I think that, for subpoints to these, I have two:

1. Proximity does not require intimacy. You don't have to be actual friends with any of these people if you don't want to. Even if you find it more pleasant and more convenient to be friendly, that doesn't mean you have to confide in them or etc.

2. Endurance is important, but if you can also manage to endure in a way that won't leave you set up with bad habits later, that's even better. I know too many people whose coping mechanisms for enduring high school caused them real trouble later in life.
