Is he still interested or not? What would you all do? ❤️

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well ❤️ I’m really sorry for this long message, so I’ll try to keep it brief. I started seeing someone in the summer of 2023, and we hit it off, messaging each other occasionally throughout 2024, before meeting again that summer. As we spent more time together, it felt like we were building a real connection, and they expressed feeling the same way. However, by winter 2024, I noticed our conversations had dwindled. When I asked if they were still interested, they confirmed they were. But after a few days of silence where I was left on read, I reached out. They had their reasons for the lack of communication, and I understood; I told them it was okay if they no longer wanted to continue. But the gap in our conversations persisted, which led me to overthink and feel anxious. In the heat of the moment, I ended things, which I now realize was a huge mistake. I apologized and gave them space, unaware they were on holiday at the time. Now, we’ve discussed the situation, and they mentioned that I was overthinking, which hurt them. Although I respect their need for space, I can’t shake the feeling that they might not be interested anymore. I’ve shared my thoughts and feelings with them, but I haven’t received a clear answer. I’m trying to give them space while also considering whether to hold onto hope (my anxiety is slowly easing) or accept that they might have lost interest (I still really like them). Am I overthinking this? Do you think they’ve lost interest? What would you do in my shoes? Thank you all! ❤️
