How to deal with assholes

Theresa

So today at school this guy came up to me as I was walking into school saying I was a b**ch and f u and how I lied a bunch and it was really scary. I had told a teacher the day before how he was always trying to copy off of my homework and that is why he got in trouble but then he started verbally attacking me and I was really scared and felt really alone because no one stepped in to help me. I later told the assistant principal about it but it doesn’t change the fact that I was genuinely scared that he was going to hurt me. I just need some help in ways to deal with him because I have 3 classes with him and how to deal with feeling really down because of it. I tried to be the bigger person and when I got home I prayed and tried to understand God’s plan in all of it but I am having trouble doing so.
