I Compounding this was my mind: I grew up in an area that is incredibly poor and full to the brim of illegal immigrants; as a result of this, education--wanting one, getting one, being smart, etc--was largely spat upon. Kids like me (the "smart" ones) were bullied constantly. Further compounding both of these issues was that when I was even younger, I had agreed to skip a grade.

Wow, I this is really weird for me cause its almost the exact opposite at my school. Maybe its just cause our school in general is pretty good academically (consistently in the top 150 in Newsweek's Best Highschools list) and our grade especially (including me theres about 15 people who skipped a grade in math) but the "smart" kids are usually regarded pretty highly. While a good amount of them are often teased, its always in good-nature and most often than not self-deprecating. The upperclassmen treat us really well too. Seniors and juniors in our school usually bond pretty well and often hang out together. I remember when I was a Junior last year my favorite class, in terms of people, was my AP Calculus class, which is supposed to be a Senior year class.

Personally I've never really been bullied. I mean my friends and I tease each other constantly and to an outsider it may look like bullying (we tend to use quite alot of profanity 😀 ) but we find it hilarious.

Fights are a different story. I've gotten into a few, usually over the stupidest reasons, but I almost always make up with the other guy afterwards. Lol I remember I got into a fight with someone in ninth grade and the next time I saw him (like 10 mins later) we simultaneously hugged each other and we both said "Sorry I was a dumb shit man" 😀 That's probably one of the greatest reasons why I'm glad that I'm a guy. Whenever guys have problems with each other in our school, they just get in a fight and then either make up or ignore each other afterward. The girls are just plain vicious... they keep grudges for months and use psychological bullying that's a whole lot more damaging to a person then a punch in the stomach.

Total truth on all that. My older sister (she's a grade ahead of me, and in college now) had so much trouble with her "friends" all throughout high school. She was always backstabbing her friends, they were backstabbing her, mutual renunciations of relationships, etcetera. Never physical, but my lord was there much trouble to be had among them. At least with guys, we know who our friends are. I mean, we get angry at one another, but us guys...we let the other guy know, and often seek to resolve the issues (even if we do use violence to do so sometimes, it's better than letting things stew. After all, the stereotypes on fighting often building friendship are...often true). Must be a scrote thing.

I am the God of Freedom. I am not revered, I have no shrines; and you have never before heard of me nor will you ever hear of me again.

Never really bullied that much. I had trouble here and there, but it wasn't to bad. Worst time was a year ago at work. I work at Wal-mart and lets just some people are idiots.(No i don't live in the south lol) My mother was in the hospital at the time and before that the "mother jokes" didn't bother me. But when its a bad time to say it, lets jsut say throwing a broom across a aisle isn't the best solution but it still works ^_^. Another time would be around 6-7 grade. Got into a fight with some local kid. I got the most damage but i still did a lot of damage to him. The kid and I were friends but the fight seperated my real friends and the douche bags. The people who I thought were my friends turned on me and starting to call me names blah blah. I never really listened to it, all I did was smile and say "is that all you can do"?

Yeah, that's happened to most of the girls I know in my school. It's the reason why most of the groups of friends who are mostly consisted of guys tend to stay together from 9-12th grade in our school while the groups who are mostly consisted of girls usually break apart after a year. When the group is split pretty evenly, the same thing happens too. Guys usually stay together while the girls tend to wander in and out.

I have a strong feeling that bullying mostly just has to do with where you went to school... Because I've never really been bullied to that extent before...

Elementary school was probably the worst for me, and that's not really saying much. I basically was just teased, and there was a bit of name-calling here and there, but that was it. ._.; It was probably because I was somewhat normal in elementary school, so there wasn't a reason for me to be singled out.

As for middle and high school... The worst has been teasing, really, and that itself is pretty rare. I have a feeling it's because I'm quiet enough to stay out of other people's business but not so much a loner that I don't have friends. I hate conflict, so I'm not likely at all to insult anyone or delve into all the drama. And while I'm pretty much known for being a geek (marching band + manga DEFINITELY = GEEK), I still have a good number of friends who aren't, so I guess it covers my bases by not angering any certain "clique." The fact that there are quite a few kids (many/most of whom are considered popular) who take AP classes also keeps smart kids from being singled out.

Really, though, none of my schools have had much violence in them. (A school in my county is known for being a scene of violence, but I don't go there...) The only fights I know of have normally been between friends or at least people of about the same social standing, and I've never seen them gang up on a single person. The worst bullying I've witnessed is pretty much just verbal and maybe situational (ignoring them/talking behind their back).

So, yeah... I'm pretty lucky to be in this particular school system. (And yes, I did just waste all that space with a response that stated that I've never really been bullied all that much. ><; )

The worst ones I've seen are in fraternities/sororities. >_> Hazing is so stupid.

There's one frat in my old university that held an anual "Oblation Run", the new guys basically had to run through the campus naked, except for their faces. The worst part is that it's sort of made into an event and people line up to see them, sometimes people from the news are there too.

