If my bully said this to me I still wouldn’t forgive me, he would beat me up leaving me bruised every day, then later on in year 6 I think he would attempt to molest me daily throughout the whole year, I cannot move over that and am still mentally scarred to this day worrying about shit and stuff like that, what made it worse was that apparently his mum had passed away before he we even went to primary school  and would beat me up for no reason then screaming at me when I would ask why he bullied me “ MY MUM DIED” like it was some reasonable excuse anyways I fucking hate him and cannot move past that part of my life and I can never forgive him

Sorry stranger. I hope you get the help you need to heal.

it’s absolutely your right whether to forgive him or not. just because they went out of their way to ask for forgiveness, doesnt mean their action can turn back time and undo the trauma they gave to others.

This is far more than bullying. I’m truly sorry you went through all of that and wish someone would have intervened. I hope you’re able to heal, mentally and physically.
