” Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”
Never has a sentence been more wrong. Words are WILL hurt. Words will kill. When someone says a word it can sink so deep down in your mind that you will never escape it. Think of all the words people use to hurt. Getting each and every one down so low that that is all you hear in your mind. When someone insults you it can grab hold and never let you go until you are writhing in pain thinking yourself worthless. Words can get inside and eat you from the core to the outside. There is no escape. Words will haunt you. Words will follow you. Words will harm you. Once words break you down it is almost impossible to get back up. Especially when it keeps coming back. The words you say has meaning. The words you say are serious. You can be driven so deep that the words will change inside your head. They will change and they will speak to you. They can have you do all sorts of things. Like drink. Or smoke. Or cut. Tell you to jump off a bridge. But one day They will go to the extremity of killing you. And everyone will think it was just YOUR actions. Because they never heard the words inside your head. Words can hurt as much as they can heal. And even more. They can hurt even worse than sticks and stones. But some people never know that… until it’s too late.
“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words consume and kill me.”

There have been many times when I know being stabbed would hurt less than the words said to me.
Thank You Creeper Tales, that was truthful, honest, and I am glad to see YOU are not like them
Pull yourself together Creeper Tales. It only upsets you because you make it important. All this being popular and having friends is important to you. I’m not saying it’s not but you might as well learn about life now.
You feel inferior because you’re not as popular as some of the others. If you want to be better you need more varied experience. Other people have more to talk about because they divide their social life.
