Sadly i've been bullied from when i was in year one, (I dont know what that is in american grades lol)
year six boys, about 5 to 6 years older than me pushed me, trod on my face, back and hit me in my bollocks, and i was like 7
then, now in secondary school i get bullied because i want to be an author/business manager, because im not popular (Thats my AS), things i say which i don't mean, like when i said that i liked death and stuff, which i didn't have any feelings of sadness for, i still dont know why, and mainly beacause i wasn't "cool", i was really depressed a while back cause of the girl that i have strong feelings for, practically love, and i found she had a boyfriend and people found out and spread it, but i'm happy when i realise that thanks to my AS, i have the potential for brilliance equal to that of Einstein, who i admire for his intellect, theres more, but i get sad writing about it :(

People picked on me because I had anger problems and I looked like a male.

In grades 1-3 I got in trouble and I was almost never sure why I was in trouble. I once told on a kid, who then hassled me calling me a "snitch". I talked to my mom and she said I shouldn't have told on him. Now that confused me. I thought I was supposed to tell an adult when I was hassled. Now I've developed discretion about this type of thing.

I got hassled plenty in school up until high school, and now I kinda like nts, though I still rarely talk.

People said that I was too quiet and boys made fun of my face, saying that my nose was massive and that my lips were too big.

*I like cats (stupidest reason ever to get bullied :roll: )

:cry: lightning88, I've been made fun of for liking cats too!! in 6th grade, over 90% of the people in my classes started coming up with mean jokes about to share to me, and were talking about their dogs. They laughed, and I backfired at them with rage. :evil: Also, i was literally obsessed with numbers and would make up kitty cat IFs and give them numbers that i particullarly liked. <sarcasm> Suprise! Kids started to combine their anti cat jokes to my numbers. But despite of all that, i still like cats and numbers, still tell people about it; only I don't really have IFs anymore, and I don't immaturely react when i hear a number I liked being called. I've been numbering my friends, did so since the middle of 6th grade, and I've perfected my system over time. The story about this is rather long and I should post it elsewhere later.

Meanwhile
people said things like:

-How do you make a cat go "woof"? Soak it in lighter fluid, light a match, set the cat on fire, and WOOF!
-Have you ever 69ed a cat?
-Cats suck. dogs rule.
-Stupid cat lover
-I killed 64, 61, 68, 46, etc.
-It's cruel of you to number people. Numbers mean nothing. You shouldn't refer to people by them. That is what NAMES are for.
-There's that ret*d(me) who's riding the special ed bus home.
-No boy will ever date you
-Do you shave?
-You dress like a grandma
-you should be listening to rap
-You are the most annoying person in the world. Quit stalking people. Nobody likes you.

XD This new invention of emo and nerds being cool has been both wonderful and thoroughly odd for me.

I used to be teased senseless for being aspie, geeky and generally just different. I talked about things that made more sense in my head then they actually do in reality and pretty much everybody hated me. I in a sense became the bully, only after having to be taken out of school early a few times for crying hysterically when kids picked on me. I used to pick on people weaker then me, who were picked on by everybody... I feel terrible about it now. My mother wishes death on the kids who hurt me, even back then... I can only imagine what those kids' parents thought of me.

Anyway, now, all of a sudden. Being a geek. is COOL. Having mismatched socks, dying your hair, talking about anime is COOL. I've been doing that my entire life and now it's cool! I'm happy... only now... a lot of people call me a poser when they came in with the trend... O.o

You can just never win. XD But whatever.

Everyone discrimitated me for having AS. Everyone thought I was one of those total ret*ds who s**t their pants, can't talk and can't think for themselves, and treated me accordingly. Everyone thought I was too ret*d to understand sarcasm so I got a lot of "HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII HOW ARE YOU????????????????" and on one occasion "HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII WANT ME TO WASH YOU HANDS?????????????????" I guess it's much easier to make stupid assumptions then to pull your head out of your arse and actually try to look these things up!
It got worse when I stood up for emos, and actually admitted to being one (I have nfi why I did that, seriously I'm NOT emo), so everyone assumed that I cut.
And of course no-one could be arsed sticking up for me, thus pushing my hatred for NTs even further.

rawwr i got that in primary school or they'd say my name realy stupidly, they started when they realized that i didnt know any ones name and just plain didnt care about anyone outside my group, it confused the f**k out of me cus i knew at least some of them liked me but they just laughed at me whatever i did (usually mumble and walk off)

then when i moved high schools two really pretty girls started doing it, turned out they did like me .... confidence boost much?

~ The Way I talk.

~ The Way I walk.

~ My taste in music.

~ The Way I only talk to people I want to talk to and not respond to pricks, dicks and wankstains of life.

~ How I'm constantly patronised as people think I'm some kind of ret*d.

~ How I socialise.

I'm always constantly moaned at, and am never left alone when I'm at school.

Bullies are part of the reason why I think many to most NTs drive me up a wall. I mean, I'm a high school sophmore who's almost a junior, and bullying STILL exists. I'm getting pretty close to completely turning from society altogether. Quite frankly, I'm sick of it; society is my biggest enemy...and the chance of victory against it looks slim to me. :(

I don't go around other teenagers and when I encounter them I don't talk to them. And anyway if people want to say things about me or my intrests they can get lost. I often carry around a little dog and people want to pet it. Usualy they are too focused on her. Which is why I carry her around. She's also sometimes serves as a people replenent because people around here seem to think chihuahuas are just naturaly mean.
