Amethyst: I pledge to try my hardest to better myself and stop hurting everyone who gets close to me. I pledge to show kindness while still being completely honest. I pledge to stop taking every blessing I get for granted. - Lewisburg


Amethyst: I am very sorry for how I treated you. I always took your support and friendship for granted. I've never been the "best firend" I should've. I fear you are gone now, but I still want to say sorry because you are such a wonderful, beautiful person inside and out... So you deserve at least that. - Miranda


Amethyst: My truth is that I have been a bully, but I stopped. A year later, I started being bullied. My friends started leaving, but I made some new ones. My truth is that it benefits neither side, and I know it from experience. I have never been the "prettiest" girl or anything like that, but I'm MYSELF. Most my life, people have alienated me. People came and people went, and they always made me feel like there was something WRONG with me. The truth is I'm SICK of it. I never once acted like somebody I wasn't (I hardly even wear makeup), but now I KNOW that it's 100% okay to be how I am. I can still have my days, but I always try to make ammends in the end. The truth is, I am me. -

Natalie.D (bad at spelling): i am in grade 6. I was feeling really fat and ugly one day and both my mom and i were in a bad mood. She (my mom) accidently, in a way called me fat and said that if i stopped eating crapp (junk food) i would get skinny! I coulden't help not eating crapp! i felt even worse about myself!!! So i decided to stop eating. Not just crapp but everything because i coulden't live with my weight! My sister eventuly found out and tried to get me to start eating. She said that my weight was healthy for my age. she told me i was just commparing myself to all of the girls i know (they are all skinny!) i did not want to hurt myself any more but still wanted to be as skinny as barbie. when i told her this she picked up her computer and showed me a picture of a regular woman with lines on her indicating what she would look like as a barbie. and If Barbie were a real woman, her head would be the same circumference as her waist, meaning she’d have room for only half a liver and a few inches of intestines, (as opposed to the usual 26 feet). The result: chronic diarrhea and death from malabsorption & malnutrition. To look like Barbie proportionally, a healthy woman would need to add 61 cm to her height, subtract 15 cm from her waist, add 13 cm to her chest, and 8 cm to her neck length. Because Barbie’s neck is twice as long as the average human’s, it would be impossible for her to hold up her head. Her legs are 50 percent longer than her arms, (the average woman’s legs are only 20 percent longer than her arms). She’d also have to walk on all fours (her feet are so disproportionately small, her chest would pull her forward onto her toes). she showed me that i was not fat and that i should not be sad about my weight. Besides! i might not be the skinnyest in my class but i am the fastest! >_ -

Rebecca Harder: I pledge to do my best in talking out my fear and anxiety rather than getting flustered and blowing up at people I love. I pledge to deal with fights sooner rather than later. I pledge to try to be the better woman whenever I can. I pledge to give others encouraging words when they need them and to always give out free hugs. I pledge to try to listen without judgement, and to give advise that helps, not hurts. I pledge to follow the "Golden Rule". I understand that I am human and that I am allowed to make mistakes, but I pledge to try to be the best person that I can be. - Austin, TX


Rebecca Harder: Dear Mom, I am sorry that we have had horrible fights. I am sorry that I have walked out on you. I am sorry that I don't always tell you when I am stuck. I am sorry that I am not as well adjusted as I should be. I just want to be your perfect little girl, to make you proud, to show you that I can meet all your expectations. I just get so bogged down in the pressure of life/school/etc. that I am afraid to show you any sign of weakness. I don't want you to think of me as a failure, even when I have made mistakes that I wish I could share with you. I am sorry that we have both said stuff that we didn't mean, but was very hurtful anyway. I am sorry if I every caused you panic, or shame, or pain. I know that we are both in a good spot right now with each other, but I would like to be at the point where we can both share our fears and faults with total confidence in being heard and accepted. I am sorry if I am still a little upset with you about the substance of some of our fights, but I want a clean slate. I want you to be able to truly trust me again, and I want to be able to feel like I can tell you everything, even if some of it might make you worry. I love you. - Nuria Lopez


