    My high school didn’t have bullies. Or exclusive cliques. Where did you all go to school?

      Mine did not really have cliques but there was definitely some bullying. I may have occasionally been involved in that. Nothing physical of course but words can be pretty fucking hurtful.

      Same. My high school was chill and all the students were largely respectful to one another.

      Middle and elementary school where a different story though. That shit was wild.

        I will forever maintain that 8th graders are the most vicious people on this planet

      Maybe you didn’t experience the bullying that was happening, or you weren’t on the outer of the cliques that existed?

        Yeah that’s just… not how that works? People are perfectly capable to keeping to themselves without necessarily being bullied

        I figured someone would say this, but… no? I haven’t seen a bully (in real life) since elementary school.

          I had a relatively similar experience. Some people were definitely treated like shit, but there’s was nearly none of what’s classically considered bullying, especially of a physical nature. Im not pretending it was some utopia where everybody got alone, but the vast majority of people were far too busy worrying about their own shit.
