I invested so much of myself into this person, and it failed so miserably, and I feel so bad. I miss him, and I am angry at myself that I do. I can't even pray, because I feel that even God can't help me with this.

So, I will take my meds in about an hour and try to get to bed at midnight. Hopefully I sleep.

Thank you so much for this thread being here, it's nice to see you guys so positive doing really good things. When I get out of this, I really hope to join you.
Don't apologize! Be that "broken record" for as long as it takes. As you say, you have invested so much of myself into this person, and therefore it would be completely unrealistic to expect that you could walk away from this sort of investment easily and fast. Of course you are wounded!
