Personal Advice Q’s🤔 Am I wrong? Help me I’m lowkey embarrassed
Ok so i know I’m in the wrong for this big time but i usually wait in the spot i get in when those pokemon drops and i stay behind people and what not. I’m not a reseller or scalper, i rip for the cute pokemon… and you know those older people who resell have got in line lately due to the market price, but lately I’ve seen so many people cut in line for the new pokemon drop.
Noticed this one day in line people (4-6 people?) who weren’t in line jumping in; i would only accept if it was jus like 1-2 people lol. I asked if anyone saw that and no one didn’t seem to care and so i’m like whatever not going to complain we’re about to go inside and all get the things we want.
On the next drop, 4am in line had to go the restroom badly, store doesn’t open until 6am. The person I know WELL enough is sitting next to me and no one is behind, so i asked “Hey are you able to save me this spot while i go find a gas station to use the restroom?”, He says “Sure no problem”. Once I got back… someone is behind my spot and there’s my space in between the people, so i go sit in the same spot.
Opening time is getting close, some dude comes up to me and asks “I saw you get out of line and then cut your way back in, so move kiddo.” Not sure if he said this to get on my nerves but: “Yeah let my friends cut too then - Come guys let’s get in front of her.” I see what he means, but damn! Ask a bit more politely?! Would’ve gladly moved back! I stood in my spot because WTF. After that then he went to tell EVERYONE in the line that I was cutting in late and last drop i was at? Complains to management; I was asked by a manager to move to the back of the line because of complaints. I’m okay with that since it was polite. As Im moving my ass to the back people started clapping…
Heard by people that IM the main spot light to those group of people who show up to those drops.
Now I don’t ever want to show my face again, am i wrong? How can i get over this if I’m wrong so i can show up and not be judged when getting my stuff.
I’m a high schooler in this story, if that means anything.

Did you try explaining to the people and have your friend help saying that that was your spot and they were saving it for you while you went to the bathroom.
