Bf and I teased by peers.

View More Posts Ignore
To start off, I usually aren't bothered when it comes to peers bothering me, but this time I am. I finally was deemed smart and pretty enough to find a nice boyfriend, but all I hear is people asking me why I ever liked him and things like "you can keep him," and people telling me that he's ugly and dumb. No one is congratulating me. Besides my friend thinks that he doesn't like me because he went to wisconsin with another girl who's a good friend of his and a fine person. I keep telling people that I don't care for their opinions because I never asked for them, but it just bothers me. What should I do?

" Hon you were smart and pretty before you had a boyfriend and everyone already knew it. Bullies are jealous insecure people. I know how hard it is to like your self when it seems like every one else doesn't, don't let them bother you because then they win. Be happy,bubbley and confident and they will hate it. .I have been told that my boyfriend's bad for me, but I didn't listen. My old friends wanted 100% attention and couldn't get a great guy like mine. So I had to say good bye. Three years later were still together and I have new more mature friends. Sorry I'm babling so say somone comes up to you and calls you ugly and fat you can smile and say thanks thanks or make a joke about them, a lot of comedians found there calling that way. Try to avoid those people and if it gets horrible go tell a teacher, you don't deserve to be picked on. If your school doesn't have an inti bulling day like mine go here http://www.challengeday.org/ then tell someone at your school who can make it happen. It's like a work shop that the whole school does and it really works. "

" Remember that your relationship is about you. Not your friends. I have had these issues too (with multiple relationships). It's just don't see what you see in him. I think it's great that you see something special in someone. :) Try to stay strong, and stay with him as long as you still have feelings for him.

Maybe next time someone asks why you like him, just say something like "who needs a reason? i just do. :)" with a smile. Or if they say "you can keep him", respond with a quip, like "i didn't need your permission, but i think i will. :D". And usually they'll back off and even accept the decision. Just don't be an easy target. :D "

" Sometimes you just have to say "Fuck you!" Adults should outlaw public, state, private and comprehensive schools. The only reason they don't is because no one as figured out a better idea on educating and baby-sitting youth.

Our school kind of reminds you about the stories of the Spartan agoge system. You're lucky to survive. I remember that the one thing my cousin said to me when I was 10. I came out of the closet to him before anyone. He told me that I needed to learn how to hurt and break bones if I wanted to survive being a gay kid. So I did. No one bothers me now, at least not with their hands. Their words cut even deeper. "

" Screw those people! I know its hard to but you have to try. I have had 3 boyfriends and during my realtionships with all of them we were teased.
One was very tall and most ppl said he wasnt cute.
One was my height and ppl said he was a fag
The one I am currently with is ooooolder.
My opinion was that the people are controlling because they want you to date who they picture you with, and they are misrable and lonley themselves.

When I ogot big enough balls I told them to F*%* off and mind their own buisness. They knew I was serious. The I seperated myself from them because in the future, I did not want that negitivity.

As long as YOU like him, and he pleases YOU and makes YOU feel good and trreats you right, then that is all that matters.
Happy trails :) "
