So me 22F and my partner 23M broke up last week and we talked about how we are going to focus on ourselves. We still have love for each other, but I’m not sure it what he says is genuine. Earlier, he says I’m allowed to reach out to him whenever. Now, he texted me that he misses me so much but he says that he’s going to stop messaging now. I am so confused as to whether he is saying that to keep me in the loop or he genuine loves me and just want to have some space. I did say I miss you too and sounds good to his message. For now, should I have hopes or just move on?

Back off and focus on yourself as intended.
The miss you text could of been a lonely ploy for sex or he meant it – you’ll never know. But if you split you did it for a reason so remember that. It’s hard to focus on yourselves if you’re still wrapped up in each other
It can be difficult to know what your partner is feeling in a relationship, especially when it’s over. In this situation it would be best to take a step back and just focus on yourself for now. Take the space he is offering to determine what you want from the relationship and take some time to heal. If your former partner still has strong feelings for you, he will likely reach out again. Don’t put too much focus on what he is saying right now and just take it one day at a time.
