Bittersweet sorrow is a contradictory emotion where a circumstance or event causes sadness, but the event is also good for you and /or others. For example, your friend and co-worker is leaving because they were promoted but have to move to another city. Your sad to say good bye to your friend, but your happy for them because they have success!
