They’ll say you’re angry now.
That you’re bitter.
That you’ve changed.
And you have changed.
But not in the way they’re trying to spin it.
You’re not bitter.
You’re just no longer naive.
You’re no longer swallowing lies just to keep someone’s ego fed.
You’re no longer pretending crumbs are enough to live on.
You’re no longer mistaking emotional labor for love.
They confuse your wisdom with hostility
because they were never prepared for a version of you who could see them clearly.
You’ve simply outgrown the illusion.
The one where you were responsible for other people’s comfort, dysfunction, or denial.
Now?
You know better.
And knowing better doesn’t make you bitter.
It makes you powerful.
