Especially after your bullshit that I was implying something, which I wasn't. In my previous posts I mentioned that I was mocked and bullied, and that drove me to solitary sports. I was lucky enough that I had a math teacher who was also a wrestling coach who wasn't a jerk, but I still go for solitary sports even now.

Notice I didn't say anything about something being wrong with you. I'm sorry if you still have issues - justified ones - from those days. Hell, I still do, but don't foist your shit off on me and call me things I'm not. I don't appreciate it, "buddy."
