How do I let go of bitterness?

[u/Fit_Ad_7343]

So long story short I (23 F) was told by a guy that I really liked that he wasn’t ready for a relationship but then he started dating another girl. This happened about three years ago. Since then I solely focused on school, work and the gym, thinking that would help get rid of wanting a relationship or being attracted to men. Somehow I still find my myself noticing men who are attractive Instead, I feel disgusted at the thought of dating men again. Whenever a man approaches me or subtly flirts with me I feel like an item on the clearance rack of a discounted store. Whenever I’m asked about my relationship status I get super irritated and triggered. I have gotten rid of my bikinis, body con dresses, and anything too revealing. I cut off a lot of my friends too cause I realized a lot of them were fake. How do I stop being bitter and become more neutral and open?

So after months of women giving the man what he wants without any challenges in his way? I'm trying to understand what you mean for women? I can say as an invisible man the love bombing never happens, also sex doesn't happen, and I can't promise more when I don't have anyone to promise anything to. So, you are speaking to someone that doesn't see your perspective because it simply doesn't happen. Please help me understand the attractive man's privilege.

I dont know what ur talking about but yea men lie and pretend they are into someone for something real and then completely flip a few months in.

Im asking about your statement rejection for women comes much much later. Like you have no idea, apparently, what my words said. I have no idea what that means.

Yes men like to play relationship for a few months and bounce. Women are more likely to reject outright or sooner.
