Bf Advice
So me and my bf agreed for some space as the relationship wasn’t really progressing. I’ve been very supportive about this as I know he can get overwhelmed sometimes.
But I can’t shake this feeling that he wants this space to slowly start pulling away from me. I’m 25 weeks pregnant and I’ve moved temporarily back to my parents for the extra support. But I just feel like he doesn’t want all this. I want to propose a day this week to talk about where we stand.
What is the best way to approach this? Or how do I start a conversation about how I feel without letting him feel like the bad guy??

Sometimes we all need space if we are overwhelmed definitely talk about the end goal with the space and put check ins occasionally to see where u both are at x i wouldn’t come in saying you think he is trying to pull away as he might shut down but ask an open ended question about why he’s overwhelmed and what he wants to get out the space x a new baby is hard, if hes worried about becoming a dad he might be trying to avoid reminders of the worry x my partner was worried for our second considering if he would bond and he wasn’t talking to me about it because i was pregnant and
