Relationship Ended because of Graduation Crisis

We’ve been dating for 2 years with a lot of passion and commitment – we always had dreams regarding the future. Now, we are in the last months of college. We are both applying for masters in the UK but nothing is obviously finalized yet. (We are also from different countries originally but met and studied together in Italy)
He has been freaking out these last couple of months, started pushing me away and had avoidant tendencies. As he withdrew himself from me and I felt more anxious. As I became more anxious, he started hiding his feelings even more. After days of ghosting me, he told me he loves me very deeply and wants to only be with me…BUT.. he thinks he is not what I need. He cannot see a future anymore with me.. We met too early etc. We broke our 2 years of relationship. He took back all the promises that he has given me as if nothing happened. He was crying to my face saying all these as he doesn’t have a choice and we are doomed to end. He really lost hope.

My Thoughts: I shouldn’t be with someone who is unsure about me. He might’ve been going through the graduation crisis but so am I. If he really wanted me, he wouldn’t risk letting me go but would’ve dealt with whatever he fears. I feel like he ran away from me because he can never be able to vulnerable fully. Communication was really important for us yet he left me in the dark so many times..

Any opinions, suggestions? Do you think I think in the right way? I feel like this isn’t how it goes with “the one”. I feel like there is no right person wrong time. I feel like if someone lovws you they fight for you. But I guess I just have to accept I cannot fix this.. Yet I love him so much. Should I just let him go?
