Dok has a good answer. Only issue is with #2 as it could be explained in more detail.
Just because you believe in something doesn't prevent something different from happening. Just because I don't believe in rain doesn't mean I don't get wet if I'm standing in the rain.
Belief is powerful when combined with intent. Manipulating belief can be helpful in that it can build boundaries. For example with rain.. if I'm not yet ready to believe that rain exists, I could believe it doesnt, assign the pitter patter noise to something else, close blinds and windows to avoid seeing it, use some type of air scent to avoid smelling it. Limiting the input from senses and then opening them up gradually helps prepare for addressing the concern/belief.
Dysfunction and fear are a result of being overwhelmed by energy. Manipulating belief helps to slow down the flow of energy. This helps put boundaries for what's trying to sit in your energy. Boundaries are great and allow you to experience what you want to experience, not what other people want you to experience.
As for your other concern, feeling a little unwell or jilted.. I would say to meet that energy with love. Negative emotions like hate, hurt, resentment (not that you're feeling those emotions, just that they're very powerful ones) heal from love. Not superficial love, but the unconditional type. The type that someone stabs you in the back 50 fifty times, twists the knife, throws you off a bridge, curses the sht out of you, and after somehow surviving you decide to love them. Not because they deserve it but because you deserve it. Loving dysfunctional people heals you, not them.
Loving people who have made you feel poorly is possible if you take the time to understand them. Each person has their own background that has made them into who they are. Each person often has things they haven't told you about, that have hurt them deeply. People are beautifully complex. When stressed in just the right ways anyone can become the devil. People are far from perfect and many like to pretend they're a version of perfect. Well. Most people aren't ok lol. So knowing that everyone is dealing with being human too helps develop compassion for @ssholes.
I think it's ok to love people on a basic human level (unconditionally) even when they're not capable of loving us back. When we give love to others, we're also giving love to ourselves because other people are connected to us.
Also, the body stores the emotions we experience. It might be helpful to do some bodywork to help release the accumulation of emotions over the years. Massage is my preferred method, but I'm sure there are many ways to help the body flow better.
The overall idea is to focus on you. When you love people it allows you to "reclaim" your energetic investment in them. Then you reinvest in yourself... and you find ways to love and celebrate who you are. Each of us deserves to be loved in a healthy way. In a way that makes us grow and helps us discover ourselves.
