Why did he break off our engagement over an email rather than in person or by phone? ?

Question

My fiance is one of those people who is good at confrontation in my opinion. For as long as I've known him, he hates having serious talks over instant message or email. At the very least he wants to talk to the person on the phone, but prefers 99% of the time to talk to them in person.

So I don't understand why when he was talking about postponing the wedding first he said he was going to call me the next morning to tell his decision. Then, I get an EMAIL from him instead that's very vague and brief.

When I called him on the phone, he wouldn't answer. Finally when I got in touch with him, he acted like he didn't have much to say. He seemed really sad.

Even more confusing is that when I emailed him back, he didn't respond.

Answer 1

The category you are looking for is relationships.

Answer 2

Were you cheating on him?  Could he think you were cheating on him?  That's the only thing I could think of to warrant such a reaction.

Answer 3

He is a total p***y! Judging from just sending it from an em-mail leaves me to believe he wasn't man enough to ever be your husband!

Answer 4

He is an immature d**k. Something is obviously going on with him, for this sudden change of heart to happen. You have the right to know, so ask him.

Answer 5

well he probably was very scared to talk to you in person seeing as how big this rejection is can you blame him. I don't think i'd ever gather the balls to talk on the phone but i'm shy in general. He might just not be ready yet or scared. Or he could just be a d**k like the person above said. But i wouldn't assume its the worse unless you have reason to. I honestly think he might just be scared as h**l but he probably still wants to be with you i'm not sure though.
