When did the bullying STOP?

Post Reply New Topic

i hear you there. i've done that a few times. you bike? good for you! it's enjoyable.

as for forums, the people on them tend to suck anyway. this one and nicoclub have been the only one's i've really enjoyed. although, i am glad there are no trolls on this one. when i introduced myself on nico, i got a troll right away, and i have never heard of the concept! haha. bad times. people also don't like it when you prove them wrong, esp. online, when they think they can act a certain way and get away with it. then, i just give it to them, reasonably and coldly. it's funny watching what they've typed, with their tail between their legs, still trying to act bada**.

ugh, never work in a restaurant and never ever work with a guy who's only function is executive. he used to find all sorts of ways to belittle me, over and over again. in hindsight, i probably should have just layed it all on him.

i love being treated like a human being. i can't wait to return to the gardening center in the spring...

The bullying stopped in gr12 i guess but now in university there is this guy that kind of bullies me. Good thing I poured water on him twice but it was only after he insisted that he doesn't care and called me a wus when i didn't splash him with water.

I'm still bullied everywhere I work...but I'm one of those horrible people who "Don't do mad" (at least until I get in my car...then I'm balling)
But when people try to pull s**t on me, I go with the flow.
I fear conflict on all fronts and in all forms.
I'm so scared to piss people off or say the wrong thing, that I get myself into a lot of trouble.
I like things calm.
People can take a stab, that doesn't mean I have to stab back.

I left school because I was bullied so severely, in the second-to-final year. I was sent to a special school, where aside from a girl taking advantage of my gullibility, I was never really bullied while attending. During college people mainly avoided me. I got bullied occasionally, but it was a lot milder than in the past, and only from a few individuals. In University, I've not been bullied at all for my shy/awkwardness. I have been a couple of times for being trans, though.

I know what you mean, gnatterfly. I've never really been any good at getting angry with people either. I can get frustrated, mainly with myself, but I always tend to run away from confrontation.

It stopped when i finished school since then things have been better.

I wasn't bullied in elementary school but was in junior high. They call that middle school nowadays. By high school, the bullying stopped, basically because most of the bullying types dropped out. Had some problems fitting in during 9th and 10th grade but found a bunch of guys that were like me by the 11th grade. I was a bit of non-conformist so were these guys. We were a collective of non-conformists! ( if there can be such a thing)

Haven't been bullied since about 1980. My message to the younger ones still in school: don't let them have their way with you. You have every right to do what you're doing. Get help- that could be a teacher, Mom & Dad, or even get your older brother who plays football to rough 'em up a little. If not, find a kind hearted beefy dude that will stick up for you and watch your back. Things will improve.

For people at work: There are schmucks in every workplace. Sometimes they will be your boss, other times your co-workers. Do your job and get home to the people you love. Don't let society define you by what you do for a living. It's just a way to bring home some money.

I think it's human nature and we have to figure out a way not to be such an easy target.

For example, just recently, I learned that I probably creep people out when they are talking to me because I kind of stare at them (or not make eye contact at all). You're supposed to move your eyes around their face. But don't just stare at a mole or scar or something.

I have been practicing this technique because I was bullied by my boss all week.

When my parents pulled me out of public school.

Never.

People stopped bullying me when I stopped bullying myself.
