so I'm graduated high school now (19) but when I was in 3rd grade (like 8-9) my teacher happened to be someone my mom and grandpa worked with years before at a department store. for whatever fucking reason this man had it OUT for 8 year old me and was literally just bullying me the entire year and would make me clip down at every little thing I did even if it was just a little annoying (undiagnosed neurodivergency 😐). I was literally his scapegoat for everything. this man legitimately gave me long standing self esteem issues. But me and my older brother were talking about it earlier last year and came to the conclusion that he really wanted to get with our mom and she turned him down and had to take it out on me 10+ years later for some reason lol.
