unsure of my relationship

I (22 F) have been dating my boyfriend (21 M) for the past 10 months. Before we started dating he was adamant he didn’t want a relationship but here we are. he has told me before he doesn’t want anything long term and i honestly just kind of shrugged it off which is on me. we have always fought about the fact that i ask for “too much attention” and that he is very independent. but lately i feel like it’s been coming to a head. he always pushes our plans around to better accommodate plans with his friends and that leaves me only seeing him at night/where i can fit in. i feel like im constantly begging him to spend time with me/feel wanted. he has also says he wants to move back home eventually (australia) and that i shouldn’t even consider moving as well bc we aren’t going to stay together forever. i’m torn because i genuinely do love him and love spending time with him but i also lately am feeling like i want to be single and do my own thing. the main conflict i have is i still want him in my life and we have a great group of friends together that i know i wouldn’t have if we aren’t together. i kinda feel myself pulling away but i still have so much love for him so im really conflicted. idk if it’s just a phase that will pass or if i truly am feeling unfulfilled. I also know that there is likely no future with him as he’s told me multiple times he doesn’t ever wanna get married, he also seems like he has no real goals or plans even for himself for the future. what should i do?
