Okay, first we have to change your thought pattern. Did you try everything you could think of to save your marriage? If so then you didn't fail. When something like this happens all the blame usually does not lie with one person.
As for the breaking down......I've been divorced for 5 years but had a 3 year relationship that ended a little over a year ago. I spent 3 months (literally) crying at my desk every day. Some days I would sit there working and the tears would just flow. Others I had to run to the bathroom because the sobbing hurt so bad. So I know. I truely do. I thought it was all my fault, that I must lack something that I couldn't figure out. I mean not only had my xh left me but now this man was leaving too. It couldn't be THEM, right? I finally figured out that I'm a good person. In fact I'm a great person and anyone who doesn't see that.......it's their loss. You'll see it too. I promise. (and after you see what a great person "I" am you might start to see what a great person you are). :o). I'm just kidding I re-read the way I wrote that and that's what it sounded like I meant. Instead of changing it I thought I'd make a joke.
