>>77033567I was on my road to being a fat fuck in elementary school. My parents didn't care, they thought it was "cute baby fat." I was constantly bullied for it verbally
even in a CHRISTIAN school, mind you. So I went and lost the weight. I later ended up making friends with the people who bullied me and they were some of my best friends.
In middle school, I started watching Anime and reading manga. I got crazy into it. Then when I realized how autistic it was making me seem to people, I bullied myself and got myself out of it. I still enjoy it, but I'm not public about it.
In highschool, I had all kinds of girls come onto me. I've always been just another /co/ nerd, yet if you tried to rate me, I'd probably qualify as an "alpha" although I hate those shitty rating systems.
I never asked for this. But it's the bullying that got me here and broke down the walls of my "special snowflakeness" and pride in order to be an overall better person. I appreciate where the bullying got me, it's a form of inspiration that positive words can't give.
It may not work for some if they're too caught up in themselves, but if you're bullied, you need to take it as criticism and make a change in yourself rather than seeing it as a personal attack against your special snowflake bubble.
