Love of my life cheated and left

...See more So I hope you're sitting down for a long story In my last year of high school, I started a part time job at Canadian Tire, which is a department store for those who don't know. I worked there for about two months, and then one day (this exact date), out of the blue, I got a text message from one of the cashiers. She got my number from a mutual friend. Anyway, we started talking and she asked me out for dinner. We sat in the restaurant talking for so long that they kicked us out at closing time. Go ahead another two weeks, and we had our first kiss in my truck. Three months later, and she's basically living at my house with my family and I. Things were fantastic, we did everything together, were super happy and had huge plans for the future, and never had an issue we couldn't work out within a few minutes. This summer, I left my job at the department store, because my course in college required me to do a four month co-op placement, where I was working 8-6 five days a week. Despite being absolutely exhausted and sore by the end of the day, we still went for dates at least two nights a week, and did anything and everything she wanted to do on weekends. About three months ago, I came home from work one day and the car she drove wasn't in the driveway. I figured "Ok, she's just out with a friend". Went into my house and downstairs into my room, and all of her stuff is gone. She left me. I was at work, and she left me without so much as a goodbye. I found out two weeks later from two very good friends that she cheated on me with somebody I knew had been trying to get with her for months. And then I found out another person. And another. And another. And another. All people I knew, or knew of and had problems with in the past. Including her abusive ex-boyfriend. Because I had another semester of college, I had to go back to the department store...where she was still working. And where two of the people she cheated on me with work. She quit about a month ago, but not before spreading lies about me that almost got me fired, trying to turn everybody against me, and telling everybody six different versions of what happened, all full of holes and lies. Now she's gone, and it's been three months, but I still can't get over her, I can't get out of the financial hole she's put me in, and I have to see her at least one a week with people she's cheated on me with. I don't know what to do any more. I love her, and hate her, and I can feel my sanity slipping away because of this all. She cheated on me and left me after two years of the best relationship a person could ever ask for, and told me it's 100% my fault and that I never put in any effort.
