i am a girl from a secondary school and i feel like i am being
emotionally bullied by this boy in my class. he is known to be one
of the more "popular", "high profile" boys in the school and he
gets his way all the time. He is extremely obnoxious and
controlling and if something or someone is not to his liking, he
will flare up and scream like a mad dog at that person, and i
really literally mean SCREAM. recently, i had a conflict with this
boy and maybe it was a misunderstanding but it wasnt really a big
thing, just a few sentences exchanged and he screamed at me. I
decided to shut up because i knew it was useless arguing with such
people because they simply never learn and my friends and i had
quickly apologised for mentioning the thing that made him pissed
off. he finally decided to shut up. however, that was not the end
of it. he continued whispering to his gang of dog buddies in the
class who (obviously) sticks to him in fear of being screamed at or
outcasted about me and made faces and made mocking remarks right in
front of my face. when i have to go up and do presentations, he
makes faces at me and whispers to his friends loudly. and the
conflict happened just a day ago so i know thats not the end of his
antics.
this is not the first time he has done something like that to
someone as my friend happened to be a victim as well a few years
ago. he screamed at her outside the classroom until students in
other classes came out to see the commotion. he even wanted to hit
her, but was stopped in time by the class leader. he does this to
both girls and boys and when he doesnt like someone, he will
threaten that person like how he threatened my friend to making the
whole level of students hate her.
he also dislikes my other classmate and as a result, we both now
feel this dread of coming to school and seeing his face. and no, i
do not want to confront him or talk to him because he is just not
going to listen and he will just scream and shout like a maniac. i
have been ignoring his hurtful gestures since the incident had
happened. what is the proper way to deal with this?
