What is there to figure out? Leave him alone. He'll talk to you when he feels like it.

Give him the space he needs. He's going through a rough time and be there for him when you can but don't push it.

I had the same problem. He said it was his problem, with everything going on. It was actually something I had said. It went on a month before I finally made him tell me what the fuck was up, and he's like "You said you didn't want me, whaaa"

Fuck boys.

If he's not going to initiate the talk, then perhaps you can press it. He seems to get the idea that he has to handle it alone, but being in a part of a relationship means sharing both pain and happiness. He probably doesn't want to involve you and worry you, so he's chosen to disclose information from you. If you really do care about him, let him know that there's no reason why he should shoulder the burden by himself. If he shares that weight, the recovery process will be quicker. Sometimes even a big comforting hug can do a lot.
