Breakup question

    At the grand old age of thirty something I've a few longterm relationships under my belt. I got to thinking the other day, and realised that not one of these men broke up with me! Nor I them.. That's not to say I'm still involved with any of them, but with all of these relationships ended "mutually". By mutually I mean I sensed a shifting in the love/romance/feelings/attitude on their side and eventually after giving it a while to make sure it wasn't me being ridicoulous would bring it up, and they would stutter and stammer and hedge around the fact that they did in fact want to go their separate ways. In effect I instigated the breakup talk and they finished it!
    I also realise that this is where my problems with my current boyfriend come from. I was always a happy go lucky kinda girlfriend and while I'm not that bad now, even after 2 years together I find myself thinking that every time he's in a bad humour it's the beginning of the end.. Was baffled by this at first as I'd never been that girl in the past, but now kinda realise maybe it's a bit of baggage from my past relationships/breakups...
    So a question, not to be general about things but is this the norm? Is this the way men break up with women?
