what went wrong?

A man who I've had feelings for for a long time finally told me that he was in love with me and things seemed to be going pretty well. Suddenly he became suspicious and moody and we would quarrel over little things such as who's turn it was to call, we broke up a couple of times and got back together... then he failed to call me on my birthday, he called the next day and I confronted him by saying "thank you for remembering my birthday yesterday" he replied with "wasn't sure if it was yesterday or today, and I worked from 6 am to 12:30 am" then I went on to tell him that I appreciated him changing his mind about a trip we had planned and his response was "so?" we continued with "so" and "hmm" back and forth for a while and then he hung up. I haven't heard from him since then ... it's been almost a week. I left a message a few days ago telling him that I'm sorry if I was a little pissy but that I had a lot on my mind and told him to call me back if he wanted to. I had a so-called friend who I found out was spreading all kinds of rumors about me including telling him that I cheated on him with a man I hardly even know.... he told me that she said those things and that he didn't believe them, yet said he went along with the game and asked her some more questions about times when I didn't answer his calls.

I should probably clarifya that, even though it all sounds pretty childish we're both over 40 years old, and have both recently gotten out of bad relationships. I just need any kind of input, especially if someone has experienced something like this before.

I'm sorry you've had to go through that to find your way here, but welcome to the board.
