people can be so mean...

Sounds like a cop out. Hopefully you'll find somebody who truly appreciates you, OP!

clearly they are horrible.people

His family is just looking for an excuse and your fiancé is standing by his family unknown to the bitter truth

People will think what they want. You know the truth.

I'm sorry, OP. He sounds like a jerk. Clearly he forgot that you were with him in the lean times. Perhaps the family found someone they think is more suitable. Cut your losses and move on.

Did you tell him this?

Gosh thank you all so much for the support. I felt an explanation is in order here. My now ex fiance and I lived together for nearly a year before he asked. He then moved out of the country for work and I had to stay back as I was still in medical school at the time. Things seemed fine. He would occasionally visit. I still haven't figured out where I screwed up things so bad. He isn't quite a mama's boy though and the only explanation I can come up with is that I ain't good enough for him anymore. Things have gone from bad to worse here. He left without a word this morning and his mum is of the opinion that I should get over the fact that I don't fit in his life anymore. Honestly, I am kind of hoping he comes around but I guess that's just wishful thinking. Meanwhile thank you all so much for the nice words. It has helped ease the burden a bit.

Oh and to those who are as broke as I am and wondering how to get rich in 4 years. 1. Get a loan and fly off to another country. 2. Save up for the first year. 3. Work on your strengths while you're there. Everyone loves a hardworking foreigner. 4. Meanwhile, dump your fiance of 4 years. He's into computers and winning. I am a doctor and still struggling to get anywhere. So, career options matter too :)

Tell them this "fiancé " can make his "finance" stronger
