Were you a victim of bullying?


Did you ever get bullied while in school? I had some issues with two different guys. One of them being my second cousin. But I stood up to them and it stopped.

What about everyone else?

yes I got bullied in grade and high school and at home. occasionally fought back. I was very good at being punched in the face but not being knocked down or out. I liked throwing bullies into walls or spiting on them

I was bullied from when I first started school until high school. It went so far that I thought about killing myself. Thankfully, I didn't, but bullying can really be devastating.

Same here. It finally stopped in 10th grade tho. (Grew to 6 ft 1) I was verbally bullied by a Jock.

I wish I had been strong enough to stand up for myself or just decked the Douche. One of those if I could have a do over....

Yes, I fought back a couple of times not that it did anything.

I was severely bullied when I was in middle school. I was really shy and a bit nerdy so of course I didn't fight back, but I did tell the principal and the kids who bullied me were actually sent to a delinquent school for the rest of the year. Wasn't bullied that badly in HS, thank god.

Not excessively. I had the occasional remarks from some wiseass, but that seemed to be par for the course regarding everyone at some point. It only stuck out to me because I was the one it happened to. I remember in 7th grade, this smart girl used to make snide comments every time I got papers back with a good grade, and I realized that she was an academic-minded girl and she felt threatened by me because our school had rankings and I was always placed slightly higher than her. After that, her comments meant less to me because it just showed she thought I was better, though one time she said "Nerd" when I got a paper back and I was not feeling well that day, so I turned around and told her "Shut up, bitch." Just flat out said it. She didn't respond.

Another time a girl made a comment about something I was wearing while we waited for the bus and I told her she was "f'ing rude" and she clammed up and didn't say anything.

A kid did TRY to bully me in high school and I mostly ignored him, but one day he got the idea it would be funny to frog punch me in the back after class and I LOST it and basically said don't EVER do that again mixed with some curse words and caused a bit of a scene, and I think being confronted about it in front of everyone like that (I mean people stopped to stare at us) made him realize he was not prepared to be the center of attention and he decided I was not worth it and stopped bothering me.

Come to think of it, every time I was bullied, standing up for myself put an end to it as I never had issues with any particular person after that.
