How mean were your bullies?
I have had trouble with bullies since Kindergarden. No joke. One kid took my glasses off of my face and broke them in front of me. His name was Keith.
I was just curious about what your experiences with bullies have been? Ever stood up to one them? I know I would have had an easier time growing if I would have done that. In high school, there were four girls who harassed me constantly. They made me cry and so angry at times that I would question myself and why they'd do that. What did I do to them? Nothing but they still harassed me. Every day. For four years. Did I stand up to them? No. Why? Because I'm tiny, had no self defense training and they most likely would have kicked my ass. Sometimes it's better to walk away.
But enough of my rant! Let's hear your stories.
Edit: I never fought back. Why? Because it was hard for me, mainly because I've always been small and there were four of them and one of me. -shrugs- I grew from it and now I don't take crap from anyone. (:
Edit 2: I've read some amazing stories, whether you stood up to them, were bullied for reasons out of your control, or were the bully - know that you are loved. It may not seem like it, but you are. There is always someone out there who cares. Everyone here deserves a hug. So -hug-

I was in 5th grade kicking a soccerball in a park and 3 11th graders decided they wanted to beat the shit out of me. When I got home we went to a doctor and found out I had internal bruising. So I got off ok but as a 5th grader it was terrifying, and made me not trust people.

Bad but not as bad as they could get I know. Almost every day I had at least one person say something to me, on occasions it got physical. It got to the point were my mom started bringing me home from school instead of letting me ride the bus. Because one day one of the bullies came home with me on the bus and got after me right on my own street. But I forgive them all, no point in letting that weight stick around forever

Back in 1st grade or so, I got bullied by a girl and a couple boys. The boys held me still while she put my hand in a spider Web (luckily the spider crawled away from my hand). I got bullied off and on til maybe 8th-ish grade. A kid was knocking my books off my desk, I picked them up and told him to stop. He did it a few more times and finally stopped. He got up to go sharpen his pencil and I finally had enough. I picked up my chair and threw it at him. We got into a fight, the teacher broke us up and we both got suspended for a while. Nobody messed with me after that day.

9 RepliesIn Year 1, within the first few days, my teachers had "assigned" me a friend. He was the biggest kid in school. And he took care of me good. I was even put into a box and thrown down the stairs. Hmm.

I was one of those fat/chubby, BigMcLarge kids when I was younger. Had long hair. Was ousted as an outsider among most because of either intelligence, or just the way my noggin was. I was a token outsider in every way. But I was big. Big enough that I had the size factor of intimidation on my side. Most kids didn't try much in the way of physical abuse. But there was a lot of mental. Name calling. Pranks. You know how it goes. The whole works that could be done not to hurt physically but to crush you emotionally. One of the worst offenders was my cousin. She was often the agitator of groups who turned on me. I always felt trapped and did nothing because she was my cousin. My family.....little bit dysfunctional. I didn't want my parents to get involved with her parents and to make a mess more than things already were. So I took whatever was thrown at me in silence. I did the same for kids who were physical. I didn't fight back and just took whatever they doled out. It was a while later, middle school I guess, that one day somebody stepped on me too far when I was having a shit day. The guy started shoving and I snapped. I picked him up off the ground and threw him with all my weight into the lockers. That kid never touched me again after that. But I felt like shit afterwards. I'm not a fighter. Never have been fond of violence. Things rolled along like that for me all the way until I dropped outta school. The only other time I ever stood my ground after the kid I mentioned earlier was when a friend of mine was being attacked by an older kid, a senior from some buggered up family in the area.

didn't have any bullies. anybody that tried talking shit would face a soul crushing comeback and maximum public humiliation.
-
Not bad, any time someone tried to bully me, they ended up on the ground with me beating the shit out of them. Really don't understand how people fall prey to bullies. If you make them bleed, they'll leave you alone.
-
I fukked with the nerdy kids here and there, nothing crazy tho.
-
I sorta had bullies but I never really cared and the expressions I gave them sorta made them feel stupid... So now people don't mess with me because they know that I could really care less

In middle school I always wore this SnapBack to school, and people would take it from me as a joke. Often times it was in good fun, but there was one kid who was a year younger than me who took it to the next level. He'd be delivering something to my teacher and as he walked out the room he'd grab it off me and run out. Eventually I just decided that the next time he grabbed it I was gonna put him in a headlock until he apologized and said he wouldn't do it again. And I did. And he never took it again.

