My boyfriend just broke up with me. He claimed I was the love of his life, his soulmate. He had plans to take me on a cruise and out west. I told him his anger was an issue and I couldn't live like this, not being able to feel I can approach with a concern , because he would last out with yelling and cursing. His demeanor is good all the time, except the 3 or 4 times in a year and a half that he didn't like the fact that I stated my opinion and wanted to talk about something in a "civil" way. How long would it take a guy to think about it, hopefully have the courage to call . He broke up using e-mail. I was devastated.
