Friends..... Oof

Once upon a time, I rarely had any friends.

It was a hard time for me from middle school through high school when it came to friends.

I was an 'odd child' not gonna lie.

Through elementary I was mute, so people saw me as odd. I had really bad social anxiety because I was bullied by a teacher and student while growing up. Two teachers actually, so that really had an impact as to how I interact with others.

Middle school I wasn't that known or often looked at. I was known as being nerdy but sporty. I was definitely the tomboy and athletic type, but that still didn't guarantee me some solid friends.

However I did have a few acquaintances here and there.

In high school, oof, that was a war zone.

I was more known, basically being nerdy, sweet and sporty. Had a lot of toxic people around me until eventually I was mainly alone.

Now in college, I feel as though I really did find my group to be around and healthy friends. I don't speak to anyone from High school and that's just how things are sometimes.

I learned that the older you get, the more you'll find the group of friends for you.

How are your friends?

Do you think you're around a good set of people? Are they treating you well? If not, want to let it out?

I PURPLE YOU! <33
