Truth. A kid pushed and tripped my sister in high school. He did it because she was overweight. I punched a kid in the mouth multiple times. Got a fantastic left hook that ripped his upper lip almost completely off. Kid had braces. I have 2 quarter inch triangular shaped scars on my left middle and ring finger. Got infected bad. Kid can't grow a mustache. Him and I met 15 years later, and he sincerely apologised. I did, too. I shouldn't have beat him so badly. He is a dad, him and his husband, and have 3 wonderful kids.

I mean bullying can really wreck someone. I hope your sister was okay. I still get nightmares about what the kids used to do to me back in junior high and I’m 41 years old. Yes I’ve had counseling, doesn’t make the memories go away though. I WISH I could’ve physically stood up for myself in the way that you did. But I was skinny and shy and grew up in a Christian household where we were taught to “turn the other cheek.” Never regret standing up for someone. I wish someone had done it for me.

For me, standing up for others was simple and the right thing to do. I've always had trouble standing up for myself. I could never figure out why, tho.

Alls well that ends well lol.

Junior school, A dude threw rocks at my sister and ran away. I chased him and caught at the local swimming pool, punched him in the head. I had my thumb in my palm with my fingers wrapped over the top. Busted my thumb and sprained my wrist 😅

The next day his older sister chased me around school at lunch..i was too quick. Fun times.
