Leo Man+ Aries Woman Drama

I've been with my Leo since highschool on and off (8 years or so). We have been going steady for about a year. I've been going through a lot lately (he knows about some and some he doesn't know about). I dont like to get too emotional with him because he always expects me to be a 'big girl', hence i usually keep my issues to myself. However, he likes me to give him all of the attention when he's whining about life. I am 23 and he is 25.

Now, i admit i've been a bit clingy lately because we have been spending a lot of time together and i've truly realized how much i love this man. I've never been this emotionally vulnerable with him before. He then started to complain about my sudden clinginess. Throughout our situationship, he has always showered me with attention so i got scared when he started suddenly being busy, so like a fool i started to cling more because i was scared that he was pushing me away. I am usually the one pushing him away. Then he goes on to remind me about how much i used to rush him off the phone in the past and beg him for space (which is true).

If things weren't already bad his business then took a big blow and he's extremely frustrated. He started being EXTRA distant with me, rushing me off the phone etc. I am an aries and i lack patience. So i confronted him and told him to tell me what the issue was. He told me i was delusional. Over the last week, because i've sensed something was very off i asked him, if he was unhappy. He told me he wasn't. I still felt like something is wrong then eventually he exploded and told me he doesn't want to cater to my emotions because he is financially frustrated so i have to take care of my self for one month while we are on a break until he figures out what to do.

I was so devastated by his selfishness that after that i didn't call him back. He now calls me every day to check up on me but reminds me that we are on a break :s until next year. It's been a few days and i have not been contacting him. He contacted me today, asking me if i miss him etc. but at the same time he still behaved a little mean and passive aggressive.

I would never want him to stay with me if he's unhappy. I've already told him that if he doesn't want me, he can leave and i will be ok. I told him, after all these years i shouldn't be afraid to cling to him. I really dont see the point in his so called break. What do you think? Is he playing games? Since i cant get a clear answer from him, i would really like to know or at least have an idea as to what is going on in his mind.

He's not playing games and he's sticking by your side. You need to find something to do. Work or go to school.

He at least told u he's coming back and why he's leaving. Most of us don't get that luxury.

I dated leo my first relationship and it was the best because Leo's are transparent and they aren't extra deep like other signs.

I have two jobs so I'm always busy. Me and Leo aren't together anymore I feel like he needed to get a hobby so I dumped him.

When you have something to do it helps clear your mind and if you got a extra job than maybe you could help financially and fix everything
