Being the weird kid.

[Hohenheimcel]

Everyone has always thought I was weird ever since I was a child. Weird mannerisms, behaviors, interests, whatever, I never hung out with the cool kids or really anyone else at all, instead simply talking with other incels during recess at best. Being short didn't help, I'm only an inch or so below average for my country now that I'm an adult, but considering it's actually somewhat common for kids here to get held back a year or two, or simply lose access to school for some period, I was among the youngest kids in my class, meaning I was shorter and socially dumber than my peers.
You'd think I'd be an easy target to pick on, but I was actually not bullied all that much, even if it did happen, probably because I just looked like I was mentally ill, and so picking on me would be a bit pointless. Nobody calls actual retards retards after all. I've heard of a theory stating that bullying is about establishing a power hierarchy and securing access to mates by putting weaker competitors in their place, so they all probably figured I was never even competition to begin with.
Did any of you grow up in a similar manner, being the weird kid who everyone thinks is retarded?

I envy the invisible. I think one positive trait manlets have going for them is that they're seen as relatively harmless.

I couldn't get on with the normies. I was equally hated by the other fuck-ups. And the strangest part was that the normies gave the other fuck-ups a pass. "They can't help it."

I wasn't given any of the normie privileges, but, unlike the fuck-ups, I wasn't given a free pass either. I was held to normie standards when it came to punishment.

That sucks. Again, I have gotten bullied occasionaly but I can't fully relate to the experience of being everyone's punching bag. Hopefully you're doing better now, in some ways at least.

Yep my whole life I have been called stupid, sometimes even my father who I still have honour for used to call me stupid as a child.
