There are probably a few heroes who would fit this category. Part of Roman psychology included sacrificing self for the good of the state. I'll talk about one of the most famous, Aeneas (as told in the Aeneid by Virgil).
Aeneas fled the fall of Troy in order to come to Italy and found Rome. His wife, Creusa, died during the escape. He sees her ghost, telling him he must not turn back and look for her (which is what he wants to do) but must give her up so that he can escape.
Later, Aeneas is shipwrecked in Carthage and marries (sort of) Dido, the queen. However, he must leave Dido to go on to Italy. Again, he his sacrificing his wishes for the greater purpose of the founding of Rome.
