>>2527182Highschool here sucked. My friends sucked. Kids tried to bully me more (same story, new kid, fat, let's fuck with him). I'd keep to myself, sitting in the back of the room reading, not bothering anyone, and I'd just get shit thrown at me. All of my friends were duplicit, they'd all talk about me behind my back to eachother so much that to this day I can't trust anyone. My best friend was gone, we'd talk on AIM, but it wasn't the same. Sophomore year was the first year here, it went by a blur, I finished with a 1.9 GPA just for lack of trying.
Junior year was the same problems, my "good friends" here all eventually revealed to me that they'd always hated me, and were just tugging me along for a joke. Spring of that year I kept to myself, made myself lose 70 pounds, and break every stereotype that I fit. Became good friends with a guy, he moved away that summer, talk to him very sparingly.
I hear about my best friend going on these adventures with people, just these late night car rides with his friends. People talk about going to Wendy's at 1 am for a frosty run, about racing their cars on the highway at 4 am. I'm a night person, I would've loved to do any of this. Instead, all I had was my computer and World of Warcraft, those people became my friends.
Now I'm in college, I've written off everyone from my life except that best friend, whom I keep in touch with, and my girlfriend. I haven't talked to anyone else from highschool, and never plan on it. I didn't hate my school, but I've never felt so disassociated with anything in my life.
I'll never name my children Luke, Mason, Jeff, or Louis, I'd end up hating them. I'll never forget those people who caused me so much immense unhappiness for no reason, just to see me be unhappy.
