To me:
Don't ever explain yourself to others anymore, people do not want to know the real you, but rather they want to know the YOU in THEIR perception. They want YOU to be like what THEY think and do what THEY want for their benefit, DO NOT falls into that! You are perfect with who you are, no matter what flaws you have, YOU are YOU! DO NOT let them change you! Even if you do not have many friends because of that, just be YOURSELF! They don't know about your past, they don't know you, they DON'T KNOW anything regarding to YOU! They just want YOU to become what THEY perceive. THEY are NOT YOU! So you don't need to explain yourself to them if they clearly DO NOT CARE, and vice versa YOU do not need to CARE for what they perceive of YOU. I know who I am and I don't need anyone to tell me WHO or WHAT I AM!
