The next morning he texted me he was sorry but that he was angry and depressed and wanted to be left alone. He said again that something happened at the house and that he wasn’t mad at me. I didn’t hear from him for 5 days. This wasn’t normal for our relationship and I was very worried. I texted him a ton of times trying to get some response. I could see he was reading my messages but not responding. After 7 days he texted me that this wasn’t going to work out and that he wasn’t ready for a relationship.
SweetPea, I say this caring about you hurting right now, but he asked to be left alone and you continued to text him "tons of time".
If he is clean, you crossed a boundary of respecting his need for privacy right now.
If he is using, it doesn't matter what he is doing or why, and perhaps he is trying to protect you from the truth...or just lying.
Either way, this might be a good time to step back and take a deep breath and give more space and time to this relationship. It's not sounding healthy from where I sit.
You wouldn't be the first here to believe things had changed and would be "different" this time. That things are no better is a good sign that he's not prepared to bring anything to this relationship and you may want to move on.
I am glad you found us and hope you continue to post. You may not hear the words you want to hear here right now, "happily ever after" rarely happens in situations like yours, but please know that what we say we say trying to help you, not to condemn your choices or situation.
Hugs
