Should I break up with my boyfriend?

My boyfriend and I have been dating for approximately 2 years. We met while pursuing our JDs and currently have a long distance relationship. The communication between us have been poor the last few weeks. I spoke to my boyfriend about him not responding to my calls right away. He said he's been busy starting his own business and working for a nonprofit. I told him that ignoring my calls and not calling me back makes me feel unappreciated, like i'm not a priority or an important part of his life. He apologized and let me know that it was quite the opposite. We ended that call on a good note saying "i miss you" and "i love you." We even discussed going on a vacation right after we both sat for the bar exam.

A week goes by and I still haven't heard from him. I stalked his fb (we're not friends on there) to see that he changed his profile pic and liked two other businesses in the past week. He was also on our school's gmail account twice where he could have sent me an IM, but failed to do so. So today I go to call him. Not to fuss or fight, but just to see how he was doing plus senior grades were posted this week so I wanted to make sure i would see him in 2 weeks at our commencement ceremony. He never answered. This was maybe 12 hours prior to me writing this question.

I'm not convinced he's that busy that he can't talk to me. I just spoke to him about it last week, and he's not trying. I think I'm ready to end it. You can't try when the other person doesn't seem to have his heart in it.

Should I break up with him, ignore him, or wait until he decides to contact me?

Update:

1. As far as LD goes, the plan was for one of us to relocate since we've only been in different states during our last semester of school.

2. I don't do social media with my relationships. I don't talk about my business on mine, and I would appreciate if my mate did the same.

    Breaking up with him just how you would like may cause him to break down and cry or just so hurt. Guys somehow can only keep hurt feelngs to themselves than girls does. girls can share it and poor guy he is.This must be not really what he expects because he seems like he likes you and he may not moved on and accept things pretty easily. You have to let him know what you think because in the end he may find himself so lost and don't know what to do just to get over you. While you you can and there's no much heartache. But what I'm really telling give him another chance work it out. It is a fact that no relationship is perfect. Everyone gets hurt. Best of luck.

    Be nice and don't burn bridges.

    But let him know you think it is time to move on and it would be good for both of you to have a real person who is there for both of you.

    But make up your mind to go through with it with no turning back. Be nice but be firm. You only live once. Every lonely evening and every empty morning you are wasting. It is nothing against this guy it is about waking up to the realization that he is not available. He isn't there. Good Luck

    Honestly, long-distance relationships don't exactly work out easy. Whatever you think will work out best for you. Since you don't talk very often and his FB doesn't show anything about you two, maybe you should break up. Sorry. 😔

    If you want to end it, you do what you gotta do. If you feel unappreciated, then I think you should go and find someone who appreciates you. Don't wait around for someone who won't make time for you.
