Today, I finally stood up to the guy who's been bullying me for the last 2 years. Even though he's been caught in the act several times, he never gets punished, so I figured I'd get away with gut-punching him. Nope. An hour later, I was suspended from school. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after years of torment and relentless harassment, I finally built up the courage to stand up to a bully. I got a detention for swearing at him. FML
Today, I finally stood up to a bully who had been messing with me for over a year. His response? He picked up the chair I was sitting in and threw me across the room. FML
Today, I finally stood up for myself and beat the crap out of a bully at school, as my father told me to do. The kid and I were called to the principal's office, along with our parents. Inside my father's smirk faded when he saw that the kid's mom was his boss. FML
Today, I finally had it with the redneck bully who's been tormenting me. He was repeatedly poking and pinching me and laughing out loud during class, so I slung him to the ground, pinning him. I got suspended. They only called his parents, who never do anything; my "caring" parents are looking into teen boot camp. FML
Today, I fought back with words against a bully. He cried, and I got detention. FML
Today, I finally confronted my bully. Too bad it was at my high school reunion and he beat the shit out of me. FML
Today, I got my ass beat by some kid in my grade. The reason I was targeted? The superintendent, aka my idiot father, suspended him for defending himself in another fight. The kid told me it's not personal, he needed to prove a point that our school doesn't do shit about bullying, As much as I agree with him… FML
Today, I was suspended from school for “being involved in a fight.” The other girl beat me up while I didn't do anything to defend myself, for fear of getting in trouble. She got off scot free. FML
Today, a girl I've never met before came up to me and punched me in the face, because she wanted to get suspended. FML
Today, I stood up to the school bully in a fight. Rather than thank me, the whole school, including some of his victims, now treat me like a psycho. Apparently they tolerated him because of his terrible foster parents, so me hitting him was actually way out of line, and insensitive. How did I become the bad guy here? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You may have gotten suspended, but he now know what you can and will do. Don't see this entirely as a problem, as it may have been your solution.

That sucks, but at least you got some personal revenge?
vb68_fml 28
And then the guy will get more revenge...not a wise advice to give to a kid. Revenge never pays off

@5 unless your revenge means killing of course :) then he won't be able to do something back :p

but it doesnt pay unless you do the time.

Actually #5 when I was in school I had the same problem as the Op. I finally stood up to the guy who bullied me and ended up beating the crap out of him. He was too afraid to mess with me anymore after that. Sometimes you have to fight back.
gracehi 33
Yeah, bullies are cowards at heart. They don't pick on kids who can fight back. Now that he knows OP is willing to physically harm him, he'll be too afraid to mess with him.

I had a very similar thing happen in my life. I can almost guarantee OP's problem is gone, after I punched my bully he left me alone.

I feel like most schools don't do shit about these problems which causes suicide among teens to happen because they just ignore the problem or make it worse. I once got jumped on my way to school, and because it "wasn't on school grounds" they didn't do anything and i was terrorized by the same assholes for the rest of my sophomore year

It's actually not worth it because the bully now knows he won't get in trouble, but the op will if the op lays a hand on him.

He may consider it a win, but the school was absolutely right to punish a kid who punched another.
sweetbliss3 37
so what you're saying is it's okay to bully someone, but when they finally stick up for themselves it's wrong? I think the school is in the wrong for not punishing the bully.
DoomedGemini 38
If they don't want to do shit about bullying, no they were not right to punish him for punching another kid. Either do your ******* job and punish the bully the first time or turn the other way when the kid finally stands up for themselves.

#22 maybe you should read your own picture.

#22 even though they never punished the bully when he got caught? schools have a horrible way of dealing with bullying and now that he has stood up to him it's likely to stop
malcboss38 10
That's what I always say. If your good at home. And you got back at the bully. It's a win-win
freddygasman 18
chuka81, it's called self defense. he was being harassed and his well being was threatened. when the school wouldn't step in to deal with it, he had to defend himself and was punished for doing so.

Get some help from outside of school, parents, friends...and don't keep that suffering and anger for you. Violence only creates violence as your story proves. Good luck OP I hope you will find some help soon and get better!

Gotta go for a nut punch. Make him feel the pain.

Where im from if you use a low blow in a fair fight even if you win, no one will respect you. You mght fnd people jumping in on his side.
kuro21 20
If someone is essentially beating the crap out of you without much effort, it's not a fair fight. A fair fight is two equally matched people, just putting that out there.
Xandrick 22
Well, it really sucks that he got away with it all for 2 years while your one attempt to serve him justice got you canned. Still, that blow to his gut serves him right, and I hope that scrub trash stays the hell away from now on.
alvarny 17
might as well get in a few more punches now.
amileah13 26
Figures. You finally stand up for yourself and you're the one that gets punished. Hey, be proud of yourself op. You've finally taken a stand against that asshole and he got what he deserved.
Dexter83_fml 17
I'd still turn up and when they say something day well you didn't suspend him why should I
tranced_ 45
Don't lower yourself to his level OP. .you're better than that and if he bullies you again, file a police complaint as it's a criminal offence.
