One of my daughters is in junior high and she does not fit into the "popular girl" mold. She's kind of a
square peg. She is learning REAL QUICK who the horrible people are.

There are those in the "in crowd" who are kind. However, most of them are selfish, self-centered jerks
who are borderline narcissists and sociopaths.

When you are not part of their inner circle--you get to see--the true colors of these people.

It is the same for you. You are learning who the jerks are. You are learning who to avoid.

Please, please--Do not judge yourself by how jerks behave toward you. People who make fun of others
or hurt people--are not to be admired. Their opinions and what they think and do, should not be taken
seriously. They are not kind, compassionate people. They are not people you would even want to be
around.

There are many people who do not judge people on appearances. It may take longer to find them. But it
will be worth it.

Chin up, buttercup. It's going to be ok.
