Read/Post Comments (2) I'm 25. |
2010-07-19 10:40 PM I guess people do change. I'm pretty good at holding a grudge. I got teased a lot in middle school, and I've found it difficult to completely forgive those who did me wrong. After high school graduation I was pretty sure I'd never see any of those people again, but then a little thing called Facebook was invented and a few months ago one kid who just loved to pick on me asked to be my friend. Of course I accepted so he could peruse through my photos and choke on my success. Just today I saw he was tagged in some photos. He was playing with a child. He looked happy, like he enjoyed it. It was jarring and bizarrely sweet. Of course I know that it's foolish to judge someone based on how they were at 12, but trust me, my teasing was so brutal I just figured that everyone who partook in it was a bad person, inside and out. For all I know, this guy could have murdered someone, but according to Facebook, he likes to play with little kids and he's probably not the same monster who made my life a living hell ten years ago, which somehow makes me feel better. Sometimes I wonder if those bullies regret how they treated people or if I'll ever receive an apology from any of them. Probably not, but at least I'll have Facebook to keep tabs.
