Poll: Were you/Are you bullied in school?

[BlumiereBleck]

Was 3 years non stop

 

[Kortney]

Never bullied at school, bullied in life though because of being in a foreign country.

I was bullied before in School. Then I got pissed one day and decided to hit the prick, the rest was history really. Not been bullied since, if only I'd done it sooner... Went through primary school getting bullied, went through the first 2 years of secondary school being bullied, wasn't until year 9 that I finally got the sense to fight back.

 

[Nouw]

I was both the bullied and the bully. Luckily now my friend is the strongest guy in the school. Unfortunately he is a dick...

 

[neoontime]

No, maybe called shy very much but it's mostly it.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

I was bullied because my little brother was who he was, and it was a pastime to hit me with balls, snowballs, rocks... whatever people could find. Bro started it all, so the school didn't interfere. Then I hit some jackwagon with my flute case. They never bothered me after that.

When I was in Junior High.
I was always the chubby girl and these guys in my classes thought it would be funny to tease me. I didn't care. I ignored them. Thankfully my mom, sister, and I moved to be with my mom's boyfriend so I have never seen them again.

I didn't really get teased in highschool so no worries. I was the quiet one so nobody really messed with me.

Just a few snide comments. I gave them some right back. Nothing major though.

 

[Serenegoose]

Yeah, quite badly at one point, I had to change schools - then later, it was really bad because I was bullied by kids at OTHER schools because I had to share the bus with them to go home.

At various times I had...

Rubbish tipped over me
Several people scrawling over my face with pens
people trying to forcibly pierce me
Others taped my mouth and stamped on my ankles
Most settled for vanilla assault en masse.


I really, truly, wish I was kidding.

 

[Free Thinker]

I was bullied grade 1 up until 8th. It's a miracle I didn't suffer too much emotional and psychological damage.

 

[Tomster595]

Ugh, I hated middle school...

 

[mattttherman3]

I was on both ends, but eventually I stopped, and found my friends liked me better and invited me to parties after I stopped hitting them.

 

[Enzeru92]

Nope I kinda did my share of bully at the time i didn't know I was just making careless jokes and the only time i was sort of bullied in middle school during history class he was sitting a desk behind me on the row next to me and he was making stupid noises and shaking my desk. I was already annoyed that day so I instinctively jumped over my desk and socked him twice in the face. Needless to say I don't get bullied

 

[Dags90]

Not really. Despite being extremely skinny, on the shorter side (before high school, anyway), and nonathletic I wasn't ever really picked on. There were a few kids who were picked on mercilessly*. We actually got a talking to when we were about 9 or 11 because someone in our grade was feigning illness in order to dodge school. He transferred after grade school.

*It wasn't that there were any nasty bullies in particular, but there were a few kids who were more or less social pariahs. I think one of them committed suicide in highschool.

 

[TheLaofKazi]

Yeah. I was the weird kid who had a lot of energy. I would do really absurd things, talk in funny voices, act really strange, do assignments the wrong way, disrupt class, I was a really open person, but my interests and personality weren't accepted by the other kids, so I was heavily stigmatized, even teachers played a role. In fact, the teachers were probably just as bad as the students. I remember I used to love drawing comic books and cartoons in class, and teachers would often take them from me and throw them away, for example. All that made want to isolate myself, it made me angry and depressed, and so I would lashed out at people that gave me problems, which made the bullying worse. I later became really quiet and socially nervous out of fear of what I would do or say would result in people hating me. I didn't really get out of the shell of fear until about like my Junior year in High School, pretty much everybody matured a lot then.

 

[natster43]

Yeah I was bullied back in grades 5-8. Then it stopped when I got to High School.

 

[Zing]

Very small amount, I was pretty weird in high school and I started maturing pretty late which didn't help. But I'm actually glad for it, I developed a thicker skin(I already had one to begin with so it never affected me that much).

 

[Death God]

More or less, yes. Some weirdo was watching me pee one day and I can't pee when someone watches me so he want around making fun of me because of it. Then everyone in his class started to do the same. Eventually they stopped but it really ticked me off.
