Getting over abuse

Hi,my ex husband emotionaly and sexually abused me for years, more emotionally and occasionally sexually. I left him 18 months ago, I'm still single after this, people I know ask about me getting with someone else, I haven't said anything about the abuse so they don't know.
I want to be able to be with someone else but I'm aware that I'm not ready.
I'm not ugly, but I'm so unsure about meeting someone else, my ex has made me feel ugly and not worth someone else liking me.
I am aware of both, 1-he madee feel shit to keep me
2- but whilst he may have wanted to keep me regardless, I can't be attractive to someone else.
In my lucid times I'm aware that I'm actually attractive to people bit then i don't feel like I'm "cool" or worth it. How do I deal with feeling good enough!
