is there something I can do about the way I think of him?

If he was the 'best' that this world has to offer you, then you wouldn't be posting here, hurt, and down on yourself.
In this other forum, I once belonged in, many of us, vowed, that if we ever heard the word 'soulmate' or the 'one' we'd all flee for the hills. It's a limiting mindset. And a rather dangerous one to have, for overall wellbeing.
Statistically speaking, with the millions of men, who walk this planet, it's improbable, that this man, was your one and only chance at having a loving, caring, respectful relationship.
When we place a person on a pedestal, where does that place us? On the floor, beneath their feet, right? And then what happens? We give them the power and control, in the relationship. And then, they resent us, for not seeing them as an equal, but as some demi-god, so to speak.
I don't believe, he's the best life has to offer you.

Not for one moment, do I believe that.
Companionship, is about navigating this journey, together, side by side, not carrying them around, like the ancient Egyptians carried their royalty.
