How do I overcome the fear of being near my bully?

Well, you know, sometimes we fear people because we're afraid of what we think that they can do to us, but hey, they're nothing but another person in this big, big world. They will be around you for some years, it's true, but they don't have any right over you! If you fear them, you are giving them power over you. Do not fear the bully (don't call him/her YOUR bully), you have a lot of people in your favour, I'm pretty sure that he/she has a lot more to fear if he try to touch you. You are NOT alone. And you are strong! Fuck bullies!

You hold your head up, walk as if you own the place and show the 'bully' that what he or she says means nothing. They'll burn by this and well, your fear will be all gone too.

Be brave and be cool. Don't let the bullies take control of you. You live for your life. Your life is yours. Be good person, don't need to think about the people who don't like you. Do whatever you want, don't let them steal your happiness. Speak up. Show that you're a strong person. Be hopeful.

It's hard to face your fears, in this case your bully. However, the more you face this person, the easier it gets. Force yourself to keep your head high, your shoulders back and walk right on by like you couldn't care less. The more you do it, the easier it gets.

Your bully is no doubt a typical bully. A person who's been through, and possibly still going through, some rough stuff of their own. I once had the same problem. Infact it was almost like being in the mean girl movie. One minute we're friends and the next we grew apart and she became my bully. She was the popular one and I hung out with the alternative kids (Goths, neds, smarts etc...) Anyway my point is I learned to stand up to her because I realised just how weak she was in the end. I didn't bully her back but I made sure she knew she'd never make me feel weak and less than human ever again. Soon she backed off, and I was told several years later that her mother slept around and took drugs etc... So really you never know what's going on in the other persons life. Noone has the right to make anyone else feel inferior, but all you do is ignore them and walk away. Eventually they'll give up. Just be patient :) Good luck

Think of the bully as a regular person and try to ignore the bully as hard as you can and make sure that if the bully talks to you, get up and go somewhere else to avoid bad words from them

You have to be true to who you are, and be confident in yourself. Prove that you are happy with where and who you are

Remind yourself that you deserve something better than that and make sure you have the gut to stand against his/her stupidity.

i came over my bullying by letting the people who love and care for me all you need to do is talk to people and the people who love you and care for you let them in and help you

Find a friend or mentor to come with you near the bully. Stand up for yourself when facing them. Remember to be strong you lovely person.
