Need Relationship Advice?

So I am 24 and my bf is 25, the past month or so we have been living separately because I wanted to gain my independence and wanted him to get a good job near where his parents live! When I told him that I wanted to move out he flipped and it really scared me and made me feel really bad! So I went with his promise ring and tossed it to the floor and said its over! A month has gone by and we are back together though we havn't seen eachother yet! (since the fight) He was telling me that he keeps on waking up in the middle of the night worried about me and him! Though he still loves me and love him, and my parents keep telling me to leave him (when he is really nice) I don't know what to do! Can those weird dreams mean he is giving up? or does it mean that he feels like its over? I don't know what to do! All I know is I want to be with him and he wants to be with me!

If he can give space and not be a controlling idot. Get a job prove he can provide. But marrage is not the best thing. Full life coommitment is im possible. Just live together, that is much better.
