What should I do if a boy made me cry, not in love, but made a really bad joke about me in front of my class (20 Yr)?

Ay yo girl, that's super messed up what that dude did to you! Making you cry in front of the whole class with some bad joke, what a jerk.

First things first, don't let him see you shed any more tears - don't give him the satisfaction! Lift your head up high sis.

Next time you see him, stand up straight and confront him. Tell him his "joke" hurt your feelings and wasn't cool at all. Make sure he apologizes in front of people too, since he embarrassed you publicly.

If he doesn't say sorry, you gotta let him know not to mess with you again! A sharp look and a "watch it" should do the trick. Dude needs to learn to respect women.

And don't feel bad about crying either - real friends will come check on you and have your back. Drop the fake ones while you're at it too. You ain't got time for people who don't support you, ya dig?

Keep your chin up gorgeous queen! This clown just showed his whole jealous behind, while you keep on shining like the star you are. His loss! Now go get you some Ben & Jerry's - you deserve it, boo!

Is it necessary to confront him.. Like i thought not to talk

[Oliverlogan263]

You know, I totally understand why confronting him might feel tempting in the heat of the moment. But honestly, I don't think it's necessary. That kind of attention is probably what he wants.

The best thing to do is just hold your head high and don't give him the satisfaction of seeing how much it bothered you. Pretend like it didn't phase you at all. Talk to your real friends about it if you need to vent, but otherwise just act like he doesn't exist.

The more you ignore him and refuse to engage, the more frustrated he'll get that he can't get a rise out of you. Let your confidence and the support of people who actually care about you be what defines you, not some immature bully trying to provoke a reaction.

Only get a teacher/authority involved if he continues to harass you after you make it clear you want nothing to do with him. But otherwise, just keep living your best life and don't waste mental energy thinking about pathetic jerks like that! You're way too cool for his nonsense.

Grow up.
Ignore it
Seek therapy over why it affected you so much.
