It's hard to pick just.. one bully from my lifetime. Being short, fat, poor and a semi-outsider made it easy for many bullies to poke their fun at me. I can never focus a single name.. or act. After a while all bullies are alike. It doesn't matter their method.. be it swirlies in the bathroom.. stealing lunch money.. starting rumors.. fights on the playground. It all boils down to them screaming "I'm better then you and I want recognition for that"
Bullies are just damaged people that come from violent home lives. they have no control at home.. so they take it at school, usually on younger or smaller classmates. As a victim of bullying, I can admit I still bear the scars well into my adult life. I've learned how to take insults and personal attacks with a touch of humor and letting it roll off my back. I just regret now that I didn't learn these skills as a little crying girl on the playground. I think my school days would of been much more pleasant had i possessed much thicker skin back then.
Peace Out
