I was a bully . The past keeps haunting me even though I apologized. What should I do?

You need to learn to forgive and forget the person you once were. You obviously feel bad as you've said sorry and want to change. Not everyones perfect and sometimes we do things we regret later on. You just have to learn to live through it and realise that your not perfect.

If you have asked frogiveness from them for what you did, the next thing is to ask forgiveness from yourself. If you are truly sorry for what you did, then over time you will be able to let it go.

Not sure that you can prevent the past from haunting you. Just like you can't alter the past itself, because what has been done has been done and can not be undone. We often, at one point or another, want to go back and redo things. But we can't and it is better to attempt to try and move forward into the future, rather than stay stuck and overthink the past. You have apologized, right? By doing that, you show true remorse and also show that you have matured from it. As long as you have learned from your mistake, and do not repeat it - Then, that's the only thing that you can do. The feelings of guilt will live with you, regardless of how much you try to forget about them. Just be strong enough to endure them, and look past them! Hope this helps.

Perhaps you could try to reconnect with the person or people you bullied in some way. Have a serious conversation about things, and perhaps even do something small, like sending them some flowers.

You have noticed how bad bullying is,you do regret your behaviour and apologized which you should be proud of yourself because you have taken the right step. Now you have to learn how to forgive yourself and show to everyone that you are completely a new loving,caring,and compassionate soul. You are not the same person as a bully you used to be. Past is past,you can't change it,what you can do is learn from it and make the future better.

have you talked to someone about it? try and remember that what happened in the past is done and over with. dont stress it. you have apologized and thats amazing. most people dont even do that! keep your head up!

you apologised, which is more than atone can ask. you can't change the past and you shouldn't feel guilty, we all bully in one way or another. you are a good person, your past can't define you.

That is a hard situation, I'm very sorry you've found yourself in it. Sometimes our past grips us like a vice and wont let go for anything. The thing is, we've all done things in the past that we're less than proud of. When I was younger I acted very stupid and did things that I'm still trying to work past. The fact is, you're trying to be a better person now, and that is wonderful. You can't undo the past, but you can be a better you and make the future great! Good luck! I believe in you!

I'm glad you apologized, but I regret to inform you that that is not enough. You need to be super nice to this kid that you bullied. I was bullied and I would never wish that kind of pain on anyone else. Offer to help and be kind to the person whenever time permits, and if time does not permit go out of your way. If you do this, hopefully all will be well again.

First, be proud of yourself for changing. It's not easy to admit that you bullied someone or to stop once you start. And it takes a lot of courage to try to make up for past bullying behavior.
