Have you ever been screwed by someone because you expressed how you felt?

I recently went to Houston Texas with my business partner/close friend and a group of other people to aquire prroperties. While everyone was out viewing properties my business partner said we were going to work on something else. So him and I seperated from the group and did our own deals on properties, or so he says. During that trip he accomplished nothing and made it seem like he accomplished so much and had so many deals, yet we had made no money. On the day we went to aquire properties the other guys who had gone to view the properties had felt that since my business partner and I hadnt seen the properties, we shouldnt try and aquire them for pennies on the dollar. Later on that day when everyone met up again, I was asked how I felt about the situation, after already discussing with each one individually how I felt about the situation and their role in it. Since I had already talked to everyone and calmed down my answer to them was I am neutral and am disappointed with the whole trip and situation. I had then recieved an email from my business partner stating that he was through with me and that he is very disappointed in my decision to remain neutral and that I didnt back him up. Since then he has continued to insult me and my character while ignoring the fact that he owes me a lot of money. Have you been in a situation like this where you feel your time, and money has been wasted? Or for that matter feel like you have worked so hard and because things crashed you are unsure if you can do it yourself? How do you get out of this situation and try and build yourself back up and feel better about yourself?
