Hi Peace. As you deal with this, something to think about.
As you look at this, are you at a point where you can separate what he did to you, vs what he did for himself? Are you able to see the difference between hurting you and leaving? What it was you wanted and thought you had vs. what he did?
I doubt seriously he started the relationship with you thinking he would turn out like this. I'm sure there's some self-loathing and anger at himself. Enough for both of you. I'm sure that if you don't deal with those emotions and figure out the above, you'll be stuck for a lot longer than you need to be. The damage will be bigger than you deserve.
