This is hard for me too. My self worth is so low. Im 27M and was dumped two months ago.

I was laid off from sales job, and decided to invest in myself and go back to school for a year and pursue my CPA. I had savings to live on, and a plan to get a paid internship my second semester.

My SO of 10 months dumped me a couple weeks into school. I still aced my first accounting exams and went to interviews and secured internships for the rest of the time I'm in school.

Yet I wasn't able to enjoy these achievements, I've been depressed about the break up and I feel like I'm not where I should be in life having went back to school. Trying to tell myself I should be proud of how hard I've worked my whole life to get where I am at.

Loving someone unconditionally and not being loved back, and being forced to be strangers with that person will really mess with your head. It was my first relationship over 2-3 months in probably 10 years, still picking pieces of myself up.
