I'm going to high school next year and I have a friend who's a year older than me there. He gets bullied and anyone who's friends with him gets bullied. I'm afraid that I'll get bullied even though I'll tell people. I want to hang out with my friend but I don't know what to do if the bullies start bullying us. It will continue even if I tell a teacher because it's been happening to him all year. What do I do?

high school doesn't really matter, what those people say has nothing to do with you, high school is the place where you can learn and succeed, what those people say is just shit and won't ever matter, if they are harming you then go to an adult, and if it doesn't stop go to the authorities, but if they are just mocking you, ignore them (I am not finished with it yet, and what people say doesn't matter as long as you are with you friends who respect you.) so just ignore them unless they are harming you.

Bullying almost doesn't exists in high school. At worst, send them packing.

I've never gotten bullied in my life, but my best advice is just to surround yourself by your friends and try to make new ones too.

Bullying in high school is pretty real no matter what people say. Yes it might not seem like it matters down the year but when you are actually in high school, its pretty much your whole world :p Yes it occurs with "weak" people, they get targeted either cus they look puny, weak, easy , nerdy-basically the type that won't fight back. You might say, bla bla stand up for yourself but if u cant carry in through it might end up worse. And no one online should be responsible if you are gonna take action.

What you need is resolve if you are targeted, there ain't no easy guide to get you out when you become bullied - the bully might be weak themselves and get scared or they'll try up one on you.

Voice your honest opinions early seems to work. But that helps you have fun at high school in general. You find out who you like , what you like faster and enjoy the things you want to do. 1st year is busy and everyone tries to "fit in" but by the time you reach older ages, lots of people say stuff like "all that drama" or what not and think it's pretty pathetic.

Only serious way is get stronger yourself, training your body and mind, to become confident enough to say if someone thats mess with you, it wouldn't be worth it. Calling teachers to your aid is pretty much a taboo and a lot of times the teachers can't be bothered. They too think you are a loser and pathetic.

So yes having good friends will help but if you are surrounded by victims you more likely than not will be "tested". But just remember the facts: bullying is lame; whatever happens will seem like baby stuff in a few years; don't go crazy cus its game over if you do; you'll have more fun if you do what YOU want - it just becomes a compromise of if you are willing to face the consequences.

The End p.s. Im bored.
