Not until jr. high when we moved.
Lasted for a year and a half till I finally fought back, of course I got the worst of the punishments and called names like 'psycho' and 'spaz' for the rest of my time at that school but FUCKING NO ONE tried to step to me again.
That is how you deal with bullies, you hurt them publicly, in front of their friends.
You hurt them bad enough they know never to fuck with you.
I spent a year and a half listening to my mother, being compliant, walking away, turning the other cheek.
Then when I couldn't deal with it any more I took my father's advice and smashed my bullies nose flat at lunch.
So much could have been avoided if they had just left me the fuck alone but no they had to push and push and push and push until they had to bleed.
I hated doing it, I hate violence and think it is the worst solution in every case, and in a rational world there are always alternatives.
But this isn't a rational world.
Told this to my nieces and nephew: The moment they start bulling you, even if you are outnumbered and might get the worst of it, fight back and aim for the face and nuts.
I'm sorry that you were forced to use violence.
