I had a realization early on that my bullies deserved pity more than hatred. I had two in school. One physical and the other verbal. One day i zoned out in the bus and missed my stop and when my verbal bully got off his mom was outside. The poor lady must have weighed 500 lbs and she had fallen in the yard and couldn’t get herself up. The bully kid saw me watch him help her up and had horror on his face. I never mentioned it to anyone. That’s the difference between him and me.
The physical bully had an abusive family. And i found out that weird sex stuff was happening in that situation.
I’m just saying i overcame it by garnering pity for the abusers and it really did help me.
I have been bullied by both women and men.
One of my first memories from school involves being pushed by a girl and slipping on wet floor.
I was bullied by a boy in community college. Later on he said that he repented and would like to be my friend. I gave him another chance, and it was a prank by him. Calling me names, insults, everything continued like earlier.
If someone bullied me after that, I had made up my mind that they won't really repent it. I have not been wrong so far.
You met people who bullied you but still they had some conscience. Most bullies are not like that. I was recently bullied by a couple at a shopping mall. They took my cart from me, and pushed it away.
@the swede My dad is not an introvert. But he is also not an "in your face" person. He has endured things similar to you in the past. The only difference is, people pretend to care if a woman is being abused because it's expected from society. Men have it worse.
My dad and brother have always been very supportive, inspite of some disagreements.
