Yeah even if it did, I'm not going to be a jerk about it and hold it against you being immature. I don't need to spend energy on that type of negativity to others from myself.

You're fine, I appreciate the effort of you reaching out. I mean you didn't know.

I was told by so many adults when I'm older, but I usually have my **** together on the inside more than they did, which ironically I find out most people are more emotionally broken than I am and they don't have nearly as much issues.

I figured it's just that they don't know, you can't blame them. At the same time, I can't help feeling that it did bother me then.

Now it doesn't, but I just get tired being thought as something I'm not when I'm fighting to get out of that spot. I think I've learned bigger life lessons at my earliest age, and when I had the biggest crap my life has ever went through at a very young age. I think from that point on, I'm trying to get back to a happy place that I did have as a kid, but lacked a lot of the resources people had growing up. My social skills were stunted, as in I know how to make friends, and be a good friend, but I didn't know how to say no. I didn't know people I trusted can really degrade you in a way in saying, when you are older. When in fact, it wasn't what they meant at all, they were avoiding in giving me any advice. I figured when I was going through a lot, they used that as an excuse then left me.

I had to learn how to be myself and not what others think of me.

I think I knew that as a kid, but didn't know how to till now.
