Why do men act so disrespectful after a breakup?

Anonymous
My fiance and I (of 2 years) broke up in November after quite a hectic fight - for the first time ever, he lifted his hand to me. He slept in the spare bedroom that night and upped and left the next day to go stay with his family 1,200 kms away. We eventually chatted again after about a month and agreed to try again. He came back for a brief visit before moving back and we got into another argument, he left, I tried to contact him for a while after that but he totally ignored me and 4 months later STILL has not had any contact with me. I can't understand how someone who supposedly loved and cared for me so much & who was about to marry me, can treat me with such disrespect and disregard. I hear via the grapevine that he's having a tough time with life. I just need some sort of closure and I don't know how to go about getting it? :-(