Rebecca Harder: I am 22 years old. I haven't been in high school for about 4 years now, but I still remember the gossip and the drama, and drama still happens to me and my friends, as it probably always will. I've tried to be drama free and let things go, or I have tried to give people benefit of the doubt, but sometimes things/life/school/etc. get really rough and I have lashed out at people that I really care about. It's just hard to hold in all the fear and anxiety and pressure sometimes. I try to be kind all the time, but the truth is, I am not very kind to myself at all. I put myself down all the time, over-criticize every mistake, kick myself for not being perfect. I have OCD and depression, and I have contemplated suicide many times. I have also done some cutting. I just want to say, try to be kind to others, but also try to be kind to yourself, and don't be afraid to talk/vent to someone when life seems to be too much. -


Paige: Sorry for all the mean things I said. I am so sad I could sing the Dora the explorer theme song. - Kera hicks


Paige Cartwright : 1 day a girl kicked me out of her girls only club. Just because i talked to a boy! I was too scard 2 tell her she was so mean it was scary! Really she never Relished I never cared about her -


Arielle Cohen: I take this pledge quite seriously. Females through out the world need to realize there behavior. We have all done it either by choice or by accident. No matter why or how we need to change it. By taking this pledge, I promise to be conscience of my behavior and apologize immediately to any girl that I commit a girl-on-girl "crime". - Los Angeles


Arielle Cohen : There is not one particular girl I want to apologize to. I think there have been times that I have been mean to a girl and I do not know why. I want to make an effort to be open and kind to any girls I am meeting for the first time. I also want to take this time to apologize for any time I have talked about a girl behind her back, it is not right and no one deserves that kind of the treatment. By saying this apology to any girl I have treated this way I want them to know that I am using this apology to correct my behavior from this day forward. - Any girl I've been mean to


Arielle Cohen: I would never say any girl was out right mean or vicious to me like many girls have experienced. It was more behind my back. I also feel that when you are girl starting at a new school its hard to make friends. Grils are territorial and do not like opening open to new girls that enter into that world. I don't understand why, especially after I joined a sorority. Every sorority I went to during recruitment opened up to me and they had never met me before. Why couldn't girls in high school do the same? -


feather: i sad becaues my bothers -


Britany: To my ex-Sisters: I am sorry that I embarrassed you. I am sorry that I was blinded and unsure of myself. I am sorry that I didn't believe that you could love me for who I really was and thus pretended to be someone else. I am sorry that I wasn't honest. I am sorry for blaming you when so much of the problem was my fault. You are all beautiful women. I honestly hope that you are all just as happy today as I am. - Phi Sig Sisters


