To The People That Might Not Know

Don't let other people define who you are. Middle school sucks, it was the worst for me but trust me, high school/secondary school will get so much better just hang in there.

 

I'd also caution against anticipating high school will be better, people told me it'd be such a great time, but I've spent the last four years disappointed but yes it was better than middle school.

 

Im glad I could help also don't worry about what kids say some of them are nubs anyway keep trying to do what i have told you in p'ms in he past.

 

This is what i'v learned throughout elementary school because I got called a guy for my short hair.
Don't care what they say. If they call you names, or make fun of you, tell them "Thank you, I really appreciate it." and walk away confident. They'll get frustrated, and go pick on someone else, even though it's still not okay, it'll probably be better for you and give you more confidence. I'm glad that you've seen my post, and posted this. Coming out to the community was one of my biggest fears, and it seems like it was yours, or is still yours. Just remember this, don't care what anyone else says.

 

Hey, school sucks. A lot. After high school, it dosent matter anymore. And years down the road you will bump in to one of these jerks. The difference is their lives will be messed up then. They never learned to manage adversity.
While you on the other hand, like so many before will have learned to thrive through it.

Point is don't give up. Don't let it get you down too much. In years to come you will be better for having an understanding of how to deal.

Sounds to me like you are on the right path here stick with it.

 

Gotta learn to not care what others think of ya. Do what you do, for you.

Also, learn to laugh at yourself as well.

 

Interesting, Your having a hard time in school and that is not a bad thing. Dealing with adversity at a young age can be a great thing if you can keep your mind straight and stay positive. School is but a simple step into adult hood, use these bad experiences as fuel to do great things in your life as adult.

And btw being gay is not a bad thing, being straight is not a bad thing, listening to these little fools is a bad thing, who cares, I mean why care about what they think or say? Do you actually care what they think? The heck with em and other that follow them.

As for your parents, thats a pretty tought thing to deal with, I have seen friends deal with harsh parents, the only thing I could say about that is deal with it, they after all are putting a roof over your head/clothes on your back and food in your stomach, if I was you id start making plans for moving out with a carer in mind and money in the bank between age 18-21 at least that way your well on your way to being a productive member of society with a bright future.

Anyways good luck little man

 

I'm in the same grade as you and I know what it's like to get crap from people who don't know what it's like to feel alone and not understood. It's good to walk away and ignore those people but I've also found that it can make me feel better to just cry it all out sometimes. You don't have to be strong all the time and really nobody always is. Hang in there and know you're never alone. A whole community stands behind you. I know you don't know me well but feel free to pm me if you ever just wanna talk.

 

@ThatKidArshi, be who you are. If others can't appreciate the beauty of who you are, then it is their loss. I understand that sometimes, life may seem bleak. But, you can't see the light until you see the dark first, you can't see the beauty until you see the ugly things first. But, no matter how bleak the future seems, push through it. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we will always be here for you on ECC. Don't let other people define who you are. Only you know who you are, and be yourself. Look into your heart, and be what you want to be. It doesn't matter how other people see you, as there will always be people that like you, people that admire you, and mostly, people that treasure your friendship. I do not know you too well on ECC, but I would be more than glad to become friends with you. If you ever need someone to talk to, I will be there. Sometimes, we have two images. This applies to everyone. We have the image of what we want others to see us as, and then we have our true self, the person that only we know. This applies to depression as well, don't let the depression be your identity. Be who you want to be, stay strong, and find your true self. I admire you for sharing this. Sharing something like this takes strength and courage, both of which you have.

 

I agree with @Exilenela, just be yourself. Along the lines of what @Epicmiti said, I've had similar things happen to me. Although I'm not in elementary school, some of these things happen to me today. Not to bash on some ecc players, but I've been sometimes mistaken for a girl (I don't care my skins a carebear lol) on here. In real life, I'm ALWAYS told I'm more feminine than masculine. But in honesty, you should not worry about what others say. @ThatKidArshi This might be "touchy" and if asked I'll edit it out, but God has a plan and a reason. I use him as my stregnth and to not worry about what others think of me. After all, it's not their choices and opinions that should matter to you. It should be you.

 

Wanna know what i do to "mean people"? I do that good old trailer park boys Ricky's knock knock joke. Its a warning

 

Honestly though, you shouldn't feel compelled to take things out of posts just because other's might be uncomfortable with it. I don't think it's actually possible to put something out on the internet without it offending someone, and I can hardly see how what you posted could be interpreted as anything "touchy".

 

• Politics, religion and suicide are common “touchy subjects”, however they are not the only ones. Should a staff member ask you to change a subject they feel is touchy and/or is causing the direction of chat to deviate towards an argument or flame war, you must drop the subject immediately.

If it becomes a problem I will change it, that is why. But I doubt it will become a problem

 

Meh... Mine as well tell my story and how I got over it.
So throughout elementary school this one guy had a bone to pick with me and did mean things like shove me into a wall and throw like a kickball or something at me. The teachers thought we were playing and didn't do anything about it.

My solution was:
Find those who like you for you.
My best friends, whom of which are girls, and one of which is my girlfriend now, are my best friends because they help me forget about my past. Finding people you love hanging out with and talking to is the key to happiness. Those people that bully you and call you names and stuff? Don't worry about them. They're stupid. They don't know who you are and how great of a person you are. I personally have not talked to you much recently but you were a cool cat when I did.

 

^ pretty much all my friends are girls. Well, all my really close ones.

 

Me too... A lot of the guys I text say my text style or whatever seems girly but like when you talk to 4 girls on a regular basis I mean

 

Don't worry bonnie will save you all.
