Me too and your story is similar to mine. I think of it this way: if I weren't bitter about that, I'd be bitter about some other thing that happened to me instead because perfection can't exist. Every positive attribute comes at the expense of a negative one. For instance, lots of muscle costs agility and increases caloric requirement. There is no way to say how I would be if I were raised differently, but I'm sure I'd regret something.
