Need Guidance and Letting Go
I am recently out of a relationship where I was trying to "save" the other person from her old ways (drug use and dealing, promiscuity, prostitution). She came from a broken home with parents who controlled and manipulated her, and has always surrounded herself with people who reinforce her negative lifestyle and keep her in a cycle of self-destruction. She wanted a better life and to change. She stopped dealing drugs and committed herself to openness and honesty in our relationship. We began planning a life together (trips, talks of starting a family, etc.), and then she started to grow more distant. Eventually, I found out she had been spending nights with other men, and when I tried to confront her she blamed me saying that I was checking up on her and she could no longer trust me. We haven't spoken in nearly a month. While we never wed, I felt like she was "the one" for me. I had dedicated my life to her, and had seen an amazing future.
Please pray for the Lord to give me guidance and the wisdom to understand His plan. I struggle with letting her go because she had put so much trust in me, and a part of me feels like I failed her (even though deep down I know this isn't true). We are all broken and unworthy, and only through Jesus Christ can we be saved. Pray that I can give her over to God so she no longer occupies my every thought.
