I feel like I overreacted

I’ve known this guy (21M) since February. We met online. We’ve been on two dates. One was at a restaurant, and one was at his apartment. I slept over at his apartment, but we didn’t have sex. We just hung out and got to know each other. I felt a great connection, and he did too. He told me he wants me to meet his friends and family, planned future dates with me for the summer, and asked me what I want in a partner.

We haven’t seen each other since these two dates because of the stay-at-home order. We texted and FaceTimed everyday for the first month of quarantine, but for the past three weeks, he’s been extremely distant. He ignores my Snapchats and texts. I know this because I see that he’s active on other social media platforms. He stopped asking how my days were, would respond with dry messages, and would sometimes leave me on read. We no longer FaceTime too. There were no more good morning and goodnight texts.

I became frustrated at his inconsistency because it all happened so abruptly. I brought up my concern to him. I said that I felt like something was off and that he seemed a little distant. I told him if something was up he could just tell me. He responded the morning after saying he was sorry and that he was busy with work and school. I believed him at first, but it got to a point where he wouldn’t even text me at night when he clearly had some free time and was on his phone posting things.

I decided to take the hint and block him on Snapchat after weeks of putting up with his inconsistent behavior. I gave him one day to text me and ask what happened. He didn’t seem to care where I went and why I disappeared, so I removed him from the rest of my social media as well. We no longer follow each other on anything. I kept his number though.

I feel shitty for soft blocking him. It was a reaction. Did I do the right thing or did I overreact? I feel horrible for just leaving.

He made it seem like he wanted a relationship. The conversations we used to have were so deep. We shared a lot with each other. His sudden inconsistency was such a turnoff and I felt so disappointed when texting him. He’s just so nonchalant about everything. I feel like I pushed him away even more by soft blocking him. The thought of us not talking ever again is heartbreaking because I really like him.
