I had one friend in senior school, but if she decided she wasn't speaking to me for some reason, she'd side with the bullies. It's only in the past few years I've actually realized how she used to treat me even when we were supposedly friends; putting me down in front of people, making out that any achievement I managed was nothing. It's funny how you can't see it at the time.


I had a best friend all through high school and it was funny after we graduated we even worked together for several years. It was after that I saw how our "friendship" worked. When I first got on this group I was reading a post about people who were Narcissists and it really made sense. She could act like a friend but could still always feel very superior so our "friendship" was ideal for her personality.

I don't know yet if I have aspergers or not but this is interesting. From preschool though middle school I was bullied by teachers. There was a few kids that tried to but I turned out to be a good fighter and they left me alone.

All the teachers were horrible though. My preschool teacher didn't like my mom so she hit me and kept me separated from the other kids. For the longest I didn't tell because I didn't know it was wrong. Took me years to figure it out. That woman should really be ashamed picking on preschooler.

I was also like that, but then I moved and switched buses, and I now have a friend on the bus who, despite being a 14 year old NT, is mature and capable of intelligent conversation. If I try to talk to anyone else, they will twist my words into something disgusting, then tell everyone they know that I'm a pervert. Then I get bullied because they think I like "porn guns". At least until I pushed one of them down a conveniently placed stairwell. Now they tend to just avoid me.
