Good morning Nellie! Thanks for liking the av! A sunset in Tassie it is :)….Your’s isn’t too shabby either just quietly *flutters eyelashes and smirks*

Bullying, eh? Yeah, it’s something that I encountered. I went to 26 different schools or something, and fought the bullies in every one of them. Even though I was a bit of a sissyish looking kid with blonde hair, skinny, and quietish when new, I never lost a fight. The bullies soon learnt to just leave me alone, and I hung out with the other pariahs on the periphery, whether it was the nerds, or the feral kids. I never tried to be one of the popular kids, and never really cared. As for my nonchalance, I think that I truly didn’t give a flying proverbial if anybody liked me or not, even though it saddened and puzzled me why I was different to other kids. When I was in my early teens I can remember shamefully reading Carl Jung’s ‘Guide to Abnormal Psychology’ to try and figure out what be wrong with me…When I was in my late teens I used to seek out bullying types in pubs and what not just to give them a ‘tune-up’. It was very silly of course, and I haven’t thumped anybody since 1995, so I’ve learnt to control myself. Yet, bullying still rears it’s ugly head now and again and I’m slowly learning how to be assertive without being aggressive…bullies are cowards at heart, and sadly a bit of fisticuffs is the only language that the troglodytes are able to understand. It’s a shame that it’s always the one’s that stick out that seem to incur their attentions, eh? If only the bozos would stick to butting heads with one another, eh?
