I find myself getting bitter at women in general, after what my ex put me through (cheating, gaslighting, emotional abuse). I don't want to get bitter, because the more time I spend on thinking about her is time I waste. How do I not get bitter and just ignore women? If I try not to get bitter, I find myself softening a bit, and talking to women, and inevitably they'll say something to show their true colors.

How do you guys stay strong without getting bitter?