Britany: A few days ago, I attended the screening of the Finding Kind documentary in Westminster, Maryland and I was truly moved. I only attended the screening because it was for an assignment for one of my classes at McDaniel College; honestly, I wasn't even sure what the documentary was about. I never expected to be confronted with a story that I have locked away deep within my heart for the past two years. Currently, I am a senior at McDaniel College. Two years ago I was an innocent little sophomore starting my fall semester and really wanting to make some new friends as I was coping with a recent break up. I was living on a "sorority floor" in a dorm and had gotten to know some of the girls from the sorority over the first month or so of the semester. There was another girl on the floor that was not officially a "sister" yet; we decided to go through our campus' "sorority recruitment" process, in hopes of joining the sorority that we were already living with. [In case you're unfamiliar with the "recruitment" process, here's a little background: in order to pledge for a sorority, our campus asks that you get to know all of the sororities on campus before choosing which one you think suits you best. There are three days of "rounds". They start early in the evening and basically the way it works is all of the "potentials" who signed up for recruitment are divided into small groups and they go around and visit each of the sororities. Each round has a different theme and the finale event is "Bid Day" which is when you either get invited ("offered a bid") to a sorority or you do not.] As it turns out, the friend that I had signed up for recruitment with and I were not in the same group. Instead, I was with a bunch of girls that I knew of—heard of, seen around, knew about—for the entire recruitment process. The reason why I knew of them was not just because we were a small campus; it was also because they were the "popular" girls in our class. They always knew where the parties where, everyone knew their names, they were just the girls to watch for our class. Much to my surprise, throughout the recruitment process I had become quite close with those girls. I couldn't believe that girls like that actually liked a girl like me. I had never felt so good about myself. I became really confident and excited; that new-found personality only grew when I was offered a bid into the "Popular Sorority". This sorority was NOT the sorority that I had originally planned on joining because I didn't think there was any way I would ever get offered a bid, but surely enough I did. Additionally I was offered a bid from the sorority that I was living with. Overwhelmed and even blinded by the "Phi Sig Sparkle" I chose to pledge with the sorority that I never thought I stood a chance with: Phi Sigma Sigma. I didn't consider the fact that my friend whom I had signed up for recruitment with (Megan) was not pledging Phi Sig; she decided to join the sorority that we were living with.That was when she and I went our separate ways and my life changed…forever. Bid Day was such a blur. When they called my name and announced me as a Phi Sig. for the first time I was ecstatic. I ran down to the 40 beautiful girls who seemed so incredibly excited about having me be a part of their life. I had never felt so accepted. Along with me were those girls that I went through recruitment with, those "popular" girls that I couldn't believe liked me. We rushed down to the gazebo like a herd of wild animals surrounded by our new Sisters screaming their songs at the top of their lungs. As we entered the gazebo, the "pledges" crowded close together in the center and all of the Sisters stood on the benches and piled in to the jam-packed McDaniel landmark. Suddenly the content of their songs shifted from the sweet little "I am stuck on Phi Sig, 'cuz Phi Sig's stuck on me" to incredibly vulgar, demeaning, explicit songs like "So fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, who the fuck are me? We are Phi Sigma Sigma, the best sorority!" Unsure of how to react I looked at my fellow pledges. Sure, they looked overwhelmed, but in a good way. I felt down right uncomfortable. I didn't talk like that and I wondered would I really be singing those same songs in just a few weeks? That day that I joined Phi Sig was the day that my entire life began to change. Things that I used to feel so strongly against, I began partaking in quite regularly. Case in point, alcohol consumption. All throughout high school and even freshman year I was able to abstain from alcohol, for the most part. I had definitely never been intoxicated and I even criticized my dad quite regularly for drinking so much. To this day, I don't know how exactly I got so out of control. I became obsessed with the idea of fitting in. I wanted everyone to believe that Phi Sig was where I belonged. I drank more and more as the months went on. I was the girl that became the "embarrassment" at parties. Yet, that small group of girls that I pledged with stuck by my side. They would make excuses for me and always be ready to party with me again the next night. Before I knew it, I was spending a significant amount of time drinking alone, in the morning, during class, even in the shower. I went from drinking beer and mixed drinks to drinking hard liquor straight. Vodka in a water bottle seemed to fool everyone—professors, police, and my Sisters. No one knew this secret that I was harboring. No one knew that my immense need to be one of them had reached new levels: I had become an alcoholic. A real, scary, deteriorating alcoholic. At the end of my sophomore year, there was one fateful night that seemed to be the turning point for everyone. In one of my drunken rages, I lost it. To this day, I do not know the details of what happened because I was beyond the point of a blackout. All I know is the next day, no one would talk to me, look at me, or even listen to me. Over the summer and the following fall I had become incredibly depressed. Even though I was finally living with my sorority, I spent most of my time alone, in my room, drinking my troubles away. In October, I took a leave of absence. My depression had gotten to the point where I couldn't get out of bed, go to class, go to work, or function at all. My parents and my doctor told me that I needed to take some time off (despite the fact that they didn't even know about my drinking problem). During my recovery period, I experienced terrible withdrawal. The depression got worse. I left rather abruptly from school—didn't say bye to anyone—and the thing that was killing me the most was that no one had reached out to me. They saw that my room was completely abandoned, empty, and yet no one cared enough to ask me if I was okay. I felt so alone. I realized that I was living in a fantasy world the entire time that I was a Phi Sig. Could it really be possible that I was missing something? Were we really not the greatest of friends in the first place? It seemed like they felt this way about me all along, before our big fight, and now they finally had an excuse to act on their feelings. After an entire month had passed without hearing from a single person from school, I made a terrible decision. I decided that I would rather not live at all than have to live alone. In mid-November of 2010, I overdosed. I swallowed about 60 Lithium tablets—one of the most toxic prescription medications on the market. I was rushed to the hospital where I couldn't stop throwing up. I was dizzy and falling in and out of consciousness. In order to save my life, I had a tube inserted through my nose and down my throat that sucked all of the toxic fluid out of my stomach and was exchanged for a cleansing fluid that was going to restore my body, I was in the Intensive Care Unit for three days. Each day I had to have dialysis because I had done such terrible damage to my kidneys. I spent two weeks in the psychiatric unit (including Thanksgiving) where I recovered from everything. Upon discharge, I still hadn't heard from anyone in my sorority. They didn't even know that I had literally just dodged death because of everything that had happened between us. Yet, I would go on Facebook and see pictures of them at parties and formals and going on like life had never been better. About a month later I received a phone call from our sorority president asking me if I knew if I was going to be returning back to McDaniel the following semester or not. Unsure if I was ready or not, my doctor was not yet ready to make that decision. Unable to give a definite answer, the president gave me two options: 1.) I pay "dues" (the national fee for being in the sorority) and if I return it's paid, and if not, I get no refund or 2.) I don't pay and if I return I would not be allowed to so affiliated with the sorority. Suddenly everything seemed so clear. I realized that for the duration of this conversation, she didn't ask ONCE "By the way, how are you?". No. She didn't care. She cared about paying my dues. And it became so obvious that everyone else probably felt the same. From a distance, it looked like I had fallen off the face of the earth and no one cared. At that exact moment of clarity, I disaffiliated from the sorority. Upon returning the following semester no one knew how to treat me. Most of them ignored my existence entirely, and those who didn't right away, have grown to completely ignore me. When they're not ignoring me, they're whispering, laughing, gossiping, about what happened to the lost Phi Sig. Two years later I have never been happier, healthier, or more successful. I keep busy and don't let interactions with my ex-sisters get the best of me. I have really grown up in a short amount of time. I have seen the ugly side of Girl World and I almost died because of it. Though my entire experience was incredibly painful and even life threatening, I don't regret it at all. I have learned so much about myself and about people in general because of my experience. That was a time of true confusion for me. I had no idea who I was and I was so fixated on being who I thought everyone wanted me to be. Now, I am able to look in the mirror and be happy and proud of who I am. I have so much dignity just by knowing that I am no longer part of the group of girls who walk around campus calling themselves whores and sluts. I have learned that I am better than that. I can only hope that they can see that they are too. -


