Sadly the time together compounds the impact of losing someone for whatever reason. Him breaking up with you is in the top few that just make things worse.
Losing a relationship in this way is akin to a pebble falling off a cliffside. If the relationship was relatively short it is like a minute fall of a few inches or feet. Long term it becomes something akin to the ever-growing terminal velocity achieved in a lengthy fall to the ground. It takes a lot to fill the crater left in the heart from such an impactful circumstance.
I wish I could share some happier insight but there is no fast path.
The deep love that you are seeking, that love that fills you up, is the love from deep within. You will always be at the short end of love, when you seek it from someone else. Till you love you, you will feel empty ..... He knows that he has you .... He knows that you have low self-worth... Then it is time to build you up, that is your job for you. Your first true love is your relationship with you. When you are at home in you, then seek love on the outside. Then your man will add to you, not take away from you.
spend more time with nature, kids and do a bit of meditation. play your favotire music in loud sound and try to keep your mind blank of his memories. talk to a dear friend if needed. you can talk me if you feel so god bless you

Well praying works, because it reminds you that he's not what life is about.
That said... take your time, grieve a little, then find another man.
