Trying to understand?

Hi. I recently met my now ex partner on a dating site, we met up and the realtionship went really well, he told me he had austism which didnt bother me, it made him him! Yesterday I received a text message telling me he didnt want the relationship, i thought fine,  after 6 months i want an explation, we met up & he explained that he is still in love with me but the austism is stopping his ability to be in a relationship, we have agreed  stay friends however I need to understand? I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this situation for me? 

Thanks T

  • We had the most amazing relationship, he fell in love quick, we both did, always laughing and smiling. His two best friends he has an amazing friendship with and I always felt a bit jealous, because he couldnt talk to me like those, how can he hold down that friendship but do this to me? 

    I think what he's done Is sat in his bedroom thinking about things that isn't there, how do I let him know I'm trying to understand? And I'll always be here, he doesn't believe this and wants to cut it of as "I'm going to leave eventually?" maybe I should have done this sooner, I just didn't know the relationship was in trouble there was no argument? Just a text of the morning? I could be totally wrong, I just cannot get in his head?
