Bully help

[Tylor lakon]

So there is this kid at school, i'm not going to say his name but we will call him bob.
So bob goes around school making everyone feel like crap, especially me. I don't know why he just takes my friends away, talks behind my back and spreads untrue rumors about me. I'm starting to consider bashing bob, but he hangs out with this bulky guy (who is my friend that he took away) and last time someone tried to bash him my friend got in front of the fight and took several hits to the head while bob sat up against the lockers crying. I'm sick to death of putting up with his crap can someone give me some good advice? I would really appreciate it.

I'm afraid beating him up won't help in the long term and you don't want to sink to his level. Do the teachers notice what's happening? A new trick at my school is to lure the bullies in front of a camera so that there's evidence. The best thing to do is to stand up to him, this stops most bullies. If you could get a group of people to stand up to him that would be even better. Remember: bullies are cowards. I hope you can sort him out :)

Yeah the teacher know, he has been suspended god knows how many time. But I kinda do feel just a little sorry for him, because I know all his lying, cheating, rumors and stealing is going to get someone a hell of a lot worse then me

Yes people's actions do come back to haunt them and it sounds like this guy isn't going to have many people on his side when that happens. People who make rumors and stuff are generally just jealous. Unfortunately for him one day someone won't be as understanding as you.

That's freaking hilarious that bob was crying xD What kind of "badass" bully shows their little boy side when he's trying to seem intimidating? Anyways, it's become obvious that he is totally not the badass he's trying to come across as. I wouldn't beat him up if I were you, one because your friend is on his side and two because you'd get in trouble. Oh, let's not exclude the "sink to his level." If he starts nagging at you, puff your chest up and look down your nose at him, and say something like "I'd back off or you'll be crying by the lockers again." Or you can always try the original bucking.

Okay I'm not the greatest at giving advice with bullies, (because I usually hit people who try to mess with me...) but if you wanna do it the nice-guy way you can always go to the counselor or maybe talk to your parents? Never underestimate the power of Dr. Mom. :D

Well, whenever he fucks with you, do you give him some kind of reaction? If so, don't.
It's likely he'll stop if you don't give into his shit. That's why bullies bully. For a reaction.
But, if he continues to bully you for a prolonged amount of time, even after you've started ignoring him, it's best to let the principal of your school know about this.
If he still doesn't leave you alone after that, then, well, some people may disagree with me on this, but you may have to kick his ass. When I had a bully before, that's what I had to do, and after that, he left me alone.

But yeah, beating him up should definitely be a last resort. Try other things before it gets to that point. But he'll probably leave you alone if you just ignore him.

Im not good giving advice about this cuz I really hate fight. BUT this happened some months ago, I was in the recess and a bunch of kids started to call me names like faggot cuz I had long hair, then one of them pushed me in the back and then I started to fight with him. I know, was not the right thing 2 do, I got a suspension and my Dad asked me to cut my hair, but these guys after I fought they left me alone. BTW Im gay not out and I don't like fights and that stuff but I had 2 do it.

Confront the kid. Call him out, ask him why he's such a douchebag.
Most of these bullies will stop after being confronted, but then they'll move onto another victim.
Do NOT fight, unless he hits you first, even then, you shouldn't fight back.
I believe in standing your ground, but the school system is extremely messed up(nicer way to put it), you'd get into a load of crap, and the same would happen to him.
If your school has a school relations officer, try speaking to him, tell him you're being harassed.
But fighting/attacking him isn't the best thing to do. Try different things, and when all else fails, try not to bleed too much ;)

You should stand up for yourself, but try not to be at his level and stay away from insulting him and beating him down. Tell him something like, "Hey listen, nobody here appreciates it when you make fun of people. Have you ever thought about how your words impact others? Imagine if one of your victims commited suicide, think about how bad you would feel!" Maybe it wouldn't make him back down but it would likely get you a lot of friends who would help make a movement against bullying at your school.

This. It's good to stand your ground, snitching will just make the bully hate you more.

I'm sorry about your bully, people are just so mean in school.

Eh, I could never keep my self from fighting back. Idk I just had to. And after i did not many would mess with me. But I was very strong. Ive been a gymnast for 15years and it shows. I have more muccle than most boys. Dont fight if they can totally cream you. Then i would do something else to get back if adults wont listen.
Some times we are left to our own defenses, what ever that may be. :/

[CosmicNoodle]

Just mention it to someone.
Don't keep it to yourself, i did that and i got beat up every day for 5 years, don't make my mistake. Because of the constant beatings i now have a messed up back and i think he may have cracked one of my ribs once because i could not breath without pain for 3 weeks.
The teachers are there to listen to you. And they HAVE to help you. So just tell one of them. That bully is just a nob, he deserves the punishment he got.

Beating "bob" up definitely won't help. I'm afraid that taking the more wimpy approach to this problem would be best. That is, talking to a principal or teacher or someone you trust.
