I was in love with my boyfriend. And he cheated on me. He felt terribly sorry and surprisingly the person that hurt me the most ended up helping me heal from the pain. I was in such a dark place. We broke up after a year and a half from reasons that did not have to do with the betrayal. But now the whole school knows. He is still my best friend, but I feel so alone. We slipped into sexual sin (not sex, but close to it), and that contributed to our guilt and we broke up (we are both Christians). Sometimes I want to drink or smoke to take away the loneliness and pain and I lean on the attention of boys to fill my gaping hole of loneliness. I just end up feeling empty again.
