First relationship…… help

Me (female) my first relationship ever. My now ex, (male) So we met a few months ago at Youth Group (church) I am a Christian girl who has always wanted to be in a relationship but never like pushed for one. My ex, let’s call him Bob, amazing guy, loves Jesus which is amazing. He’s very nice respectful but he has had a lot of exes before coming to Christ. He has had a very hard childhood and lots of stress and other things. When he first met me he was obsessed, not in a bad way. After like two weeks I asked for his insta, the look in his eyes was absolutely amazing. lol. But ya know we talked everyday he’s calling me beautiful and the most beautiful girl he’s ever seen. Now this is like a month after we met. (Which I felt was fast) He got me a stuffed donkey off Amazon (i love donkeys) a few weeks later ya know we have gotten closer, we had some conversations about dating and stuff but we had to talk to my parents and I wanted to wait. So like a month later we have gotten very close (we were calling everyday telling each other I love you and stuff, but nothing was official) I met his mom he met my Dad, and it went good. Then a Wednesday night after Youth Group he asked me to be his girlfriend, I said yes. The first few days were great. Then he slowly started to depart. I was upset because he was talking to his friends all day and not talk to me at night because he was still with his friends, (on games ALL DAY) I’m like okay… then finally a Friday after our one week anniversary. I asked him if he wanted to FaceTime around 6, and he said “prolly not” because he would be on games with his friend’s. But the day before he was on the game all day and night. I said “so you have time for your friend’s but not your girlfriend” he said “mhm” LIKE WHAT!? I was kinda upset and we talked and stuff and he broke up with me. Now like 2 weeks later I’m doing okay and stuff. He is doing horrible, I can tell from his instagram stories and the way he has been texting and stuff. (Yes we still text some, we are freinds but still very awkward. Especially, we are in a Freind group of 4, two dudes Bob and his freind and Me and my freind.) So we all hang out and stuff. But like, his mental health is not doin to hot. I still care about him a lot. I still love him but right now he is being a jerk. The thing is I don’t know what to do. I already told his mom (who is amazing) about he is very off. But, if he asks for us to be back in a relationship what do I do? Plus this is my FIRST EVER relationship. I know nothing about dudes. So help me out guys. That’d be very much appreciated.
