The way he views this affair is as follows I was unloving and not affectionate enough towards him, which hurt him, which in turn made him want to find someone else to fill that void/emotional need. pretty effed up if you ask me.
You're not kidding! I hope you're not buying into that load of bupkes. How have you felt when he's said stuff like that to you? It must hurt something terrible and been brutal on your self esteem. Have you conveyed to him how painful his viewpoint is to you?
I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.
