yeah until the kid can't have kids when hes older...

hes a bully now, but in the future he might be a nice guy, meet a nice girl and want to start a family but because in middle school you repeatedly kicked him in parts he will need to do that, he can't.

I'm a big fan of the "freak him out" method. Do stuff that makes you seem completely tripped out and weird, if you're lucky it'll make him so uncomfortable around you that he may lay off the harassment.

Of course if that doesn't work, I found that hitting on him can be much more effective that hitting him. Most guys like that are such homophobes that if you try and hit on/seduce him, it'll cause him to run to hills and never bother you again.

take it from my experience, if you go to a school administrator, the problem would likely get worse because you "ratted" on him. all you can really do (unless he threatens your life and you can prove that he did.) iis stnad by and take it, or give him what he wants, a fight.

Even if you lose the fight, i think he will stop picking on you because he will know you are not easy pray, and will fight back. Bullies like people that will not have a physical reaction to them picking on the person.

I was in the same situation once. I eventually had enough of his BS and i punched him right in the nose. We had a little fight, but i wiped his face in the ground, and then that was that.

i agree with that i remember you had a run in with a guy a couple months back. Thanks for everyone's help i feel alot better about it now keep posting! Already its raised my profile at school people are saying i am very brave to do it but everyone says he is an idiot ( to word it nicely) apart from his gang i think a fight will be inevitable but i'm going to start pumping some iron also for myself.

Thanks again

possibly, but if you do it with the right attitude most people will know what you are doing and it will hopefully serve to make him look like a bigger fool. just an idea, different courses of action work in different situations. plus i wouldn't want to associate with people who look down on someone that uses a creative (albeit strange) way to get out of a physical altercation.

People from america have to remember fightin is a bit different in the uk, if it is the same as in Northern Ireland it is rough, generally the winner is the one with the fewest broke bones lol,

I would say stay away from him dont talk to him, If the worst comes to worst and u find urself in a fight, then be ready, that scary gut feeling is the adrenaline the is to enjoy it this will make u feel no plain and you will do better then, but the next day is a DAY THAT WILL BE FILLED WITH LOLLIPOPS AND POODLES lol

If your education is at risk, ie you dont wanna get excluded then just take the punches, i had to do this once and i just stood up and took 4 headbutts, but i stil got in trouble so just throw diggs and dont give him any time

i would agree if i still lived in London but this guy is just a local town person who has some reputation and I'm not scared of him because i've had to fight much scarier people but i agree about Northern Ireland it is very different i used to live there too. lol ive moved around a bit there i wouldn't get myself in any situation with anyone. Basically this guy think i've disrespected him by writing the rap but for me all i was saying was don't try me or judge me because he doesn't know me or my life, which i think was reasonable considering the way he kept trying to bully me and my friend who's a girl which is not cool.....

and in terms of getting into trouble i am not too concerned my mum works in the school and will make it known that i acted in self-defense even if i do get suspended for a couple days i would prefer that than be a victim for the next couple years. Even if i lose the fight i think he will try it on with someone else (ignore innuendo) afterwards, but yeah some guys are just jerks.

So your gonna fight him then LOL.
Your not from Scotland (like me) so it shouldn't be as violent as the fights i've had if you get the chance use a weapon if that counts as self defense in your school (does at mine).

Good Luck

what ever you do. DO NOT USE A WEAPON. DO NOT USE A WEAPON. DO NOT USE A WEAPON

i had a bat in my car.. IN MY CAR, and i got in trouble for having it. I never took it out, never showed it to anyone, never even said i had it. cop looked in my car, saw it, and i got in trouble. So if i would have used it, it would have been assault with a weapon causing bodily harm. criminal record, jail time, life over.

fighting with a fists, and fighting with a weapon are completely different stories.

fighting with a fist, get in a little bit of trouble, fighting with a weapon, go to jail. (at least here and in the states anyway)

im a little late in seeing this thread but anyways you should fight him cuz if you don't stand up for yourself your practically inviting more bullies also keep in mind that guy probably isn't tough at all he sounds like the loud allways flexing type which is just laughable the real people you have to worry about are the silent ones not the ones who run their mouth .
