Emo Scene Community

So you are being bullied. There must be something wrong with you right? Ever wonder why the bullies do what they do? The truth is, there is very little difference between us and them. There are three basic kinds of people in the world. The extravert, the balanced, and the introvert. I will explain them all here. First, let's cover the balance person. These people take in as much negative emotions as they give out. They also take in as much positive emotions as they give out. Some of these emotions are generated by themselves, and some of it is generated by others. But because they are balanced, they remain relatively calm and unaffected. Second, the extraverts put out more positive and negative emotions than they take in. This leaves their egos deflated. They are the jocks, cheerleaders and others. They have self-doubt and self-hatred just like anybody. But instead of letting go of it, they push it outwards onto the balanced people, and the introverts. That stuck up girl in your class that constantly puts you down, probably doesn't even agree with what she's saying. The reason she's saying it is because makeup and surgeries have done all they can, and their own self-image can only be elevated further by bringing everybody else down. Think about that. They probably dislike themselves more than YOU dislike them. Lastly, the introverts, take IN more than we put out. We let it build and it leaves us feeling over inflated, like we're going to pop. This can lead to other things, which I'll cover later. Like the extraverts, we too have self-image issues. We just internalize it rather than externalizing it. And that is the ONLY difference. We emos tend to use the phrase "don't judge me" all the time. Perhaps too often. It has lost it's meaning and impact. The truth is, we all judge each other all the time. These judgements can be negative OR positive. "She's Pretty" is still a judgement. A more correct phrase would be "don't condemn me". But nobody wants to be condemned. All three groups of people need friendship, reinforcement and caring. I remember when I was in school. My personal bully picked on my because I was bi. At first, I let it get to me, until I realized what I've been writing about. Then one day at lunch, he walked by and said "screw you homo", I smiled and replied, "ok, where and when?". Then I chuckled and asked if he'd like to sit. He didn't. Not at first. Eventually though, he did and we became friends somewhat. He'd still poke fun while in groups, and you know what? I let him. Big deal. It no longer bothered me because I knew the reason behind it: he had problems emoting and was jealous. The thing is...you never know somebody's story until you ask them.
