Hi Louise,

I know you are hurt and feel regretful that the relationship is over.  Stop blaming yourself.  One person can’t be responsible for making a relationship happen.  You’re too focused on what you could have done differently, but what about his role in this?  Have you thought about what he could have done differently if he really wanted this relationship to work?  You haven’t lost the love of your life because it’s not love if he’s jealous of your job and being verbally and emotionally abusive.
