I have been with my Taurus man for almost a year now. I love him very much (I believe he loves me too), but being a Scorpio sometimes I do find him a bit difficult, if you know what I mean.
He would spend time with me and then disappear for days, weeks. He is just like that and I have long time ago decided that I will be very patient and will respect his withdrawal periods. Other then this he is the most amazing BF ever.

But anyway, last week something really surprising happened. He totally opened up to me. I think he wasn't planning on it, it sort of happened in the heat of the moment. So we started talking and he ended up telling me some huge huge stuff about his life. Something completely big and important and maybe even a bit embarrasing for him. I ended up crying from sadness (because of what he said) and then we just slept together at my place (no sex). So it was very weird because I wasn't expecting it and was totally surprised. If I were him, I would NOT tell things like these to my gf of one year...

Like I said, this happened 2 weeks ago and now the problem is: I haven't heard from him since!!
I have texted him twice and he replied but just some regular things. I have seen him the morning after the confession and said goodbye to him before I went to work, and we talked a bit and kissed. No sign of him ever since!

What is bothering him? Is this because he now regrets saying all those things to me and wants to whithdraw?? Or is he trying to get rid of me because of how I reacted??

And what should I do?

I am kind of used to him being extremely slow and having absolutely NO sense of time etc, but I am really worried this time. Like I said, we have been together for one entire year!!!! I have been very patient until now but now I think I am finally going to have to have the talk with him (although I was trying to avoid it... I mean I am getting tired of him letting me close and then running away..) Yes, I am really tired of this behaviour!!
😢
Please share your thoughts! THANKS!!

He's not sure about you or what he wants, but the bottom line is he is not ready to be % 100 with you.

That's how they are. They are either on full mode with you (with the decision clear in their mind) or off & on.

Idk if talking will help. If he feels pressure from you he may just back off more. I haven't heard of many good things coming from a talk with them regarding this behavior. He may have told you that so you would understand where he is at in his life. He may think he's already explained things. That's another thing, they don't like to explain their actions. Explaining their actions = negativity which = you not understanding them which makes him need to retreat and process whether you are the right one for him. I get this from my T, he expects me to know what's going on in his head and gets upset when I don't see what is so clear to him. Thankfully, I am psychic 😛

There's your sign.
He bared his soul to you and told you something he probably hasn't told many,if any others.
that's extremely hard for us.he's been carrying this thing around with him for what I assume a long time.
we are very private people,our burdens are our burdens and we don't wear them around for people to see.
he most likely feels very naked and exposed right now,and although you cried for him...he wonders if he should have told you and if it affects how you see him.
hell,I sometimes reveal very small inconsequential bits of myself here on dxp,then immediately hide them....
because I'm a private person.
just leave him alone for now about it and act normal.he'll work through it and be back to normal.
also,you should understand if he told you this thing he trusts you and loves you.let that be enough for now. 😉
