To surround yourself with people who love you, get rid of the negativity that is thrown at you. Remind yourself that the words that were shared are not true, and that you are an amazing person!

Hearing someone call you a nasty name can have a devastating effect; however, it does not have to if you: 1) realize that every time you bring the thought to mind, you are allowing that person to have control over you and 2) realize that your self-worth is not in what someone else says about you.

Let it slide. They are not worth your time, and you are so much more than a combination of letters. It is up to you what the definition of the word is. You define yourself and your labels, not someone else.

Realize that you are not the names that they are calling you by finding contradictory facts for the names given. As an example, if someone calls you a slut, then look up for what the word means (I.e., a person that sleeps with many people at the same time). Then compare and see if you are what they are calling you. Most of the time, it wouldn't be true so then don't internalize and let what they are calling you affect yourself

Make an effort to feel good about yourself and don't allow them to bring you down. If you get called that name for something about your body, appearance or similar, the effort you have to make here is getting comfortable with yourself and being proud of yourself no matter what others call you. Don't hide and don't be ashamed- you make it easier for them to bring you down If you believe these people.

What you need to keep in mind is that the person who is bullying you most probably is going through a hard time, and doesn't know how to deal with it, so they take it out on other people. What you need to do is be the bigger person and not let it get to you. Hey, if you know you're not a "cheesehead" then why do you let it hurt you? Be confident, love yourself, and always smile. :)

You should confront them. Even it's a friend who does that you should tell them to stop. Put your emotional health over other people's amusement.

Ignore them. Evict them: do not allow them to rent space in your head. Understand that they speak from a place that may have nothing at all to do with you. They may in fact be projecting what they fear they are. Do not waste time or energy on people who want to pull you down.

A person calling you names is flat out trying to be hurtful to you, which reflects badly on them more than anything. Remind yourself that they don't even care if what they're saying is true as much as whether or not they can hurt you. If you're being insulted in a professional setting or by someone in an official capacity, think about making an official complaint - you don't have to accept being bullied.

Realize that you're a human being. People will walk over you and treat you with disrespect just to see you get mad. Don't get sad because someone called you a name, you're beautiful and you should be happy.

The best thing to do is ignore them and do not believe it. What they're saying is probably because they're jealous.

The best way to get over someone calling you nasty names is to void those names from their power. You can't control what other people say, but you can control how their words affect you. Remind yourself that you are important and loved.

Ignore them, you do not need their negativity in your life. In a few weeks, months, and years, these little words won't matter one bit. It may hurt now, but just lift your head up and walk right past them, like the amazing person you are. They'll realize this.

Realize that they must be very insecure to have to resort to belittling others. Also realize that you are unique, and that is an amazing thing.

I can't speak for others, but I reply to them with the same thing, I feel better and move on.Or, you can show you are better than them by choosing to ignore them when they talk.Pretend to talk about something else, or simply leave.

Ignore them, or kill them with kindness, show them it doesn't bother you. The more you do that, the more it drives them insane until they eventually quit. If it's through social forms, just block them on all platforms, you don't need to tolerate it.
