[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here—I completely recognize I was judgemental and I admitted it to him. I apologized and I admitted I misunderstood the situation.

I feel terrible because I feel like he turned on me after being nice.[/quote]

He didn't turn on you, he just decided he wasn't interested after an incident which showed really clearly that you were incompatible. When you are older and dating it is much easier to weed out what you are into and what you aren't. He saw you clearly have very different humor/tolerance for silly things and he ended it. You would have been within your rights to end the relationship because you don't like things like that (I also probably would have pumped the brakes in the face of fart jokes or stink bomb usage) and he is within his rights to end things because you clearly find him juvenile and you reacted really intensely in a text (I also would have pumped the brakes if I made a joke and someone recoiled like that).

There don't have to be bad guys in every situation. You dated a couple weeks and it didn't work out. You're not going to be compatible with every nice guy on the planet. It's fine, brush it off, thank you, next.

TBH you framing this as the silent treatment makes it seem like you are the problem here. He broke up with you in a way that did not seem mean and that clearly communicated that he wouldn't respond anymore so you weren't in limbo. That is NOT the silent treatment. It is honestly pretty courteous in break up land. [/quote]
