I Lack Faith In Humanity

I have lost so many people who I thought were my true friends this year. It turns out they are just self-centred, selfish and arrogant.
I find it so difficult to keep telling myself that I am not the one with the problem, when my boyfriend, bestfriend and a couple other 'friends' let me down and shat on my head.
The man who I thought was the love of my life made moves on me 2 days ago, yet tells me today that he doesn't want anything to do with me?! He used me to his advantage.
I keep getting my heart broken and the pain is unbearable

If someone is the type of person to use another then you are seriously better of without them. Someone like that would is not worth getting down for. People are like an addiction when it comes to love, and the heartbreak will get better, given time. There are a lot of beautiful people in this world, don't lose faith just because of a few bad ones, keep an eye out for the good ones...

@TheGoodGuy It is an addiction. I experienced the same high a few days ago that I experienced 9 months ago when we were in a relationship, but he seduced and dropped me like I am nothing. Now I feel like I need to restart from the beginning - a cycle of heartbreak

@deenaljc on the plus side you have been through heartbreak before so you already know you'll get over it, its just gonna take some time. But seriously he's not worth you feeling upset for, doesn't sound like a nice person. Sometimes we like the idea of a person than what the person is in reality. First step in recovering from any heartbreak is to wholeheartedly accept its over, have you reached that stage yet? It might help to think if there was even anything you liked about him, was he really a good person? If not then you know he's not worth wasting time over/with.

@TheGoodGuy There are loads of things I liked about him but I guess he just turned sour. He turned into something that I don't recognise and I'm still holding onto past memories

@TheGoodGuy I have difficulties with accepting things like this

@deenaljc This is unfortunate, but all to common. I urge you to get some counseling, so that your life is not controlled by what happened. Read and study on trust, and boundaries, I think it will be time and money well spent.
