Someone has been taking advantage of your good will. This has got to stop. Standing up for yourself will cause fireworks to erupt. That's better than enduring ongoing abuse. A loved one warned you about this opportunist. You brushed aside their advice, claiming it came from a place of jealousy. Now they have been proven correct, you should make a sincere apology. In the future, take your friend's advice more seriously. They're obviously aware of red flags that escape your attention.
