterday after a few days of fighting about something

I was incredibly sad without him. I dont eat, i throw up, and i bawl my eyes out

We said we would do some errands today and well its almost 6pm and i havent heard from him

I know he is probably taking care of his child, among other things

The errands we were gonna do aren’t priority to other stuff hes got goin on. This man has more on his plate than ive ever seen. His stress and responsibility is huge, and when we broke up he essentially said how he had to focus on his things instead of being all loved up distracted with me.

Well after an hour of being super mean and cold to me as i was bawling my eyes out, he finally hugged me and said he was there for me and loves me too much to walk away. We kissed passionately, had sex. He then had an appointment but said we were good, that he was overreacting, but that we still had things left to talk about

Our breakup drained us both

I understand that of course he could just text or call me, but with how bad things got its probably best we do have a day apart before we hang again.

I also dont want to trigger anymore stress in him by calling or texting..

So im just...okay. Not crying because i know he loves me but its like im on eggshells and dont feel confident. Even though he said he loves me and we’re good...i feel numb

Not sure what I want out of this post, i guess just reassurance that i should relax and allow him to reach out to me. I dont want to suffocate him when he already feels like hes drowning. I just feel numb cause hes my best friend that im used to talking to all the time. And here i am force feeding myself wondering what to do with myself. I will hopefully get myself to do some exercise, despite the weather. But really maybe just go to sleep :/

Am i doing the right thing by giving it time? I think that i am but its so hard..i want to reach out but i keep telling myself its best that i dont and ill most likely hear from him this evening or in the morning..
