Hmmmmm... you say "i was dumb & still am". Hey Beebee, I've got some great news for you girl, you CAN change things around. It doesn't have to carry on this way! Don't talk yourself down like this - guys who are jerks know how to play you as soon as they pick up that you have low/no self-esteem.
Okay, so he was your first love but hey... everything that followed that initial thing you had is pretty trashy. He treated you like dirt & continues to do so... because you allow him to. You were right to quit giving him cash & his reaction to that should be all you need to start over without this jerk.
Come on, I know it's hard to visualise "another way" of living but this ain't healthy! Like Sam says - start over & do it TODAY!
He's taken up waaaaaay too much of your time already & the whole cheating, going to jail for him saga sums up how twisted the relationship became. It spiralled & whilst you shouldn't accept all the blame you should at least be able to see how you may have fuelled his behaviour.
You're always stronger than you think you are & all this crap that you've been through proves that. Now go out there, be single for a while. Get your life together & don't ever look back. A guy & a loving relationship are the goal so aim towards this; it's no less than what everybody deserves in life. It's what we all crave.
Best of luck, stay strong :)

You love him? More like you're addicted to him, which is typical in unhealthy relationships. No offense, but why aren't you learning any lessons here? How much will it take for you to realize that this guy is only going to bring you trouble and heartache? Wake up and smell the coffee here! You've caught him cheating and been to jail over him??? Look, I don't know what you expect anyone to say here -- but coming from an unbiased perspective -- you definitely need to move on and start your life over. A real and healthy and loving realtionship is out there for you to find. Don't settle for less than what you deserve. Move on and don't look back.
BTW: Pick up the book by Robin Norwood, "Women Who Love too Much." It should help you.
