Bullet Dodged!
Bullet Dodged!
I was bullied in middle school for my grades and my looks.
I was a very short, shy, overweight girl. I was eventually
diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder that can cause delayed puberty and
growth.
Once I was put on meds to regulate the condition, I was much
better.
By the time I hit twenty-one, I look very different than I
did as a teenager due to my hormones finally working properly.
One of the guys that used to bully me adds me on social
media. I believe in second chances, so i add him. About two minutes later, I
get a private message.
Guy: “hey, what’s up?”
Me: “studying for finals. You?”
Guy: “oh, nothing much.”
I go back to my exam review. A few minutes later, i get
another message.
Guy: “d***, you grew up good. Real good.”
Me: “um… thanks?”
Guy: “you were super awkward-looking in middle school.
But i see that’s not a problem anymore.”
Me: “not really sure what to say to that.”
Guy: “I’m complimenting you. Not used to that?”
Me: “it’s kinda backhanded, don’t you think? We were
all awkward in middle school.”
Guy: “geez, lighten up. I’m paying you
a compliment. You should say thank you.”
Me: “yeah, no.”
Guy: “still uptight, nerdy, and b****y, i see.”
Me: “I’m deleting you now.”
Guy: “c’mon, give me a chance! I’m just having a bad
day.”
Me: “nope. Bye!”
He was still typing when I blocked him.
