my boyfriend and i met when i was in my final year high school. we broke up only because he was older and we had completely different timetables and it couldn't work but it was mutual. we got together again 2 years later, and fell completely in love. he had planned to go overseas for a year before we got together and we both knew that, so after 4 months we said goodbye. i met him overseas for a week and it was fantastic, just as good as ever.
when he got back he was a little apprehensive about getting back together, but as soon as we saw each other we were back together and in love again. unfortunately this was only for one week - but we saw each other everyday and it was great he wanted to see me constantly.
then i got really sick after 1 week with the flu, and couldn't go out. he was still catching up with his friends after a year away, so i understood he couldn't be around all the time. then after 2 weeks i still wasn't better and he wasn't being supportive and we broke up because i was "too needy" when he was "still trying to work his life out again". he wanted to still see each other, but i told him i couldn't see him because i needed people supportive around me while i'm unwell. am i unreasonable in being angry that he should be there for me? i may have chronic fatigue. but we were only together for a week, but i really needed him and he wasn't there.
i haven't contacted him AT ALL, and he's tried to call me twice. is it because he thinks i've gone crazy? or he feels sorry for me? or because he misses me?
i can't get over the fact that this would've been completely different if i hadn't gotten sick, we would've been hanging out still and had music festivals etc. all planned out to go to together.
What does my ex boyfriend want? and would it have been different if I wasn't sick?

you were sick and emotional. it happens, we all resort to wanting our moms when we are too sick. he was just getting home and didn't want to spend it in a rut, he wanted to catch up.
yes you were being a little needy by saying that you needed people supportive around you, but then again you were just being emotional which comes with being sick for so long
you could have answered his calls, did he leave voicemails?
that sucked that you all missed out on the festivals, but if you are just going to be stubborn about it, then you willl miss out on the opportunity of being together again.
try calling him and seeing whats going on, maybe it was just a blip in the love cycle
