I am just curious... To anyone out there who bullies and has come onto this website...
Why do you do it? Does it bring you some uncanny satisfaction, putting other smaller people down and making them feel like nothing? Do you like to hear their cries for help, their screams of terror, and their looks of fear when they see you? Is it a joyous occasion when you send someone home with broken bones, chipped teeth, bleeding injuries, or feeling like they just don't deserve to go on? Do you like to realize that you might have pushed or are pushing someone to suicide?
I'm asking those questions to bullies. To people like me, who are/have been bullied their entire lives...
You don't need to listen to them. A bully doesn't know who you are, what you've gone through or how you feel. You are a person, just like them. You aren't some maggot with legs. They don't know you, they don't know your circumstances. All they know is you look weaker, inferior. But you're not. If you've made it this far, you have the strength of an Angel and the heart of gold.
When you don't retaliate, don't call them back names, just defend yourself and move on, that makes you a bigger person. Bigger than that bully that just called you a bad name. Bigger than anyone that has never been bullied before.
You don't need to worry about what they have to say. What they say doesn't have anything to do with you, even though it is directed at you. They don't know anything of what they're talking about. All they know is they see you, and for some reason they see a target. But you are better than to let yourself be one.
A bully has no reason to be mean to you, either. So what if you're gay? So what if you're African American? So what if you have no hair because of cancer? So what if you have Down Syndrome? So what if you're pregnant? So what if you're only 4'11" and a guy?
So what? You're a person, just like them. They don't know you. You could have a hormone imbalance, making you gay. Your family could have been part of the African American civil rights movement, making you a legend. You had cancer. That's enough. You could have beaten odds as a child and lived, making you an amazing fighter. You could have been raped, and conceived. Your family could be small, making you small.
Bullies don't know those stories. They just see what's in front of them. I have made it my resolve to never listen to them again. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but never again will those words hurt me.
