Your not in the wrong for going there to discuss it. He's completely in the wrong for the way he talked to you. Not a nice person, and extremely disrespectful.
I agree you need assistance in building your self esteem. If I were you, after the way he spoke, don't have anything to do with him. Start working on your self esteem, and building your confidence. You need to be strong with who you are, and not take this behavior for anyone. You determine how others treat you, and you have the right to be treated with respect always.

Oh dear,
you sound like you have absolutely no self confidence, why on earth did you go crawling back to him.
You have to pick yourself up and realise that if a man abuses you after he cheats on you he is a scumbag not worthy of your love. The sooner you realise that the sooner you can heal and move on. There are men out there who will show you respect, this one won't and for what it's worth he will do the same to his new girl. Men like this are creatures of habit going through life creating turmoil and heartbreak in all their relationships. Best to put this one behind you mate.
good luck.

What you did was wrong. However, the fact that he slept with another woman AND treated you rudely means that if you are healthy, you should not want him back ... you should not wait for him.
That's the rational stuff. Of course, your emotions will cry for him. The thing is, you deserve better. You deserve to be with a man that wants to be with you. Period.
The fact that he does not want you anymore does not make him a 'bad' guy. The fact that you are so focused on him instead of yourself shows that you need to break away from him and be alone to heal and grow.
It's tough, I won't lie. But as long as you want him, and especially if he comes back and you accept him, you have no hope for true happiness. You will always be second fiddle to him.
Create your peace.

Well it depends on what you did. If you did something really bad, chances are he is serious and does not want to see you again. If he is just angry, give him his space.

Is this just someone you've been seeing, or do you have a serious relationship with? Where did you go, which upset him? A bit more information about the type of relationship you had with him would be helpful. Thanks.
