Just wondering if anyone ever run into those who tormented them in High School? I have from time to time, and they always seem to act like nothing happened , like all those years of torment and cruelty never happened, it's kind of hard to deal with. Has anyone had this experience?
shareAbsolutely. It's funny, I just got engaged and I grew up in a small town, so everyone knows now. I ran into this girl who would call me Fatty and trip me in the hallways in high school. She was super sweet to me. She even said "Can't wait to get the invite!" Yeah. Right. People do change, but unfortunately the past doesn't.
"It's beyond my control."
People used to make fun of me for being short though I was mostly just annoyed with that one because it didn't make sense to me, not like I could control it. I was also made fun of for being smart and speaking "white". It was the dumbest thing in the world. I lived and went to school in a predominantly black community and most of the people spoke slang and had "ghetto" accents I suppose. I have never talked like that. I always used proper grammar and never had any kind of accent. So automatically, because I spoke proper English and sounded intelligent, I was trying to be "white", which is the most idiotic thing I could ever think of and so racist. Again, something that totally annoyed me more than anything. And I don't really remember any specific people, just a collective blur.
shareI got lucky. Mine was hit and killed when he was drunk. Best day of my life.
shareLOL One of mine was killed in a motorcycle accident
Boston and Philly wanna slander us, but they don't have as many fans as us
Sure i have run in to one of mine and he tuned out as i expected back then of becoming a total looser. He had flushed his life down the drain on drugs and had been to jail several times for burglary and robbery.
shareIsn't it cool when it turns out that way??
Boston and Philly love to slander us, but they don't have as many fans as us
I love this thread.:) Bullies are nothing but uber wuss if they were tough they won't pick the weaker ones.

I'd like to think that I'm somewhat of a success story from high school, went from being a self proclaimed "loser" esp in middle school-high school with no boyfriends/dates, barely any friends, etc. to being quite successful now: 2 degrees, fairly good job, living in the city in a house, etc. I was pretty badly tormented in middle school and a bit in high school esp from this one girl--both of my tormentors tried to "friend" me on Facebook, but I denied both of these requests--I friended one for a bit out of pure curiosity but was honestly put off by all of the mass Christian messages/proclamations etc.--I think it's odd when bullies proclaim that they are a "better person" due to their newfound religion, charity work (aka Joanna), etc.--it is all a mask IMO. Some of them ignore me and act like nothing happened, others act farrr too fake nice to me but I have never received an apology. This is why I disliked the ending b/c I don't believe that Joanna truly changed (despite the semi apology at the end she was still treating Marnie like sh**) and I thought the brother was an idiot to marry her--still entertaining movie though!

Four years ago, I planned my high school reunion. The girl who bullied me all through grade school and high school acted like we were the best of friends all that time and kept telling everyone how pretty, funny, smart and popular I was.
Go figure!
Haha I run into a few from elementary, jr high and high school. Its funny because some girls turned out to be gay which is probably y they bullied me because they didn't understand their own sexuality. One girl recognized me and I didn't recognize her. I was so shocked and played it off like I could care less of her existence.
I enjoy running into people who treated me like crap in the past because it shows me that karma does exist and now when people are mean to me or try and hurt me I am a lot more patient and I care a lot less.

Yeah, he bullied me throughout middle school, and in our senior year of HS we were classed together again. A year or so after HS he got into an accident and was stuck at home, and we'd often hang out and smoke and even *beep* once. He's a really good friend, actually, but he once was my worst nightmare. I guess it helped that he apologized and realized how terrible he'd made me feel.
