Ending a Relationship

I have a lot to say and appreciate anyone who takes the time to comment with advice or support.
My boyfriend and I of 2 years just broke up and I am completely broken and torn.
The relationship had so many laughs, fun and we even picked out a wedding ring...

We had our issues that mainly revolved around me feeling like we weren't on the same level of intimacy and romance. I wanted actual dates, to feel special and wanted and we communicated in different ways I suppose. I found out he watched porn, and let him know how awful it makes me feel. He promised he wouldn't ever do it again, but he did, despite his promise and my feelings. He agreed to put a blocker on his phone and that lasted maybe a week. This issue although I know isn't extreme, made me constantly compare myself to women on there, wonder if he was lying or not, and I began to hover, accuse and push him away because I didn't trust him...

We have tried multiple times to communicate better and not argue, but I feel I truly pushed him away, but also like I truly can't trust him.
I just wonder if anyone else has been through something like this.... we did everything together and I cry every 10 minutes thinking about him and us and everything we've done together.
This is so hard....

@inarasent14 .breaking up is always so hard and painful and I'm sorry for what you're going thru. Trust is so important and if it's an issue now it wouldn't have gotten better if he didn't keep his promises. I think most guys watch some porn but I totally understand why you don't like it. When your communications styles are different it takes a lot of talking to understand and accept ept .the others way. Believe I know this from experience. Sometimes it can't be done. Trust your decision and your feelings. You know what is best for yourself.
