I'm writing a paper, and I have a quotation that I'm unsure how to punctuate:

She says, “’…Do you think I found it easy to break it off?... There was nothing else I could do… I had a helpless mother and two young brothers… Many’s the time I’ve asked myself whether I was justified’” (1094).

Can I use the question mark followed by an ellipsis, or is there another way I should do this?

long story short, we dated a long time ago, he broke up with me for another girl, than when it didn't work out with her came crawling back. i kinda swore to myself i would never date him again, becuase i wanted to show him that i deserve respect. however, lately thats most of the reason why I'm not dating him. he's really cleaned up his act and is treating me like i deserve, and i feel like i have feelings for him a little bit, but i dont know if i really want to date him or if i just want to like him
help?
