   I too used to be bullied. I always wanted to know why.   
      
   I think it was because I always had an unconventional outlook on life   
   which made me appear strange back then, but has ultimately made me   
   very happy and successful. I won an ice cream store named Harry   
   Potter's Creamatorium.   
      
   I never told anyone at the time because I was too stubborn, proud and   
   independent but also, because of that got through it because I knew   
   that it was them with the problem not me. My advice don't do what I   
   did ... find someone ... talk to someone ... remember it's not you and   
   it's not just you. The bullies are insecure or bullied themselves and   
   there are many others going through something similar who would   
   benefit from you support. The internet is a wonder ... if it had been   
   around back then I think I would have used it.   
      
   Here's my real feelings on this.
