Grown up people who bullies others are scum

I have been one of them, and I have been bullied myself in first grade. I had to kick, bite and beat myself through the first two years of school.

Later I bullied a schoolmate and still feel bad about it. I can’t remember his name, only his sad face.

I can understand a child who bullies others, but when mature people act as bullies, it must be a lack of intelligence or empathy. Immature people. Scum of the earth.

I got bullied in high school as well.

I was a school bully form aged 11-13. I regret it now. Simon started school same time as me but when his parents took him out at 13 because of me he had a severe stammer.

Are you talking about this site?

I was bullied and I didn’t bully.

However, I was able to stop 2 bullies during that time, so I’m happy about that. :grin:

I was bullied as a child and unfortunately I did some bullying myself, early on.

I was bullied as an adult as well.

I don’t understand the point of adult bullies.

Like, are they that unhappy with themselves that they wanna make others around them miserable as well?

Been dealing with biitches at work-- they are literally proud to call themselves biitches-- and it is really difficult.

…I will never understand this mentality.

My brother has the tendency to bully others including me from time to time.
I’ve learned how to put him in his place.

His girlfriend knows how to handle him also.

I don’t think I intentionally meant to bully anyone in high school but I did lack impulse control at times lol.
I dipped some kids locker locks in chocolate pudding lol. How can you not do that? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
And once I threw my sandwich at someone for no reason. Oopsies.
I have numerous scenarios where I lacked impulse control and did reckless things since I was young

They are probably jealous about how attractive you are.

This one adult guy who was a drinking buddy of my dad’s used to bully me when I was a kid.

Well, fast forward to when I became an adult and was working at the liquor store he and another guy came in and started making a sport of me. At that very moment I had had enough of people’s sh!t. I looked him straight in the eye and said I’d kill him and his family if he ever ■■■■■■ with me again.

Never saw him again and that was almost 20 years ago. I admit I could have gotten in trouble with the law for what I said but sometimes you need to burn the human garbage.

:innocent:

I was bullied. One time, I bullied a boy who was different. Afterwards I admitted to him he was the only person in school I could bully because I was tougher than him and wanted to feel tough. I’ve spent my life regretting what I did that day. I wanted to feel powerful, but instead I just felt awful. And I still feel awful

Thanks for the kind words @Jake :+1:

Not sure what it is, to be honest.

But maybe they’re just unhappy about something…

Either way, it’s not a good feeling to be on the receiving end of things.

I currently live with my 86 year old father. He bullied and beat my sister and I when we were kids and continues to bully me emotionally even now. You would think that at 86 he would have mellowed but not so.

I can’t wait to get out of here and away from him.

Me neither. I worked once in a big catering business, where i was told my male colleagues not to argue with the woman working there. “They have got knifes in their sleeves,” they said, meaning that they could turn every one against you if they wanted too.

I thought it was an exaggeration, but a few weeks later a new woman were hired, she was a bit clumsy, and had not the best appearance, and worst of all - she had an academic background. It was not tolerated in this blue collar environment, and she was bullied until she had a breakdown and was fired by the boss only to maintain the social order.

Im not saying that women are worse bullies than men. When i was in college it was primarily men who was bullying.

Geez, that’s a rough one @bluebutterfly.

Honestly it sounds all too familiar.

I don’t understand the concept of “social order,” and quite frankly, refuse to ascribe to it.

…Is there a social hierarchy at work that I’m supposed to be following??

I am asking a serious question, so if anyone can enlighten me, that would be most helpful.

I respect everyone and am kind to all… I don’t understand why the need for bullying.

I thought we were all there to do our jobs and get paid, not to cluck around like some chickens with their pecking orders.

Im sorry @Schztuna , I can’t enlighten you. I have always found it difficult to see who is “in” and who is “out.” I remember the first time I fell in love. I was 15 years old, and was very interested in a girl with long pigtails, until i was told by my friends that she was ugly and stupid.

I couldn’t understand it, but i was so stupid and immature that i accepted it and was convinced she was ugly.

Sometimes I’m glad I’m not young anymore.

When I started working at my place there was an ‘alpha’ guy at the office tried to talk over everyone and sound as smart as possible or let everyone know when he did something of value lol. I told him a bunch of times ‘yo were on the same team, it doesn’t matter who gets the contracts it’s that we get contracts for the business’ after about 3 months he eased off his ‘alpha’ approach :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
