Stupid people from the past and going out

[therealdeal]

Hi

Sorry I really don't know where this thread belongs.

Do any of you not want to go out just because you don't want to see people from your past?

It's one of the reasons why I don't feel like going out. I have lots of enemies and people that I'd like to avoid.

For me, a lot of them are dangerous people.

One reason why I have enemies is because back then while I was still in school there were some very malicious people who hacked into some accounts I had and pretended they were me. I didn't find out for the longest time until they messaged one of my good friends and she told me that someone started cussing at her on my screen name and she knew that I wouldn't do such a thing. I think I know who it is now.

One of these guys have done it to other people too (sending profane messages to gangs etc. while pretending to be someone else) and then the gangs would try to start trouble with the innocent person who was framed.

This guy pretty much never got caught and has since graduated from college and is becoming a surgeon. He did not change at all and still a complete psycho. I know this because he cheated his way through college and has the same attitude (somehow we had a few mutual friends and they told me how he'd bully them into letting him copy answers etc.).

All the people that he offended don't have a clue.
I'm suspecting that there are a few people doing these things and they think it's funny.

How would you even approach this situation? There's almost no evidence.

Well back to the original question, would you just move?
Maybe if I'm somewhere else I'd actually go out.

Well I know I did go through a point in my life where I tried to avoid the people I considered my 'enemies' or 'ex-friends' so I know how you feel. I would go out of my way to not come in contact with them and I started to notice it and I realized it wasn't worth worrying so much about it and taking time out of my day to not run into them. There are still some people which I would move to never see again but even if I do I just don't even look at them and pretend I have no clue who they are.

The world is a big place.
I always say that a change in scenery- even if it's for a short period of time, is good.

If by leaving, you are avoiding things that are necessary to your survival; then obviously moving away isn't the right thing to do.
If you have nothing tying you there and have the option of trying your luck elsewhere, then I don't see why not.

I've never stayed in one place long enough to say I've had any 'enemies'; although there are always plenty of people who don't like me at all.
No one cares if I come or go, so it doesn't matter.
I have nothing tying me down usually; aside from maybe my career. haha

I always obsess over seeing someone from high school in public. Funnier thing is that I'm more worried about running into a friend or acquaintance than someone I didn't get along with or didn't like. Weird I know... I've run into quite a few people I knew while out in public. I think the worst case for me was running into my ex who cheated on me. He was with his buddies and as soon as I saw him I tried to pass by unnoticed but unfortunately he noticed me and took that opportunity to humiliate me in front of his friends by saying some nasty things that he thought would "justify" his cheating on me.

Is there any way you could report him for cheating? He should not be a surgeon if that happened.

Can I punch him? I ask because I would really like to punch him.

I don't obsess over meeting idiots from school. I don't think about them or give them any of my worth. I nothing them. Of course, I have run into a couple randomly but I either pretend they're not there or walk away.

Thanks for all of your replies. They really helped getting my mind back on track.

I used to get violent threats from lots them but back then I didn't know any better and did not report them or have a record of what they said. I'd definitely report them if it happened today but still I'd like to avoid any of these types of situations if possible.

Iluv: Yeah sometimes I tell myself that it's a waste of time and energy to even think about them and that the chances are actually slim. I've ran into some in the past and I pretended not to know them and I left. I'm pretty sure if I stayed there would be trouble.

WeirdyMcGee: Never staying in 1 place long enough sounds refreshing.
The only thing I have tying me down right now is the business I started. Doh. It was just more convenient to start it where I am now. Perhaps I can somehow move it in the future... Just have to find the right place.


MaliceInWickedland: I would really like to punch him as well!

MikeyC: Hi Mikey! I don't think much would happen even if I reported him now. It's been a while and I don't have any hard evidence. I rally wish I did. These things probably go on all the time and are real hard to catch. Another reason why I don't trust "doctors" and other people in the medical field.

I do this too, but moreso with peolpe who are "out of their compartment" in my mind.

If i see someone from work at the mall for example, i want to hide.

I obsess over this.

I would probably move if it bothered me a lot. I wouldn't want to live in the town I went to High school anyway.

or if you really like the town I would just wait it out and assume you won't see HS people all that much depending on how big the town is and after a while HS stuff and people won't really matter all that much because 10 years down the line most have their own lives and the more years that go by the less HS stuff will even matter.
