how where you bullied

[MaxwellEdison]

After kindergarten, I wasn't. I stood up for myself, kids learned I wasn't worth the physical pain that resulted from bullying.

Apparently I was too sensitive and nice compared to everybody else so I became the main target. Latter it was less bullying and more surrounded by ignorant people. We were all fucking monsters in middle school.

Oddly though in our senior year we all looked at each other and apologized for all the bulling we did to each other. Then everybody in our grade either became friends or became neutral. By then I was already serving half days in another school, so I never got bullied again and was more happier.

Something....happens to us in middle school. I noticed that the peak trolling I got was in that time. Looking at other posts there are similar stories. Why are we so heartless in 6th-8th grade?

Why are we so heartless in 6th-8th grade?

Most would say hormones, but I think it's more to do with the fact that we spend our childhoods looking up to the popular people, and since they tend to terrorize the less popular people, we think that it's ok to follow in their footsteps.

I was never really bullied. Got called "A fucking nerd" twice. Mostly I just kinda hung out with one guy (though he's been works all the time and it's been like that since he was 13) and people left me alone. I go to a really small school and have known the people forever. That probably helps (the people who called me a nerd [pretty acurate title] weren't from round here). I would defend people when they got bullied (that's how I made my first friend).

verbal abuse is common, but it's funny, because it's stupid, unoriginal crap.

never get physical abuse sine i'm physically bigger than quite a few people.

This one guy always insulted and taunted me in high school whenever he saw me, and some hicks threw eggs at my friends and I in the cafeteria once. They didn't get in any trouble, either. I managed to get out of high school with out TOO much of a bother, though. At college, quite a few times I've heard bros call me a dyke when I walk by. Nothing too bad, I guess, all things considered.

Luckily for me, my status in school is "the popular nerd" so most people who bully me are unpopular themselves but there is this once girl who persists to this day. See she is unpopular with other girls and hates that I am popular yet a geek so she insults me behind my back and tells her on friend who is a boy to try and either hurt or annoy me in gym class where he can kinda get away with it. Luckily she doesn't have that much power to turn the school against me so she can't really hurt me emotionally very much.

Well, I was(and still am) slightly overweight. This kid who called himself my best friend would go around telling people I was really fat, People I didn't even know would come up to me and tell me I'm fat, fuck that kid.

And I can't believe TheOnlyBlaze2 got a probation for being supportive and friendly.

 

[CATS FTW]

I was one of the only white kids in my school, and in sixth grade this asshole got his friends to attack me and in self defense I really made the kid look stupid, (bloody face), but then he told his older brother in eighth grade and he punched me in the face. Now I'm the tallest person in ninth grade and I sometimes see the kid on the street but I'm confident I could just ruin him now so I don't mind.

I am at secondary school now and in it you have the cool kids and the 'retards'. The cool kids well thats kind of self explanetory. The 'retards' were anyone who was different to the cool kids.

In middle school I started many fights ,for some reason, and lost most of them. The one person who I got into the most fights is now of my only friends of sorts. (more on that in a bit)

I used to/still do hang out with the cool kids as I thought they were guenuinally my friends and now all they do is take the piss out of anything I do. And I have no Idea how to react to it. It drives me crazy but I have no ability to do anything.

I also hate anyone who is on the same level as me and will try to isolate my self from them.

Times change, I went into secondary school with 3 close firends and by the time the 5 years were up, none of us spoke to eachother. You make more friends and forget about old ones. It sounds bad but that is just life.

Thank you =)

I had a guy try to use the hook part of a hockey stick to hit me in the balls,
He was behind me put the stick between my legs and pulled hard,
Luckily it hit my leg,
I spun around, not looking or caring who it was and swang with everything I had,
I hit the guy in the upper arm so hard it sent him hopping a meter to the left,
After making it clear that the next one would be aimed at his skull he beat a hasty retreat,
Apparently the Teacher saw the whole exchange and didn't act on it,
The guy didn't bother me at all after that,
Its true what they say, Stand up to them and they runaway, its happened several time for me!
Plus being an expert at the whole 'slobbering at the mouth crazy eye look' helps too!

