I never really got "bullied" so to speak, just made fun of because I kinda slur my last name when I say it. Granted all that stopped when I shoved one of the kids that did it into a drinking fountain and broke 2 of his teeth.

In middle school I was just a very strange kid, so i was bullied very often. But from an early age my dad taught me how to fight so the bully would always end up bloodied up. But I was still so odd that people kept on coming to make fun of me and I'd just beat them up. Stopped when i got to high school, then there was no such thing as bullying. Which really leads me into an interesting theory, i found that the bigger the school the less bullying occurs. The worst bullying stories I've heard are from very tiny schools, any one have a similar experience?

I wasn't bullied a lot growing up, but when I came out in my freshman year, the bullying went up like...82390874093845%. Seriously. People just suddenly hated me exclusively for that reason.
It was rough, but it made me stronger, so I can't complain too much.

Neither. I couldn't be a bully if I tried and I was never bullied either. In my 32 years,I've never been in a fight in my life thankfully.

Yes I was bullied. But I didn't care. Most of the time it was Verbal, which goes through my ear, and out the other. they end up screaming abuse to grab my attention, they get in trouble for verbal bullying, I win.
Rarely, I would get into fights, which would end very quickly, because I never put up a fight, I would pushed them down, and walk off. by the time, they catch up with me, they attempt a punch, miss, get noticed by Staff, get in trouble for trying to start a fight, I win.
I then went to comprehensive school, and all bullying stopped.

In elementary school, I was a total bully to one kid in particular.
In mid school, I got bullied a lot but I still bullied the same kid and another person.
Then early in high school I was bullied a little, but my junior and senior went okay.
I think I can attribute being bullied for me being overweight and being one of the last kids to hit puberty.

I was only really hardcore bullied once. This kid who was 2-3 years older than me was in 8th grade when I was in 6th. He said something trying to be a bad ass in front of everyone and iI wise-assed back to him. He kept at me, egging me on constantly. I was actually about the same size as he was so I didnt think I'd get beaten if I were to fight, was more worried about my parents getting pissed off if I got kicked out of school or suspended for fighting. One day I was heading to my table at lunch and he tipped my tray over in front of everyone. The result was me doing the 6th grader equivalent of a beat down. Meaning I knocked him over and flailed wildly at his face, bloodied his nose pretty good. Our parents were called in and his parents got into an argument with my parents because apparently he had told his parents I started it.
A couple weeks later while my aunt was watching me ourneighbor had come running over to our house, his smoke detector was going off. It was going off because our roof was on fire. Our house had been fire bombed.
A few days later I was walking home from school and found another molitov cocktail uder our shrubs by the ac unit outside. Well apparently like father like son, a guy who was drinking buddy of the dad heard him running his mouth that the two of them were throwing molitov cocktails at our house.
Dad wound up going to jail, the kid got set to juvie and last I heard hes a homeless heroine addict.
Since then I've grown to despise bullying.

Both.I never really had a problem with it, though, because I won 86% of the time.
It only ever really bothered me when people were bullying my friends or my sistsers.Especially my sisters, like I mentioned here before, I actually really hurt someone who was bullying my sister when I was younger.
We were mostly picked on for being Jewish.I don't consider myself Jewish (I'm an atheist), but my last name is Rothstein, so there was no way around that.I got bullied for being bisexual, too, despite the fact that I look totally straight.
I was a bully myself, too.

I still get the occasional person who hates me just for how I look/act/whatever. But they can go f*** themselves. Seriously. The people who hate you totally don't matter.

Back in like 6th and 7th grade quite a bit. Now a days people say stuff to me, but its mostly because that person and I are just dicking around so it doesn't really mean anything. However, sometimes I bully random people, especially when I first meet them because I'm an asshole and love belittling people.

I was bullied severely from Grade 1 until my first year in Grade 7 - which I failed because I had to skip so much school...it was the only way to be safe. I was literally the most hated person in school from day one until the very end of that first try at Grade 7.
I was also bullied at home, so you can imagine how much fun my life was.
That stuff has a way of staying with you. Today I can look back and see it in another light - the reasons behind it, etc - but I still find the effects of it get me even today.

I was varbally bullied at High School, but mostly ignored, and never got physically bullied, so i got off lightly. My reason would be because, i wasn't sporty guy, quiet and effeminate looking, however i was so quiet at High, i was very withdrawn, so i wasn't really bugged alot.

While only physically bullied until 1st Grade, I've been verbally bullied, and did some verbal bullying for a looooong, looooong time, hence which is why I walk around like the world owes me something. ;D
