There are many reasons why people bully. Often because they are very insecure in themselves. Sometimes they are angry or upset or feel that they don't fit in. It may be a way of showing off to peers and looking tough and important and in charge. People who bully others in one setting may be getting bullied themselves in some other setting, such as at home or school. Bullies may be scared of getting picked on so they make sure to do it first. If they don't like themselves they may take it out on someone else. Sometimes they think it will make them more popular. Sometimes they do it to get attention. Others might be jealous of the person they are bullying. They may just want to make others afraid of them. It sometimes makes them feel braver or more important or better about themselves.

People bully because they themselves are bully by other people,
so they tend to do this to show they have the dare to do things that other people don't dare to do.
Basically,these people feel insecure and they want to take revenge on other people.

Usually they are somewhat pathetic people. They lash out at others trying to please themselves or show that they do have some power. Many times they have been bullied in their own lives.

Bullies crave for attention.Usually they don't get love and care from their love ones.That's why they behave that way.

Because they can get away with it! Have you ever noticed that bullies hardly ever pick on someone bigger, stronger, meaner, etc? That's because they don't want their own @ss kicked!

Because they can. Some individuals find nothing going on in their lives, so they want to mess up someone else!
