First of all, sorry to hear about your break up.
Depending on the state or province you live in, civil courts/small claims will accommodate the opportunity for you to investigate whether you can sue for financial loss or damages ensued from the break up. Infidelity and bruised ego can't be used against her, simply because you were not married yet. If you're serious, spend an hour paying for a lawyer and see what your chances are.
ANSWER:
If we sue people that hurt us, we will be rich by now. My husband will get rich if he sue me, and I will be a millioner if I sue my husband, his ex mistress, and his family for wrong doing. When someone promise you something, try not to believe on that person, so at the end you will not be hurt. I know.....

∙ 12y agoFrom the Middle Ages up to the twentieth century a man's promise to marry was considered a binding contract. If the man didn't fulfill his promise to marry he was subject to being sued for damages under common law.
That type of action has become rare in Western cultures and many have repealed any statutory law regarding breach of promise. In some jurisdictions even if a law was still "on the books" prosecution of such a suit would be difficult. In other jurisdictions a party can still file a suit for damages.
If there were expenses incurred in expectation of the marriage such as wedding expenses, the engaged person may be required to compensate the other party. In the case of a written contract for marriage a breach could result in damages being awarded.
The laws and practices in different jurisdictions vary. You need to consult with an attorney in your jurisdiction who can review your situation, any expenses you incurred and explain your options, if any. See the related link for a survey of law in various places.