Mickey: I'm not sorry for what I did do, but for what I didn't. I didn't stand up for either of you when that group was making fun of you behind your back. From now on, I will. -

Chloe: I'm sorry that you felt the need to leave school. I know we disagreed and you felt really lonely, and to be honest, I still don't understand why you acted the way you did, but I forgive you for being mean to me. I know we're not going to be friends like that again, but I just want to be the better person and apologize. - Emily


Lissie: I was harassed on the school bus to such a degree that I refused to ride the school bus. My mom had to drive me to school every day because I would have a panic attack if I had to ride the bus. -

Meagan: I am so sorry for turning on you. All the things I've said and done...I know it didn't help you. I sincerely apologize. - Kara


Meagan: I pledge to think before I speak and act. - Washington, DC


Meagan: I've always been the new girl in school. Being a child of divorced parents and accustomed to arguing and fighting, I didn't really know how to be nice or gentle or how to make friends. In elementary school I got by just being this bossy girl, but inside I hated what I was doing to my friends. I just didn't have anywhere to turn and I didn't know what to do. I went through a lot at home, so it kind of forced me to become very mature at a young age and keep things bottled up; to express myself in ways that weren't always the best. I moved on from that, eventually, but when I transferred to public school, I was so lost. People talked about me, laughed at me, and assumed things about me that ruined my reputation. I had some friends, but I ate lunch alone and came home crying because the things people were saying destroyed me inside. I've been able to recover and cope very well since that year, but now I find myself very insecure. I look in the mirror and hate what I see. Every other girl seems prettier or better than me, and I start to hate everything about myself. There still isn't anyone I can go to, so I try to deal with it internally. I just wish that all the rumors and drama weren't making everything worse. -


Jenny: I'm sorry for getting mad at you. It wasn't right. - Nia


Emily Wachter: Dear old me, I no longer feel alone, sad, mad, stressed out, or nervous. I no longer feel the need to harm myself. Instead, I will write, draw, and make music. I have learned that I’m not alone and there are many people out there like me. I have learned that I don’t need to change or depend on guys for everything. Goodbye to my life of pain and sorrow. To everyone who has ever hurt me, physically or mentally, even though it hurt me at the time, you have made me a strong and a mature person. Goodbye anger. I now know when I get angry to walk away and count to ten and then confront whoever or whatever I have a problem with. Goodbye depression. You will no longer make me feel sad, angry, worried, or fearful. You no longer hold me back. You no longer have my confidence. You no longer keep me away from God and Christ. You no longer keep me up at night. You no longer have control over any aspect of my life. Goodbye depression and anger; you’re gone. Sincerely, New me -


