Alright, I will give you a basic overview of the situation here.
We were together for almost 3 years. I was his first girlfriend, we started dating when he was 18 and now he's 21. I am 18 almost 19
Well, he broke up with me last night. His main point in the break-up was that he does not have time for a relationship because he wants to put all of his focus on school (he is a mechanical engineering major). He also feels that we are too attched. Reason being that he has been there for me through my entire family falling apart basically. He has been the only one that has remained stable through everthing in life. He is the only one who has stayed with me.
I have put alot of pressure on him due to this, i have been needy and jealous and one of those "girlfriends from hell" basically. This break up was kindda out of the blue, because the day before I was sure thigns were fine. A week or so again we had talked about how he wants more space, how I was going to hang out with my friends more on the weekends and not spend all my time with him. He was acting totally normal. I guess he says he's been feeling this way for a while.
I just dont know what my best route to deal with it is. I want him back, Is just leaving him alone completly for now the right path? Making him see what its really like to be alone. I feel like he still loves me so much, or does this hope look false?

No one knowss what is going to happen maybe youl find somone who understands you better than he did?
-hope i helped-

It was written in an intelligent way, and was very easy to read. As far as the actual issue at hand, I don't think you should ignore him, or leave him "completely alone". You still love him, and it's pretty hard to imagine that he doesn't love you. Just go with the flow; talk to him when he talks to you. Also, remember it's okay that you miss him. If you weren't devestated, there would be something wrong. There's nothing wrong with wanting him back. There's also nothing wrong with telling him how you're feeling, if the subject comes up.
