Long distance confusion

A few weeks ago I met my boyfriends family and friends for the first time. We are involoved in a long distance relationship and have been dating for 6 months. After I returned home he has is told me that he is not sure he could take our relationship to the next level b/c I was not the same person he met. He found it difficult to read me and is unsure if that is the type of person he wants to pursue a long distance relationship with. Keep in mind I was away from my comfort zone, meeting his family and friends for the first time and on top of that he was sick. So sick he had to go to the emergency room. I was definitely not being myself b/c of the stress of the entire trip! What should I do and what is going on in his mind?

Whether it be his goals, motives ot taste that changes, something has done so to make him back off.Maybe he just isnt comfortable with the distance that seperates you. The best thing you can do is explain your self ONCE (anymore and it'll seem pushy), that you were out of your comfort zone by being put in an unfanilar situation with