I switched schools just a couple months before that (>.<) darn it! j/k j/k

Worst bullying case I've ever heard was what one of my roomie's buddy did..And that he constantly singled this one kid out (though he was a pretty big jerk to just bout everyone 'cept my roomie and a few others)...
Anyways, while they were in the locker room after practice, they were all gettin dressed from the showers,

he took a screw driver to the boy who was bent over (completely unaware) and shoved the handle part "where the sun don't shine." 😲 And another time, he shoved him naked into the girls locker room.. where he got clobbered by the girls and hide his clothes across the street so the poor boy had to streak through the school and across the parking lot. So mean.

If it weren't for the gutter, my mind would be homeless.

never tried being bullied 🙂

but im the one who bullies em mwahahah (for fun though i dont hurt people) if i hurt them i would appologize 😃

worrying is just wasting time

There were no major bullying incidents for me.

Elementary school... every one was friends with each other except for the one or two exceptions. If there really was anyone trying to hurt me, I could outrun them because I specialized in sprints.

Middle school was very weird. Everyone knew me and thought I was some kind of super-human. I'm not sure how they came up with that, but it meant no bullying for me either.

There was a boy in my class who was somewhat bullied. He was the unpopular type with a short temper, so people liked making him angry because of how easy it was. But, I don't think anyone hurt him physically, although he did try to stab someone and punch someone else at times.

High school was a period where I joined everything. Therefore, I was on good terms with everyone, whether they be the same age as me, older or younger. There was one incident where three big black guys tried to rob me, having chosen several targets that were Asian. Well, they couldn't get anything from me and were sent to jail. Damn racists...

No bullying in University, just war with arts and science students versus the engineering students.

In my High School bullying always turns into Street Fights then Gang fights 🤢

more like just my batch year...we were known as the worst batch in that schools history 🤣

Gosh, bullying was horrible for me in first grade to fourth, when I finally was sick of it and changed schools. (this story may sound a bit childish because it happened way back then)

I had just moved to Arizona, and when I started my new elementary school, my first grade teacher set me up with 'recess buddies' so I could make friends. My english sucked horribly, I had a goofy bob-ish haircut, and I was a fatty. I didnt wanna hang out with my assigned buddies ( lol ) and hung out with two other girls instead. Now, the girls I was supposed to hang out with are now 'popular'. I think I was a dumb kid.
Anyways, the two girls i started to hang out with were total bitches! pmsing before there time. I was really upset but I wanted them as my friends, so I beared with it, but in second grade I said to myself, "screw it they arent worthy" and went back to my cute little manga drawings. A girl named Mckenna said she liked my drawings and I taught her how. That's how we became friends.

Mckenna just so happened to be friends with those girls, Alexis and Brianna, who were so freakin' mean to me. A&B didnt want Mckenna to be friends with me, damn it! They were telling lies like, "look at her hair cut, her room is so dirty, shes too nice i think its so fake," and all this meaaan stuff. So Mckenna sort of ignored them, thank god, and our friendship went on.

Then in third grade, for some unknown reason, she wanted to 'make a friendship' with a new girl. I dont really get it, lol. So manipulative, children are. I made friends with a small korean girl named Jung. A month or two later, Mckenna came to us while we were drawing little comics of "shadow" A fire demon person who was supposed to be Hiei from yu yu hakusho's girlfriend. lol. She sat next to us and started talking, and i was rly upset so i said it was a gay idea, and Jung and her became friends. I really loved life for the rest of the school year and we had tons of sleepovers and stuff.
Suddenly, in fourth grade, Mckenna had to move to some far away neighborhood in Phoenix. And then Jung moved to Korea like two weeks later! School was such a bitch having to deal with Alexis and Briana and Steven, some weird kid who enjoyed picking on me and smelled like pee.

i went to a small charter school where I met my now-best friend forever, Sam. So grateful. But It seems I'm becoming a bully myself, always raggingon a certain kid at my school.

ah bullying... reversing thousands of years of natural selection and evolution.

@jinx: wow, thats different cause it means nobody helped him when anyone couldve. that sucks.

sounds like fun. Total crazy fun.

The closest I really got to bullying was being overly sensitive in middle school. By eighth grade I was fine, and realized everyone wasn't serious.

This signature was recovered from Hades to serve in my rotting armies.

well, i was kinda bullied in primary school, maybe becouse i was weak looking and pasive, but it wasn´t really being bullied. I guess i was lucky becouse i always had older brothers and sisters going to the same school and in higher grades than me, and they were known, so i wasn´t a target. I knew a guy that has to go home running becouse there were always people wanting to hit him, he was kinda annoying but dounno why they were after him (he got quite speedy in running).
In high school i was kind of respected becouse i got good grades and my brothers and sisters were known (that is an adventage of having so many older siblings). Didn´t have friends though, only classmates i chatted from time to time.
