A six year long distance relationship. I did the impossible! The girl of my dreams was lonely, ignored by her family and hated her self. I filled every spot, dedicated all my time to her. All my plans were to build us up from being clueless new adults to mature successful people. We called everyday, stayed on the call even through sleep. We did trips every year where we would visit each other; the ending of those trips were always the worst. She would be under a sad cloud for days when her time to fly back home was near. I got her gifts every month, not just random stuff either but things I paid attention to and determined that she would use forever; gifts that fixed mini problems she was having. From clothes to makeup to just really handy utility items that I hadn't even know existed but had an idea of what she needed. I motivated her aim for higher heights at work. I started reading fantasy romance books because she didn't have anyone to discuss it with. I taught her life lessons that I had to learn through suffering and hardship. I proposed at year 4 during a trip, spent weeks trying to find the perfect ring that captured the imagine I had of her. Now comes year 6. Fours months in, 2 months from the wedding, she tells me she doesnt want this. The relationship has run its course because she(24f) has friends now. The people at her work value her and this is where she wants to be. Alright! I(27m) don't mind a compromise. We can move there. Nope she says. She wants to be selfish. She doesnt want me, she wants to give her time to her career(Loading boxes for delivery) because she is important there. I lost my fiancee to her job because I motivated her to be the best at whatever she did, and she gained friends.

she started building a life that didn’t include you long before she actually said it out loud?
3 months. Started making friends in January. Went out to a group breakfast and a party with one older lady in March. Was ready to get rid of me right there

man this hit hard. i was in a long distance thing where i gave EVERYTHING too, built my whole life around her, and when she finally felt okay without me she just… left.
you didnt lose her to her job, she decided to leave you. it’s not your fault even tho it feels like it now. she is the one that left, maybe she wanted to be with someone else. normally, you shouldnt leave a relationship cuz you got into a job or anything, she left cuz she wanted something new. don’t blame yourself and try to move on, i know its hard right now but over time it will get better!
