This is why if I ever have kids i’ll Raise them with a simple motto in hand: “Haters gonna hate. Fuck ‘em.” I was bullied a lot as a kid for being fat, and to deal I just decided that if people were going to be mean, I would ignore them completely and go about my life with the people who weren’t going to be mean. It meant I had a smaller crowd, but it also meant I learned how to choose friends wisely so I didn’t grow into an adult who hangs out with someone who would care that I bought a Mazda three over keeping a shitty truck. Life’s to short to give people even the time of day if they make you unhappy (unless arguing with them tickles your biscuits).
