I had this thought at several places in your post.
People don't usually mess with you if they're not interested in you in some way. When you're young, people will often torture you before they let you close to them. You have to earn your way into certain circles through a sort of ordeal process. I've kind of been where you are, and I know that's it makes no sense that people want to hurt you and you're supposed to just take it, but sometimes that's just what you have to do. Of course, you have to choose how interested you are in the particular circle, whether it's worth it or not.
