I Am Feeling Heartbroken

My mother told me that any guy that would ever date me was going to leave. As much as I hate that woman with all of my being, she was right. We broke up today and I feel like I lost a part of myself.
Keep in mind, this is the guy I thought I was going to marry. We looked at engagement rings together. He promised me we would get married. I based my entire life around the idea that we’d stay together. I chose my career because it made the most sense for what he wanted. I was the one that had to move closer to him. I had to sacrifice so much for him. I lost friends, family, etc. because he didn’t like them. I had to quit my old job because he didn’t like my coworker.
I just wanted to be good enough for someone for once in my life. I will never be enough for anyone.

Ok, I see a lot of red flags here. You made every choice based on what HE wanted. Where are YOU in all this? A guy wants to be with YOU not a female clone of himself.
What are your dreams, your ideas, your thoughts, your desires? That's what makes people interesting, is our differences. And if someone does not agree with some, so what? Doesnt mean they hate you now.
You need to understand that you are as intelligent, interesting and valid as anyone else out there. Do not ever change who you are to fit someone else's ideas. That NEVER works out well.
