Should I change the way I act or dress to avoid being bullied?

Not at all! Bullying is a result of other people's insecurities! Why does that mean you should feel bad about it?

You should always be able to be yourself and you shouldn't have to change who you are in order for people to respect you and treat you as an equal.

You should never change the way you look or act just to avoid being bullied. I personally think that the way you act and or dress makes you who you are. Why should you change who you are for someone else's approval or just so that they wouldn't bully you anymore? If the bullies are bullying you for how you act or dress, this shows that they don't have an form of maturity to think about their actions.

No. You DO NOT have to change yourself just because others do not approve. They wouldn't care anyway. All you have to do is be Brave, Courageous and Stand up for yourself. Better tell the higher authorities. Just because they threaten you doesn't mean you are going to abide by them (Bullies). It's you who should be willing to help yourself :) That's when bullying stops.

Oftentimes we feel like we need to appease everyone, and look a certain way. Bullies like to pick on us for many different reasons: how we dress, how we look, how we sound. My point is that you should not change yourself just to avoid being bullied. Being bullied is tough I know because I'm physically disabled, I got stared at a lot over the years. The question is not "should you" but "why should you have to?" The way you dress is a extension of you if you close an extension. How will they know you? :-) Please be yourself!

No. Changing yourself will only create negative feelings for you. It will make the bullies leave you alone for a little bit, but the bullies will return. Remember a bully is someone who is hurt and broken, they don't want to be fixed they just want everyone else to be broken.

No, you are who you are. You can't change that. Try to ignore anyone who thinks you have a bad style or way of dressing and point out that's their opinion, not yours.

No! You have to be comfortable with who you are. If you let this bully change you know then you will change for people your entire life. Stand up and be yourself!

You should not have to change your self just because your being bullied, That is the one thing i have learnt, Its a harsh lesson, but stick true to yourself, I dressed differently and acted differently which in result ended up with bulling, I'm out of school for 2 years now and i see those whom bullied me , They pass no remark or say nothing, Because my life has nothing to do with them anymore, They grow out of it, When you are young you are finding out who you are, They are doing the same, just don't let them kick you down
