You’re entitled to those feelings, though - very few people genuinely like being treated badly and he is behaving unreasonably towards you, on top of everything else he did.
Do you feel the Facebook group is more helpful or setting you back right now? It’s still your choice what to do, of course, but if you’re being shamed for being righteously angry (not “bitter” as some would put it - bitterness would mean you couldn’t be happy for other people. In any case, bitterness is an understandable response to being screwed over!), might be an idea to take a step back for a while.
Thanks for this!
