No, not anymore.
In high school people liked to use me as the rumour target because I was quiet. Make me look like a complete nutter, a violent psycho (I used to get called psycho). Sounds funny, but for me it was a livning nightmare. Turned the whole school against me. I got in so much trouble, people litterally wanted to beat me up, teachers sent me to a counsellor (because the rumours reached them and they took the word of delinquents over mine). I had nobody in school or at home who was willing to believe my side. It was horrible.
They were stupid petty rumours too. Why did everyone in school believe them? People who say you shouldn't let rumours get to you: Sometimes they can be difficult to escape. In my case they ruined my highschool life, now I'm having to catch up with my courses because of the anger and frustration I went through back then.
Glad I'm out of that dump.
