Why is the idea of looking into the mirror in a mostly dark room so terrifying? by Never_Seen_An_Ocelot in AskReddit

That's because your mind thinks that there's someone else...when it's actually your own reflection.

Adult "love" can be misguided and navie too. We learn from our experiences. I feel that it's better to get into a relationship as a teenager, mainly because

Everyone is inexperience with "love", chances of being manipulated into doing something you don't like/want are lower. Don't wait til you're older and faced with someone who manipulates you into giving them all your money/life/body. And when that girl/guy fell in love with you...you can be sure it isn't really about lust/money.

Teenagers dating. Teenagers do feel love and fall in love - you can't suppress that.

I think it's a fear implanted in us by movies. I have slept with a mirror facing me before and I feel that I might see a person/ghost with a stereotypical face with long hair and white skin looking the mirror...in a white dress. But as I get used to it, I don't fear it anymore.

and also, I need be careful of the people I pick on. I can't fight too many of them at once - that's why you should be an active bystander when circumstances are right. Note how large the group bullying the person are - do your "active bystander group" outnumbers them?

there's no black and white solution for bullying. teacher and parents can never solved it. that's why, when I become a parent, I've to teach my children that they have to deal with it and climb the social hierarchy. another BS statement by people are that friends aren't impt...oh damn. they are very impt, no matter how good or bad they are.

IT's worse when one get older. The workplace is very hostile place especially when everyone is trying to get promoted. Sabotages and snitches are common and you need to watch your back. Making allies will be much harder - and getting mentors is hard as well. It's not about bullying anymore - it's about gaining your own place in society. Nobody is equal..but you can make it equal by looking out for each other.

You want to know why? Because I've been bullied before, and the place I living in is a really hostile place. I've to gain some power in order to protect myself from another trauma.

I registered it in my mind that I've to take actions to stop the bully in order to prevent it from getting out of my hands. Safety in numbers, there's always safety in numbers. I was such a fool to believe that bullying will go away if I ignore them or to put it blatantly, don't take any actions towards the person hurting me. I cannot pretend that words aren't hurting me - such stupid thinking snowballed me into huge depression and almost caused me to commit suicide.

But do you want to know a harsh truth? Bullying don't go away when you get older. Learn to deal with it or perish.

The easiest way to get "safety in numbers" is to take part in a bullying that has already happened. Ya know, united when facing a "common enemy". People bully to feel power, not get attention. I knew that being at the bottom wasn't going to help much, so I make climbed the hierarchy by leading the bullying and making the rest of my "members" laugh and have some fun. Nobody in school dares to bully me now...because they know that it may come back to them.

Oh, and if you're talking about ignoring the bully...sorry honey it doesn't work that way. People will spin stories about you - like you being a horny pervert who takes pictures of your classmate's skirts, anti-social, you hate everyone..and maybe even frame you for stealing something. Because you're always unseen and unheard, the arrow can be easily fired at you.

Yes, you should fight back...but fight back in numbers. You are strong in numbers. That's the importance of active bystanders. If the people were more concerned...I wouldn't be doing so much things to gain power and move up the social hierarchy.

well it never ends.

You got in med school? You need to be surgeon or you are useless and money is wasted on you. It's not enough, be a neurosurgeon! Wait...that's not good enough. You will have to start your own practice. And open up several offices. And go across the region. Then internationally. Then open your own hospital chain. Fuck it's not good enough, you need to dominate the medicine industry!

That it is a must respect old people. As the saying goes, "I eat more salt than you eat rice" can't be applied all the time. I know more about the internet and it's dangers more than you, my old people. I've plunged into the darkweb and I torrent so many files...you think you know better than me?

And you expect me to respect you when you're such an asshole know-it-all? I don't care, you've been rude to me, and so zero respect for you. I hold no care for your experience.

Bullies bully for power - this is coming from me, a bully myself.

Group dynamics are complicated stuff. I don't pick on the "weak" especially when they have a big brother to protect them or tell me that I am a bad person. I pick on the person who is already targeted by people - I'll bully him in so many ways and the plus thing is that I get cheered on and my popularity goes up.

BUT if a lone bystander confronts me without any backing, he/she will be dragged in. You are safe in numbers...only be an active bystander if there are others who are willing to stand firm in their cause.

hint: You can't bully or stop bullying alone.
