"I don't understand you!"
"Because you never take the time to understand me!" Her voice hit me with the intensity of one thousand bricks, but I was stubborn, and of course I wouldn't let it end there. I had to press her more... I had to keep going.
"Don't bullshit with me! You're never at home when I call you! Even when you tell me your dad wanted you to stay home and do chores! Or some cock-a-bull story like that!" I moved closer to her, bending down slightly so I could get closer to her face and see just how much I was hurting her. Childish, I know, but I wanted her to feel what I felt, to know just how bad my heart ached. Of course, I knew what was coming, Jin was not the type of girl to back off so quickly, that I knew.
"How dare you,"
"No how dare you! My sharp voice cut her off quickly in mid sentence, "I followed you..." I stopped catching myself, I was showing a side I never wanted anyone to see... especially the girl I loved standing in front of me. I could see it building up in her eyes, but some emotions I couldn't understand.
"You followed me?" Jin's dark brown eyes narrowed slightly, and her brow furrowed, I could only imagine what thoughts where running in her head.
"Yeah well..." I paused to think, why did I go? "You kept blowing me off... so I decided to just, follow you... no big deal." If it wasn't such a big deal, then why couldn't I bring myself to look her in the eyes? My heart sank a bit, why did I feel so bad? This conversation was started by me anyways, then why did I feel so bad?
"You don't... you don't trust me." It was not the answer I was expecting, I looked in her direction, expecting to see her ready to slap me, but all I saw where those beautiful eyes brimming with tears, tears I had caused. "You don't trust me."
No... One little word, and I couldn't bring myself to say it. No. That's not it. My mind was telling me to say it, but my voice would not come out of my throat. Maybe I didn't trust her, because I was scared... what if she did to me like I had done to so many before her. I couldn't bear it, not from her, not from my Jin. "N..." That's all that came out before the loud slamming of my front door rang in the big empty house, I didn't have to look up before I knew she was gone, the shiny heart shaped locket I had given her for our Second month anniversary sat by my foot, mocking me.
"I don't trust anyone." As I stood there, I couldn't help but wonder if this was what happened to all the guys who got their heart broken. I couldn't even bring myself to cry. Was I being heartless? Was it natural? I didn't know. All I knew was that my heart was ripping into shreds, and I could heart it echoing in my ears, the image of her on the brink of crying replayed over and over in my head, and I couldn't stop it, I didn't want to. I bent down, taking the chain from her locket in my hand, and then it happened. I clutched my hair in either of my hands, letting out a shrilling cry, knowing no one could hear me sobbing in the middle of the front entrance.
"Jinsa... Jinsa!" I yelled her name as loud as I could, letting the emptiness of the house comfort me. It felt good and bad, crying for the one I loved. It had been a full year since we had been going out. Since then I had accused her of cheating on me, this was the second time. I had blown her off to hang out with my friends, thinking she wouldn't mind on more occasions then I can count on both hands and feet. And I had broken up with her previously, but she took me back without hesitation when I realized how much I truly needed her. I wondered if anyone else was going through what I was, and how she was taking it. Was it really this bad? I mean, I could get another girl in a heartbeat, sleep with any girl if I wanted to and she wouldn't even make a fuss.
Inside my head, I scolded myself for even thinking of seeing another girl, Jin was all I needed, all I lived for at this point in my worthless life. All these years of me breaking girls hearts, I had finally broken my own, with no help at all.... I knew that I was the one to bring this upon myself, and I did not deserve to be happy with someone I finally fell head over heels for who was and is seemingly perfect in my eyes. That I knew for sure.

I would suggest going back over the story to comb for grammar mistakes. It was hard for me to read this. The dialogue was a little forced in my opinion. The guy's reaction on the end was a little odd to me. I don't know, I just can't imagine him just randomly screaming her name after he's been fine for the last ten minutes.
Keep on writing,

This is a very good story. Like both the reviwers said before it is confusing in the beining. Keep what you have, but add on to it say what happened. Also like the reviewers pointed out detail it. Here you are just telling us what is happening. It is a captivating story that needs a bit of work. I have to give you props for no grammar errors. Keep it up and i love the story
I thought that story was interesting. I found that it didn't explain a lot of things. I'm not quite sure what happened and it kind of just ended so it was confusing for me. You should add more of the charcters descriptions and settings. And don't rush too much either or else it will end up getting jumbled. But you did do a good job on the characters feelings but I didn't really feel much sympathy for him either cause there just seemed to be something missing. Good job and keep it up!
I think your MC has a very good voice so well done.
The dialogue start caught my attention straight away, but near the end I actually didn't like your MC. I couldnt feel any sympathy for her, in fact her selfishness just kind of annoyed me. Dint know if that was the emotion you wanted to evoke from the reader!
You may want to explain the situation a bit more in the beginning, also could you describe your setting etc etc. Your good with dialogue, and describing your characters emotions
These are only just my opinions of course,
Well done and keep writing.
