anxietyridden

Four years ago, I moved to a foreign country. Shortly after I fell in love with someone. I had so much fun with him. He seemed so original and downright amazing. Then I broke up with him.. but really regretted it after (I had some issues with him being a few years younger). I tried to ask him back and he refused, being very harsh, saying he would never love me again. It was agonizing pain. I felt like I deserved all of it.
Then several months after this happened, I started having feelings for a close friend. He and I started seeing each other; I told him I was not ready to be in a relationship. I did not feel over my ex. I saw someone else, a different guy from the past. The close friend took this as 'cheating' on him. I apologised and never did it again. I totally committed to him. Then I found out that he had a really bad temper and anger management issues, and then he became violent, which he blames on me.
I moved out. And then I ran into my original ex. He took my number and we hung out as friends. Nothing happened. But I felt feeling start to come back. He invited me to hang out with him, then again the next day, but then canceled. Then I never heard from him again, and I don't know why.
Suddenly all the pain has come back. I'm really, really, really really confused. I don't get how I am not over the first ex, and I don't know why he wanted to hang out with me then just stop. And I don't know what to do about the 2nd ex. He want to marry me.
So confused... help me?
