Question:I feel like I am doing the right thing by breaking..

off the engagement. But he put the blame on me. I am the one that acted on our unhappiness. He wouldnt agree with me, or even make a mention that thngs weren't the same anymore. Why does it hurt so much to be the one breaking it off? Why is all the blame placed on me, when he clearly didnt say anything to fight back or change my mind about ending our relationship?
