My boyfriend broke up with me out of the blue a little over a month ago. He has a complicated family history (alcoholic father, etc.) and a fear of emotional intimacy. When we started getting close - 7 months in - he got scared, panicked, and bailed. Since then he's shown up outside my office building and done other small things that show me he is still in love with me. But he hasn't called or texted. (And I'm not sure he will until he realizes what he did and is 100% sure he made a mistake (it's just the type of person he is)). My question is this: what is the best thing I can do for someone with his fears? Do I give him space? Do I tell him I miss him? Do I text something friendly? I'd really love to get some insight from anyone who has these fears or has experience dealing with someone who does.
