Reading this has made me physically ill. 90% of everything in here is my recent (*I just got dumped last week).. XAbf. He replaced me; with someone more vulnerable and I never saw it coming. Thanks to God and Alanon, I am trying to put myself..MYSELF..back together. We had this perfect lil'life; I was/am so in love with him that I never saw it coming...never saw that I was being manipulated, puppeted. Thank you for this very honest, albeit painful post.
