Why Did He Leave all of a Sudden?

Dear ASK REAL GUYS: My boyfriend and I broke up a little while back and I'm still trying to understand how and why it happened. I did everything for him and couldn't have been nicer. I gave him all the freedom in the world, and we were together for a couple of years. He just stopped calling me one day, and I never heard from him again. He had also become extremely nasty toward me, but I always stayed with him and let him get away with it. Why couldn't he just tell me the truth about how he felt? Why was he so nasty to me, and how could he just stop calling me one day after we had been together for so long?

Steven: The key question is why you put up with this for so long. I would not spend any time on how and why he acted the way he did. Instead, focus on yourself. Don't you think you deserve better? Look at how much self-worth you really possess. Develop a plan for loving yourself, realizing that you deserve a great man. When someone is mean to you, take a stand, knowing that you deserve better. Ultimately, not having a man like this in your life is a gift. Now, go out and seize the rest of your future and focus your energies on the good man you deserve.
