Hi Sienna!
I'm sorry you're going through such a difficult time. One question- how long have yall been dating?
I think that Kara Lynne gave you excellent advice. Try to focus on yourself for a while, and do the things that are important to you. You don't necessiarily have to quit seeing him, but just try to focus on your own life for a while.
I dated a guy for two years, and when we broke up, I didn't know what to do with myself without him. I was so devestated because I had forgotten who I was. I felt like I lost my identity.
So maybe if you spend more time doing "you" things, like going out with your girlfriends or volunteering (or whatever you like to do!), you'll have a little more clarity about what you need from a relationship, while giving him some time to do his stuff (you said he was really stressed out).
Hope this helps (and I'm sorry if I sound like Oprah, I'm kinda cheesy!!!!)
love, memma
