What was the first time you felt "different"? (2 Viewers)

The moment you got burned by someone's judgement and hurtful words, and wondered for the first time if there's something wrong with you and if there are parts of you that you should hide..

Spoiler: me

I believe it was when the person I considered my best friend back then tossed me away and even got others at school to bully me. I thought we were friends and that I was safe and accepted, but I was forced to realize that who I am was not enough 😅
