I was a bully [I Was Bullied]

I was a bully at school and bullied one person for a couple of years. Apparently I made his life a nightmare he told a girl I was dating (they were both in the year below me.) I came home from university at Christmas last year and saw him, he’d started going to the gym, he literally picked me up and threw me in a huge pile of mud. All his friends cheered and clapped as I got up, covered. I can’t stand them. I cried for days afterwards, I was so upset. Do you think he was right?

What goes around comes around. You reap what you sow. Turn about is fair play. You get what you earn.

Pick a cliche.

Judging from the comments below, you haven't got the idea yet.

Another cliche: "Don't dish it out if you can't take it."

@Strongtea If the topic comes up, you say, "I deserved it. I was lucky it was just mud." (which you did and you were).

@Strongtea Aw, it really affected you? Have you ever thought about how your [i]years [/i]of bullying affected him? No, of course not... cause you think it was "only verbally" as if that makes it better. But that can seriously effect people for years, or even the rest of their lives, it obviously had a big impact on your victim due to what he did to you.
He finally gets payback for what you [i]chose [/i]to put him through for several years and you just cry about it and play the victim, coming here to, in your own words, find "someone to agree with me and see my side". So you're not even thinking about the fact that this is a consequence of your actions and you just want everyone to actually feel sorry for you...

Yes but for a long time, people didn’t want to hang out with me because of the association. Like it felt like I was a total social outcast for a while. It’s still horrid to think of now. I just really wish he hadn’t done it to me, like if there was another way he could have dealt with it. People treat him like some kind of local legend and me as if I’m some kind of joke. 😭@Redstar
