Damn, I was afraid of this. My heart aches for you too. They just don't know what they do to us, and frankly, many of them don't care. You did nothing wrong. He is still "out there" searching for something he already has in you. Sometimes we are most blind to the things closest to us. I don't know what's going to happen with you guys but i really don't want to see you hurt again. Your capacity for love has been demonstrated. Your capacity for forgiveness is constantly tested and you pass every time. You're hurt right now because you love and want to be loved. That is one of the most admirable reasons to get hurt. I want you to realize that people like me, who only read what you post here, can see the heart you have, and feel the warmth you give to the world. Please, turn that heart and warmth loose on yourself and take care of Hope. Again, I hurt for you tonight. What he did was predictable but never-the-less awful and you are undeserving. Hold that head up and show him that he's losing much more than he ever thought!
