<p>it just bothered me that he asked me that, because it was one bruise, and it was my birthday and he asked me in front of the entire class. and i dont like discussing brusies with my entire class, maybe if he asked at a more appropriate time (in private maybe?) i wouldn't have been as bothered. plus, we have most teachers for a year of highschool, and if everyone can deal w/ith them it would make it alot easier. it's not like they are physically hitting on us or messing with our grades.</p>
<p>Elusivestranger,
You are right that that was not a question to ask you in front of other people. If you had been abused, you also aren't likely to have admitted it in front of your classmates.</p>
<p>yeah, thanks. (im not abused.. far from it!)</p>
