If the counselor knows you need help, they will see to it that you do get your help and your bully will get what he deserves.

meh... it doesnt hurt much psychologically. i take solace in the fact that they only make fun of me because they're not satisfied with something in their own life or they're just immature. once again, it's more the human condition question that scares me... WHY people have to do this, and can't just try to be better than whoever or whatever their own tormentor is. anyway, thanks for your help you guys. it reaffirms my position that they're just a bunch of jerks. however, im gonna stick with my philosophy of attempting to be peaceful.
thanks again!

Who says my ways aren't peaceful? If you continue to let them bully you around, just as Hraes said, you're going to turn into a ticking time bomb and pull a 2009 columbine massacre (no offense). Just tell your school counselor and I'm sure they'll tell the administration or something. If you dont want to go that way, ask your parent's what they would do and they might help you think of a way to deal with it.

no, not your ways, but some of the earlier posts... and no, i stated before, i wouldnt do anything like columbine. and i've talked to people. im fine, trust me, im not that kind of person... i honestly dont care what they say. all that was really confusing me was the reasoning behind it. but i think i have a better understanding of it. i talked to my parents about it, and they dealt with it accordingly by contacting the teacher in the period.
but seriously, don't worry about me being a timebomb. i get bullied, but i'm not that kinda person. i know that kinda thing is never the situation. i have plenty of things to live for. Music, my girlfriend, my family... i'm happy in life. and i usually get over it within a few minutes or so after it happens. i thought it was a worthy discussion to have.

i think it wouldnt bother me as much if i understood why they can't just go away and let me be.

I don't think you have to do any of those things. In fact, I think that just makes it worse. What they want is the satisfaction of a response.
The best thing you can do is to ignore them.

It almost sounds as if you are looking for the meaning of life here.
Honestly, I suspect you have read the Bible, think about it - there were people who were bullies even in biblical times. They were around when I was a kid and they are still around today. It is the nature of the human race.
Prepare yourself, even as an adult you will find a comparable in the work environment - those people who, while they can't push your face into the water at the drinking fountain, can and will exaggerate (some will outright lie) issues to make you look bad in an attempt to make themselves look better.
Best course of action is to avoid them all as much as possible and (as lightningmystix suggested) excel in all your endeavors as much as possible and you can and will be a better person than they are throughout life.
I am not going to say use words or physical actions. You could try fists or words, but in the end, they don't go away. Just accept that they have always been around and always will be around and avoidance is the easiest road. If there is a particular situation or person who poses a dangerous physical threat, then you need to involve your parents and the school officials.
And for the record, I have addressed these situations with all three, fists, words and avoidance. I used fists 15%, words 50% & avoidance 35% (these are just rough estimates). Sometimes they are just hard to avoid.

good point. i refuse to use fists, but if i could make a comeback fast enough i would. i think i'll attempt the ignoring strategy.
and as for danger, it's nothing like that, im not getting beaten up all the time, just pushed around sometimes and made fun of alot.

This isn't about bullying in Fiesta. This is about bullying in real life.

Don't forget karma!
I remember in Middle school, there was this one chick, ugh, she was a b*tch. No other way to describe her, thats how she was. She thought she was better than everyone, and if you bumped into her in the hall, it was you who should have been watching where she was walking. She once got into a fight with a girl over that x.x the girl didn't just take it though, the girl yelled at her right back, and yeah, it got physical. Anywho....
That girl didn't make it past 10th grade.
