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?

In school not at all. But in my country we have something similar to those US public school buses but one you have to pay the driver, so it's private not public. For many years I went in the same car and left twice (2003 and 2007) because those kids simply didn't like me as quiet as I could be. After the second time, I still had walk across the van and they would keep calling me names from there.

In middle school/junior high school a little bit, but by high school I was pretty good at fighting and the bullies didn't consider me worth picking on.

I remember when the Columbine shooting happened and it was partly blamed on bullying. Those guys were 12th graders. Based on my own experience, I couldn't imagine people still being bullied at that age, but I guess it does happen.

Yes, and still am. I'm in high school, and bullied quite a lot by my peers.

Hurt them like you are trying to kill them and it will stop. If you actually do kill them, that's fine, just self defense.

I think everyone has been bullied at one time or another, but the reverse doesn't hold true as not everyone was bullies themselves. I kind of got lucky I suppose. I went from being the guy other's would tag and say you got the so and so touch.. to being the most popular guy in school. Not that it really mattered, same (censored) different pile.

My take home from all of it? Like yourself. Be comfortable with who you are. That's half the battle in life.

Unfortunately I was a victim of bullying. It happened in the mid 90s till the late 90s. It was these boys and girls who were mean to me. When I graduated school at 16 years old, I was happy! If I was bullied right now, it could have been a lot worst then before.
