I just got laid off from my job. I was there for 2.5 years and was bullied by my boss horribly. I am actually quite thankful that I have a clean break from that place, but I feel totally overwhelmed by all that I am currently managing and carrying emotionally. And none of it seems fair.

I spend a lot of time alone. I am single and feeling it. I have my best girlfriends and family to talk to and lean on, but I still feel alone through my struggles. At the end of the day, it's me spending days upon days alone and working on job applications and interviews. The feeling is palpable. The struggle is real.

I wish I had a partner right now who could cheer me on and cheer me up. It's really difficult for me right now given that my ex husband is remarried so soon after our divorce, and when I am single, alone, and struggling with unemployment.

Why is life so unfair? My bully boss got away with her bullying (HR did nothing), and instead, I was let go. My ex husband badly abused me, yet got remarried right away. He is happy and partnered up. and I am unhappy and alone.

It's not fair. Life is truly unfair, and I am really feeling this today.

I'm sorry you feel like that @Have Hope
I hope you'll find someone and a job that makes you happy
I don't think someone that abuse someone else can be really happy
Usually people that hurt others are unhappy

Thanks for this!

Thanks so much @Vaiana! Maybe I sound like a whiny baby or like I’m feeling too sorry for myself. It’s a rough position I’m in though. And maybe you’re right about my ex husband. It’s just sooo hard right now given everything.
