I went through some really weird phases through middle school. Elementary school was my shitty school days story, middle school I had one friend and everyone else thought I was annoying and weird (mostly because of this one girl, but I'm not going to go into that) I didn't really let it bother me too much (it was better than Elementary school, that's for sure), though the older I got the more depressed I started getting with my lack of physical friends and with how much people used to take advantage of my friendship; even now I don't have that many real friends, and when I go out with people, I am always really awkward and quiet. My lack of real friends left with me with a huge loss of intimacy too, physical contact with anyone makes me feel so weird, I really dislike it. Any real friendships I have with guys that start to get a little more serious, I automatically start backing out of. I remember in 8th I decided to go to the dance they had, I got a ton of compliments one how I dressed since I like getting fancy and shit, but spent majority of my time at a table alone eating gummy bears.
My Highschool life has been great though, I have a decent amount of acquaintances, and I am mostly known by everyone in our school as "that girl who draws really well"
