There was a lot of lying though, a lot of bull shitting about drinking and pot and sex, she would use me by pushing me (this was half my fault for ageering to it) to buy things for her, she would constantly imply about how her other friends were better about how i behaved like a "social retard" she would ignor in me school around her other friends. I though she was soo cool. I had trouble getting other people to like me, there are serval reasons why, but i won't go into that. We grew apart when i turned eleven (we were in different classes), i became a loner. When i turned thirteen, fresh into highschool, she was in a lot of the same classes as me and we became "friends" again. There was bullshitting. I got badly bullied, some people called me a loser in front of class and no one did anything, she was in that class and she didn't do anything. i got mad at her after the inccedent and asked her why she didn't help, she basically yelled at me, blaming me for being bullied, the jist of what she said was obvioulsy i was acting weird, i deserved it. It's was like saying when if woman dresses a certain way she deseves to be raped. I felt like ************. I stopped talking. I just stopped.i kept it inside because i was just trying to be big, to move, that's what everyone says you should do, move on. I stayed in school for the rest of that year, running away into washroom so i could cry and really, really hating myself because i had no friends, because i reacted too much and because i was weird.One of the worst things i did was keep in contact with the girl.

I'd say you have been too much of a nice guy so she didn't respect you and, to say it bluntly, exploited you.

When i turned fifteen my mother and i moved. In the new town i thought things would be different but what happened was that i was scared of talking to people, meeting people, i still takled to people and the same thing was happening again, i was being bullied, i quit after two weeks, i became afraid of school. The high of my summer was spent in a mental instatute and interestingly enough, right before i went my mother tried to stage an intervention. Which was stupid because i wasn't on drugs, it was three ************ing days before i left for that stupid insatution place and she got a group of adults together to say, "we care and your mother needs a break from you" three ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ days before. My mom liked to ************ with my mind. This year I'm living with my dad now and it's been better, i still don't talk with people much but i'm okay with spending time alone. I feel like i've missed out on a lot. But what exactly? Now I'm tring to go back to school full time next year but i'm afraid i'm in a cycle, where i attract people to abuse me, both in a board social setting (the bullying) and in "friendships".

Living with your dad now seems to have been a good decision. Judging from what you've said, you've improved because of it.
You got it right that you seem to attract people to abuse you by the way you behave. If you go there expecting to be bullied, you will most likely create the circumstances which will lead to the bullying. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy and I think that's the point where you have to start the change.

What should i do about the people who have bullied me? I know i can move on, but the memories are cemented in my brain and i believe that i can do something, repair, overpower or contact them, to better heal myself, to help break the cycle of victemisation. Do anyone have expirence in this sort of thing that they can share? If you do give me advice, may i ask what you get from it (i don't mean to come off as snarky but it's been my past expirence that i should do as you do not as you say...)

should i write a letter about how they've hurt me? should i play victim or be assertive? should i try to get them to a see a couselor because they obvioulsy have problems...

should i do something really horrible like get naked pictures of them and post them all over the internet?

should i beat the crap out of them?

And what should i do about the basic bullying? Should i role play to be more "normal" and get more positive? Does anyone have any realistic, you can do this at home, advice?

You have a lot of piled-up anger inside you. The first thing I'd recommend is some sort of sports program to get rid of this. Regular exercise will make you more calm and at ease with both yourself and your environment. I

Second, you should work on your attitude, which causes the anger.

This is a bitter pill to swallow, but here you go:

By this I mean that you have to take responsibility for your anger. Other people don't make you angry. You make yourself angry by believing and thinking certain things.

This most likely makes you behave odd in a social setting, making others uncomfortable around you while displaying low status, which in combination is an invitation to be bullied, which causes more anger, and down the spiral you go.

This issue of yours with other people seems to be at the root of your problem.
It's not that girl, not your mom, not the other guys who bullied you.

As I said, it's a bitter pill to swallow. But he who takes the blame for a situation also has the power to change what he has caused.

I'd recommend to make some friends, to join a local club, talk to people. Build social skills deliberately. Read books about it and apply what you learn.

Also, I'd recommend some book by Albert Ellis on Anger (He has written two of them, so I'd recommend reading at least one) and Hauck's "Overcoming the Rating Game" for dealing with your hatred and lack of assertiveness. (Both tested and proven psychology that actually works, and does so pretty quickly)

That should help.

Oh, and don't beat up anyone or post naked pics online.

I've once heard the sentence:

"The best thing about the past is that it's over."

Thinking about it won't change it. All it does is it makes you feel miserable.
By thinking about it all the time, you are reliving the experience over and over and over again. Isn't it enough to be bullied and humiliated once?
Think about it.
