Although he denies cheating, i found out he was with his ex the night before he dumped me. We have had no contact since I moved out a week after being dumped. I have never had such a hard time getting over a break up. He now hates me because I told his family how he was self destructing. I don't know why this is so hard to get over, my heart is broken.
You will be fine. Sounds like you dodged a bullet by having him break up with you, because he has issues you cant help him with. Now he is gone, and you can move on and maybe find someone better suited for you.
