He made a choice that is entirely his right to make, but I've felt wounded by it. I've blown it out of proportion and made it into him slighting me and not being attracted to me. I went quiet and disappeared out to walk the dog, but brought my clearly butthurt attitude home. When he asked me what was wrong I said nothing. Then he pushed the question. I said I felt hurt and needed time to drill down on what was at the root of it, and asked him to respect that. He was angry about my response to the situation and trying to conceal it. Now he's stormed off out. I've tried to apologise by text.

Any suggestions? Now I feel even more like crap than I originally did.
