Thank you, @

I've probably always been a little weird,
haha.. most say I'm a little odd, eccentric, or 'unique', but I don't like when people act like it's a bad thing and drive people away from you, ya know? I think it's because I sometimes have esosteric intetests and I'm open and get enthusiastic about it. Or don't care to hide it. Plus my social anxiety, maybe. It's an odd combination, perhaps. Caring what people think, but still wanting to be yourself and accepted for it. lol. I have always had social anxiety, but I didn't start having anxiety problems really bad till my mid 20's. I think having kids is what did it. I think I also probably drink too much coffee. I've also been told I'm bipolar. I don't take any medication for any of it, though. I've tried, but I didn't care for how it changed my personality. I've struggled with depression. I usually hide in my house or avoid people when I get depressed because, yes, I'm very familiar with how some people can act about it. That's horrible how she treated you. She does sound jealous, picking apart everything you do.
Yeah, I confronted her in a really casual way. All I said was, 'I heard you told so and so I was weird and not to date me', like I was talking about the weather. She looked at my like a deer in the headlights, I just changed the subject, and we never talked of it again. I just wanted her to know I knew. I never confided in her like some of my other friends, though. We weren't really the same and I didn't feel she really understood me.
