Hi Mandy.

> ---flutterby: maybe seeing them as developing children also, as you were, and not knowing what abuse can do to someone-- that may help in not giving the bullies so much power.

Yes. That does help some. Thanks.

> >>Maybe I can never meet the approval of anyone from high school while I remain depressed? I don't know. I have not gone to any of our class reunions.<<


> ----flutterby: do you wonder why it's important to you, even to this day, to meet those people's approval??

Good question. In my mind, I am a failure compared to them. I didn't succeed in life by the definitions we had as kids in school.

> do you have to mingle with any of them now?

No.

> Maybe it's your own approval that evades you?

I need to think about this some more.

> ..... maybe you still hear, on occasion, those past tauntings and struggle in not agreeing with them..... (that's what I still do anyway)

I need to think about this some more.

:-)

Thanks, Mandy
