Were you ever bullied, or were you the bully?

The worst I've gotten in school was teasing and name-calling. I don't think I've ever been physically harassed, other than being pushed once or twice.

I was bullied a bit at school. The one guy I sorted out when I lost my temper eventually and taught him a lesson. Another guy I tolerated and a third guy I got to leave me alone by telling him that my older brother would sort him out. All I really wanted was to be left alone. I never harassed anyone.

In hindsight all of these bullies had domestic problems that bugged them and they were actually doing what they did out of jealousy. Strictly speaking I should feel sorry for them.

Yes, I was bullied all through school, because I was shy and timid.

I was a little bit of a bully in school, mostly just teasing and the like. Not much luckily, but looking back I do wish I hadn't done it. One of those things that seems like a good idea to a teenage brain, but really it isn't.

Yeah, when you're a teenager sometimes things seem like good ideas. After I'd been teased quite a bit I would take out my anger on a few younger students but I never did anything to drastic.

I used to play pranks on a little girl whom I considered a spoiled brat when I was in the fifth grade. When I was like 12-13 there was a girl who'd threaten me but it didn't last long cuz I could stand up for myself, so not really

I was bullied, though other kids certainly had it worse. Most of the time I was just ignored.

@MrMarcus: Wow yeah that sucks :/ When I was in elementary school, maybe 3rd or 4th grade, I'd make this one younger boy's life a living hell by constantly teasing and poking and hitting him on the bus and during recess. I never even knew why I did that.

@TheDarkestZero: yea, that's how I feel :( I just tell to myself I didn't know about the consequences of my acts...

@MrMarcus: Same here. Even back then I got bullied a lot, so I guess I tricked myself into thinking people could just bully people if they want, and I wanted to seem cool so I just did it.

Yes I was bullied in school. Physically and verbally
I think I was bullied in 5th grade but I was too aloof to realise it.
