My boyfriend and I have just split up, after 2 months. He was the one that was doing all the chasing and the one who was all lovey dovey. The other day he wanted our relationship to stop as he said his feelings toward me were getting stronger and stronger, and if we carried on it would hurt us both, he is going to Australia in a couple of months. He still wants to see me and be close to me. Why is he behaving like this?

Maybe he is trying to keep you thinking of him while he is away. Ask him.
