Thank you first off for taking the time to read my post.

I've been dating my currently ex bf for 3 years and have lived together for about 5 months. For the past few days we've been very unhappy. I was upset because he started acting like he was cheating on me and that I was a peice of garbage he threw over his shoulder. Ive been crying almost every night. So finally when I told him we needed to talk he refused said we didn't need to and turned over. Now this morning was my breaking point and I told him we were on the edge of breaking up and that he didn't care. He told me he felt trapped. I took that as 'I can't handle being in a serious rationship with you and I'm unhappy' so I broke down and broke up with him. He was very upset that I did it over the phone so I told him I was sorry and could talk when he got home. I explained to him how I felt and that I tried talking to him but he wouldn't listen and said I couldn't have cared about him for leaving him over the phone and that he would have forgiven me if I had appologized when he came home. But that's not true, I left because I didn't want him to feel trapped with me. He said he only wanted a weekend to himself, and that were done. Did I do the right thing..? Please advise on what I should do
