I think I might've overreacted...

Post Reply New Topic

Today, I was in class trying to do my work. There are these 3 girls in my group (none of them, I like compared to the other 2 (whom we shall call R and C). We'll just call them K, P, and N. I sit right across from K. K sits next to N. P sits next to me. K, P, and N was eating candy all day (I can't stand Jolly Ranchers. They're too sticky, they get stuck on your teeth, and they make too much noise). K was leaving the wrappers all over the place and I just tried to ignore it. Very hard to ignore when they're all in your ear. Then after lunch K put a piece of the wrapper in her mouth and spit it at my handwriting book. Then I pushed my book off the desk because I didn't want to touch it. Then P kept giving it back to me. I bluntly said I don't want my book, then she threw it on my desk. Then K spit out the Jolly Rancher out on 2 pages in her Religion Book. Later on when we was doing Social Studies (a personal favorite Subject, by the way), K took the 2 pages from her Religion book and wiped it on my Social Studies notebook. Then I pushed my notebook off my desk because I. Did. Not. Want. It. Then N threw my book at me. I ripped the page I was working on out of my book. I put the paper on her desk. Then K threw it back in my face (I washed my face rigorously to rid myself of K's germs).

Long, drawn out story told. I overreacted, didn't I?
Plus, it would be awesome, just uber awesome, if any of you get like this.

There are things I cannot accept, and will not,
as in the un-acceptable notebook, stupid pencils, etc.

I'd have ripped the whole book into pieces and
threw the pieces at her, then threw the desk
at her as well.

It is about the same thing I would have
done.

I would have flipped out.

Yes, you did. However your fears of contamination could be some form of OCD, which is somewhat treatable.

In the future...

It should be, "Later on, when we were doing Social Studies[/quote]

If it is common to say "we was" amongst your family and friends, then it is fine to use amongst them, but using such phrases when addressing the general public will give people the impression that you are uneducated.

I dont think you over reacted. They were bullying you and they have no right to. Next time tell the teacher, they shouldnt get away with doing that.

How about going into my desk, taking my gloves, throwing them back and forth and then I get angry and throw a book? Overreacting then?

No you DID NOT overreact! This is how it all starts!

You have to make very clear you`re not to be messed with! But don`t get angry because they think its funny to make people angry (wait till they piss the wrong person)

It started nearly the same way for me years ago. The result was me changing school and dropping to a lower level of education.

I know it was wrong but i went crazy and actually got into a fight with 2 off them at once. I felt so good after that!

I don't think you overreacted at ALL. You handled it a hell of a lot better than I would.

How would you handle it then?




What was your fight about? Was they doing this since you was in the lower grades (they've been picking on me since 3rd grade)?

I wasn't angry that they thought it was funny to make me angry, I was angry that:

a) I had money in my gloves (like quarters, nickels and dimes)
b) The fact that they went in my desk is an invasion of my privacy
c) The gloves are my property, and there's a school rule about not touching someone else's property without permission
d) It was unnecessary
e) They've been making a mockery of my gloves since I've had them


Then it's the fact that they've been treating me like a second class citizen ever since they've got their posse together (about 2nd to 5th grade). If I did that to them I would be in the wrong, right? And the fact that they're all liars, thieves and hypocrites makes me even madder. They say they want everyone to get along, yet they cause problems.


And the fact I have a temper like my father makes it worse... It takes 3 people to hold him down when he's angry.

I would have either wound up hurting myself or them. I get out of control if people keep going with stuff like that. I would have started throwing punches. I get downright violent with people like that, and it's really frightening. It's pretty embarrassing, too.

How's that embarrassing?

This is pretty embarrassing, if you ask me:

I punched my brother in the face more than once and busted his lip. Then I got the knife and tried to kill him (my mom took it away) while he was crying in the corner. Another time I cracked the broomstick over his head. Then I was balled up in the fetal position crying about how things would be better if he didn't exist.

Then a week later, my brother's birth mother called ACS on my mom because I tried to kill him with a knife...

...And I was 9 when that happened...
...And he was 6...
...And during that time frame I was still in my karate class...

And the funny part about what happened today was that I threw the book, it flew past Izaiah's head, and no one did anything. They just looked at me while I was yelling on and on about my gloves.

That's the kind of thing I do. That's why I got rid of all my blades I used to collect. Anyway, it's embarrassing to get in a fight over something NTs wouldn't even get upset over. Especially when there are over 1,000 people in the school cafeteria watching. Especially when that's how most people remember you. I'm not sure that it actually does embarrass me, but I know that it should, and I know I'm looked down on for it. Even earlier this week, I decked some guy because he wouldn't give me my space, and me and him aren't on bad terms anymore, as he knows me and how I get, but it happened in class and other people are scared of me.

Damn, you used to collect blades? Like bowie knives or switch blades?

Plus, my temper's a reason I can't own a gun, but I'd like one. I'd bring it to school and shoot a lot of people.

Now that I thought about it, that is pretty embarrassing. Yet, I don't see how they can't get mad at things like that!

There's 36 kids in my class and only 2 other people that I know of overreact like that (only Marcus (to a limit) and Sage (she just cries). I was chastised by a majority of the girls in class, but all of the boys practically congratulated me (hi-fives, knuckle pounds, and handshakes).

Deep down inside, they're probably laughing.

I had switches and stilettos. Most of them vintage. They became a problem when I got used to carrying at least one around. I have two that were my grandfather's, and I don't plan to get rid of them.

I doubt they're laughing at you. If they saw how the other girls were harassing you, they probably just think you have a temper. If those girls act like that a lot, everyone is probably thinking, "I'm glad SOMEBODY told them off." I wouldn't stress too much.

You. Had. Stilettos!
Oh My!
I Think I Fell In Love With You!

Everyone (except the teachers... and they say care) sees. And yes, I have a temper like my father . They actually do act like that a lot, Vanessa (a girl that was (and probably still is) their friend) said they act like that a lot... So, no one is laughing?

Plus... David, Raynard, Ben (Bentfel), and James just congratulated me more than once.

I think by now, they've forgotten, lol. Not you and the girls, but the rest of the class. Especially after the weekend. You'll be good tomorrow, I think.
