Today, I got back to my dorm room and took off my jacket. On the inside of the hood someone had scribbled "bitch." I've been bullied my whole life, and this hurts just as much at 19 as it did at 9. I don't know why some people have to be so mean. MMT

Because they are assholes. My guess is that they are jealous for what you had because in life, nothing really is fair.

ive been bullied my whole life by family and friends and just random kids at school.. and i still start to cry when someone calls me annoying. even if they arent trying to be mean. its kinda like my switch.

Whoever did it, you're better then him/her so don't let it get to you. People who spend their time on doing childish things like that will never achieve anything.

The truth is, they're just jealous of you. You're a beautiful person inside and out and you shouldn't let them upset you. Petty, petty jealousy. Continue being who you are and screw the jealous people... and hey, if you have haters, you know you're doing something right. :P

Who says they're jealous? They're mostly likely bored and stupid and see you as an easy target - which you're letting them be by responding like a child. Unfortunately at your age they're settled into being assholes and won't change. Best to do is ignore their cruelty and let them move on. Can't someone throw out the Eleanor Roosevelt quote on this MMT too? "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." Easier said than done, but it's the only way.

Don't let them get you down! Smile, you are beautiful!

You are beautiful. Don't let them tell you any different. Juat think about it, you are going to be the one with a family and friends who love you, and they are going to grow up to be mean old ladies with bad botox and on their 4th husband

Ignore those who are ignorant like the person from comment number eight* You are human just like me and every single bully there is* We all have feelings and that does not mean that you are "spineless" or a coward* You have a heart and I know it can be difficult cause even I have had bullies* It"s a horrible experience and at the end ignore those comments all people want to do is put you down* Don"t give them that pleasure be STRONG like I"ve had to be and many others* God loves you and you also have you"re family that"s all that matters* :) GOD bless you!

try not let them get to you, your better than them. the reason people bully is to distract themselves from something deeper in them. their the ones with the problems. you will be fine :) x

I know the feeling. Just keep smiling, I can honestly say it pisses the bullies off. They will keep trying to hurt you, and never let them see your hurt, but also, don't hind the pain from people who can help you.

I think these kinds of people hasn't grown up yet. they're still at the point of their lives when all that matters is getting their emotions/ideas out no matter how bad it is. It is childish that they don't have a little sense of control or that they do not think about how others would feel. Sooner or later they'll grow up. And then when they do, they'll realize how a big bully they are and how scared they are that their children would be treated the same way. Just stay positive. Despite that "someone" who messed with your jacket, I'm pretty sure there are others who would be sad if you get hurt by that.
