For someone who has always been thin, I noticed that when I suddenly gained weight in eighth grade, everything felt very different from when I was smaller and considered prettier. One of the first things I observed was that my friends started treating me differently, almost like there was an unspoken reluctance to see me as a person. I didn’t understand it at the time because I was too young to process these big feelings, but now I realize it, and thinking about it makes me very uncomfortable.
