Middle school sucks! (Thankfully it’s over)

Anonymous

I have been bullied since fourth grade, but it didn’t really bother me until middle school. My friends and I were getting bullied by two different groups of girls; girls who were popular and girls who wanted to be popular. The girls who wanted to be popular started bullying my friend and I in aftercare (6th grade). They were cutting us in line one day and we got upset and from then on they treated us rudely. They took our spot we always sat at, always were competitive with everything, laughed at us over EVERYTHING (once my sweater was inside out and they all started laughing at me), and constantly called my friend stupid (She had it worse). One day they kept asking my friend “how do I use my phone” and one girl kept giving my friend her phone. I told my friend they were laughing at her and setting her up (She some how didn’t even notice??) And she threw the girl’s phone on the floor. The next day we all were yelling at each other and after that they stopped messing with us. Until 7th grade, But I begged my parents to let me walk home to avoid all of that. Now to the popular girls who bullied me. It started in 6th grade and I honestly don’t remember how it started. They were just always mean to my friends and I. They just always laughed at how we looked and treated us like dirt. The “main popular girl” stole my friend’s lock and my friend got it back and didn’t even tell the coach who stole it when the coach asked! (It was one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve had). One time they went through my binder and ripped out my comic page I drew. Another time the main popular girl sat next to me on a bench and said in a sarcastic tone “hey best friend” and started talking to me so I got up and walked away and it was hilarious how the girl and her friends got mad.  I said nothing because what they were didn’t upset me, it was just that they were trying to make me feel bad when they are supposed to be my friends. Middle school was the worst time of my life and sometimes I wish I can go back and say something. I’m going into 10th grade by the way. High school is much better and it’s probably because I went to a school in different area. I don’t know if all kids are like how they were in middle but I think it may have to do with the area I am in. My brother is being treated badly and can’t wait to leave middle school. Girls can be so mean to each other and it’s just them being insecure and I wish my friends would realize that so they can know there is nothing wrong with them. But I am getting better and ever since I have moved to a new school i have gotten a lot better! Moving to a new school really helps and so does say something 🙂
