Happy birthday G. Sorry that you have to go through more crap.
I agree with what you've written here. You are a common denominator, it's good to be accountable. At the same time it could just be some bad apples. It's hard to know if you're not screening the apples right, if you're attracting the wrong apples or looking in the wrong place, or if you've just been a little unlucky which is possible with a relatively small sample size. (Or the Z theory which is that 95% of apples are bad...jk...but not really...? )
But the most important thing is to not allow yourself to get hurt if you can't handle it. Don't be money you can't afford to lose.
You've got a lot to be appreciative for and once the cloud over you stops raining you'll have some peace and contentment again. And there is no doubt you'll make a full recovery and be better prepared both for hopeful success and possible set backs in the future. Hang in and don't forget to make a birthday wish!
