I don’t know what makes me such a tempting target. That’s always eluded me. My last year of elementary passed nearly without incident simply because word got around that I’d beaten up one of my bullies. The others left me alone after that for some reason. I added it to the list of things I’ll never understand about them.

This hits home for me. I passed for some similar situation.

I don't understand them, either. Never do. After years and years now, and reading and hearing and stuff.

And still, I don't understand it.
