Hey AG, one small bit of advice. Keep in mind that every single person on this planet has their OWN issues. Even though we may be affected by those very issues, it's not about us, it's not personal. All ppl are muddling there way through life as best they can. When you can see that most ppl, in this specific area, are coming from a space of hurt, can we not feel compassion for them. Forgiving them. The best thing you can do is make yourself always available to be reached out to by those ppl. To be unintimidating, whether by your pain, your bitterness, your anger and rage, or even your neediness. they need to know they have a "safe" place to come to and not end up making the situation worse than it already is or was.
I hope this helps. I'm here to help you.
