“I Don’t Regret That”: 44 Times People Made Their Bullies Feel Sorry For Their Actions

He paid for things at a business I worked at with two fake $20 bills, the stupid a*s even used his account with his phone number and address where he lived at home with his parents still. I willingly took the $40, and told my manager right away. The manager called his house and his dad answered the phone and my boss told him “so-and-so, your son, paid for items at our store with fake money. Could we speak with him?” then my boss told him he’d better be at our store one hour before opening with two real 20 bills. Guy shows up while I’m waiting within eyeshot of the store, then my boss shows up a few minutes later with 3 cop cars following. Dude went to jail, his c*****d out GF was trying to yell at the cops that he didn’t know (he did know and was MAKING fake bills as a side hustle) and they told her she’d be arrested too for interfering with a case or something like that and she backed off. Turns out, he was selling lots of d***s, making counterfeit bills, and the idiot was going to the grocery store across the street and getting change with the fake $20s for a few weeks and had already tipped the cops off that someone was passing counterfeits in the area.

Dude was one of my best friends on my competitive basketball team for years, and once we got into Jr. High he started having his friend beat me up/ rough me up daily for no reason. They all talked smack to me for not making the team either. 2 years of this in Jr. High and verbal bullying through high school. So glad that dude went to jail.

I played the long con. I worked my a*s off to improve myself, get good qualifications and lose a tonne of weight. Now when they see me in the street they can't bear to look me in the eye.

I live for it in a small spiteful way that doesn't behoove a lady but I don't care. F**k 'em.

I got suspended.

Apparently when I get beat up, the coach "didn't see anything."

But every time I fought back, the coach noticed immediately and zero tolerance applied.

Not really revenge but Im a CO and a kid that used to give me a hard time in middle school ended up being an inmate in the jail I work at on the housing unit Im on. never took any revenge action because Im an adult now and that was so long ago but I just thought it was funny lol.

I didn’t realize size mattered more than age then figured it out one day and wasn’t scared anymore and beat the s**t out of him. It was like 7th grade and I was a foot taller than him and was scared because I thought magically he would whip my a*s because he was in 8th grade. It’s actually pretty funny looking back I was like a German Shepard who was afraid of a chihuahua.

One of their minions went to the same college as me. the minion was 2 years younger than me and saw me and tried to play friendly by catching up, but eventually asked me if I could buy him and his friends beer, i said no. 


another one a few years later applied for a job at my company, his resume went into the garbage. tbf i didn't think my boss would have wanted to interview him anyway. .

In first year of highschool, this sophomore bullied me continuously. Funny thing was this bully was being bullied by a senior in our school. I became friends with him during a class and we were tight. One day in between classes, the bully shoves me making me drop my books and binder. The senior see it across the hall, comes over and beats the s**t out of him. He never touched me again. The enemy of my enemy is my friend was true.

Picked up and threw him into a locker. Left a dent in the locker. Not a lot of people messed with me after that.

He told me to punch him in the shoulder to prove how weak I was so I punched him the head and tripped him when he stumbled back.

Well i was bullied in elementery school because i was the nerd of class and pretty sensitive.

the guy that bullied me s**t his pants in summer camp while everyone was around him

Eventually I told some people in middle school and someone mentioned it in front of him he became so red as a tomato

A girl that bullied me in middle school friend requested me on Facebook 13 years later and I hit “ignore”.

I saw him on a bus 10years after highschool... looked dirty and badly dressed, probably havent ate in a while and used d***s... still he looked at me and smile with the same evil smile he had at school... This time I had that smile too, my life was not perfect, but I had a job, a roof over my head, I was healthy and well fed... He stopped smiling when he noticed my smile... FU.

Found out at our 20 year reunion that the bloke who used to bully me got both his legs blown off in iraq

karmic payback I guess

the bloke is still a d**k today btw.

I was bullied by the same person for most of my school years, thinking about 5 years old until 13. I didn't know better and I always let it happen. That being said, I was afraid no matter what going to school because of him (and some other guys but they weren't SO bothersome).

He was a bully in every typical way. Pulling down pants, always bothering you in a bad way, pushing and punching when things didn't go his way, etc etc. I recall him even trying to attack me outside of school with a crowbar.


Fast forward to my last year in that particular school, as I was moving back to my home country.. I vividly remember him throwing basketball balls very hard to my back for 30 minutes straight during lunch break.

Safe to say I completely lost it that time, so much pent up anger from all these years and I clearly wasn't thinking straight. I ran straight to him, screaming and cursing the worst things for him and his family. I pinned him down and smashed his face, specifically around the cheeks a couple times until one of the professors (who I was good friends with and I still appreciate him 'till this day) stopped me. I remember him telling me he was surprised to see me behave this way, as he also struggled to pull me back when I was hurting the bully.

He brought me to the bathroom to calm me down and ask what happened. I was lucky he and I were on super good terms, that he understood it wasn't completely my fault and just wanted to hear my story. Nothing bad came of it for me, and I spent the last few months at the school in peace.

The bully never interacted with me again, until the very last day where he apologized for his behaviour and I apologized for hurting him. So I guess in some way it ended on good terms?


One of my best friends still live around the area, and he mentioned his behaviour hasn't really changed at all and still acts like an idiot. But that was years ago, so I have no idea how he is doing now.

I don't fully blame him for acting the way he does, his father in prison and I believe his mother neglected him often. Because I saw him more often on the streets than at home. But, I am glad that whole ordeal is behind me now!

I was okey at economics. My bully asked if she could cheat off me 15 min before the exam. I said sure. The thing she didn’t know was that I got extra time on exams. So I answered every multiple choice question wrong. Then wrote some open questions wrong. Then I realised that I wouldn’t have enough time to fix my answers. So I flipped threw the remainder of the exam randomly, so she didn’t know what question I was answering. Then she had to leave and I fixed the wrong answers. She got a 4/10.

At my high school 10 year reunion, my bully sat down and had a smoke with me and apologised and added - you are so much nicer now. Wtaf!

I didn’t forgive him. F*ck that c*nt - he ruined me, my self esteem.

I occasionally check in on them through facebook when i want to feel better about myself.

Some people peak in highschool.

I was bullied when I was in the 7th grade buy a guy who was in the 9th grade. I have no idea why I was his target as I had never seen him before that.

Fast forward a few years and while I didn't grow much taller, I did gain muscle mass. I was ranked in my state for wrestling and I was a stud athletically. I finally saw him at the county fair and he was with his girlfriend. Needless to say I had the biggest smile on my face as his girl started hitting on me. He would not even meet me eye to eye.

I snapped, literally picked him up and threw him multiple times around the school canteen while his 'crew' watched in awe! He actually started crying and begged me to stop saying he'd had enough. I hadn't and continued to change the course of his day until a teacher hauled me off him. He left the year after and his friends seemed to give me a wide berth.

He tried to bully another kid, tripped & broke his ankle. This was 6 weeks before him graduating. My brother knew of him bullying me & we concocted a plan. We stole his crutches during the ceremony. His name was called .... he's sitting all alone, no crutches. He didn't get to walk.
