I've hit the "hopeless" part of this battle.
He's being very passive aggressive with this whole ordeal. I don't know what is going on. He ignores my questions to talk. I haven't slept in the apartment for a week. I haven't even looked at him for just as long. At this point I don't think he was ever "sorting out his feelings." I think he's just torturing me. I had my first real meal Sunday night. A tiny bit of green beans and a little turkey hash. That was all I had all day and for the most part all week. Just today I had to force a 1/4 of a piece of pizza down because my stomach was trying to throw up the nothingness that was in it.
I love this boy with my entire being. I don't want us to give up on each other. It's almost getting to that point.

I do not know your situation so please take this for what it is but just know that when relationships begin to struggle men and women usually view this in different ways.
Men typically think "I have X amount of time in this relationship. It doesn't seem to be working I am not wasting anymore time"
Women typically think "I have spent X amount of time in this relationship and no matter how bad it is currently I do not want all of that time to be for nothing"
I am not saying either is wrong just make sure that before you give your everything to be hurt that it is truly what is best for you.
Best of luck
The best advice I can say is to try and step outside of the situation. Forget what your context and meaning behind sending the pictures and see how you would honestly react if you found he was sending nude pictures of himself...
As far as the lack of communication...as long as you are trying to open up dialog that is unfortunately all you can do. You cannot make him talk nor share his feelings. You can just give him his space and try to be there when he does decide to open up...
