Question

What if someone says you're mean?

Jace

Community Answer

They were probably hurt by you, or they are joking. If someone calls you "mean," ask them why, and apologize if you hurt them.

Thanks! We're glad this was helpful.

Question

What do I do if someone bullies me really badly?

Chloerogerson

Community Answer

I've been there before. It's best to tell an adult, or someone you trust, and have them handle it. But, if that's not satisfactory enough, give them some ultimate burns later and see how they take THAT.

My classmate always says "Your problem" and I can't find a way of beating that. Can you please help me?

Either say nothing to them, or you could try saying something like "OK", and then just ignoring them.

What if my friend keeps calling me stupid or dumb over and over again, what are some comebacks for that?

Try saying stuff like, "I'm stupid? I was tryna act like you today", and “Look, I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and crap out a smarter statement than that.”

What if boys keep making fun of me?

Question

What comeback can I use when a former friend insults my friends and I?

WikiCloudHugger643

Community Answer

You could consider using a comeback such as, 'I would roast you right now, but my parents said not to burn trash.' Delivering this line and then disengaging can be an effective strategy.

Question

What should I do if I am bullied daily and when I attempt to defend myself, the bullies say, "You're not tough, so stop acting like you are"?

WikiCloudHugger643

Community Answer

You could tell someone about the bullying. Alternatively, you might respond with, "I'm not being tough; I'm just stating facts, so deal with it," or "I never claimed to be tough, but clearly you think I am."
