My bf is depressed and wants to end the relationship.

Hi! I joined to get insights from people who has/had depression or be with someone who is depressed.

My relationship with my bf is good. i can say it's nearly perfect. like some relationship we may encounter some misunderstanding but we would always fix things. his depression was triggered again lately because of a lot of happenings in his life and the pandemic problem.

we don't live in the same house.

we're just fine when i opened up having the feeling of being left out as he would usually play with his friends. as we were discussing, he told me he's being unfair and felt that he's not sure about the relationship. the pandemic situation is blurring his vision of what he saw in our relationship. but during one of our discussion, he told me he loves me and appreciate me, but he wants to end things. when i asked him why, he told me that i deserve better and he's not worth it. no matter how i try to explain to him that i'm here to stay he said he wants to end it because it's unfair for me that he is half-hearted in the relationship. he wants to be alone. he doesn't want me bothering him. he's tired with life and everything.

am i right to give him space and not end things? no matter how much he tries to push me i will stay.
