Guest Kristmas Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I wish they knew that they helped me grow and stand up for myself, but I also want them to know that after what they did and said I had lack of confidence and I hated myself in a way they will never understand.

I feel more confident, but its still not fully back. I feel sorta happy it happened, so I could relate to people in the situation and help them get through it.

Go you I think I was able to build back my confidence, because once I learned how to stand up for myself more people wanted to be on my good side and so they were way nicer. Also I had my family to lean on to give me the confidence I needed. It wasn't easy, but I had to learn they had there own problems. I realized they felt that they could take it out on me and it makes me feel good, because they knew I could handle it and that gives me more confidence and they just didn't know it.

MoonieOwl Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 This kid in my class was horrible to me for the dumbest reason - we were born in the same day but I was born a bit earlier and he has wanted to be better than me at everything since he found out. I wish he would know how it affected me and that I would always end the day feeling awful because of him. If you somehow see this I hope you know it's you mister actually-born-8-hours-after-me. I also want to mention this one time when both are mums agreed I was older and then afterwards he came up to me and said 'yeah but technically I'm still older'. REALLY LEO???????

For example, if someone experiences racist hate, it is the racist attitudes that are wrong and not a person's skin colour which they should rightly be proud of. It's hard to remember this sometimes when we have these experiences but it can help to flip the narrative. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember that when someone bullies you, the problem is with them, not you. The person being bullied ends up being the target for whatever the other person is going through. There is nothing wrong with you, and you did not deserve this. If you like, you can talk to us about this.

millie 1221 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Guess what? I learned that they were not a friend at all and I was better off without them. I became successful, graduated from college and have a great career and true friends that treat me with respect and dignity. They are the loser...I would have been a great friend. They blew it for themselves! MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
