Hi All - Ill try to keep this brief but very confused and hurt (again). The last time my ex bf broke up with me was just before an important exam - Im studying for a Masters. However since we have still been in pretty much in touch and meeting up now and again. He's been great and talking about our future once I graduate and how proud he is of me. He finished it cos he couldnt handle that I was studying 2.5 hours away but I still came home every weekend.

Cut to now, my results have just been announced and I achieved a distinction which I was so please about and I put it on my facebook page. What followed was a vile text message from him swearing at me and saying he was seething that he had to find out my results via facebook and not a personal text to him! We have not been in a relationship for 9 months and sometimes do not talk for weeks so why would I text him with my news? He is constantly on FB anyway - he then went on to say that I had had the time to reply to all my wellwishers but not text him first ?? Im flummoxed by this behaviour - he also kicked off saying he had wanted to buy all my uni textbooks too? This also is out of left field. Anyway a few days later I got a 'punishment' message saying he hadnt decided yet if he ever wanted to see me as he was still 'fuming' and had not yet calmed down.

I am at a loss - he has done something similar before amost like sabotaging any little achievement I have by this 'punishment' of withdrawing himself from me.

Is this a symptom of the illness or something more - Im so confused. But he has been ultra nice and then I know that sooner rather than later he will kick off about something.
