Yeah, I have been bullied. It wasn't fun but it happens. I eventually became one of those diplomatic folk that made friends with the top assholes and in return, the bottom assholes that did most of the "bullying" never bothered with me. It pays to make friends with the dominant types. Studies show that people who use violence as a means to solve their problems typically are not the most intelligent of the bunch (in short, have low IQs). I catered to that notion and got fantastic results. My being a cute little mousy nerd girl probably helped by leaps and bounds. I pity boys, because they don't get much of it when THEY are bullied.
Cyber bullying? Quit taking the internet so seriously. Block, report, or delete, or better yet, go to a different website. I don't want to knock the validity of cyber-bullying here but... On the internet, you can just click the X at the top right corner of your screen. Problem solved. In a place like school, you don't get the option to leave and not face consequences, on the street clicking X when a group of guys comes after you isn't an option either. 9 times out of 10 if you are being bullied on the internet, it is because you are allowing them to by not clicking that X. I don't even put it in the same league as actual bullying.
It's best to remember that people that try to cause pain to others generally have pain within themselves. Don't give others so much control over your emotions. Someone can say something offensive, but you have the choice as to whether or not you are to be offended. If you're going to live your life being injured by every little mean comment that comes your way, and you are planning on doing something that doesn't involve unplugging everything and locking yourself in your house for the rest of your days then by the time you are middle-aged you will be one emotionally disturbed person.
How much does bulling affect you ?
