Hello 120599: I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to PsychCentral! I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

I'm sorry you find yourself to be in this difficult situation. I don't know as there is a lot I can offer in terms of advice or suggestions. It seems to me, from what you wrote, there's not much you can do other than to wait & see what your bf decides (assuming you don't want to strike first & call it quits yourself.)

I do think personally that, at some point, simply hanging out waiting for your bf to make up his mind really is not the best idea. There is a point at which it becomes disrespectful of you & your feelings. From that perspective this becomes a matter of personal boundaries. I assume you perhaps don't want to "drop the bomb" at this point & tell him to make up his mind one way or another. But I think, if this situation goes on for too long, there comes a point where this may be what you will need to do for your own mental health. (Hopefully your bf won't put you in that position.)

Here are links to a selection of articles, from PsychCentral's archives, that may be of some help with figuring out how to proceed here:
