MegaphoneStallone Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I've seen this topic come up - along with the stereotype that a lot of people on forums got bullied, or are a bit socially weird (totally untrue, I will say.) Personally I wasn't bullied. Unfortunately, I will say I was maybe among the bullies - which looking back fills my school days with some regrets and really kind of sucks... That said, the few kids I targeted have forgiven and while I still think they're weird and a bit dweeby. I now see them as good and functional people trying their best. When I'm back in my home town to visit, if I see them I'll stop and have a chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine, I have been friends with (and still) since we were basically toddlers went to a different school and wound up (for some reason) being bullied into home-schooling. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully next generations will get a better education which I hope will prevent this kind of behaviours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerlene Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I wasn't really bullied but I did some bullying back in my day. If you're going to come to school in rags, pick your nose in front of everyone, etc. then you should expect some not so nice comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander. Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Yes, unfortunately I was. Verbally and physically by the same kids all through high school. I kept informing the teacher and the tutors didn't believe me. I had to secretly film them when they were harassing me for evidence. It ruined my school years and I ended up with depression / anxiety as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 From the first day of Kindergarten. I wasn't just bullied I was tortured. And it wasn't just the students. The teachers got in on it too. I changed school districts between 7th and 8th grade, hoping for a fresh start. It didn't help at all. To top it off, by that time the beatings I was getting at home made me mean as hell, and I beat the complete shit out of a lot of kids and actually came close to killing one. But when I warned him that his family would get it worse if my name came out, he kept silent. But the bullying got worse. Finally I dropped out early in my junior year. I could take no more. I vowed to never return to that town again. And for the last 20 years I've kept that vow. One thing that I don't know how it got started was someone started a rumor that I was going to open fire at graduation and had bombs set up at prom. Due to that, I couldn't take a shit without a fucking cop following me. The day of prom, I thought prom was still 2 weeks away. I had no plans to go anyway, but here comes the god damn cops, asking me questions that I eventually told them to fuck off about. I heard there were undercover ARMED cops stationed all over the gym and outside the school at graduation. I wasn't within an hour of the town. They were still there. It's been 20 years and I still get looks when I'm in the general area. Meaning within 10 miles. I've been misanthropic my entire life, but I have a special hatred for that town. If any one of them was burning I would throw a bucket of gas on them. If they were drowning, I would throw a bucket of water on them. If they were being crushed, I would throw a cement block on them.

kingpotato Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 They tried but all you have to do is buck up. Even if you get you ass kicked you still have stand up yourself. At least thats how I lived most of my school days and rarely got bullied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you stand up for your friends or go inform a professional to bring justice? Is your buddy okay? I've never really understood why bullies bully. Very strange behaviour. Edited April 10, 2019 by xXInfectedXx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) I was never bullied in school because even though I was skinny, I was ridiculously strong plus I knew how to fight and had a pretty vicious temper on top of that so most people knew better than to provoke me. Funny enough, a few of my teachers growing up commented that I had the temperament of a wild tiger lol.

svjiminfxv Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I was never bullied, but I did sometimes have a few issues with people towards the end of my school years. It was always for silly reasons as well. I used to get along with those people for years until a rumour went around and it all kicked off from there. Luckily I don't see those people anymore and don't have to worry about any of that anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debashis Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I've never been bullied. Neither in school or in college. Mostly because they had strict rule against bullying. Anyone who was caught doing it was removed immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennysplash Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I had a huge build up to my teenage years. If anyone would do the bullying it would be me. But I never did that nor did I experience it. I attended a private school, so bullying was almost nonexistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I was actually bullied in school to some extent until I was able to make my own friends. I can tell you that it was one of the most horrible experience that I had during my time in school and I wouldn't want to see anyone to pass through the same thing I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why you should teach your kids self defense so that they can protect themselves at school. My parents used to tell me that if someone hit me unprovoked, I should kick their ass so that's what I used to do. Heatman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
