<human>: Okay so I definitely know I fucked up here. I've been dating my boyfriend for just over a year and I love him to death. We however have serious communication issues. So when I somehow ended up making him my entire life, he didn't tell me it bugged him. Instead, he just became distant. When he got distant, I got insecure and needier. I knew something was wrong but refused to admit it. It got to the point where he didn't even want to be alone with me and all I wanted to do was be physically affectionate. We were both miserable. 

This all came to a head and we decided to take a break. I became much happier because I was actually spending time on my own. I was actually staying at my house instead of his. I was cooking and cleaning, and I was hanging out with my roommate. I did, however, think about him the whole time. He might not be my world anymore but I still love and care about him. 

So the break ended yesterday. I wasn't really sure what to expect going into it. I didn't know if I would have my sweet caring boyfriend back or if I would run into the distant indifferent guy who would go way out of his way for friends and not move an inch for me. It was somewhere in-between. He wants to ease back into our relationship. The way I'm taking it is we're basically just talking and dating again. He's affirmed that we're definitely still together and he definitely loves me. He just doesn't feel the same way he did in the beginning. My crazy flipped a switch inside him and he's got to fall for me again. 

I respect where he's coming from, but it's hard. I'm impatient as hell and I'm anxious too. I'm really struggling with what this means and if it's normal and how to go about it. I want to do it because I know it'll be better for us, but right now I just don't even know how to talk to him.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: my boyfriend and I stopped communicating and were both miserable so we took a break. Now he says we have to ease back into the relationship, but I'm not sure what it all means
