I would be rather angry if someone treated me like that so it would take all my personal self-control not to blow up at them & tell them off which was how I handled things in my marriage but that was because I was already that glass that was at overflow level so one drop more would just make me blow up.

Since I have been away from that environment & have calmed down totally, I would probably not respond at all & I would just drop him & leave him in silence. I always hated not having the last word in a fight but now, I have realized that total silence & having nothing more to do with someone who is abusive like that is sometimes the best last word we can have. No point in continuing a useless conversation when we know it's not going to go anywhere anyway & don't waste your time or emotions WISHING that he would change. Those kind of people NEVER change unless they see a need & it doesn't sound like he's at the point of seeing a need & just wants to DUMP on you.

RUDE & IMMATURE. Definitely not someone I would waste another minute with.....I wouldn't even give him the time of day to formally break up with him because it would be a pointless conversation.

It very well could be that he's been looking for a reason for breaking up with you & is using this as a way of making it your fault. I dated a guy in college for a few times. We had interesting conversations about dating relationships & he commented about how guys hate to break up with women who are emotional so they give the woman a reason for breaking up with them when they really are the ones who want out of the relationship. I know that we as women have done similar things when we feel that we have come into a relationship with a guy that is clingy......give them a reason to want to break up with us so that we won't have to deal with it.

Ugh, can't imagine the dating scene at my age (63)....it was bad enough when I was in college & the moral values don't even exist any longer unless you get in with the right people. Not worth wasting one's time on people like this guy & much better being alone than dealing with the stress that kind of abuse/drama creates in one's life
