At some point last summer, people at my school did a great job of making me feel so uncomfortable and seemed like they lie about everything while going around people's backs to get them into trouble or ruin their reputation by spreading rumors about anything and everything. They also made a lot of comments about how creepy they can be. Everyone thought it was funny but I felt uncomfortable. Whenever I brought up any concerns I had, no one really cared. I didn't talk to people about anything personal or something that could be used against me. For a while, I felt like I couldn't talk to anyone because I was worried that I could get suspended or expelled because of something I do or say outside of classes.
Now I think I've gotten better about that and I'm not as paranoid as I used to be. I feel more comfortable sharing things with people and I'm careful about who knows what. I wasn't used to saying one thing to a certain group and being silent around people who didn't have to know. I'm getting used to private messages and private conversations so I'm not as worried about people getting me into trouble or saying a little too much when it comes to something personal. I wish I could feel comfortable enough to talk about kids or family members while sharing pictures and videos like other people do. I hope I can be that comfortable one day with friends but I'm just not there yet.
Does anyone else ever feel this way when they talk to people online (Facebook, Twitter, etc) or is it just me?
