Embarrass them. Bullies ego’s are HUGE and embarrassing them in front of other people is like the worst thing you can do to them. They’ll leave you alone after that for sure.

They've already embarrassed me and saw the group is against me, hence if I try not sure it will have an effect.

Doesn’t matter that they’ve already embarrassed you, they will still hate it if you do it to them in front of their friends. This is going to sound mean, but they are being mean to you so it’s fine- find some flaw about one of the people (for example maybe they smell bad, or they have a dumb voice, or they’re desperate for attention, or anything that no one likes to hear about themselves) and just yell it out to everyone, or gag when you walk past them or something to make a big deal out of it. No one likes this being done to them, even if they are a bully. They’ll eventually get the picture that you are not to be messed with, otherwise they’ll cop it! If you really want to be clever, you could even set up something bad and make it look like one of the bullies fault/blame them for it.. this would work well if you’re in the workplace with them.

Hmm they're dumb I know that but if I call them dumb I will look bad.

If they’re your coworkers and you work for a corporation or anywhere with a higher power then take it to HR, even just a manager. You’re not being paid to deal with someone else’s nonsense.

[Asker]

It's worse. It's personal stuff so I'm not even being paid.

I think you should update the question with more context. You’re already anon so it’s not like anyone would know who you are. But giving us vital pieces of info, like who is bullying you and where, would help with knowing how to advise you.

Just how old are you?

[Asker]

Bullies exist in different forms at every age.

A man hitting his wife at age 40-something is a bully as much as he is an abuser for example

[EmmaMary]

Well if that's the case, then perhaps you should try using some of your 30 - 35 years of simple common sense.

Who are they? Co-workers?

[Asker]

Can I dm you to explain the situation?

[Jazzy54]

Sure.
