Hello, I feel terrible because of a break up.
We have been dating for nearly a year, and have lived together for seven months, but, when I left to visit my parents for three weeks, he started texting me less and less, and giving dry answers to my questions. So, after almost two weeks I asked him what’s up and he says that he’s breaking up with me. He didn’t want to give me a reason, but in the end he hurt me by saying he still loves his ex, that I was just an experiment to figure out if he can get over her, or if he can have a family without feelings involved.
I did everything he wanted me to, quit both my jobs, began working from home teaching online, I attended all my university classes, and rode a bus to school for 3 hours, even though my dorm is 10 minutes away from uni, I did all the chores, bought the groceries, cooked, cleaned, gave him massages, caressed his hair until he could fall asleep and then went to a different room and stayed quiet, so he would be able to sleep properly.. He began treating me like a servant from time to time, but I still took it in a stride and didn’t judge him or mind that, because I love him so much.
And he simply told me he is breaking up with me, that he doesn’t even want to talk it out, and that the most he can do is be friends with me. He says I’m ‘his ideal woman’, that I’m ‘perfect’ and that no one would put up with him the way I did and that he still cares about me. And after that he said I was just an experiment, that he still loves his ex, that he took me from behind, only because he wanted his ex to be in my place and he couldn’t imagine her when I was turned toward him. He told me how he began feeling guilty for not telling me that earlier, because he thought it would hurt me, but it only made me understand him as a person more, and why he acted that way.

I love him. So much. I want to help him figure stuff out. I can see myself starting a family with him. But he takes away my choices, he made me dye my hair from red to my natural colour, he treated me like a slave, he would sometimes say something bad… But then he would support me, be there for me when I needed him, hear me out when I talk, give me advice or a hug, take a walk with me…

I can’t sleep, I can’t eat… I am at the sea, and instead of going swimming, or going to the beach, I am simply stuck in the room all the time.

How do I make myself feel better? How do I become his friend, and help him get over his ex, so he wouldn’t do the same thing to someone else?
And, most importantly, how do I move on?