Amy: Lanna, I'm sorry. I thought you saw that I was there for you. I'm sorry you feel mocked or belittled. Pain is real, and it's nothing to make fun of- that was never my intention, my intention was love. - Lanna

Louisa: In 5th grade I was bullied. In my class, I had two of my best friends and we would do everything together, always. One day though, they went to the office to get something for our teacher and I decided to look through one of their desks because she had a big bag in it. I looked in the plastic bag and I saw tons and tons of sticky notes. I started to read them and i soon realized that they were all about me. How stupid I was, how ugly I looked one day, how my hair is always frizzy. I couldn't take it, I just started bawling in the middle of class and ran to the bathroom. These two girls were my best friends and I just felt so betrayed and alone. The rest of the year in that class they isolated me, I was never good enough for them. It made me feel like it was my fault too. They blamed me for the notes they wrote. Its been about 4 years since this incident and I am friends with the girls. We're not as close as we were but we are on speaking terms. They have apologized and it is better.. My message to girls who are being bullied is to stay strong because it all eventually comes to an end. -


Khristine: In Middle school i was always picked on. In the 7th grade i was picked on by these group of girls who made fun of how I dressed and my weight. In the 8th grade is when it this girl drew the line on bullying. i didn't know her at all. She just started throwing stuff at me in lunch and always taunted me if i ever stood up to her. She went to far when she threw milk at me. I decided to throw it back at her. She didn't like it so her and the whole table got up with her and all walked up to my face saying stuff like what you gonna do or i know you didn't just do that! There was no point for them all to get like that and i didn't know them all. I want to just hit her in the face but there was this school policy that if you started a fight you didn't graduate so luckily the bell rang and i ran out of there holding in my tears. I didn't realize i had ran past my best friends. I just ran and ran to my next class. I had the best of friends that year so if it had not been for them that day keeping me calm and saying that to just ignore the girl that she's not important for me to mess with i would have been miserable the rest of the school year. I'm glad i told my parents. The girl never messed with me the rest of the school year. i feel joyful for having the best friends anyone could ever have. without them where would i be right now? The Kind Campaign is the best. I just wish they were hear when i needed them. Right now you guys are helping me survive my Junior Year! -

Beth: When I was younger, I was bullied. I hated it. Most of kids bullied me because I was in Special Education or because I was a new kid at school. I never understood why they would pick on me, but it hurt. The best thing I had with me, was the truth. Those bullies may have been bullied themselves. -

Courtney: I apologize for not being the greatest friend. I know I did some not so kind things in high school, but I just want you to know that I never meant to hurt you. I hope one day you can forgive me because that person was not me. - Brittney


Courtney: I was bullied mostly in middle school, always being on the outside and never in the "in crowd". I tried my hardest to not let it affect me and stay strong, but it was not easy. I have always felt as if I have never had that one good friend until high school. I lost that friend to suicide putting me in a place where I felt even more alone. For the rest of high school I never found that friend again and I went through so many friends. I finally found one good friend again in College and pulling through everything in middle school and high school got me to where I am and I am very grateful now. -

Julia : I pledge not to treat people the way I have been treated. I will do all that I can to see that schools react to protect children from bullying - Elmira


Julia: I have been bullied this entire school year. Three girls in my school have succeeded in turning most of the school against me and two of my friends. I have had someone dump a jumbo pixie stick in my book-bag. The sticky sugar was all over my books and homework assignments. These girls also used an English assignment to write nasty stories about me and my friends. When we had dances at school the bullies instructed the boys in our school not to dance with me and my friends. The girls accuse me and my friends of things we didn't do. Finally, I brought a diary to school and one of the bullies brought it home and showed her mother. I didn't write anything threatening in the book, but the bullies tried to get me kicked out of school. They went as far as calling the police on me. I have been asked to get counseling for depression. I have been out of school for one week. I am not suspended, but the school principal is getting a lot of pressure from the bullies parents not to have me return. When my parents asked the school when I can return to school the principal suggested that I not return to school. I have done nothing wrong, but I am being treated very meanly. I told my mom I was never depressed, but since I have been targeted by these girls I feel awful. -


Avery: These two girls constantly made fun of me, and called me rude names. To my face, they were nice, but behind my back, they'd spread rumors and try to destroy me. When I had surgery, it was crucial for me not to get hit, and these girls threw basketballs at my operated area on purpose, pretending it was an accident. Eventually, I had enough. I confronted them and told them how I didn't appreciate what they were doing. I told them to cut it out, because I wasn't afraid and I didn't care what they said. Sure, we aren't friends..but I stood up for myself, and now they do not dare bother me anymore. -

