am I a bad person?
Two years ago, I had some troubles in school because of a classmate bully. He never harmed me directly, but he would make jokes about my clothing and my shoes. It was kind of his job to tell these jokes because he was the class clown. Those jokes, though, made me uncomfortable. I attempted to make fun of him to help him understand what it feels like, but all he did was ignore me and act as if I didn't exist. So I made the decision to get back at him by becoming closer to him until I became someone he cared about, and then I would distance myself from him. I tried to be friends with him for a while, until we became best friends. He assumed I had a crush on him for some reason, and his friends would tease him about us being a couple even though we were not. After we became friends and I realized how significant I had become to him, I realized that maintaining our friendship was meaningless because my goal was only to make him regret making fun of me and turning my school days into misery. I started to talk less with him. He became quite upset about it and attempted to keep us from drifting apart, but he was unsuccessful. We don't talk as much anymore. I can't help but think, Am I bad for doing this? Should I have forgotten about the past and kept being friends? I feel guilty every time I think about it. Thank you for reading, and please let me hear your opinion.

Youre not a bad person for doing this but you sure arent nice or kind for that. Its good to feel guilty about it, shows that you know it was wrong and while guilt solves nothing, you'...... 2 reply
Tbh I feel like this is subjective (and very dependent on further context that only u have) and some ppl are gonna say (or think) yes that’s bad, whereas others will say no and that he got what he deserved. Fuck around and find out, yk. I think the fact u feel guilty abt it means u already know ur personal answer to this (you’re feeling like yo...... reply
You could have chosen to tell him to stop directly. If he decided to ignore and made fun of you despite that, then you wanting to get back at him is valid.
From the sound of it, it did seem like you were good friends for a while. And while you were friends, you could have brought it up at any point and let him know how bad you felt when he made fu...... 1 reply
Not quite as spiteful a revenge as the guy who fucked his bully’s mom, but it’s some high level spite.
I just don’t see why you would waste so much of your life with someone you don’t like just for petty revenge.
You may want to get some therapy, seriously. That was an over investment of yourself and he learned nothing other than you ar...... 1 reply
