have u ever been the victim of bullying?

[tonni]

i have. i hate 2 admit to this because of my terrible shame. people in school would mock me for being 2 well read and called me a "book wormed virgin". i never responded thinking to myself: water of a duck, turn the other cheek like i read in my philosophy books.

but it only got worse until i was basically hospitalised for 6 months, the doctors couldnt find what was wrong but i just stopped living.

feel free to share

Been called a few slurs and been in a few fights but nothing too brutal

[Angel]

First day of high school, a senior started shoving a few juniors in my group. I gave the bully a shove and he fell flat on his butt with the entire school grounds laughing at him. I was never really bullied again. There were a few annoying people where one guy grabbed me during a fun run and told me to let him win but he was slow and I beat him in the race. He tried to beat me up afterwards but let’s just say he got beaten up and kicked out of school for a month after I explained it to the teachers (I was taller and stronger than him).

To be honest, I'd say fight back and stand up for yourself or group up with strong friends. Some bullies just need the bitter taste of their own medicine.

yeah my friend all my life i've dealt with these people, in school and at home, my father lacks empathy and my step dad was a wanna be biker, about ten years ago i decided i'd had enough of everyones ♥♥♥♥ and told everyone where they could go, since then i've been trying to rebuild my life with a mix of failure and success, part of me even wants to go back to these people just so i'm not alone, but then theres a beast in me that knows better, i feel for ya i really do you walk a rough path, i can tell you one thing though, when you are really alone you learn what your made of, thats how you find your strength, you fight my friend, i will go down with my tail thrashing in my enemies blood. death or glory my friend.

Nope never

Same reason as the OP as far as the teasing goes. Was well read. Pretty reserved. Natural target. I also played football partly to just push myself and get out of my comfort zone. I was pretty solid. Looking solid while also being 'shy' almost makes you more of an ideal target if the bully can pull it off. Idiots would try to knockdown or take my books. It only took standing up and giving them the death eye a couple times as it happened and it stopped. If it ever had to escalate I probably would have but it never got there.

oh, absolutely. most of the verbal stuff I don't recall. a kid wrapped a chain around my neck once. I got picked up by some older kids and dumped into a trashcan once (that one I found humorous though. it was absurd lol).

one time really sticks out though-- a girl heard some teachers mention I had a banana allergy. we were recently taught about nut/shellfish allergies and anaphalaxysis. she (falsely, mine wasn't that severe) thought that being exposed to banana could kill me.

so she had me pinned down after school one day and rubbed banana in my face to see what would happen. she fully expected to watch me go into shock. thankfully, she got caught, and I didn't have any reaction.

I wonder about that a lot sometimes. I can't imagine how horrific her life must've been for her to be willing to try to seriously injure another child. she had this morbid fascination with it.

sometimes I look up her name to see if she's in the news. haven't heard about her since.

anyway, long story aside-- if you're going through this right now; it gets better. it really does.

by the time you hit college, people mellow out a LOT and become less judgemental. sure, there's crappy people everywhere, but as time goes by, you'll find it much easier to surround yourself with people who love and support you! please keep going! it will get easier 💕

i have both been a bully (elementary) and been bullied (middle school).

i gotta say in elementary it was mostly only 1 girl i hated. Idk why but her ugliness made me hate her more and the main reason was no reason. I just flat out did not like her and wanted her to know


middle school typically trial by fire ghetto ass kids made me cry alot.

both cases i did though tbh.




gotta say overall buylling is kinda cringe. I'd rather get my ass beat than be in a cycle of cringe of picking on a kid or getting picked on. New age bullying is just acting like idiots and lowering people or being lowered to lower b.s. arguments.


those anti bully programs and ads got it wrong AGAIN
bullying is basically just 2 or more morons just going at it for literally no reason.

you wanna stop bullying none of this conflict resolution crap.
Have all parties involved wear clown getups for an entire month along with giving all classes extra homework. Guaranteed to not only change them but anyone around them.
Anytime a new kid comes in they'll get trial by fire
not just kids extend to the adults too but instead make them volunteer with said kids to shoot their weekends.

5 gorillas experiment but irl.
eventually no one will get WHY they don't bully they'll just know if they do try it they'll get their ass beat for trying lol.

weaponize bullying against it lol

Everyone has been bullied or harassed at some point or another, the problem some people can handle it much better than others.

Meh... It gets easier to further dull emotions once you manage to dull them just a little. Then it's a simple way to near complete emotional detachment. Being bullied is just a good opportunity for training that.

Oh so it's actually the opposite? Some people get bullied so much they envy those who have emotions, so they tell them to just accept their situation so they will meet the same fate.
This sounds very mentally healthy, good advice my good sir!

Sigh... Must you overreact and make such a scene everywhere? It's like some cry for attention just for the sake of it. It's getting mildly... boring at this point. (Maybe I should get used to that. I bet it is hopeless to even argue.)

I think I broke something in my head while doing that. My emotions are strong. Not very cool beans.

[Siluva]

Yeah.

Had a late growth (?), so I was the shortest dude in the class, quite an easy target for bullies.

How did I managed to get trough it? Violence.
Those bullies stoped bothering me when they realized I would just turn myself into L4D2 jockey, jumping on them an ramming their faces.

Then I grew up and reached the same height as them (sometimes even taller) and the tables have turned.

Bullies are afraid of items that can do damage. Especially if you display some basic skill in wielding them. Last bully-wannabe is still running and advising others to not touch me or even approach few meters, where and when they wanted to gather like 30 people to attack me.

How can "bullies" wound somebody, if they are being afraid of getting wounded themselves?