Cami: I'm sorry for telling all your secrets to the school after we stopped being friends. Sorry for calling you a cross-eyed slut. Even though no one like you anyways and talked shit already I didnt have to instigate and make it worse. I was just mad that we weren't friend anymore after all the time I had spent standing up for you. and now that we're adults and completely moved on with our lives I hear you're struggling with addiction. I'm sorry we messed you up that bad. - Rachel


Jackie Marshall: I pledge to be kinder to my family and friends. - Buffalo NY


Megan: In the 4th and 5th grade I was literally the biggest bitch to people because I finally became popular, if that makes sense. During the time, being popular was so important and it was everything a girl at my school would want to be. I started just being so mean to people I didn't even realize how bad things got. I just wish I could take back those years and say sorry to everyone whose feelings I hurt. -


Amanda DeVaul: I lie to all of my friends about my weight because i dont want them to laugh at me -


Katie M.: I am so so so so so sorry for calling you names and talking about you behind your back. I know your story and I should support you and not put you down. I will always be here for you and I love you with all of my heart. But sometimes I just get super jealous because you are really pretty and skinny and all the boys look at you even though you don't notice...and whenever you are hurting, I hurt. And that's how it has always been since the sixth grade. I LOVE YOU TAYLOR - Taylor W<3


Katie M.: Hi my name is Katie. I am 14 years old and this is my story... In the 7th grade my dad had a motorcycle crash. He was hit by a truck and he almost died. I cried and I did something really stupid. I had always known people who cut themselves and I saw people on tv that did it. I thought it might help me. I cut the upper part of my right arm. No one knew about it, and it kind of helped me focus on something else that really hurt me. You know, physical pain rather than internal pain. I didn't cut again until the beginning of 8th grade. My two best friends randomly turned on me. They gained up on me and were texting me really rude thing. I cried for hours. At lunch they started whispering about me and it really hurt. I can't remember exactly what I was thinking but I immediately grabbed my pizza box in front of me and ripped a piece off and began slicing my right wrist up. Then I ran into the bathroom and made myself throw up. I started to really judge myself and I thought I was really fat, so I stopped eating, and I lost about 30 pounds over 1 month. I was really unhealthily skinny and it was gross. It made me feel way worse knowing that I was so underweight, so I started eating again and the girls and I worked it all out. Around January, my best friend got upset over a guy. She knew some girls from my school that cut. And so she decided she would too. She shredded her wrists up and I cried for her. Everyone blamed it on me because the guy liked me and not her, so I cut. I cut my right wrist up really badly and I carved, "LUV", "P", and "T" into my arm. (LUV because I was having relationship problems, P because that was the first letter of my boyfriends name, and T because Taylor was the girl that cut herself really badly and she even tried to commit suicide but I called her mom before she did anything) Eventually my mom found out and she was really upset. She told me I needed to stop and I needed to get help. But the thing was, I couldn't just stop. I liked cutting. It helped me be calm and to be honest, it didn't hurt at all. I got a therapist and I lie to her face and my moms. I have cut again because of drama and because of my mom and dad. At one point, I had this boy, who I was dating, call me a bitch, slut, and whore. I was so hurt because I thought he loved me and I thought that he was supposed to be the person that made me feel good about myself. But all he did was hurt me. Now he won't even talk to me. I cut again because of it. And it bled out every where; on my sheets, on my clothes, and on a rag. My cuts are all over my body; 1 on my left thigh, 2 on my left calve, 6 and a heart on my right thigh, 1 on my right hip, 3 on my left hip, 5 on my right wrist, 1 on my right bicep, 30 on my left wrist, 7 on my left arm, and 4 on my left bicep. You do the math... It's a lot and I can't wear shorts or short sleeves without being afraid of being judged. I am scared of everyone now and I can't trust anyone except my very best friend in the whole entire world, Hannah. Sometimes I think that she is the only person in the world that actually cares about me... I am slowly getting better and I'm cutting less and less. Many people are praying for me and it really helps me with my fight to completely stop cutting. -


Natalie Peterson: The truth is, I hang out with more guys than girls because girls CAN be catty and mean. I was the quiet and shy girl from Elementary school to High school. But I'm really not quiet. I love being kind to others, and I wish girls could see that I would love to be their friends and have girl talk and hang out. But I also wish that girls didn't feel like they have to be rude and catty to others. We are all trying to survive and we all need friends. -


