<p>Don’t let what they say affect you or hinder you in any way… just ignore them and go by your own standards for yourself. Don’t let yourself look back and say, “wow, I could have done so much better if they hadn’t bullied me.” Do the best you can, and you’ll be a stronger person for it :)</p>
<p>Also, it gets better in college, so don’t worry :)</p>
<p>Lol, Warts I am sorry if I offended you.</p>
<p>That’s ok:) No worries:></p>
<p>you can only “be bullied” if you let someone bully you. someone made a smartass comment to me today and i told him to go **** himself. i mean, sure, i could have made myself a victim and brooded all day about how I was bullied. but because I didn’t give a **** it was just a random guy running his mouth.</p>
<p>I guess it’s not like that at my school. Everyone knows everyone, because it is quite small. The last time I told a kid in my class to f off on the facebook, because he wouldn’t stop cyber bullying me, I got the whole class, besides my own friends on my back (So that’s probably 95% of the kids in my class on my back). It’s a catholic school where telling someone f off in real life would get you a detention or a larger punishment than that.</p>
<p>what i said isn’t the point. it’s that i don’t allow myself to become a victim. not everyone you meet in life is going to like you or be nice to you. there will be a lot of jackasses. you can’t curl up in to a ball everytime you meet one.</p>
<p>But I don’t want to confront anyone.</p>
<p>^See that may be the problem, the more timid and shy you outwardly appear, the more likely you will be chosen as the easy target for bullying. The fact that you wish to not confront them simply allows them to push you around more.</p>
<p>Like ChoklitRain said, don’t allow yourself to be victimized, and don’t let it affect you. The sooner you learn to let go, the easier it will be for you. If you show any sort of reaction the more it will instigate them. And you’re going to have to learn to deal with *******s, they exist whether you like it or not.</p>
<p>Suggestion: Learn to adapt and ignore…and don’t complain on an internet forum(because it really doesn’t help your situation at all).</p>
<p>Everyone gets bullied to some degree.
Someone always thinks they’re better than you.
You have two options since you can’t transfer.</p>
<p>You can find out WHY they’re bullying you and change that.
OR
you can choose to ignore the bullying, because YOU KNOW that in the LONG RUN some nasty words won’t be WORTH ANYTHING.
So they think you’re weird/gay/ugly/whatever… So what?
You know that weird/ugly have a relative definition
you know your own sexual orientation, you don’t need someone to dictate it.</p>
<p>So either change or suck it up.
Plain and simple</p>
<p>Don’t listen to the heroic people telling you to stand up for yourself.
It won’t stop the bullying.
Don’t get me wrong. I think you SHOULD stand up for yourself, but if you think it’ll make the bullying go away… you’re mistaken.
One of three things will happen
<p>I’m all over the spectrum.</p>
<p>College is better, people who tend to be socially awkward (Not trying to say that you are but people who get bullied DO tend to be more socially awkward) tend to become less-socially awkward.
or if being socially awkward is not your problem, rest-assure that college social life makes miracles.
I’ve seen it happen like a billion times.</p>
<p>i dont know bullying really isnt a problem at our school, and we have 2.5k+ kids. don’t you have an uncle or someone in the mafia who could hit them for you?</p>
<p>just ignore the bullies. just imagine… in ten years youll be successful and living the good life, while those bullies will end up in jail or something</p>
<p>I’ve never been bullied in the sense that if someone started pushing around I could fight back</p>
<p>but I have been laughed at/teased (like everyone in the whole world), all you do is make sure they know that it doesn’t bother you, if your the nerd/geek then don’t say so many nerdy things (just because you know the answers to questions in class doesn’t mean you have to answer the question, I’ve had this problem), if you’re goofy, then try to be more calm/conserved and try not to laugh unless it actually is funny, if you’re fat don’t say its hereditary, just don’t even listen</p>
<p>^ I don’t know how good that advice is, but its just what I notice those types of people doing and then getting more crap</p>
<p>alright, if they are physically beating you up, take martial arts lessons. I’m serious (I do, nobody messes with me).
If it’s just ******ry, honestly who cares what they think? Those guys will be living in trailers when you’re off in college.</p>
<p>One technique I found interesting is to join as many honors/AP classes as you can. Because most bullies tend to be on the lower end of intelligence, you will avoid them at least some of the time.</p>
<p>The problem is that these kids are smart. They take honors courses. These bullies have parents that are doctors, lawyers, etc. My school sends 100% of all graduates to college every year. It’s not like thse kids will end up living in trailers and that I can laugh at them and such.</p>
<p>Hmm…well just realize that you are more mature than them.</p>
<p>Aside from the hold your head up and muddle through it advice here is another position. </p>
<p>Keep a record of all bullying incidents, hopefully they are not being physically abusive. If you are being physically attacked then call the police. Any phone calls, notes they drop in your locker, any tangible evidence keep. If it escalates you will have a paper trail, phone trail, etc. Are you being harrassed in class? After school? when? If it is afterschool then stick with other people, try not be alone around people like this. Check your school’s policy on harrassment, and go to the administrators if you can show clear evidence of the bullying. Go with your folks. If it is really out of control, I would hire an attorney to draft a letter to the school and to the parents of said bullies. Believe me, those rich parents are not going to want to risk having anything damaging on their darlings transcripts. You want to parents to get on their own kids cases. In some school districts kids can be expelled for harrassing and bullying fellow students. Learn what your schools’/archdioceses policy is…today.</p>
