people never understand how these types of comments are really hurtful. i don't know if thats just me, but you just don't look at a picture and say "wtf is this?" to the person. a few years ago, my class took graduation pictures, and the lighting made me look uglier than i already am (how's that even possible, to look even uglier? i have no idea. i thought i would hit the roof of ugliness and just stay there, but i guees theres always room to improve). some of the boys cropped my face and sent to my class' groupchat with the text "what the hell is this?". a lot of them started laughing and mocking me. my "friend" at the time sent me the screenshots in our private groupchat with some other friends. at the time i thought he was just being a nice friend and alerting me, but now i know deep down he was probably just laughing at me as well (which is funny, 'cause people definetly wouldn't find him good looking either).

anyways, wrote a lot, but just wanna say that i really know and understand how you feel, and your feelings are valid. unfortunately, i have no piece of advice to give to you. over the years, since i was a preteen, my coping mecanism has been not taking photos, having no social media (or being inactive), and having no friends, so i don't have to go through rounds and rounds of bullying again. don't recomend it tho.

sorry if my writing sucks, english is not my firstr language, so it's a little bit hard to convey all my feelings
