When I was young, I was bullied in school. I can't seem to let go of this and it has affected my self-confidence for my whole life. Yet I realize it must be much more terrible for those who were sexually abused.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. Were you bullied when you were young and now you are a sexual abuser?

I realize that many abusers were abused themselves and can see why, but I hope I'm never in that situation.

Just hit the gym. When i was in school someone tried to bully me a big guy who everyone was scared of . One day he pushed me to far and i kicked his ass he started screamin for his boys to help him but nobody did . The thing is he was big but not strong cause i had been doing the gym i was stronger and cold easily swing the bastard about . He came in the next day with a knife in his bag and got caught so he was expelled. Next time i heard from him he was offering blow jobs for money. The junky fuck .

Hey there, OP. I've got a few questions for you because I'm drinking mid-afternoon and feel the need to give you a sincere response. How old are you now? What kind of self-esteem issues are you facing? Purely internal? Or is there some aspect of your love or professional life that this is giving you trouble with?

I grew up as the fat kid in a fairly small town (population ca. 6,000 most of which were elderly). In elementary school I got in lots of fights because kids would gang up on me to see who could take down the fat boy. I lived with my single, fat, codependent mom so I didn't have a good role model for self-esteem either. I was "sexually abused" once by a male cousin at the age of about 8 (I'm a guy) but I wasn't traumatized, only sexually awakened by the experience. As I became a teen, my sex drive (like most) was on fire but I knew that, being fat, I would be an undesirable sex partner for most girls.

These days, I'm almost 28 and I'm a fairly confident and happy person in life. I've had to overcome a lot of challenges like anyone, so I doubt it makes me an expert on your issues but I thought perhaps we might be able to relate. So, tell me a little more about your troubles.
