you can and you should xtine.. when we allow others to remove from our life our desire to live, breathe and grow, it is not only ourselves who suffer, but those who may have benefited from the goodness we hold within...

there are many who desire that goodness.. i encourage you o work thru your pain and find another who will appreciate your values (you do have them) and together you may grow in spirit and love and in so doing, guide those behind you...

it is very hard and very painful at times ..

wishing you the best always..
