I was bullied at school,because I didn't fit in with "the crowd" . It wasn't physical assault, but constant ribbing, p*** taking, and stupid rumour spreading. You're gay, you're a puff etc . You haven't got the right trainers, I used to get new shoes every year, at the start of term, and I liked to keep them polished, so the bullies would grab me and scratch the shoes with stones, or try to make me " dance" by trying to stamp on my shoes.
I was always a bit soft, until I started karate, a mobile video rental man I got friends with,introduced me to it
After I had been training for about a year, it gave me the confidence to stand up for myself.
