Ugh, finding out some cute girl had a crush on you after they stop having a crush on you was the worst thing.
Like when I was 8, this girl was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen, and one day I overheard her saying "Yeah I used to like Marty but now I'm going out with Adrian..."
('like' meaning what it did back then)
And I regretted never asking her out because I had no self confidence when it came to girls liking me, and the idea that she would ever be interested in me was absurd.
my only friend in middle school was a jewish kid who would insult me when other people were around
oh, and for a few weeks after this lifelong friend of mine changed schools to mine, until he realized that there were no benefits to my friendship
it was really heart-wrenching having to dodge my mom's questions about why tim never came around anymore
i had a friend like this in elementary school
he hung out with us all the time but as soon as some of the kids he considered cool came around he'd make fun of us and try to pretend he wasn't our friend
what a shit-heel
I never made too many friends through school, partly because I had major social skill problems - both in thanks to abuse at home, and to mental problems that were made worse by said abuse - and I just wasn't really interested in most people.
It's not like I ever felt people weren't worth my attention or some arrogant nonsense, I just really didn't find much common ground with most folks.
I can two people I was really good friends with between the ages of seven and sixteen.
The first, Dale, was a kid I met during the summer, whom I liked immediately. Like, for the first and only time ever in my life, I was basically visiting him or he was visiting me on a near-daily basis. He and his brother and I hung out constantly, watching the 60s Batman or playing NES, and it was a blast. But shortly after second grade began his family moved and I never really saw him again.
The second, my buddy Joseph whom I met in high school, is my best friend of nearly ten years. He's got a lot of growing up to do, but he's trying really hard to be independent and he's willing to take risks I could never go through with.
I've had a couple other friends from those years, and I keep in touch with at least one of them from time to time and I'm very happy to have known them.
At the age of ten I was probably wondering what a vagina looked like.
This eventually escalated in a hilarious attempt to seek one out on the internet. I found some porn site through Google, and damn it they censored the vagina with lens flare. I eventually found one after taking way too long, and was confused at the look of the thing.
when i was in elementary school (keep in mind I went to a Catholic elementary school that went from kindergarten to grade 8 so i never had a middle school or junior high) i was pretty well-known amongst kids at my school for my athletic exploits, and for my writing skill.
then, i got to high school where i am one of two thousand other kids and basically everything i consider myself notable for or skilled at, there's some other kid who is better than me.
self esteem took a pretty huge nosedive in grade 9

I still feel a little bad for not knowing what the World Trade Center was on 9/11, and the fact that I was mad the Simpsons was bumped for news coverage that night.
Another class came in and watched CNN with us. The teacher kind of had to explain exactly what Terrorism was, and why it existed, which must have been hard for her.
We saw the second plane hit. We were a little to young to really be emotionally effected by the loss of lives, and we were far from New York, but it was still damn scary.

it has snide adult humor, slapstick, and Bill Clinton playing the sax
I was basically completely alone about 80% of the time
totally
i would've taken an instant shine to you
because in school i tended to hang around dudes who had attitude and were sarcastic
and folks who were misfits in general
i got this thing, even as an adult, where i naturally gravitate towards people who might be rejected by others or looked down on
i guess that's sorta how i feel about myself, so it feels like i belong with folk like that
like they can understand me better, and such
yeah i know
i like it
like, REVENGE TIME, WORLD

see I thought "terrible" was directed at me
over the course of age 11, i shot up to 6'0"
i was gangly as fuck for a year and then i started to fill out
so for a few years, i was the big guy who was way bigger than everyone
then i never grew another inch ever
and i'm still 6'0" today
I've had this sort of attitude as long as I can remember, and I think this is exactly why I took a shining to you, Pony.

whoa
kali
holy shit you just hit me with some powerful nostalgia, sir
he's two years older and introduced me to the world of girls, parties, and (gasp) this forum
everyone in ninth grade should be paired up with a cool eleventh grader who is exactly like themselves in two years
I highly reccomend it
also he was pretty widely respected as a tough customer so I could just shoot my mouth off willy-nilly and he thought it was hilarious
bein' 10 was awesome
I hate you.
When I was ten, Most home computers still used floppies (the actually floppy kind)

hahahahaha same here

Oh and the World Trade Center attack happened, so that blew away a bit of that lovely childhood naivety.
it was a pretty fucking huge ego stroke
Jesus, I was in college when that happened. Young whipper-snappers.
I played Diablo 2 and Warcraft 2 a lot and I also listened to AC/DC, Def Leppard, Extreme, etc pretty much exclusively.
whoops
Like, after they collapsed and everything?
I'm... impressed?

i was a faggot
