i certainly have. been called ugly, a nerd, goofy, fat when i was younger, was made fun of for not being athletic(nobody will ever laugh at me for my athleticism again lol). just curious if any of you have been bullied a or if youre being bullied by someone now. and how you overcame/ are overcoming it.
have you ever been bullied?
@awesam: i was bullied in elementary and jr high. but puberty was pretty good to me. so in other words when i got to highschool i realized how shallow some people are
oh yeah, i was definitely bullied. its caused me to have many social problems that still persist today. but my becoming a loner did encourage me to embrace my geeky side even though it continually causes people to look down at me for it including family. oh well, i'd rather enjoy what makes me happy than care what someone who probably doesn't like me anyways thinks...
excuse me moderators if you see this. but FUCK what anybody else thinks. ifit makes YOU happy and YOU enjoy it then nobody elses opinion matters. my family laughs at me for watching dbz and reading comics at age 19. but am i gunna stop? yeah as soon as the mets play the cubs in the world series.
@sog7dc: I had my group. We mostly stayed out of the public eye. My brother and sister were really popular, so that helped. I swear, it's like being in a mafia family. I was robbed once, so my sisters friends beat up the guy who robbed me. Mind you, there were two guys and one had a pocket knife. I still didn't hand anyting to them, they had to take it from me.
I got bullied for having braces in my mouth..But I was apart of that preppy group so people stopped bullying me after a while.
ugh i hate thieves....when i was in high school i was just loved lbs. i remember one time some guy was coming at me like he wanted to hit me and before i knew it like 4 people stood in front of me like i had body guards. its a good thing to because as big as i am i am NOT a fighter. gentle giant
You kidding me? I had bleach blond hair and wore hot pink women stretch jeans in high school. Of course I got bullied. The students weren't half as bad as the faculty though.
i don't get it why would anybody bully you for that? and the faculty? i would have sued the ass off of them
you were bullied? lol if that picture was you then i don't c what they could have bullied.
"hey everybody look at the pretty girl haha"
"lols yeah pretty girl i bet youll have no trouble getting an attractive and well spoen boyfriend"
@sog7dc: Yeah just because I was pretty but I had braces in my mouth so people used to call me "metal mouth" for weeks and sh*t...
@amutant said:
I was bullied once. But then I killed his family and lit him on fire.
At least you're honest.
@sog7dc: Being a teen punk in a small town in Kentucky wasn't an easy thing. The students gave me typical grief. "Freak", "Faggot", stuff thrown at me. Rarely anything physical. The teachers and office personnel railroaded me. I got accused of everything from being a cult leader to a child molester. Middle school and high school were a nightmare for me.
@amutant: Just because you suffered does not mean he should suffer too...Putting him in fire that's a little too much...
Yup.
Some kids from my old school (and some members of my family) called me "whiteboy" just because I:
1. Didn't act like some Ghetto immature idiot
2. I cared more about school work and more dedicated to my education
3. Wasn't a racist ignorant,illogical bigot
4. Just like point one,I wasn't an immature idiot. So I didn't have desperate pathetic fantasies of getting laid by women 3x my age (which is actually sad that people are that...pathetic).So basically I wasn't immature and ignorant.
So,just because I wasn't an ignorant,irrational dumbass I was beleaguered.
It caused me to be more reclusive
@mistressoftheelements: ....are....you... trying to bully me...
@amutant: No..Not at all..Never mind :)
Well I was last year. Then I joined the football team, got fit, buff, a bit more popular, and workout at the gym with my uncle. So the people who did push me around are gonna have a more complicated time doing so now.
fuck bullies. to me people who are themselves are the best people to be around. people who are comfortable in their own skin. bullies are just being mean to you to hide their own insecurities
Yup.

Those morons have no idea the path (or should I say cycle) that they follow. They just blindly do LESS than the bare minimum.
They all follow the same pathetic,stupid cycle blindly.They are illogical idiots who seem to NOT CARE that they are basically putting themselves in a deeper rut.They have no idea the importance school has,not only that but they seem to intentionally make things worse for themselves and not give a damn.They live in the now with no look for tomorrow (really stupid thing to do,but they don't really think or use logic at all).Look how well it works out for them all.
And this is just academics.They simply don't care and don't use logic,like at all. (many of them can barely speak english correctly).
Sorry to say,but life would have so much more value without people like them littered on this earth (and emphasis on littered).
Some people wake up to reality,others continue to live in their illogical little world that blocks out fact and logic.
its lie my grandfather used to say "should coulda woulda now you wanna and you cant"

I've gotta use that Tyra gif more often.
lol i havent seem that one b4
Yes. Though I probably wasn't someone many people wanted to mess with directly, there are many ways people can bully. Teenagers are cruel. Looking back now, high school is like a battlefield, one where the "soldiers" actions are based on some misguided, arbitrary loyalty to a clique, trendy notion or idea and are devoid of any real accountability. Though these experiences help define who you are, life doesn't really begin until you make it out on the other side.
Never anything physical, just verbal. People try to make fun of me but I've learned to give sarcastic responses which deters most bullies.
I've also learned to not care what they say because I know its not true. If its funny that I have a future, then laugh. They won't be laughing in 10 years working a dead end job.
Actually, only once, but some ugly A-hole (not my words, everyone thought he was ugly) who picked on my glasses, luckily he dropped out of high school (or died, either is fine by me) at the end of the semester, and from then on, I was pretty much in the clear.
i was a fat kid, still pretty heavy, but i'm 6'3" now so its less of a wide look and more of just a big guy look, and i was NEVER athletic. I got called tons names as a kid and it never bugged me they're just names, i tended to make more friends than enemies, i WAS a likable guy. but it always pisses me off to see the anti-bullying stuff shown on tv and crap, bullying builds character, if you can learn to stand up for yourself and more importantly respect yourself you get a gold star in my books, but if you run to mommy and daddy every time life gets hard and never learn to fight your own battle the world is gonna eat you alive.
Hmmm if u call being intimidated by the varisty football team while I was in the freshman team bullying? That's probably the only thing close to it but other than that not really.
It wasn't extreme, I was never pushed around in the hallways or get beat up, but words do hurt more than a bruise on the face.
Never really bullied, more like picked on. It never got physical, it was just more that people would goad me on and be dicks.
Oh yes most definitely. All the way through school by various people. Don't feel like going into details about it though.
No,not really....in elementary school for like 1 year,or something(?).....i have a good and quite school life,with friends/girlfriend,and everything...(i'm in highschool)
@cameron83: Dude you described everything I was going to say. I got called Whiteboy because I loved rock, pop and some drum and bass, and enjoyed Skateboarding as well.
