Bullying: I'm stuck in the past?

Question

I'm 17 now, but I was bullied when I was age 12-14 (middle school). Now, I feel like I can't connect with people my age, and when I see kids who are around age 13 I feel like I'm their age. I also feel like a lot more comfortable around kids age 13ish than kids my age. How can I get over the past and move on?!

Answer 1

Grab your balls and pull down real hard; feel them and know you have a pair again.  

Now go grab a beer and relax!  You will make it buddy.  

Answer 2

Try to move out of your comfort zone into more mature environments than those of these youngsters.

Develop life skills to help you for your future. Focus on your strengths not your weaknesses. Best wishes. UK

Answer 3

First off, just think of all the similarities you have with people your age.

Second, know that NO ONE is the same.

Third, If you've got any friends your age, invite them over to your house when your parents are gone or go somewhere that you can hang undisturbed, then get irresponsibly drunk. Or smoke a bunch of weed (my personal favorite), but drinking is something that has been known to bring men together for billions of years.

And maybe you feel comfortable around young kids because they respect you, and because of whatever confidence issues you have with people your age, 17 year olds do not. That's why I suggested you offer them a some rum or weed. Us 17 year olds love that ****, and I'll bet you do to.
