Truth, Tragedy, and Combinations Thereof discussion

Another thing most people have had to deal with is a bully, relentless or not. Mine, I'll admit, still terrifies me & I have to pass the bitch in the hallway every day at school. I think, once again, that vocalizing pain and anger makes healing easier and faster. But if you're going to post a mock letter to them or something, please star out all but like the first & last letters of their name & don't use any last names. Because we ARE more mature than that...I think.

I'm stuck in perhaps the worst bully setting in history: middle school. I really am a nice person, why do people have to torture me every single day of my life? I don't want to talk to a school counselor, because she scares me and looks like a vulture. Besides, I don't even know her! The bully, she threatens to kill me, to my face and behind my back. She's a grade above me, and so she can spread things throughout the whole school. While she's no physical match for me, (I'm in 7th grade, 5"7, and the best defender on my all star soccer team ), she does worse than beating me up. It's gotten to the point that I don't want to go to school. She sneaks into my hallway under enemy lines and torments me by my locker. If I could say anything to her that she would listen, saying " Stop or I'll drop kick you into Tuesday" would work. But so would just, "Stop."

I think you should probably tell your school counselor. You could just threaten her, though.

I had to endure something similar to this, except my tormentor was a grade below me. It was also a 'he.' He would push me to the ground a lot, slam me into walls, spit on me, and tell me (on a daily basis) either, "suck my dick you stupid bitch" or "go kill yourself, you frikkin emo." But he never actually threatened to kill me himself. What I would do is turn around one of these days and say, "just shut up! Nobody cares. We've heard all this before, and you're crazy if you think I'm going to allow you to wreck my whole world. You're also crazy if you think anyone believes you." Now, you might be able to win in a fair fight but I'd be failing if I didn't tell you that if they're psycho enough they'll bring a weapon. Just a thought. And another thing: don't let them keep you out of school. That's your ticket to a good life, and that's something they shouldn't be able to take away. If you believe them to be totally serious about hurting you, and yelling (or better yet, something calm & collected to make them look even worse) doesn't get them to back off, don't be ashamed or nervous about handing their ass over to either the principal or, if you feel it would be more.effective, the cops. And it always does seem to be the nice ones that get messed with. Probably just cuz they're jealous.

Thanks. That's all I can say. Thanks for the advice, it will take a while but I'll push on through :)

:) I wish I'd had that attitude when I was in middle school it would've probably made me a bit more confident & happy now, but better late than never.

Savana, I think that you should tell the person who's bullying you to shut the fuck up because she's a bitch and she doesn't have any right to bully you, because you're probably tired of it, and if she's going to bully you, she can go fuck herself. That's my advice. It might be a bit extreme, but Im in 8th grade.

Woooooo!!!! Go Zoe!!! XD that's the spirit.

Thanks. Sometimes it feels good to curse people out.

He's back. I don't know why he all of a sudden chose to slam back into my life full force, but he has. I hate saying his name so much, I just call him SSS (Spawn of Super Satan) he's stalking me & something's gonna happen but I don't know what yet. Something violent, I'm sure, cuz that's just how he rolls. I have friends to help me this time, at least. My almost-man is so pissed about the whole thing this kid put me through...I know he'll protect me. Kid's a lot bigger than he used to be, but my Guy's over 6 ft tall, weighs more than 240 pounds...it's delicious.I seriously hope tomorrow goes without incident from SSS.

Well, it's good that you have friends to back you up now. I suggest that you tell the principal, or guidance counselor, or someone like that.

Well, I would, but none of the "authority figures" in my school ever do anything so it'd just end up worse. My Guy told me, before I ever trusted him with who it was that almost convinced me to kill myself, "I don't know who the hell this kid is, but he likes you." I'm like, "so now we show affection by beating the shit out of the person we care about, all the while ordering them to a:suck (the guys) dick, b:go cut themselves, c: go die??? Riiiiight...." "I'm serious." "Uh-huh." Then, today, I walk into school, already watching for him cuz he pushed me down the stairs once, and sure enough he's lurking. The only kind of look I ever really get from him is murderous, but today he was just grinning for all he's worth & he didn't really look cold & angry...more like, for lack of a better phrase, a love-struck moron. This continued throughout the day. I don't know quite what to make of that. And my guy was being a royal douchebag today...I know he's an asshole towards most people, but never really to me. No wonder they're always pissed at him.

I know he's an asshole towards most people, but never really to me. No wonder they're always pissed at him.

haha lol. Anyway, so you think the guy likes you?

I think his dad beats his mom, so that could be it. Too bad he almost killed me inadvertently. I might have returned interest then...if it weren't for the swirls.of bitterness and rage swimming in his eyes, he'd actually be pretty hot. and I hate the idea that he's suffering alone, no matter who he is.

Wow.......

There's this girl at my school who's mean to me. Her name's T**, and she stalks me and screams in my ear and punches me sometimes. She has some interest in me because I'm an identical twin. I didn't think it was a big deal, so I didn't tell anyone. But today, after school, I was trying to catch up with my friend V****n, and T** was there. She started screeching in my ear. I told her to go fuck herself and to fuck off, but she didn't listen. V****n stuck up for me and told T** to go away. V****n's pretty tough, so finally we escaped. V*****n told me that I didn't ever stick up for myself and she wouldn't always be there for me when T**, and just people in general, bullied me. So she told me I should go tell my homeroom teacher about it. Do you think I should, because I don't want to have to make her always stick up for me and take care of me all the time. She shouldn't have to do that. So do you think I should tell my homeroom teacher?

If you trust the teacher to have a stop put to this bitch's shit, then yes. But whatever you do, don't let it go on forever. My tormentor is still haunting me, after like 3-4 years. Nobody deserves to live in fear, to be treated badly or anything else like that. Do whatever it takes: tell teachers, friends, cops, take martial arts lessons, carry pepper spray (don't think they banned that from schools yet...) and if you do tell your teacher & for some reason she doesn't back off, make a scene the next time she goes after you. Scream, wave your arms, rant, throw an epic tantrum. How long has she (I'm assuming here that it's a chick) been after you?

She's been annoying me since the beginning of the school year. She bothers everyone in my class, though. She just bothers me the most. I don't think she'll back off if I tell a teacher.

Gang up on her. Get everyone she's given shit to to take a stand all at once. Make her realize that she doesn't have the right to bully anyone. Make it such a big deal that nobody can ignore it. Have the biggest crowd possible.

all i can say firstly zoe, nobody has the right to torment, tease and make your life hell, tell whoever you have to tell about what's going on with these dick heads, giving you a hard time, xXscreaming_dreaming, has some brilliant points! make the biggest scene you can in front of the most people you can possibly do it in front of the bigger the audience the better the out come.......stay strong girl x

Thanks. That's really helpful, but I don't really know if that'll help.

The things you learn about somebody after you trust them...my man, my gummy bear, my sunshine....
he picked her over me. Because I refused to share with this bitch who's constantly all up on him, especially in front of me. Pfft. Oh well, kid. Sorry I ever fukkin trusted you. Got a new guy now, though, and they hate each other. >=] my old guy thinks the new one is a douche & I'm just like, "well, he hates you too for being a cheating prick & breaking my heart." & you'll never guess who my love is... it shocked a lot of people. & I'm aware it's probably gonna seem dumb to everyone else. Oh well
Too bad.

& he actually appreciates me...nice feeling.
