Idk what to do and I'm desperate for advice..

I kept asking him what's wrong, only he wouldn't say and he'd tell me nothing so I waited for him to tell me at his own pace. When he did he asked why I exchanged my phone number with that guy, I told him it was because I wanted him to send me some of the remixes I heard at the store and I really liked so I have him my phone number to send them through an app using my number. And then I told him that it was nothing and then out of no where he tells me that he wants to go home and that he isn't feeling it (note that we were heading to a festival together and he was gonna bail on me) so I sat him down somewhere and discussed it. So it turned out he had trust issues and he didn't know me so well. So we resolved it and moved on.

Man every time I read one of your posts I'm impressed with how mature and rational you are.

It seems to me that you've run into someone who's at a more common level of emotional development for a 21 year old. (an over-emotional hot mess). I'd be willing to bet that even he doesn't really know he wants. He's just blown about by his emotions like a ship adrift at sea being dragged about by the currents.

The most important thing is for you to know that this is no reflection on you at all. Whatever thoughts run through his head to cause him to freeze up on you, they're simply his issues that he needs to work through.

Whether or not you want to stick with him while he matures and works things out is upto you. But yes he probably will unintentionally hurt you again. It's a question of how much you want to be with him I guess.
