Hey man. Virtually everybody in this world has been bullied or traumatized by something. Make sure that you undestand that this does not define whomever you are.

Right now you are running away instead of fighting.

1. Don t be shy. Get yourself into groups as often as you can. If you notice people are annoyed by you or shut you out. Try to find one or two people you can trust and work with. Or try to find some rapport with the bad ones in some way. I often get Amogged or Amog back, but after that you can be good friens. just because you have looked up each others boundries. Try it!

2. Never turn down girls because of outside factors like others or bullies. People will always be getting jealous, trying to get you down, or make remarks or even try to threaten you. This will only get worse as soon as you get more succesfull. Make sure you are able to deal with this. Go to a self defence class if you have to.

Hope this helps man. Stop running and start doing things. If bullies show up, make sure you do things better then you did before. Just try to chat or tell him a joke, but if you run for cover you will always be the hunted.

Good luck.
