I also want to know how the bullying affected you in terms of insecurities or long term effects? And looking back would you have reacted differently?

And in high school I was never bullied but there was a kid that live down the street from me they used to take my same bus and he was a slow kid and
At my high school we had something called the senior benches nobody could sit on them except for the seniors
Well this kid didn't know that. And one day he said on the senior benches and there was three seniors trying to pick him up to put him in a garbage can and I broke that up.. and then I sat on the senior benches to make a poiint . And then there was a fight.
And that got broke up and then there was a full out war because my friends got involved and then the school got involved all
*juniors and sophomores *.
and then
One Saturday the Juniors met up with the seniors but we had over 300 guys they only had like 45 guys. And then the school principal got involved and then there was no more senior benches
I had a lot of new senior friends because they respected what I did and they couldn't believe that myself and like five of my friends had the whole school backing my play and everybody that showed up that day22 Reply- 1 y

Well I had to it wasn't the first time the first time was walking through a hallway and there was a bunch of kids gathered and they were all kind of yelling and like saying hit him hit him and I just kept walking by and out of the corner of my eye I could see this kid pushing somebody up against the wall and then I saw that it was the kids that I was talking about JT and I took probably 10 more steps and I realized that somebody needed to stop that because there's no way he's going to fight back so I had to turn around walk through the crowd of people grab a hold of the guy and pull them off and I told him if he ever touched my friend again that I would kick his ass
And then I somewhat tried to embarrass him say why don't you fight that girl over there at least she can fight back and then I said why don't you ever pick on somebody that can kick your ass how come you always pick on weak people and I told him he better not touch my friend again and I knew who the kid was and he had three or four of his friends right there with him and I said and if any of you touch my friend I will kick your ass
So from that moment on JT thought we were best buddies which was cool it didn't matter to me he was just a kid that lived down the street from me and I was going to allow that to happen
But the guys that picked on him didn't pick on him anymore but they started picking on JT's friends that were just like JT so by the time it was all over I had like five more new friends because every time one of his friends would get picked on I had to stop that too

1 yNot only was i bullied in school, I was also bullied at home. Raised by a single mother who resented the fact her husband left her for a 15 year old after being adopted, and needed someone, a male, to take it out on. Beaten with skillets, 2x4's, car fan belts, aluminum baseball bats. Called every hurtful name in the book that a black woman could come up with.
Attending Detroit Public Schools was a fucking nightmare. I was never accepted for who i was. I was the outcast, the black nerd who went down his own path, and was hated because he wasn't a follower. I was made fun of for my appearance, how I talked, my haircuts, every flaw i had that these N******* could find, i got made fun of for it. I got my ass beat in the neighborhood. I fell into a depression at the age of six years old after being adopted and i never recovered.
I'm now a extremely bitter black man who has an extreme hatred for everyone and everything.

Yes, attending more than a dozen different schools K-12, I was bullied repeatedly throughout my grade school years, and although it was obviously very unpleasant at the time, I’m exceedingly grateful for it today.

"I’m exceedingly grateful for it today."
Wow, I have never heard anyone say that before! :O
Would you be willing to tell us why?

1 yEither try to avoid those assholes when they wanted to fight me or fought back when it couldn't be avoided. Problem is, so many of them wanted to fight me that I'd get mixed up in numerous fights with various people so, if I WAS involved in a fight, even though I DIDN''T START IT, I'M THE ONE that got into the most trouble for it!!
The thing you gotta realize is, bullies only think they're king shit until the guy they bully can take them down!! Then, ALL OF A SUDDEN, they become your good friend!!
I had band class one day in Jr. High. I walked into the classroom and was starting to go up to the back of the riser, where the rest of the drummers go, and this kid started picking on me and preventing me from going up to the drum section! He put his right hand on the metal pipe railing around the upper tier and refused to let me pass as he made fun of me. After a moment or two, I had both of my sticks in my hand and gave the knuckles on his right hand a good shot with both sticks at the same time and he moved his hand in severe pain REAL fast!! After that, he was VERY nice to me!!12 Reply- 1 y

Thank you! It comes from, lots of experience! Mostly, the bullies will ONLY pick on the people they see as weaker than them so that THEY can look tougher because they just beat up another person and won! Yeah? Try that with someone your equal or stronger?
They'd ESPECIALLY love it if you (like me) are taller/bigger than them because that PROVES they're tougher because they beat up the tall guy that didn't wanna fight in the first place!!
D'y'ever notice how, if a weaker person that he picks on suddenly gets a larger person to protect them, the bully NEVER goes after the bigger guy and will ONLY pick on the smaller one and ONLY when the bigger one's not around? Hmmm, I WONDER why that is? Maybe the bully's not as tough as he likes to think he is?
1 yI've had thick skin since I was a little kid. Words don't bother me. When people talk shit, I just usually say something like you sure run your mouth a lot... like a girl... and you're not even my girlfriend. Shit like that really pisses guys off and then they start threatening to fight me, and then I say something like you going to nag all day or you going to do something? If they don't take a swing at me, I tell them they're too much of a pussy to do anything. If we happen to be in a clothing store or something like that, I'll tell them the women's clothes section is right over there, why don't you go try on a dress and get dolled up. I just fuck with them until they make a mistake and then once they do I destroy them.
10 Reply1.1K opinions shared on Family & Friends topic. I bullied them back/I confronted them. No it didn't create insecurities because I was able to act immediately instead of allowing them to step on me and I never considered the possibility that I deserved to be treated like shit. My family taught me that if someone treats me poorly, I have to retribute. If someone treats me kindly, I have to treat them kindly too.
I never snitched on anyone, I simply took matters into my own hands.10 Reply401 opinions shared on Family & Friends topic. It only happened when I was in primary school , very briefly , my response was pretty aggressive at the time , after that I was never really bothered again , at secondary school , all my friends were older ( mainly though sport ) , so I never had to deal with it..
I would not have done too much differently with regard bullies anyhow..
I always played to the beat of my own drum.
10 Reply3.7K opinions shared on Family & Friends topic. I joined a gym in the next town so nobody would know who I was. I trained with weights 4 or 5 times a week and I lost weight and got in shape. After a year or so the football coach asked me if I would go out for the team. My gym teacher asked me what was going on with me. This was back when weight training was not a mainstream activity. Kids left me alone after that.

1 yI wouldn't... I would wait for them to get bored because of my indifference :D
but in real life, I strangely attracted all scums in school... so I never was bullied at school :D30 ReplyThey tried.
Sounds like I beat them up like john wick.
But no, I gave no reaction so they got bored mad quick so it never escalated to more than a few teasing remarks whatever.
I also got along with them individually.
I was a good drawer and people went nuts over dbz drawings.
I was good at sports.10 Reply
Anonymous(36-45)1 yThere are kids who commit suicide from being bullied, either online or in person. I used to be bullied but when 2 girls bullied me in the bathroom once too often it was like Mad Max, 3 girls entered, one girl came out. A fat lip never said anything bad to me again, and a black eye never gave me any dirty looks anymore. ~😂~
