Have you ever bullied someone or have you been bullied yourself?

Question

If so, are you now sorry that you made somebody else's life hell?

Answer 1

I'm ashamed to admit i did bully someone at school,ten years later i bumped into her while out shopping we went for a coffee and she's now my best friend i trust her more than any other friend and i'm godmother to her youngest child.I still feel guilty about the bullying and will never feel i've made it up to her.

Answer 2

I have been bullied before. Im 15 and i still get bullied. It happens. It's society. I have been bullied all my life and basically can't do much about it. I don't want to cause anyone pain but i just want to make others happy that's why i don't do it. Bullying is so painful and sadly enough many people do that (see Celebrity Big Brother UK for more information). It will always bothers me.. I have done some stuff to people before and i don't feel proud of it. I have tried to fit in with others and now im just being my own individual person. Bullying is wrong and others should know that! It's a shame that people bully someone because of the way they act and of the way they look like. Bullies to me are cowards that need some extra help at home. You would mostly hear them say, i got difficulties at home that's why i did it. Well i have difficulties too and you don't see me taking it out on someone. Excellent question and you are getting a star.

Have a nice day..!

Answer 3

I don't believe that I've ever purposely bullied someone, but then there is always that element of the unknown.

I was bullied for 6 months at work about 5 years ago. Ironically, I was working for the government body responsible for Health and Safety and bullying was their platform that year. I guess I fell under the radar. It eventually stopped when I stepped up, man that was HARD!

Answer 4

Yes I have.
I lay such a guilt trip on myself every time I think about it I feel sick.
I guess it was to go with the flow, like peer pressure or something.
I think that some of those that dish it out have low self esteem (at least I did).
I have seen some of the ones that I bullied and have talked to them but that subject never came up.
They must have very broad shoulders and I envy them.
I can only hope that they can FORGIVE me for my comments.
I do forgive the ones that did it to me.
Not that it makes any difference but the bulling that I did was verbal, not physical.
I have had my share of being bullied both verbal and physical.

Answer 5

I was bullied at junior school,then the wormed turned.I battered 1 bully then his brother and 1 by 1 every one else who had a part in it.They kept right out of my face from then on.

Answer 6

In my opinion, I think everyone has been bullied sometime in their lives and have bullied others (intentionally or not).

Its a power thing. Power politics. People with strong personalities misuse their power on weak people. Those that are weak, hide behind a facade and pretend they are strong when theyre not..etc

Its human nature really - but we as humans have the power to control ourselves.

Answer 7

Good question, no I have never once bullied anyone, I hate bullies and what they stand for, they are sniffling little wimps who hate been ignored and crumble when turned on, I was bullied at school for a while but this worm turned and stood up for herself, the bully was no longer as tuff as she appeared and my reward was seeing her crumble.

Answer 8

I was bullied by a female Sasquatch as a child. Until I finally stood up for myself. She went to the hospital I got a backbone.

Answer 9

No I never bullied anyone but I was always the victim of bullies.

Answer 10

I was never a bully,but I could defend myself so nobody ever tried bullying me either...
