    Because I have hard time ignoring my appearance issues because people bring it up so often. I cannot comprehend being able to ignore those…

      Who’s bringing up your appearance issues? Friends? Family? Bullies? Strangers in the street?

        Ofc not families, but social peers and strangers bring these up. I don’t have friends… Maybe so many people are just bullies?

          That seems… quite odd to me. Are you in grade school? That might explain it.

            No, I am in graduate program of a university. but it does seem like many of them never grew out of grade school…

            Not that they need to be in this sense. In a competition-driven society, you only need to survive yourself, it is a good option to kick someone else down to go up higher. Idk if such manipulation skills would require the “growing up” part.
