I think I'm a victim of bullying. See, there's this guy in my class, and all he does is call me names. I'm not sure if he is bugging me because he likes me, or because he hates me. My friends say that I'm a wonderful, kind, smart, attractive girl, and I deserve nothing of what he did/say to me.
Okay, I wear a bit of black, but I don't go crazy about it. I was in Gym class, an I accidently scratched my wrist. In class, he's calling me emo. And I said nothing, actually, I looked at him like I was saying whatever.
In class today, I sit right infront of him. We were all copying something off the board, when he hits me on the head with his ruler and says "Move your f***ing head!" And I said you didn't need to hit me! And I heared him say I was "Hard headed"
Personally, I think I'm doing a good job ignoring him, but it's making me sound bad to people who listen. Is there any way I could tell him to stop, and "Not to mess with me" thing. Thanks!

You are right about being bullied. You need to go and talk to someone you trust at the school who wields some power and have this behaviour stopped. If it makes you feel any better this boy probably has been mistreated during his life and this is the only way that he knows to behave for attention. Having said this you do NOT allow him or anyone else to victimize you or anyone else. By staying silent you are as guilty as the bully. Put a stop to this right now and speak up.

Ignoring him is not the best method. I was never bullied but I've seen kids who were. Whenever I see some kid being a victim of bullying or harassment, I go up to them and help them. I think that the best thing to do is make friends with kids who are in a position to defend you. This may sound selfish or whatever, but the bully won't bother you if he knows that it's gonna come back to haunt him. If you think that he likes you then play it out and act like you like him too. If he does then he'll probably feel shy and embarrassed, if he hates you then he might back off thinking that you like him now.

you are doing the right thing in ignoring him. he is doing all this probably because of problems he has not that you have. probably doesn't have much confidence in himself. when you go into class before anything starts say hello borrow a pencil etc. to show him you are a nice person hopefully this will break the ice .always be nice don't talk about him to your friends word gets around fast .tell friends he's ok he'll hear you said nice things about him and will probably start leaving you alone

he is a attention seeker! and you responding now and again is enough to keep him trying to distract you from class,in his silly mind he thinks that by harrasing you ,you will become stupid like him.keeping a stiff upper lip in the hope he will vanish soon is comendable but you are putting up with a very stressfull time ,let it be known in public the next time he assaults you ,that you simply will not put up with his unwanted bratish behavior and you will not hesitate in seeking help to get him stopped if he continues.keep a serious aura about your body language and voice and eye contact,and dont be swayed by him trying to laugh it off,keep in control of the situation and remain like that until he walks away.if people ask whats happening tell them he was someone who thought i was too soft to challenge his horrible attitude towards me,he has found out different now.

You should give him a warning like, " If you don't quit your ****, I'm gonna get you kicked out of schol." Then when he strikes again, go to you dean if you have one or your principle and asked for him to be expelled for sexual harassment or just harassment. It would be cool if you got him on tape saying this stuff and then show it to you principle. Then he would be gone the next day. good luck

Hit him before he hits you, or just ignore him and don't rise to his bait or try to give as good as you get,
He will soon get fed up with you and move on to some other victim

Honestly it sounds like hes just being a a$$ to me, I would go to a teacher or the Principal on this one, cause if you say anything , I have the feeling hes just going to react by being a bigger a$$..

Just ignore him -- unless he hits you. If the bullying turns physical, then give him a good punch to put him in his place.
