Hi Monica. I am a mother and son is 16. This girl who bullies you obviously is jealous of you for whatever reason. I always tell my son "don't sweat the small stuff". It's not worth it. Trust me oc you act like you don't care and it doesn't bother you, then it will bother her that your not upset by anything she does. People suck sometimes and it's never easy to just ignore bug know that your better than that. Don't let anyone bring you down. Hope that helps. Take care.

Noelle just watch your back and stay away from this person. Tell someone at the school.

But it DOES bug her. So why pretend it doesn't? Standing up for yourself is important. "Don't sweat the small stuff", since when is bullying that is causing serious self esteem issues small stuff? You need to stop the problem not ignore it.

Running away from your problems doesn't help and neither does ignoring them.

I've been bullied and the one and only thing that worked every single time is showing the person that I will not put up with it.

This topic totally strikes a chord with me because I've had friends who were constantly told to ignore bullies and to not stand up for themselves take their own lives. I feel like they'd still be here with me if they had actually done something about it.

I agree with Ave. Id do something about it. Kids these days are spineless. Talking wont help, ignoring does nothing, breaking their jaw is quite effective. I dont promote violence, but it does seem to work with stuff like this. Girls are really vicious to other girls these days but theyre nothing when theyre put in their place.

Well obviously ignoring her doesn't work, you've already done that. I'd say talk to the school. If they don't do anything for you insult her back and tell her how much of a waste of a person she is. Recommend her therapy for her self esteem problems.

^^^ it is true. I have talked to therapists, principals, teachers, police officers, and many people in the court system that agree. While most of them made it very clear they don't condone the act of violence ALL of them openly addmitted that in their personal experiences when a victim lashes out an used violence the bullying stops in almost ALL cases.

That had to say something. Too many people tell their kids to kill them with kindness or ignore them and the fact is, it just isn't a proper solution.

And telling on them? You will get made fun of more I can almost guarantee it. It's sad but most principals aren't even trained to handle situations like that. And I've found that most teacher were actually once bullies themselves.

I say talk to the school as well & if nothing is effective then take matters into your own hands is the only thing left to do . They can't say you didn't try to seek other help

^^^ yes that's a good idea. At least then you have a very valid reason.

I appreciate everyone's input and opinion. I feel like taking matters into my own hands is my only option but i'm still trying to come up with more options to do everything i can to avoid my last option. Don't tell me to ignore it and act like it doesn't bother. It does. And i've played that role far too long and has gotten me nowhere. I honestly don't think i did anything wrong for this girl and her friends to dislike me so much. But in class, you could just feel how thick the animosity was. You could cut it with a knife. Something was bound to happen. I confronte, we argued, she hit first and i stuck up for myself. Now that i'm back from suspension, it seems as though she has unfinished business with me. I'll be more than willing to go for a round two. Pardon my french, but i can't standddddd this bitch. She needs to be put in her place and stop seeking for so much attention.

Always talk to your teachers and parents. If you have an older sibling or cousins talk to them. Don't let her bother you or get to you in any way.

If she wants to behave in a poor manner and conduct herself with such little decorum that's her issue. Don't do the same back. You're a lady and ladies don't behave that way.

Lashing out with violence is not the solution. I can't believe how many people are advocating "taking matters into your own hands" when has beating someone up ever been a solution. It's utterly nonsensical.

She does bother her though.

Seriously she sounds like she needs a broken jaw to realize you can't treat people like they are worthless.

Do what you feel is right!

Sarah you couldn't be more wrong. I don't know what your personal experience with this situation is but it sounds like you don't have any what so ever.

Obviously violence works. Otherwise there would have never been war. Why do countries start wars? Because they are affective.

The better question is when has ignoring your problems and never standing up for yourself gotten anyone anywhere?

My friend Alex ended up hanging from the rafters in his garage because he took everyone's advice and tried his best to ignore his bullies. That worked so great for him didn't it?

Girls like that seem to be pulled together and cool but I swear to you that when you get older you will be on the up and up and she'll have her own issues. I swear if you keep your head high and priorities strength...if it gets to be to much find her flaw and call her out on it.... Like you just make fun of me because your fat... But really just know that in the long run you'll be the stronger one... Fighting is ghetto...and makes her look ghetto
