This is a pretty passive approach though, you’re putting all the power in his hands and you have to wait around in agony for him to show he cares. If the relationship is no longer working for you, I would just tell him that.
I think that she got the 7 year itch and wanted to take a try with someone else while keeping you on retainer.
That’s not something you can easily come back from because if she had just been honest and said that she wanted to break up then no one’s being lied to but this way you’ll never know if she’s telling the truth or not.
