Struggling

So i’m a newly single mother, me and my child’s father were together for 3 years, before he ended things with me simply because i don’t make him happy… I am a stay at home first time mom, he has two kids outside of me. i just got my first job today as a CNA, working full time. I’m struggling emotionally because i so badly wanted me and him to work out, I cry everyday, i’m constantly in my head wondering if he misses me, if he still wants me… but i know he doesn’t. I joined this group because i know im not the only single mama, but it can feel so lonely. does the pain ever go away? Does the image of being a family fade? he was my first boyfriend, first everything. i was 19 when i met him, he was 24. I am now 22 and he is 27. I feel like i’ve given him my best years. some days it feels like i can’t go on without him and i know that’s such a naive way of thinking but it really is so painful guys💔
