    My ex-boyfriend was like this.

Gooooood don't even get me started. She couldn't apologize to save her life, and decided that she'd rather break-up up than apologize for what she did. Both people should have an understanding of what to do next after a conflict without some dramatic declaration of "this isn't ever going to work." That's a sign of defeatism, of giving up when things actually get difficult and only wanting to stick around when things make you happy. That's not someone I'd want to continue spending time with.
