    No, I don’t think you are overreacting at all. It sounds like he did not respect any of the boundaries you were setting for yourself and in response actually tried to make you feel guilty for doing so. Never feel badly for setting boundaries that you know you need to feel good about a situation. Don’t be hard on yourself, he kept ‘claiming’ he loved you more, and in relationships we want to believe our partners. As for his comments, sounds like he is incredibly insecure and probably wanted to see if he could make you jealous because he used jealousy as a way to measure how committed or in love you were with him. And as for breaking up with you because he was ‘afraid of commitment’, well I don’t buy it. I think he just realized he could not manipulate you into the person he wanted you to be, felt insecure about your relationship and sabotaged it so that he didn’t have to take a look at his own behavior. He will likely continue to repeat the cycle until he meets someone equally insecure that he can mold into what he needs, which will likely not work out. At the end of the day, it is NOT your responsibility to make him happy, it is his responsibility to make himself happy and until he can admit to his short comings, well, the pattern will repeat itself. In my experience, people are only mean because it is a direct reflection of how they feel inside, about themselves and the world around him. NONE OF IT has anything to do with you 🙂 Namaste