2 RepliesEdited by Jasondurgen: 9/3/2015 3:01:17 AMBullied from around 1st or 2nd grade (give or take a year) up until probably Freshman year of high school. An interesting bunch of people. I'd say they were moderately mean.

Edited by Geth: 9/3/2015 2:58:46 AMHad 1 person who attempted to bully me at the beginning of high school. I was a freshman, he was a senior. Didn't last long, dude was twice my size being older then me and all. But this Mexican who rode my bus who was huge picked the guy up in the middle of the locker room and practically beat him to sleep. From their on out, I was cool with everyone and never had a problem. Idk, if it was because people liked me or if it was because of how big my family was and the kinda friends I had. Either way, didn't get picked on. I feel sorry for the ones of you who did. It's f[i]u[/i]cked up I know. I bullied a kid for a few weeks in high school who was just trying to goof off and make friends. He went a little over board one day and I snapped and ended up hurting him. I regretted it. I had a temper. But I learned from it.

I don't personally have any stories about me being bullied but I have one about my girlfriend. Onetime this kid was talking complete shit to her when I was right there but the second he saw me he immediately went the other way, i imagine it has to do with fact that I was 6 foot 3 inches tall anda freshman in highschool
-
Kids use to make fun of me cuz I had allergies and was severely sleep deprived so they thought I did drugs. So one day in math class they were mocking me so I told the one kid to -blam!- off and he said that I was too much of a pussy to do shit bout it so I told him to fight me at lunch which was right after the class so we went out into the student parking lot with a crowd of people and I laid him out and broke his nose... Blood everywhere... All I left with was a black eye. So I think I won

I'm 5'2 on a good day, I still fight. Being little doesn't mean squat. Knuckle up and start swingin. What does it mean that you grew out of it anyway? You grew older or what?

8 RepliesMy parents passed when I was in 6th so kids being assholes teased me about that for a while. One of them actually tried to stab me with a knife. Just by reflexes I guess I dodged and punched him in the jaw. After that, no one messed with me and my friends

1 ReplyBeaten to near death and had my spleen ruptured

The bullies where I live do more verbal abuse, you have to actually do something to someone's to get beat
-
I was verbally abused, never anything physical. Yeah, it hurt then but I know i'm a better person than any of them could ever dream of being.
-
No one bullies me I'm pretty popular in school and get along with people plus I'm pretty tall and work out a lot so I can kick ass
-
3 RepliesHad this one kid with some lackeys that would constantly verbally and physically abuse me over my 'differences' (dyslexic, dyspraxic and I have aspergers. Fun combo). I eventually snapped after about 3 years and in the ensuing fight I bit a chunk out of his arm. Not a small chunk either (I have oddly sharp teeth) Funnily enough people didn't bother me after that.

I am the subject bullying.....

I'm pretty big but I can't really stand up to bullies. The only way to get past it is to change your attitude and show something small and meager but virtuous. The reason I say change your attitude is because you can't find a moment and react on purpose. It'll happen on accident just be friendly the fruits of the spirit in the bible help, the scout law helps, even watching something like my little pony helps realize what you need to change. This won't stop bullying but it will rally people behind you that'll support you. Also a little humility wouldn't hurt

19 RepliesIn high school I met this girl and we became friends. I was going through a very tough period and she was my only friend there. Something bad happened and I told her. She was very nice and supporting when I told her. The next day I had to go to the hospital for some tests. The day after, when I came back, everyone at school knew and they [u]all[/u] laughed, gave me names, basically gave me a tough time. After a month of constant bullying (during class, break, lunchtime, after school) and constant crying and feeling disgusted of myself thanks to their hard words, I left the school and went to another one.
