Social Status in high school?

[Mr Allen]

I have my High School reunion coming up in August this year. I had been thinking about coming to the reunion unannounced and preach Autism awareness acting like a 38 year old teenager to make some individuals feel guilty about making me an outcast and teasing me for my Autism.

About 23 years ago, in May 1995, I attended a so-called "reunion" at my old Secondary school, in actual fact there was only me that turned up out of everybody that was in my year, that and it took me 3 hours to get home from Norton, Sheffield, to Walkley, Sheffield because I don't really know the Bus routes up there.

@Aspie_With_Attitude why "agree" with my post? Are from Sheffield and don't know the Bus routes?

In my teens, the popular trendy ones didn't want to have anything to do with me, and the others were polite to me and said hello to me, but that's just about it. I found it hard to make friends and was never part of a friend group, but did have a couple of friends I talked to - other kids who, like me, weren't part of a group - and occasionally met with after school.

My brain doesn't let me remember much of what school was like until like 7th or 8th grade because I was bullied so much. I learned to fight back in 6th grade and then the crap stopped. In High School, I was on good terms with most, but I was isolated and never did any outside of school social activities/parties. I definitely wasn't a cool kid. My three best friends were from three different groups - a popular kid, a stoner, and a jock. Hey, this is starting to sound like Breakfast Club..

No friends. Preferred it that way. I'd sit by myself during lunch. I only got made fun of once, fortunately.