I was bullied, mostly verbally. I spent all my times hidden in staircases or in the bathrooms to avoid the ones who thought I was ugly, looked like a boy, was a fucking nerd. Granted, I wasn't pretty, and even a bit on the fat side, but that's hardly a reason. I didn't really helped my cause either: I was victimizing myself. At the time, I thought I was so unlucky and didn't deserve it all and life was a *****. Looking back now, I just realize I was an easy target.

The only time someone threw something at me was in biology class, and we were dissecting a pig heart. Let's just say that my t-shirt was covered with red spots afterward.

Funny enough, the bastards that were so great to pick on me are losers without jobs now. And I'm freaking hot, so there ya go.

Don't know if this counts, but i once said in Geography that i wanted to move to Japan when i grew up. The Teacher then immediatly said "hmm, maybe, with a bit of luck, an earthquake will hit and you'll be killed!" Cue gobsmacked and disgusted class.

 

[Reveras]

You pick the way and I had it, dad was an alcoholic, mom was always at work so it was already hard for me to talk to some folks, then I discovered writing and it was helpful so I kept on doing it. Spent most of school being picked on and embarrased for it, high school even more thanks to the shalow nature of the people in general. And after it all, it made me stronger because while the others kept on their current course of growing up into just slightly older douchebags, I on the other hand am a half dead inside emotionally crippled person that doesn't give 2 shits on anyone. And I'm in law school since to quote a show called Community "after the divorce settled the only person I have ever admired in my life was leaving the courtroom, then got in his mercedes and drove away. He couldn't care, he wouldn't care, it wasn't his job to care".

 

[Meatman]

I had quite bad acne so that was one of the things I was bullied for. I'm a slippery bastard though as I managed to wriggle out of 4 of them trying to pin me down in the playground...

Elementary school it was just a lot of name calling and being shut out. I used to play in a dirt patch in a field.

The guy in sixth grade who had a locker above mine would open it and smack me in the head all the time. Girls would talk about me in sign language right in front of me even though I could more or less understand them.

In high school it was harassment than anything. I went through a goth phrase and people would ask me if I had kinky sex with the group of guys that I hung out with or something. I had one guy leer over me and say that he could dominate me and then I could dominate him.

 

[ThePinkAcidSmurf]

Once got jumped by some guy in class, he ended up trying to suffocate me by holding me by the neck, he probably didn't count on survival instinct kicking in, he let go when I bit him hard enough. Got called into the principal office and told I could have been arrested for violence but that quickly went away when I pointed out that the only way he could get bit that way would be if he was killing me.

How the flying fuck were you in trouble? Were the witnesses all terrified or something?

There were no witnesses to the incident itself. He went to the principal because I bit him and probably made up a story.

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

Never bullied. No serious emotional damage. Cushioned upper-middle class life. Always loving family. Sorry guys.

I was bullied quite a bit , not much , I just ignored it ...........no more bullying now

Same here, things are all good now. I was bullied for one simple reason; I was a bit of a nerd. When I was younger I was very into Lord of the Rings. When I say into it I mean I knew almost everything about it, watched all the films, collected LOTR warhammer read the thousand page book twice by the time I was ten, etc. This earned me the nickname "Frodo". I started being called this when I was 12. It made my blood boil then and it would if anyone called me it now. I suppose I just didn't want to be seen as childish, no big deal really. However, people thought it was very funny when I got angry, so kept taunting me. Obviously being a naive youg teenager I reacted. A vicious cycle. Luckily as I got older I seperated my self more easily from the bullying types and also began to seem scarier when I got angry, due to me bulking out and seeming slightly crazy when I got angry. Then I just ignored and it all stopped. This was greatly helped by all the bulies leaving the school for various different reasons.

I would say i was bullied in 4th and 5th grade. Not physically but verbally. Laughed at, being called names behind my back, being back-stabbed by my best friends. I cried once in 4rd grade and my mom scolded me for it. Now in middle school I'm just being ignored by them.
