...

Yeah, this seems interesting to talk about.

For one, I have never been a bully or have bullied anyone. I've made fun of people in the past, but never to the point in which I could be classified as a bully.

I used to be bullied back in elementary school for being short. Back then, I was unable to stick up for myself and I was often bullied by a couple of people among my years being a student at such a school. Hilariously enough, I made up with every single one of them after a year or two of being harassed by them. One of them is currently of my best friends.

Each of the reigns of these bullies against me ended with my parents doing something about it rather than taking the liberty myself because of my inability to stick up for myself. If someone messed with me, I did nothing about it. In fact, I showed that I was hurt by the bully's words (as most of them attacked me verbally) by tearing up. My body language was apparent that the bully had hurt my feelings.

I don't get bullied at school anymore thankfully, as I have the ability to be accepted into several social groups at school and get along with everyone else of different lifestyles and backgrounds. However, if the rare occurence comes that someone does mess with me, I just laugh at their insults. This keeps the person who has messed with me feeling like they've been placed in some powerless state as they are using words against me that aren't doing anything, and the person usually stops over a period of minutes.

It does the trick pretty well, and that's my normal way of getting rid of people like that, lol.

I was bullied for like 5 years. It changed my personality a lot, and it tok mw those whole 5 years to overcome that situation, it was a girls who always wanted to copy my test, and when I started to refuse, she beat me several times, in recess and in classes, almost everyone were afraid of her since she is almost the triple of my size, it wasn't someone who you would like to fight.

And I couldn't defend myself because she had other friends that "defended" her if someone was against her.... and when I tried to defend myself... well... i got a nice punch to the face. Then I changed my personality to someome who was uncapable to say no and it has caused me serious problems, luckly a psychologist helped me and I turned in the Cami I am right now.

But someone that really helped me was to .... like... kinda forgive her for what she did to me, because I was living with so much anger against her, it just made my condition worse. Right now, I completely forgot about it and learnt to see the bright side to every situation.

This has interested me...

I don't know the feeling of getting bullied since for some reason, I haven't seen a bully in my school. (Yes, I mean it...Not one has been seen) Which is perfectly fine for me till I go to high school I guess... There were some time some insulted me but after some months of that insult over and over, I've become immune to them...So far, All of their insults doesn't affect me anymore. I don't even know if the bullying gone soft at my school...(or that no one wants to bully me due to my short temper).

Yeah, that's pretty much it...

I don't know if I'm a bully or not, but I used to brawl a lot at school.
On my elementary, I was fighting 5 guys on my own for every 2 weeks, and yet each of them keep running away.
On secondary school, I'm fighting a 2-year older senior, 1 time each week.
And in my highschool(currently), I sometimes fight the bully in my school, just because I hate being bullied.

Pretty much I love fighting, but is that considered bullying? I don't know much.

I remember sitting on a person who dares to bully me. That teach them a lesson.

I was never bullied. The way I see it, they go for the weak, so don't be weak.

One guy wouldn't stop pushing me by the football field one day at high school and we were on a steep hill. I guess he was trying to knock me down so I took my foot and put behind his leg and over powered him to the bottom of the hill. That solved that problem :/

I got bullied in the past for not being socialble, or weird. Guess I remember going SUPER SAIYAN over them, which didn't end well and gave them a reason to make fun of me. That's elementary. And nowadays? Being FA, not many friends.

I get along pretty well with almost everybody on a social level, so it never happens to me very often. The only time when I was bullied actively over a long period of time was when I made the terrible decision of 'befriending' one of the biggest hood rats in the school. He was pretty mean to me all the time and for some reason he always wanted to fight me. He even punched me a lot to try to aggravate me and once pushed me to the ground as we left a class, but since I'm functionally pacifist I didn't do anything. I can't remember why I started talking to him. The only other times I've had issues with people harassing me were scattered but relatively frequent times when they prodded me about never getting a girlfriend, or laughed at me and called me dumb or something for being a bit of a weirdo or not liking sports.


Also one time on another internet forum this dude had a bit of a grudge on me because I told him I didn't approve of his attitude towards other members, and said that I don't believe in ghosts. The last instance of this resulted in him finding my actual real life facebook, and sending me a message threatening to out me to my family and friends, and also heavily implied that he was going to try to find me and rape me. This is probably the worst thing anyone has ever done to me.


I didn't really do anything to 'cope' with this per se, I mostly just reassured myself that they were all fucking idiots anyway and I wouldn't have to deal with their shit after school was over. I was right.

