Have you ever been a bully? Do you feel guilty for it? What made you stop?

I briefly got bullied in year 9 I believe it was. I told my parents and they sorted it 😬 never happened again. I’ve been bullied in this app too by supposedly grown women. I’ve never been a bully though.

I've been a gossiping bitch before, yeah.What changed is I grew up and didn't want to be that person. Just because my "friend" was like that. Doesn't mean I had to. I apologized and we moved on.

I had a major superiority complex a few years ago. I’d intimidate others if I could and be an ass. So yes I would say I have been a bully. I do feel guilty, as well as stupid. Because I can only imagine how painfully obvious it was that I am not as tough as I tried to make it seem. I stopped because I realized that winning fights and making people afraid of me didn’t help anyone out. Not me, not them, and not anyone who had to be around us. There’s always someone bigger and badder who can outbully the bully. So I started taking the counseling I was required to take more seriously and changed my perspective on life. It isn’t always easy to be nice to people, but in the long run, it’s better to try to be nice than to just appear apathetic towards others because you are hurting. This probably doesn’t make sense lmao I tried

No, never. I know how to get along with people. For the most part I wasn’t bullied either when I was in school , but the few bullies I did come across I ended up befriending

Never been the type to bully anyone, no. I've taken up for plenty of people in my life though. Funny thing is, I never had the courage to stand up for myself. And I was bullied a lot.

No. I've always been majorly empathetic and i cant stand the thought of hurting someone's feelings. There's one girl who to this day says I bullied her, but shes wrong lmao.

I have been a bully. I feel guilty for some of the things I’ve done but not everything, honestly. I feel guilty for hurting people who never hurt me. Specifically, my friends and I were really awful to one boy when we were in 6th grade. He liked one of our friends and we could tell so we told him she liked him too and encouraged him to talk to her and send notes to her and whatnot, knowing she didn’t like him even slightly. We were assholes. Worse than that really. My friends and I were all really just awful to each other. I stopped when I was in 10th or 11th grade because I stopped being friends with those girls and started hanging out with other people instead. And truthfully my life was a wreck enough at that point so I was focused on my own issues and being hospitalized so there wasn’t much time to be a dick to anyone. Except my boyfriend who is now my husband and yes I feel guilty about every awful thing I’ve ever done to him. I am honest about it, not because I’m proud of it, but because it’s crazy to me how much my life has changed in just a few years.

When I was like 10 and under yes. Weirdly I made good w everyone and apologized to the few I did bully. I say weirdly bc one girl I apologized to when I was like 13-14, and the other kid I apologized to last year (when he asked me out?? Even weirder) so it’s not like I apologized in the same time frame of me bullying. What stopped me? Again like everyone else is saying, I realized how dumb I was being and how miserable I was making people so I decided before going into 6th grade I’d start fresh and stop. And I did.
