Remembering the past

One time I was the overweight child growing up and I remember being in gym class and I was watching all the pretty girls step on the gym teachers knee before they jumped up to the bar in order to hold on to the bar to see how long you can keep your chin above it and I was like 14 and I was the last one to go and when I did it everyone laughed at me and then everyone was just like did you know you put your foot on the knee of the teacher and I thought it was just something everybody did and even the gym teacher gave me this weird look and I didn't understand but I sence something going on now that I think about it today. Ita something I never forgot because I was made fun of for it but I remember watching specifically every girl doing it and then when I did it everyone treated me like I was a weirdo. I remember him being fired as well but I think that guy was a predator.

In my school life I had been very underweight. I was super lanky and weighed around 88 pounds at the age of 19. I was made fun off and was accused by people that I was suffering from a bad disease. Now I weigh 138 pounds but still nobody loves me. So looks don't matter but people who can understand you do matter.

@littlepuppywantanewlife wow! I'm sorry to hear about that :( Just curious how tall are you?
I have crohns disease and because of that i often have bad weight problems. Im 6 foot tall and once during a bad time of my life i weighed 140 pounds. It was absolutely horrible. I was so sickly skinny and felt horrible about myself but i couldn't help myself. Luckily that was 2 years ago and now im back to 185 pounds :) but my target weight is 200. Of course not all fat tho lol i wanna be muscular.
But i can't imagine being 88 pounds! That is tiny!

The predators are not always obvious.

Often the worst predators are the least obvious like managers and supervisors.

Sad that the kids made fun of the situation yet that's a separate issue from predators.

Never assume because of circumstances that the situation is safe. This holds true for both kids as well as adults.

The least likely circumstances seem to have the most likely hazards. Simply because you never see or expect them happening.

A lion is the predator that picks out the weakest part of the herd ahead of time, never the most strong. Then takes advantage of the circumstances waiting for just the right moment to strike.

Unfortunately it seems some refuse to recognize this in humans.

There's is more than one kind of predator. Yet all predators stalk their victims first and why any kind of information given is dangerous in any situation.
