What do I do in this situation? Anything at all?

I pushed away my boyfriend and I'm not sure why, he was great. Part of me thinks it has to do with not wanting to get hurt. (Different ex cheated previously) However I now realize all men are different. Even when he ended the relationship and said he wanted to maybe work out things later, I pushed him away more thinking that was just an excuse to date around then come back if there was nothing better. I now pushed him away completely and my friends say he just needs time but i fear hes never coming back and why should he. Is there anything at all I can do?

You can be honest with him. Meet with him and tell him why you were pushing him away. Tell him that you were afraid of another relationship, because you had been hurt before. If you care for him, tell him you do. Then, ask him for another chance. Tell him you're willing to wait until he's thinks about it; and if he gives you another chance, be the loving person you should have been before. If he decides to move on, chalk this one up and try not to ruin another relationship. Best wishes!

Marie, I am not sure what he is like. but from what I have learn from a long time ago is. that if they say they do not want to be with you for a while. shows only one thing. that they must not like you as much as you first thought. Like if you really like someone you want to be with them all the time, and would never even get such a thought in your head.But as I said, I am not sure how he is. there may be a real good reason. ask him what it is. then if he will not tell you. it is either something he knows you would not like to hear. or he is afraid to tell you. but to be sure, keep an eye on him. even your friends can do the same. in this way you can find out for sure, what he is up too. and then decide.
