Why are some people so mean? :(?
I don't understand meaness either, Sam. Over fifty years ago when I was still in school there was a beautiful girl, from a wealth family. Now you would wonder why some with it all, would be cruel to other children through out grade school and high school. She could be mean. She made fun of me because I was tiny, wore glasses, and spoke with a lisp. She made fun of a girl with a painful skin condition, she made fun of a boy with a hunch back. Most of us were able to let it go, knowing we treated others with kindness and respect. I have been out of school for over fifty years, have raised a family and stayed married to the same man until he died. The job working at school was so enjoyable, and because I and others had been made fun of, it taught me compassion for the children who were made fun of and I did not tolerate unkindness of one another when I was on the job. If you can take the unkind things that happen to you, and it teaches you kindness and compassion, then you are on the upside. People will like you for the good person you are, and those who do make fun of you are the ones with the problem. Remember the mean girl I spoke of? She ended up in pretty tough shape because she got mixed up with the wrong people. The rough life ruined her looks. She never came to any of our class reunions that we had every 5 or 10 years. Most of those of us who were mare fun of, not all, turned out to be happy and successful people. I hope you can use your experiences to build your character and find success in your life. Right now though, if the teasing becomes intolerable, please tell someone you trust. Do not respond in angry tones to those mean people, because it may anger them and make things worse. Realize that they are the ones with the problem and not you. You know who you are. Blessings and happy wishes to you. I am typing on an iPad so please forgve any auto corrects you see here. :-)
Why are people so mean to me?
It's mainly the people who you hang out with. There are allot of people out there who think they can be mean to nicer people just because they picture nice people as weak. You have to show them that you are not a doormat and stand your ground. If you just continue to be nice to the people who are horrible to you, chances are they are just going to get worse. I'm not really saying that you should insult them back, but just tell them straight out how you feel about how they treat you. Be aggressive and stand your ground, but don't be violent. Try not to actually insult them back though, because that will only make things worse. Just make sure that they understand that you are a person and look them straight in the eye to show them that you are serious. it's great that you are a nice person, but just remember that just because you are nice, doesn't always mean that others will be nice back. If they still continue to that you like crap, then don't even hang out with them or talk to them any more, because in that case they simply don't deserve a nice friend like you, and you definitely deserve better.
Why are people at school so mean?
Hi Pink, I'm new to yahoo answers and i'm a target for bullying as well. Cruel world isn't it? People have been bullying me less everyday because i learned one thing. Self confidence. You must learn this or people will throw you around. It really works. And please don't believe what others think of you. Only think of your opinion on yourself. You're wrong though, you're not ugly nobody is. This whole world is filled with beautiful people, it's just everyone bullying you is acting ugly. Just hold your head up high and keep going, no matter what. Because you can succeed in life. Those people in the bathroom who called you that need to learn some manners. They need to stop blocking the way while they're gossiping about justin bieber's latest haircut and move so you can go to the bathroom. I'm pretty sure you didn't mean to push into that girl anyways you said it was a crowded time at the bathroom. But trust me if you don't soak in what people think of you, you will be a unique person, unlike the rest of the people who keep following the "in-crowd" and the "friend" you had, don't believe she is that so called word. she's not, she's a back stabbing hoe. Sorry about that language but she is. A real friend wouldn't say that, she's not what you think she is. A true friend would stick by your side no matter what. Even if you embarrass her. My friends embarrass me all the time in public. Do i care? NO. Cause they are friends, and friends are suppose to embarrass you. So sweetie keep going in school, don't stop and never regret it. Don't ever look back and reach for what you want in life. Get good grades in school and earn your way to respect. You'll get there one day. And if people keep bullying you, tell the guidance counselor. This helps. MANY. Good luck, i know you can do it. Ginny <3
Why are some disabled people so mean?
Hey Rick don't feel bad i've also had this problem. I would help people who looked like they needed help but in return I got dirty looks and not a 1 thank you. I've stopped and now go on about my business.
Why are people so mean to me in college?
I am a 3rd year university student and I am studying Pharmacy. This year, everyone has suddenly started being mean to me and I am really upset. Some girls who I thought were my close friends started treating me like dirt. They don't count me as part of our friend group anymore and they always exclude me from conversation. I lent one girl my hat, and she still treats me really badly. I even took them to Christmas lunch (my aunt drove them from uni) and they're still really nasty to me. I changed my group of friends and now I have started to avoid them. Not only that, people I don't even know are always really nasty to me. I am always friendly and polite to everyone I know. The sad part is people are still mean to me regardless of that. Sometimes, they make fun me and it hurts really badly :(. I feel so upset that I considered these girls my close friends. It really fills me with sadness. I don't know how to get over it and I don't know how to tell them how I feel. I don't even know how to deal with people like this, especially the ones I don't know. I cry everyday just thinking about this situation and I feel like the tears are never ending! Help!
Why are people so mean and rude to cashiers?
I've been working as a cashier for 2 months now and I can't believe how mean people can be. Yestreday I felt like quitting because it was one of those days where everything goes wrong. I always try to be nice to people not because it's my job but because it's the right thing to do. One lady was talking on the phone the whole time and when I told her her total she kept looking at me and talking on the phone and after 5 minutes she had the nerve to tell the person on the phone "I didn't hear her say anything, she has a soft voice" like I was not there. The assistant manager was right there bagging her stuff and didn't say anything. I know they have to respect the customer but usually the customers don't respect anyone. I hate when people put their baskets on the belt and expect me to take their stuff out. People will argue with me over it like it's my job to do it. Even though there are moments when I feel like crying I still love my job.
