I really think he thinks what he is doing is on this pedestal, like "look at me, I had the guts to do something for me and no one else, and no one ever does that, so I'm better than others."
The script is usually more like this:
"I loved <xxxx>, but I never felt <he/she> loved me, and our M was terrible, but I have met somebody who knows how to treat me...".
Just to give an example of the "somebody who knows how to treat me" line.... My H and I actually had the following convo last night:
H: OW doesn't guide me.. doesn't tell me what to think or how to feel.
Me: Oh? She never questions you on anything?
H: Well, on some things.
Me: Ever compromise with her?
H: Some movies and music.
Me: That's a wonderfully superficial relationship you have there. [Exit Stage Left...]
