That's true I guess. It was more that I got picked on, developed a defense mechanism and got turned into a bitch.
However, I don't torment people. I've never gone up to someone (with a group of friends) and abused them in front of a large crowd of people for ten straight minutes. You can't exactly survive public humiliation without having or creating a defense mechanism.
I like to think that I'm less of a bitch these days anyways
It's just a necessary evil in some cases.
I think this point was raised earlier, where some one said that its strange you were picked on if your fairly attractive. Im in agreement- its rare that a hot girl will cop a hard time. People may be a bitch to you, but that is usually for different reasons such as jealousy etc
Overall point, the world is just nicer when your good looking
To the thread starter- how would you describe your 'look'?? If its dorky, maybe look at getting new clothes/haircut/general style. Im not saying change completely and rock up to school in a leather jacket with a cigarette, ppl will just call u a try hard fag, but if u subtly change ur look it can work wonders.
Possibly get into surfing (if u live near a beach) and gym. There both great physcial activities which get ur mind away from everything and allow you to develop as a bit of an individual. Believe me, not only is surfing extremely fun/relaxing, it will give u a healthy tan and love for the outdoors. Also, working out is great especially when u tell no one and let ppl observe the changes for themselves
Dont focus on getting friends, focus on an activity or something you love and get awsome at it. Friends will come once youve shown that you can stand on ur own two feet
