Miss Hepburn - indeed I am not bitter. I find solace in my faith in God and in the knowledge that I really care about others, and that those who have used, betrayed and abused me are the evil ones. One day there will be justice and then they will have to answer for their actions. I also find comfort in the knowledge that I really care about others, and that if someone wanted to be a real friend - and buy that I mean a real friend who stays a friend, not someone who is a friend for a while and then disappears because that is not a real friend - then I would be a real friend to them too. I would stand by them through the good and the bad times. That makes me real - and the traitors, the abusers, the liars, those that disappear - fake.
