Hi I'm Dan, I'm a 24 year old self employed window cleansing engineer in merry olde England! Pete was a name given to me in college hence the screen name. The whole of my school life I was bullied, first for my ears (that stuck out abit) then my height/weight. I had no confidence in myself. (Even now my self confidence is low even though my friends all say I'm the most confident person they know.) During my last year at school I went through the change and trimmed out and 'beefed' up and it started to stop, but some people still brought up my past self. Once I left school and went to college all the bullying stopped and it felt like I was starting a fresh new life. I think I've lost count of people coming up to me and saying sorry for what they said and did, (though that could be because they could see the pure hatred and awaiting ass kicking they could have received.) I even had one of my best mates say sorry for not sticking up for me.
The story of Amanda Todd gave me a massive hit in the heart, not because of her age or because she was a beautiful young lady but because she felt like she had no one and the only way to escape the pain people were causing her was to take her own life. I don't care about her past, I believe people can change and she tried to but others wouldn't let her past be the past. Even after making the ultimate sacrifice people still are not letting it go.

Dan (aka Pete!)
