How can I get out of this horrid situation I find myself in?

The first step to love is loving yourself. If you can't be happy being you first, then it makes it even more difficult to fall in love with someone else. Be your own person and be able to tell yourself that all of those lies people say aren't true. People are going to be jerks; it's not always easy being strong all of the time. But even diamonds are made in the greatest amounts of pressure...you have the opportunity to take the bad things people say about you and turn them into your motivation to prove them wrong. Use their cruel words as fuel. You have keep your head up, no matter how difficult it may seem, because there is a light at the end of the tunnel, even it seems very dim. I believe that if someone truly is your soulmate, things will work themselves out one way or another. If you still keep in contact with miss X or miss Y, then try to stay friends. At least that way they still stay in your life. And who knows? One day, friendly love may turn into more than that. If not, just know in your heart that someone even more perfect than you can imagine is just around the corner...
