But the niceness of this new guy had Vinnie treat Ben as though he was trash and not once does Ben take a step back to acknowledge that Vinnie and his care for his new friend was the main factor their relationship ended.

Ultimately, he leaves Ben for this new friend. He doesn't invite Ben (you know his boyfriend) out with him and the new friend. Vinnie doesn't call Ben nor does he leave his phone on when 'supposedly' going out to drink with his new friend. I mean seriously, Ben is at the new guy house painting, when his boyfriend (Ben) has given him more space than he deserves to paint at home. Ben is jealous (because who wouldn't be) when your man is hanging out with some other dude all the time. SPOILERS THE BREAK UP: You're left with the feeling that Vinnie cheated on Ben.
