avlady, I don't think the friend killing himself was a recent thing. That was just the reason he wouldn't go to the hospital because it brought back those memories.

SamTim, I'll be honest here. From your description of how you acted, I would not want to be with someone who acts like that either. It sounds like you have a problem controlling yourself, and if this type of behavior is a regular occurrence (even to a lesser extent), I can certainly see why he broke it off. As far as I can tell from your description, you started a HUGE fight over absolutely nothing. That's some pretty over-the-top overreaction there, and a lot of people like to avoid pointless drama in their lives.

It's impossible to tell whether he will eventually agree to see you again, but if he does, I suggest you take it slow with some dates so you can remind him why he loved you and show him that you can learn some self control.
