1. I was already in mid teens when bullying started, and knew that I could endure it.
2. Being a smart kid, I had support of teachers. So, I ended up focusing more on studies rather than interacting with classmates.
I know quite a few people who were bullied and basically wrapped themselves in a cocoon and missed learning important skills (communication, social)