I'm a pretty small dude and because of it, for as long as I can remember bigger guys have seen me as a target and tried to bully me to an extent. But I'm a reasonably intelligent person and back then I had a pretty sharp tongue, so bullies learn't pretty quickly that messing with me was a quick way to getting embarrassed. Luckily for me nothing every turned physical, I still wouldn't have backed down, but I think I would have lost any 1v1 fight let alone going against a group.
So I firmly believe the best way of dealing with bullies is to stand up and make it known you won't bend over and take others shit. This will either make them find someone else who looks like a weak and easy target or take it as a personal challenge.

Unfortunately in high-school I started to get a kick from manipulating people. Just small stuff like fanning the flames between two people and then sitting back and watching the shit hit the fan or slowly turning my group of friends against certain individuals and then segregating them just because they rubbed me the wrong way. There wasn't even a decent reason for why I was acting like a cunt, I just liked the feeling of being able to make people do what I wanted while remaining in the shadows free from any consequence, it gave me a twisted sense of intellectual superiority.
And I only really stopped when I got bored.

There was also a time later in high-school that I bullied a group of racist kids who messed with my mate, but I'd prefer to not go into that as I did some stuff I'm not to proud of. After a fair amount of meditating I realized that I only really did what I did because of twisted sense of self-righteousness and because I held (and unfortunately still do) a kind of prejudice against people in Australia who I consider to be 'lower class' or 'bogan', and putting them in their place made me fell good.

I've been bullied my whole life due to me being fat.
It's a really long story. I'll shorten it down.
When I was young, I've been bullied just because I'm fat. I used to take it seriously, and maybe overreacted to them. I used to cry a lot, and always try to defend myself. I always get to see the social worker at my school, and she taught me quite a few techniques to deal with bullies. Slowly I got used to them.
I'm still bullied nowadays. It's not just that I'm fat that I'm bullied now. It's because I have quite a history (9+ years) of being sensitive and 'easy to bully' that it has spread and become a habit of newer bullies. However, now that I'm so used to them, I seldom take their insults to heart. Still, sometimes, when they strike a sensitive spot in my background, I tend to be really sensitive, and break down and cry, or. I cry the most in my grade, not gonna lie. But most of the time, I either outsmart them with witty comments about their insults (My English fluency is superior to theirs), or ignore them completely.
That's pretty much about it.

I've actually had been bullied for quite a while when I was in the 5th grade. Quite a lot of people would pick on me and do things such as push me around, verbally attack me, and would falsely accuse me of things I have never done such as smoke in the bathrooms, masturbate in school, and even try to shoot or kill someone. These things were quite a very big problem for me and would always get me down. And all of this started just because I had a high-pitched voice and was at a height of 4'8". They even vandalized some bathroom part and written down something that just threatened me seriously. This went on til later on in 8th grade, me and the main bully had some face down near our public library. Went on til the bully kneed on my glasses, breaking it in half. Some graduates from my elementary school came up to help me out and see if I was OK. The bully and a friend of his just ran away ever since they broke my glasses. [ The bully still haven't paid for it. :I ]

I've done quite some reporting and everything to the principal and everything. Things went better as time went by and soon, before we graduated, me and the bully met face to face in the office and he apologized for everything. And so, things went great.

But it came back when I was in freshmen year in high school. Though this time, it wasn't the same person. I don't quite fully understand why this guy would end up bullying on me, but he would do some random things such as randomly start rooting my name in a student lounge, picking on the website, and [ there are some of you that might've remembered back at FA ], he ended up picking on stone by spamming his avatar of himself and have the topic thread say "UGLI UGLI UGLI". It made me pretty pissed and we both ended up in the office twice for these disturbances. On the last time we met in the office, we both made up, he apologized, and I forgave. And so, since today, things haven't gone bad.

I used to be bullied because i wasn't a good basketball player. Even though i felt horrible i kept practicing. Now I am 6 foot 3, strong, and one of the best players on the team. I bullied as well i guess, but I have never went over the line to make someones life miserable.

I have been made fun of practically through out all the grades I've been in. Because my head was a lot bigger than most, people ended calling me "Peanut head". I dont know why it happens all the tim but it does. At one point, I was almost beaten up because I spoke back. But for some reason, I held it back against my parents and the principal thinking out of fear. Thinking back over those times makes me think people are jealous to not have a brain as big as mine. However, the bullying incident kinda shaped my form of fear and backing down. I honestly wish I could overcome it, but apparently my personality wont allow me to have such confidence.

XD I'm guessing most bullies were black.
Anyway, I wasn't bullied alot. My district enforced bullying a lot and they had like cops near all the restroom. People actually feared of being A Bully.

Well there's a different between being picked on and bullied.

I was bullied to hell since i moved here in 4th grade, until about 10th grade.

