Hi warriors! Need advice.

Ok, short story... Was with an Aries man four years ago. With each other for about 6 months. Timing was off and I moved 5 hours away to start my career. I was becomming more like a real girlfriend, cook,clean,laundry I practically lived there... He eventually took it for granted... He was in shock when I moved though, even though he seemed to have no desire for me. Through out the years we were friends .. Or, I was. (Focused on work) he always made sure to remain in contact. He dated others. It seemed after having more experience he really begin to feel and express " I was always the one who got away" we would try to set up to meet a couple times and life just got in the way. This passed Valentine's Day . (As he did every Valentine's Day) He sent a message saying how he never really told me this but he would always love me and I was different then anyone he's been with and I'll always have a price of him .. He misses me terribly. Fast forward a couple months .. We reconnect! Hang out for three days. Courted me beautifully. Flowers, dinners, over all everything right, thoughtfulness. We have a perfect time except third night we get into an argument. Pretty heated but all was fine or so I thought... Tells me he's not going anywhere I say me either. I go back home, he's different a bit chilly. I felt it .. Tried to make it better.. He reaches out about a week later (tipsy) that he got hurt and basically wants to be nurtured. Can I basically come take care of him but I was hours away by that point.. Starts laughing that I'm an "ahole" joking. Then confessing it's all just a wash and he'll always love me & wants to know if I'm moving back home, my parents live by him. (I mentioned it's a possibility) only thing is communication .. He'll answer A couple texts, then ignore. So I followed suit & mirror. I'm familiar with that "Aries chasing" so I don't chase. One text max until he reaches back out. My question is to you guys.. Did this all just become a game again or is it doomed now? Thank you so much in advance.

He got hurt* not by me.. Him and two woman(family friends) were out for cocktails and her phone hit him in the head by accident LOL.

Games.

Games. I moved away from my Aries man 6yrs ago who still says I'm the one who got away. And I believe it. With me on the east coast, him on the west...he visit me often, except when I got in a relationship with a cancer. And if he couldn't make it, he would make sure a family member who was near by visit and bring me things for me and my kids. Aries are THAT MUCH persistent.

Thank you ladies! Hmm.. I guess it depends on how much one wants to play back I suppose?

That is very sweet as well as persistent.
