I'm trying so hard to not become bitter lol

It makes me feel ugly and old and unwanted. I am fighting it, but those things in life that hurt that way, just won't let up.

Keep working on trying not to be bitter. One thing I learned going through a divorce is that those negative feelings got transferred to my son. Then after conquering my feelings I had to help him overcome his. I know it’s hard, no matter who was at fault there is a feeling of failure. You’re aware and will be able to conquer the feelings.
