How I Became A Bully After Being Bullied Myself

Three years ago, I was bullying this kid Kyle. He was really annoying and was constantly pushing my buttons. But one day I took things way too far and now I feel horrible about it.

Don't try and justify being a bully saying "cause I was bullied". Everyone, everyone ever was bullied by someone, family, friends etc. What you choose to do makes you the person you are, we are our choices after all. And doesn't matter how or why, at the end, you are a bully cause you chose to be one.

It's not justification, but it is an explanation. It's a vicious cycle and it needs to be cut off at its core.

Bullying is like a zombie bite. When someone bullies a person, they carry it onto someone else. I saw this happening a lot in middle school. I hated that time of my life.
