Rejection is the worst! If anyone knows betrayal, rejection it is Christ. I have a friend who lost her husband and she thought she was hurting til a Priest told her, there is something worse, rejection. I was rejected and it hurt real deep! To me it was like what Christ went through with mockery and slapping. I was blessed to have the person who hurt me to be remorseful. It took me even then a long time to feel better. I tried many things, reading spiritual books on humility, even though you would think that is not for people like us. A very good traditional priest and well known who died, was the one who heard the confession of the one who hurt me so! He told me, to pray 3 rosaries a day. I was doing 3 when I could already, but I find that doing 3 = to the Divine Office. I find that when I do, I have peace and when I don't the devil tempts me with awful thoughts of what I went through. It is like the devil wants me to have "Pity parties", feeling sorry for myself. I still have cries every know and then, but I must think of things to Thank God for, and to be a true, honest to goodness Catholic, I know I must pray for the strength and understanding of God's ways to get me to that point. Forgiving is not instanious (sp) for we are human, but with God's help of His Son's Precious Blood in all the sacraments, forgiving is supernatural, not so much of man's ways, but God's way. You need supernatural, and beg for it. I certainly feel with you for you did not receive remorse and consolation is a big human desire. Persevere.
