You are obviously very hurt and you are right- a person should have spoken to you first before tattling on you. My question is why did you not go to a different yeshiva? Why was your choice to go straight to “the street”?
My cousin had your situation and was thrown out of a long list of yeshivos but going to the street was never an option that occured to him. He is a kollel avreich today. (Ironically he has 7 daughters)
Even if you are now on the street, why do you not try to get back into another yeshiva? You are so young and you are not the first person to confront this issue. There are numerous yeshiva options-why not speak to a rav to ask for advice on where you might go?
Please write back and let us know how you are! All of Klal Yisroel wants you back! Chazak Veametz. Your mind is too precious to waste. The only one who can make something happen is you.
BTW my son was kicked out of yeshiva for smoking Marlboros. He was devastated. We spoke to his 6th grade rebbe who recommended the yeshiva he is in now. There he met the rav that changed his entire outlook on life. He is your age and is so shtark! Don’t give up-you may just end up in a yeshiva that will be the best place for you to grow in.
