What if they call you names?

Having managed to abstract from what is happening in this way, you can calmly look around without experiencing strong emotions.

  • Laugh at yourself with everyone. This style of behavior can be used if the nicknames reflect the objective state of affairs. Undoubtedly, it is difficult for a well-fed child to deal with the fact that he is "fat", and a person with poor eyesight will have to put up with the nickname "bespectacled". So why deny the obvious? It is much easier to translate a disadvantage into the category of its own characteristics, agreeing with the opinion of the majority.
  • Change the attitude towards what is happening, replacing any feelings with indifference. Moreover, the boredom on the face of the "victim" should be sincere and good-natured. The difficulty of this method is that you will have to constantly ignore the comments until the offenders get tired of bumping into the wall. After all, they will not give up their venture overnight, but the intensity of their "swoops" will gradually fade away.
  • The least effective way to resolve the situation can be called attempts to find protection from the stronger: teachers, parents, bosses, etc. Such actions will certainly be regarded as a demonstration of complete helplessness. In addition, such behavior will finally ruin the reputation of an outcast, turning him into a sneak.

    Anyone can become the object of constant ridicule. After all, they all have certain characteristics that distinguish them from the background of the rest of the team members. But how to perceive such attacks - whether to take offense at bully or turn their words into a guide to self-improvement - everyone decides for himself.
