You might consider selling your high grade cards and moving into lower grade, but great looking, cards? For me, it's fun to find really nice looking lower grade gems.
Collecting can still be fun but you need to decide what's best for you. One suggestion, take your time and sleep on it for a while (weeks or a few months). Many times the answer becomes clear after mulling it over for a while.

Obviously just knowing that I have one bad apple casts doubt about everything else I have in my collection. At the same time, I'm so far in that it's tough to imagine just bailing and getting out. But maybe I'll have to think about some middle ground. Just not sure what that looks like other than I'm probably going to be really gun shy about buying high grade stuff going forward.
