I get teased a bit, but generally I never got bullied hard. I thank God for my sense of humor, because that's what basically means if you get bullied or not.
When you have a good sense of humor, you make friends a lot easier. And friends are power
But generally, I wouldn't let myself get bullied, I would just fight back and I wouldn't care for the consequences.
My dad says it a lot to me, if you get bullied, just fight, I won't punish you and I don't care about the consequences.
But I never needed it, I have some very popular friends and I'm the friend of everyone.
I guess that's my big power, I'm the friend of everyone. Thanks to my humor but also thanks to the fact that I'm always there for them.
Maybe a tip for the ones that get bullied is to make sure you are always in order. I always have clean paper sheets with me, several markers of several colors, Tippex roller, ....
That way, if they are in need of something, you can provide it to them. Just make sure to get it back
That's always the hard part, getting it back, but it never gave me a lot of problems.
That way, they won't hassle you a lot, because they need you.
A lot of people in my class ask me in the night to mail them that or what they need to do for that subject, and I'm always ready to give that to them.
It's a bit annoying of course, like when I'm gaming and I have to go to Windows to send that mail, but it pays off very well in the long end.
That way, you do them a favor, and you can ask favors of them. It's how I work, and it worked very well for me.
