Bullies will pick on anyone who doesn't join them. However, joining them is not the way to go. They will target you if you are peaceful and kind because they are jealous. They wish that they had your kindness because people want to be friends with others who are kind, not with a bully. They are most likely dealing with problems of their own and they don't know how to cope with the issues, so they take it out on others. But never give in, hatefulness will get you nowhere.

it takes a courageous and strong spirit to stand up to a bully. the bully counts on your lack of ability to remain separate from His or her emotional tantrum. showing the bully that you are not willing to get sucked in challenges everything the bully believes about him or herself. the best thing to do when dealing with a bully is to make it clear that you will not in any way accept the abuse and that if challenged, you will immediately involve those in a position of authority and or, if not possible, defend yourself in the least confrontational way possible. do not argue with the bully and do NOT bargain. stand your ground if all else fails and by all means, do not allow yourself to be emotionally wounded in the process. if a beagle can stand up to a pit bulll with a bit of a stare down, so can you! (Eeeek! I have seen that happen)!!

Because they expect a victim to be afraid of them and do whatever they want. They want to feel like they has power over somebody.

Bullies tend to become more aggressive when you show them you just want peace because they are not getting the reaction that they were hoping to get from you. They want you upset and crying to them, not asking for peace and so they feel like their fun is all messed up when you say you just want peace.

Bullies will pick on those that they believe to be weak and it's usually to show their dominance. This can be for many reasons including, but not limited to; showing off, making themselves feel better about their own problems, taking their anger out on someone who looks like or acts like the person that they may be bullied by or simply because they're not a nice person. A bully will usually go round in a big group of people because on their own, they know there's a chance that someone will stand up to them and therefore, they will see their true colours but if they're in a big group, they know that the person they're terrorizing will be too worried about what their friends would do to them also.

Bullies tend to become more aggressive when you show them you just want peace because that is exactly what they don't want you to have. They don't feel at peace with themselves, so they don't want to let other feel at peace with themselves either.

Bullies tend to get aggressive when they are told you want peace because the bullies only ever want to get a reaction.if you try to take that they only push harder but will ALWAYS give up because when they can't get a reaction they like they will pack up and leave you

They get more aggressive when you show them more peace because they aren't getting the reaction they want to get out of you. Most people who bully are usually doing it because they feel lowly about themselves and they seek validation in making you feel a certain way, so going against what they are trying to achieve stimulates them in a negative way thus causing them to act in a more aggressive manner... it's a sad reality. Most people who bully are going through something that they aren't sure how to talk about or they aren't sure how to express themselves. If you are being bullied, remember to talk to someone.

Well, they think that is weak. Sometimes, it is best to just ignore them or stand up for yourself in a different way.

Because they want some fun and want to make fun of you and they think its an easy work more when you ask for peace.
