bullying....

[PrincessKiara]

I’ve never been seriously bullied, but I have suffed through A LOT of name-calling, and general teasing from boys at school. It started in the 2nd grade, when I was 8. One boy would call me mean things like "curly toad head" (my curls was one of the things he would pick on me for). When you’re an extremly shy and insecure little kid, comments like that hurt really bad.
After a while, I talked to my teacher about it, and she called the boys parents. After that he stayed away from me.

When I got a bit older, (junior high) several boys from my class would get together against me and say mean things to me about my looks and other things. I would try to defend myself by running after them and trying to hit them. It was the only way I knew to react: with violence. At home I had not been taught to solve conflicts with words..
The boys would get me so angry, and all the strong, negative feelings would build up inside me until I just..snapped, and ran after them trying to hit them. I was not fast nor strong, so the boys just got amused by this..

By the time I got to high school all teasing and bulliying had stopped completly. The bullies moved to other schools, and the ones who were left at my school eventually stopped bothering me.

You know, I remember that the first time that I went to high school, there were this group that bullied me, the reasone was that I didn't want to join to a "gang"

Oh god, I was bullied for all of my school life :\
I don't even know why! They never gave a reason.

But it's made me very shy and withdrawn
Even stupid little comments make me sad now...

However, going to college and making friends made me feel a lot better about myself ^^ and finding Ian was just the best!
I think working with horses also helped, because they don't care what you look like and you can tell them anything!

That's the magical thing about animals ^.^ No matter how old you are, what you look like, what your personality is... they'll still listen to you and won't tell any secrets!

Just because you wouldn't join a gang? I really don't see the problem with that Bullies are so pathetic really, aren't they?

See what I mean? There's nothing bad about having curls, I think they look pretty ^^ I bet they were just jealous lol!

I get the usual bullying because I won't be a chav, but the people trying to annoy me aren't exactly the brightest sparks around & I can win just about any argument with them, so I don't let it effect me, we just avoid each other most of the time.

[quote="MusicLion101"][quote="Amanda"]Nice stories everyone. I learned so much from all of them lol. ^^
Back in the fourth and fifth grade I was bullied by this horrible group of boys that would constantly pick on me and call me words no 9-year-old should ever be called. They would tease me, grab my stuff, trip me up, and basically give me hell. o.o I was only a little kid and reeeeally innocent and shy back then (literally would never harm a bug) so I never thought to hit one of them back. Plus I was one of the youngest and shortest kids in my class >.>. The teachers were no help either. One time this dude even threw a book at me and made my eye bleed... and then another time a girl twisted my arm and made me cry. But one day I finally snapped and gave their leader a bloody nose to remember me by After that they never bothered me again. Most of them even left the school lol. I can't say I'm proud of it but at least I got rid of the problem. ^^
That's it lol[/quote]

Nice make them bleeeeeeeeed [/quote]
That time when the girl made me cry something inside of me broke and I felt this intense anger and hatred I can't even describe. It was the first time I actually wanted to kill someone.. like set them on fire and stuff... and I was only like, 10. =\ I've never felt that way since -.-'
lol sorry if all this sounds kind of emo

[thanigraphics]

man, pretty heavy stories.... I'll post mine later.. it's pretty long, though..
what's a "chav" btw? I don't know zeh word..

[WildSimba]

A chav is a person who walks around all day, usually with their hat on backwards, and smoke cigerettes, and basically try to act like their cool. Their really annoying, and stupid, and we even get them here in america, lol.

Most of the bullying stoped once I entered high school. But I can be an agressive person, if anyone REALLY got me mad. I also am very good with finding peoples good sides. So now it's easier to make loads of friends, lol. I really couldn't of done that in middle school.

In middle school, is was mainly random things. I hung out with a lot of girls (Because of my ex-girlfriend), in middle school, so everyone figured I was gay. Even my girlfriend would ask me if I was gay and stuff. I'd be like, I'm not. Just because I can score chicks, lol. But yeah, my Ex was a real butt in 8th grade, and I almost punched her once, but then I told myself it's not worth it, and it would look bad on me hitting a girl. We're friends again now, because she's realized it was stupid, and she only picked on me because of her insecuritys. In fact at first, when we were dating, we had to "hide" it from her friends, then I told her, I'm not hiding us dating.

Elementry school... I was not really old enough to think of what picking on someone meant, so I was completely oblivious to those kind of comments.

You guys have had it way harder then me, though, wow.

Forgot to mention, I have been bullied a few times online. I know it's because their insecure, and have too much time on their hands. Yeah, beside the SK incident, which I am not saying if you don't already know... that wasn't really bullying, that was just getting mad over a girl online, yeah, stupid. lol.
