Most people will probably tell you that high school was not the best time of my life.
Beyond the usual problems of being a teenager and finding yourself in the middle of childhood and adulthood, this is a time when bullies suddenly run wild.
With that in mind, @matthewanchel asked his fellow TikTok users to share the most trivial thing someone did for them in high school and whether or not they forgave them.
He also shared his own story. He said it was pretty obvious he had the case of a sophomore guy special year, and he got a message one night since Crush said he wanted to meet up.
When he got close to being crushed, he discovered the hard way someone had pretended to be him. He did not know who did it until someone sent him a message 15 years later to acknowledge.
User @ chloestrattoo.n shared a rather gut-wrenching story from middle school.
She said she was obese in middle school, so children would pick her up by dipping carrots in ranch clothes and throwing them at her at lunchtime.
The crow carrots would then stick to her back after she left the café. She said they would then taunt her for it.
While his story didn’t have a happy ending, the video’s comments were very uplifting.
“Girl I can’t focus on this story when your eyes are so beautiful,” wrote one user.
“Subject girl but you are literally amazing,” wrote another.
“Why are children so tiny?” a third were questioned.
User @pollypistol took the move in a completely different way, admitting she was the high school bully.
“I was bullied and abused at home, so I was a hurt child hurting other children,” she said.
She explained that one day, she was sitting with the popular children at lunchtime when a child from the special education class sat with them, and she told her directly “no one wanted her to sit ”With them.
When one tear rolled down the girl’s chest, @pollypistol knew she had to start a different act.
“I have never been so ashamed of myself,” she said. “I decided to make a change.”
She said she started volunteering with the special education class and it was a point to be friendly to every child in the room. She also explained in her video comments that she apologized to the girl for bullying and they became friends – turning out to have “a lot in common. “
“This is the kind of glue we should have,” wrote one user.
“It will give you a lot of strength to admit you are wrong and even more strength to change your ways,” said another.
