I`m so sorry hon. As a scam survivor I know how easy it is to believe or overlook things that, in hindsight, seem silly. In those cases our hearts were speaking.
The one thing that hasn`t been expressed to you here, that I believe strongly in, is that victims of scam are of the highest and most compassionate sort -- the type of people this world needs more of. The reason we don`t see malice in others is because it is foreign to us. We see the same caring qualities that we possess. You should be proud of yourself for being that sort of person.
Something I would like to share with you is this ... your scammer has traded his soul for a god - money. In the deal, he wouldn`t be unhappy if he was able to take your belief in goodness too. Don`t let him have it ... be strong. I know you can do it. And the rewards will be immense.
As you find a way to get through your ordeal, I hope you will consider staying with this community. Your sensitivity can be of great value to others, and in supporting others you will find your own healing. It`s funny how that works.
"It is good to see what is beautiful, but you must also observe the ugly things ... you must be awake to everything ... you must be exposed to things which you don't quite understand, for the more you ponder over these matters which may be difficult for you, the greater will be your capacity to live richly." Krishnamurti.
