One of the most annoying things about my school life is the majority of my classmates.
Sure, I have a bunch of friends, but generally, the class loves to use me as sort of a punching bag. I'm not the "douchebag whom everyone just laughs at". I'm actually one of the nicer ones and somewhat silent. The quiet ones in my society are usually the ones whom people are nicest to (because they're innocent), but they're the ones who don't usually hang out with people. The louder people, on the other hand, are being joked around normally. However, in my case, I'm stuck in between quiet and loud that people don't really hang out with me much, but love to make fun of me because I also don't fit in the "quiet" category.
To elaborate further, I've done my classmates so many favors and I am still getting very little respect from them. I've helped them fix their lockers and tables and I'm still getting the same insults. I am flattered by the fact that people refer to me as the "jack of all trades" of the class, but it's annoying to carry such a title when they're only so nice to me when they need my help and then become total douchebags to me during regular times.
I am also known to be the guy who is slow to anger. I thought that would be a likeable trait, but in my case, it's very much abused. I think that is actually precisely why they feel okay treating me this way, because I won't give a violent reaction. They've abused my kindess and patience and I already don't want to waste it on them anymore. I'm really not one to display emotion, though.
At one point, I've even secretly sabotaged our class such as secretly ruining parts of the bulletin board during a bulletin board contest.
That's the thing about me - I am most comfortable around people my age, and yet they're the hardest for me to make friends with. Majority of my friends are teachers and young kids. I still have, though, a great number of friends my age.
What do you think should I do, though?
