This is a hard one.. As human beings, it’s natural to worry about what others think, and when we know what it is, whether it’s good or not, it’s easy to believe them. But know this: Often, when people laugh at you, those are people who are hurting deeply and are insecure in themselves. They use bullying/rudeness as a coping mechanism. If you think about that the next time someone laughs at you, it should be easier to at least attempt to avoid/ignore them. However, if it’s a continuing issue, then you might want to consult a parent/other trusted adult for guidance and advice.

My friend, I tell you. I feel that you shouldn't take it seriously. The best way to get over it is by ignoring. Do not give them the feeling that it bothers you. Let them laugh until they get exhausted. You can question them if you want to know what made them laugh at you. Reply with a smile and move on. Do not think about it at all. Leave it at that very moment. If you have to say something. Just reply saying - I'm glad/happy that made you laugh at me. Finally, Ignoring is the key to handle any situation. I believe it helps you!

People who laugh at you are often weak to face their real problems and combat the feeling of not being aware of their own state of mind. Those people are probably in need of a good life-advisor, but without the self-consciousness to admit it. There is nothing to get over, because these people are not for you. You have to carry on without worrying that someone sooner or later is going to make fun of you. Especially if they are not so important to you - giving meaning to your life. If you are experiencing any kind of bullying. ...Be brave.

I just say to myself "Your opinions don't matter to me. I believe in myself. I love myself and your opinions are not worth a dime to me." Just ignore them and know that if you work hard and you overcome them, you might someday be higher up than them and then you will be the one laughing. Just know that karma will bite them in the bum at the worst time that it could. Laughing at people won't get them anywhere but the bottom of the world. People need to be careful about just who they laugh at.

I can personally relate to the issue you are currently facing right now, and honestly, it would be very very hard not to think and feel that people are laughing at you especially when they find you different as an individual. But what I can advise you is, please remember that their actions and beliefs do not reflect your character and worth for this reflects them. Additionally, these people who makes fun of you by laughing, I'm assuming are individuals that does not know you fully which means that you don't have to validate their opinions towards you. Please be yourself at all times and I truly believe that the best revenge for them is for you to keep on being positive, happy and unbothered by their actions. PERIODT.

I remind myself that they are not laughing at me, they are laughing at the funny situation. They think it's harmless to laugh, so I laugh as well.

I have always been used to people laughing at me because well I am clumsy. I cannot walk straight I am always falling down or breaking things but I always laugh along with them. I could cry or get angry at them but what is the use, besides whenever I do fall or break something I find it funny and laugh before anyone else can :)

You just got to practise your confidence and know that your smarter and better than the person that starts laughing at you, let other people see that your confident too. No one is born dumb and scientists have told us that we are actually ten times prettier than what we see ourselves in the mirror ;)

Well you need to ignore them.. because its certainly not nice to Laugh at someone. Because they have no reason to laugh at You! I had this same situation a couple years back... It was awful, until I had the guts to go up to that person/group and say ¨Why are u laughing at me.. U dont even know me. Just back off¨ and they stopped laughing at me.. and they even apoligized

I laugh it off and pretend it doesn't bother me, so they do not win the battle, or I say something to them and ask for them to please stop. If they don't then I would go to someone else and ask for help, because it is a form of bullying
