Do you used to get bullied?

[Annie999]

Yes, I got bullied when I was 13-14. I was very depressed by that time, had a low self esteem and would let the guy that sat behind me to taunt me. I never paid much attention to it back then, but now I realize it was bulling.

I was bullied by some kid during primary school, until one day I had enough and fought back. Never again. A couple of years ago I learned he had a brother with paralysis or something like that. All bullies got some trauma.

I think kids/people should fight back when they are bullied. Ignoring it, turning the other cheek, hoping they'll just stop doesn't work.

I used to see the boys in my elementary school gang up and beat up every new boy. Except for one new boy that I think I already posted about.

Yes i was bullied a couple of times and usually fought back which helped in some cases but in others the bully
presented himself as the victim after and me as the villain which brought me some trouble with the profs.

Gaslighting is a very typical behaviour for bullies.

My advice with bullying is either bully back or if you cannot because the bullies are to strong or have to many friends ignore it as if it never happened.

Also refrain from becoming a bully yourself because of being bullied what i mean bully the people who bully you but not other innocent people if you don't become yourself a bully despite being bullied you already won a spiritual victory over bullying.

TBH, I don't find it true that bullies end up as broken wrecks. It's just something people like to think to get over the PTSD that may have been inflicted on them from the bullying. The two guys who bullied me in gymnasium (senior high) now have families. One of them has his own business and the other has some manager position job.

in fact people with sadistic tendencies do go for occupation where they can live it out.

[PlattitüdenPaule]

Not proud of it, but I was actually the school bully back then.

Males that show dominance in the most primitive way as teens or kids are not sadistic and I would not attach any mental conditions to teens and kids.

I think bullying is in our DNA and normal group behavior when you force a certain set of people into a group, in adult life you are much more free to leave a envirorment where you dont feel comfortable, in school you got no choice on the other hand.

Some bullies are scum but often the people that get bullied are so off the norm or cunts themselves, that they ask for it.

Life is hard and unfair, bullying teaches you the lesson.

Bullying is also something institutions like the military practices systematically to ensure collectivisim and group hygiene, so it cant be too bad.

I got bullied in Kindergarten and learned a lesson from it early on that made me avoid getting bullied later on.

my observation too

they are often leaders and practiced manipulation and control over a group or individuals early on.

On the other hand, very big players like silicon valley CEOs seem like people that got bullied while being sociopaths themselves and only ended up being bullies as adults where wealth outweighs athleticism or other tributes that were important to be popular in high school.

I was bullied and was a bully too .
