Not getting any answers, please help :(?

Me and my bf have been having issues for awhile. My main problem with him as been him being undependable. It hurts me really bad when he ditches out, it stresses me out. I broke up with him on Friday night because I just don't know what to do anymore, talking to him just was not helping. It still happens. He has been paying me some attention telling me this is not what he wants and that he wants to make us better, I want this so bad.. I don't feel like he is being persistant enough, and I don't want to tell him to be because if I do I think it will go back to what it was. If he were to do it on his own then I know things could be different, I am having a hard time not texing or calling him. I don't understand how he hurt me.. then come around and tell me he loves me sooo much, and then back off. How do I get thro this, I want to be with him soo bad. I'm 24 and he is 26. It has been a year! How do I handle this? I love him and I don't want this, I want him to be there for me.. ugh.
