You only need to focus on yourself. If a relationship no longer works for you, then you have the right to end it. If your partner has questions and would like to talk, you can try and help him, but you shouldn't offer help before he asks it. If he doesn't forgive you, that lies with him, not with you. If being single is what you need, then being single is what you should do. It's sad, it hurts, and it hurts others, too, but you can't live your life making everyone else happy if you're not happy.
