Daniel and Sylvia- did anyone not like how their storyline ended?


Fixed for spoilers - sorry if I bothers people
Daniel and Sylvia- did anyone not like that they got back together?

I get the idea, everyone happy in the end, and I did like it the first time - but whenever I watch it again he is such an ass when he breaks it off with her. First he is cheating on her- I hate cheating, I think if you are going to make that step then end it with the person you are with. To play both sides until you make up your mind is wrong and cowardly.
Then he tells her in a romantic restaurant- that sets the tone for a break-up. Again a cowardly move to try and keep her from making a scene and forces her to sit in the car with him after or find a way home on her own.
He seems only interested in her again when he sees that she might have another younger guy in her life.
He had no trouble using a sledge hammer to break them apart - but then he tries to worm his way in to her life again.
The more I watch this show the more I dislike him, I see no reason why she would want him back.
But that is just me, I was wondering what other people thought.

It kind of ruined the film for me.
