I think you should tell this to the bullies. That way they can tell their victims "Remember, I'm teaching you a valuable life lesson" after they're done beating them up and taking their lunch money. Seriously though, being a social outcast isn't a valuable experience, nor is it healthy. It sucks, and it teaches you that your only options are to avoid the shitty people or suck it up as you put it. The reality is that you have a third option: being assertive. Believe it or not, you can make a shitty situation tolerable with a bit of honesty and frankness. After all, there are going to be shitty people you can't avoid, and you'll explode if you just suck it up. But school doesn't teach geeks to do that. It teaches them to be docile and accept their shitty situation.
