Is it normal to remember being bullied and/or targeted at school, especially when you have made contact with people who used to go to your school and were part of it? I have been invited by these people to a reunion but all that I can remember is being targeted with verbal insults all the time from these people but they obviously don't seem to remember that they did it. Ok I have probably got better qualifications than they do now but I'm no geek, it took me a long time to realise I could get them and now have. But I still remember things they called me and said and am worried that it will happen again I suppose, don't know.

Is It Normal?

    The bullies never remember, and the victims can't forget..

    They probably won't remember a damn thing, that's usually the case, because they grew up being told it was normal, "kids will be kids" and all that bullshit. It was never important to them, so they don't really remember. It's a lot different for a person in that situation, and I'm sorry.. I was a total pariah growing up, I know how it feels. But in the end when were mote successful than them we get to have the last laugh. :)

    You remember those specific bullying situations even if the bully didn't because it was towards you. You probably had strong feelings towards what the bully did/said and it sticks out in your mind. We all remember when bad things happen to us, it's normal.

    of course, you never forget those kind of things. but if it was a long time ago, they probably won't be mean anymore, so don't worry. good luck.

    Yes, and I bet they do remember. But everyone gets picked on at some point even the coolest kids, people seem to think the geeky kids get picked on, not true. I even picked on the cheerleaders in middle school because it was fun. Don't worry about it, everyone goes through some sort of crap in school. :)
