Classmates Go Ballistic On Redditor After She Tells Them About Her Prior Education In Art

“I was called a variety of names, told I should've went over my history at the start of class, and called selfish for taking up space that could be used for someone who actually needed to be there.”

School exposes you to many challenges that you have to learn how to deal with. Besides education, it's always important to form healthy relationships with your classmates and enjoy being around them.

Making friends is a crucial aspect that is sometimes sabotaged by jealousy over accomplishments. Jealousy is a normal emotion that humans have to deal with all the time.

However, it can negatively impact students if they don't deal with it and keep it under control. Each person needs to learn how to ignore jealous classmates and focus on what's truly important, reaching your goals and staying on the right track.

Jealous peers can often get confrontational and attempt to throw you off your game with hurtful words or actions. It usually never gets to that point, but when it does, it's quite difficult to deal with.

A Redditor who later deleted their account made a post on the r/AmItheAhole subReddit where they explained how their classmates were furious after learning about her previous education. The user got a lot of different reactions to her post, scroll down and check out the full Reddit post, and scroll a little further to read the comments from the original post.

Here's the original post by a Reddit user who later deleted their account:

OP was enrolled in a private academy and showed a natural talent for art.

OP contacted her professor at the start of the semester to let him know her background.

OP was accused of cheating after her professor liked her art.

After sharing a small amount of info about her past, OP's classmates did not take the news that well.

Here's why OP thinks she might potentially be the a-hole:

Here's how the Reddit community reacted to the user's post:

How does one even cheat in art?

Claire accused OP of following tutorials and “cheating.”

Claire is getting unnecessarily involved in OP's life.

OP's classmates are obviously jealous of her talent.

OP should be proud of her work and ignore the haters and bullies.

Always do what you like and ignore everything else.

Someone will always be better at you at doing something, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Claire is insecure and should not be taken seriously.

OP replied to the previous user's comment to clarify matters further:

The classmates are threatened by OP's success.

If the professor is allowing it, then it's none of their concern.

They should stay in their lane and out of people's business.

OP did not have to share that info with them.

OP has every right to be in that class.

OP should ignore all her classmates and focus on doing what she loves doing the most. The classmates are obviously jealous and feel threatened by OP's success and talent. Such people should be ignored completely. If you enjoyed this Reddit story, make sure to check out similar content on our platform.
