Starbucks at it again

I think the difference is, that I never thought it was fair to think that my friends were doing it only because I was the smaller guy. I always thought of that as my hangup, not theirs. It's more likely that they just did it because of their comfort level with me, but I let my own insecurities twist that into something that it wasn't and it could have been something that damaged my friendship. I'm not saying that it is necessarily the same thing, I'm just saying that from my perspective & experiences, it feels like it can be.

I support the space for smaller guys to all have different feelings about how they are treated. You came to a conclusion that someone else may never reach and there's an even smaller guy out there that never even had a second thought about it and laughed it off. All are genuine.

Again, expressing one's concerns shouldn't be routinely dismissed especially if there's a history to support the origin of those feelings...err, in this case, tall people picking on shorter people.
