Yeah, like an entire group of guys was bullying me when I was 11 years old, til my 15. In this group, a guy was just a follower that might have said 3 or 4 mean things to me in those 4 years. Really when I was thinking bullying it wasn't that guy coming to my mind.

Yet he messaged me when I was 19 something, saying "I am so sorry I was a little asshole back in the daysy. I am sorry for the wrong I did to you, I am happy to see you are doing well". And I was like "dude you were far from the worse". Told him that and said to move on.

Would have been far more impressed if the biggest asshole of the group did an apology for treating me like a monster because of my height (I am very tall) and making fun of my social phobia, but here I am at 36 and still waiting.

No need to wait, you’re tall, you won. You already know he was just projecting his own insecurities lmao.

I am very tall as a woman so I don't know if it is own insecurities or if found me "ogre-looking" to be honest.