I was bullied alot for my height, head, and sexuality. I was so little and weak that everyone just liked to hit me and yell at me for everything and no one really wanted to be around me. But that wasn't it, I got alot of death threats for being interested in both males and females, they would say they'd kill me if they see me around them. My friend got jumped in the middle of walmart for being gay. I remember them taking off their belts and punching and whipping me with them in the bathroom. I screamed but no one apparently heard me. They would call me a faggot, being pansexual is the same as being gay to people. And with most of the country being christian to the point of homophobia i got hell all the time. I was only 4''9' - 5''2'' until about 9th grade, so anyone could push me down, beat me up. ANd my family isnt too supportive. My grandmother is a strong christian and tells me how gays are devil people without knowing about me, my parents say they are supportive of gay and bi people, but would be dissapointed if they found out i was. I told my sister in 8th grade, and she just shook it off and gave no shits, shes the closest person to me in my life right now. My older brother found out when i turned 16 because i was going on a date with my boyfriend, and he was driving me to the date for my "girlfriend" and he said "i'm following you in to meet this lady, no matter what, you can't stop me" so I just told him i was pansexual before we I got there, and he was supportive. He is a male cheerleader so he works with a lot of the LGBT community and is completely supportive. He just didn't expect his brother to be a part of it. My little brother found out about 3 weeks ago. I was getting over my ex girlfriend and i was talking to my sister, he overheard me bring up my ex boyfriend and i just told him straight up. He didn't care either. So i have my sibling support. They don't look at me different and we act the same as we always did. My friends are also very supportive so i deal with people picking on me a lot better. And now i am the vice president of my schools gay straight alliance and a part of the PALs program to help out children who may have bullying issues and to be a friend. :)

Definition Of Pansexuality: sexual attraction, sexual desire, romantic love, or emotional attraction toward people of all gender identities and biological sexes. Self-identified pansexuals may consider pansexuality a sexual orientation, and refer to themselves as gender-blind, asserting that gender and sex are insignificant or irrelevant in determining whether they will be sexually attracted to others. The Oxford English Dictionary defines pansexuality as, "not limited or inhibited in sexual choice with regard to gender or activity".

I have attempted suicide 3 times between 7th grade and 10th grade.
twice by overdose
and once by hanging.
My parents now have surveillance over me all the time and i had to spend a year getting help. But I no longer have those thoughts, i have grown up a bit more, and I realize people will hate no matter what, and killing myself isn't the answer.

Alot of people say "people just over react to bullying" but it's wrong. As a child, you need friendship and compasion. As a child, 1 person hating you is like the world hating you, it is a very difficult thing to cope with as a child. When parents don't show their support, and other kids just make fun of you, some kids just can't take it. Not everyone is strong willed. I think it should not be allowed for kids to bully one another because it's not good for them to grow up with. Right now, someone could bully me and i won't care because ive grown up, and i don't need that compassion and friendship i needed as a child. I have friends, and know i can make more. But as a naive child, you are expecting a safe place where everyone likes you, and sure, that won't happen, that's the truth of life, but to allow kids to physically and mentally hurt each other can be stopped. It is very easy for a child to commit suicide now a days. VERY VERY EASY. Go get medicine from the cabinet, jump off of something high, drown yourself in the tub, learn to hang yourself OFF OF YOUTUBE, get your parents gun, stab yourself, children have many options that they can use, and killing yourself is an easy answer because if a kid doesn't like something, they don't want to keep it, and if they dont like life they probably wont deal with it. It's immaturity, and not saying they're bad for being immature, but at young ages it's hard to be mature. Why would you go to school away from all your family, hope to be safe, and then be beat up for being who you are? That's what leads kids to suicide.


Also i bullied fat people, because they would fight me back, 3 people in general. I would call them fat all the time, to try to be cool and fit in with my peers. ANd i regret it, i never hit them, i just said mean things, 1 of them cut them self alot, and one day became my bf for a bit. Another is my best friend in the world, and she still sometimes cuts, thinks of suicide, was sent to a mental institute, and is now home schooled because her bullying just wouldn't stop, from kindergarten to 11th grade when she became home schooled, she was continued to be bullied. People still talk about her behind her back, even though she doesn't even go to the school. And the last guy is also my best friend, and he is very successful. He is a bit thinner now, a womanizer, president of our student council and gamers club, has straight a's and already has scholarships. He is no longer bullied, he is now looked up to and is a great role model. :D

EDIT: Also, my family said my uncle is gay, but he hasn't come out because of my grandmother hating gay people. I really want to ask him and show him my support, but i don't want to intrude on his personal life.