Rie: I apologize to my BFF for not being as close to her as I should have sometimes. From now til forever I will be more truthful to you! - Nimie


Riya M.: I have a friend, who I thought she was my friend, but secretly she was bullying my best friend. She had revenge plans. I never noticed, but my best friend was really hurt. I apologized for it and stood up for me when I needed help. -


Katherine: My story began in elementary school when I became the "punching bag" in 2nd grade. Somehow I managed to piss off the school bully (a female, by the way) whom everyone, boys and girls, were afraid of. Needless to say, for 7 years I was constantly picked on, called names (I was chubby for a few years - never mind that the bully was also chubby - no one picked on her) pushed in the hallways, tripped, and became the social outcast. When new kids moved to the school, I tried to befriend them, since I had no other friends. We would hang out for a while, and then the rumors started about my social status in the school and I was alone again. It was devastated and lonely the majority of my young life. By the time junior high came around, I had a (very) small group of friends and eventually grew into my weight but the tormenting continued. If I wasn't picked on about the weight, it was about my nose, my clothes, my chest, my hair, that I'm stupid, that I was ugly that I had glasses, etc, etc. It wasn't until I moved across the country and started over in high school that things changed - while I wasn't in the "popular" crowd, I had a group of friends, dated some (including the captain of the football team), and aside from the occasional snide comment and bitchiness that seems to happen between "friends", was much happier. However, I feel that my early experiences negatively influenced my life. I have issues maintaining friendships with women (I do not and have not had a best friend since 8th grade) and my self confidence, from years of negative reinforcement in my early years, is shot. By the way, all of this began 37 years ago. I now have a daughter in 4th grade and I can see the transformation in the kids - one day they're the sweet young girls and next, they are stabbing each other in the back. I only hope that my daughter is resilient enough to handle what comes her way. I applaud your efforts and hope that once and for all, this changes how women and girls treat each other. -


Madeline: When I was in fourth grade, there were two different groups of girls and my best friend that bullied me. They wouldn't leave me alone, they just kept mocking me and telling me I was weird. My best friend ignored me, she wouldn't even talk to me. When I asked her why she said, "Cuz you are a nerd, and I don't want people to think I am a nerd, too. Plus you hang out with Abby." Abby was the other girl who was bullied more than anyone, but she stood up for me, and I still and very thankful she did that, even though it didn't help much, I still felt like I had at least one friend who still cared. -


Maxine Devaux: I have been harassed about my weight and clothing since 5th grade. I have attempted suicide twice and have been fighting cutting for almost a year. Even though I may not feel it, I still know that there is hope somewhere, thanks to this campaign. -


Leslie: I am sorry for what I have done to, well, just anyone. I am sorry if I have talked behind your back, lied to you, or been just plain mean. I hope you all can forgive me. - Everyone


Leslie: I am sorry if in any way I have made you feel small or insignificant. I truly did not mean to. All this time I have always thought you were bullying me for no reason. I see now that it may have been something I have done. I hope you can forgive me for what I have done and hope we can be friends again. If you read this, go up to me at the bus stop and tell me. Please. - Yani


Leslie: I have been bullied all my life. Not only by other people, but by life itself. I've never had many friends. A lot of people either think I'm annoying, judge me, or just reject me from the status quo. The first memory I have of being bullied was when my brother said it would have been better if I was never born, and he meant it. For a while, I would believe it. I hid in my room every day for a week and pretended I was never here. I got bullied in Kindergarten and 1st grade, the girls would make up any excuse to stay away from me and the guys thought I had cooties. All I had were 2 guy friends (one my crush) and 1 girl friend. Then someone told my crush I liked him. 1st grade and 2 friends. 2nd grade I had 2 guy friends who were like brothers to me. People started spreading rumours I was dating one, but were still friends. 3rd grade I made my 2 best friends (girls) of 5 years who are like sisters to me. Then one of my guy friends started treating me lower than dirt and dated my best friend and broke her heart. He even threatened to beat me up. That was the same year that I found that my pre-k crush and best friend was murdered. Yeah, murdered. It absolutely broke my heart. 4th grade was when the girl trouble started. I made another good friend who rode my bus. Then all of a sudden she starts lying to me and saying the worst things behind my back. Also that year I had a good guy friend (which I was hesitant about after last year) and once again the rumours start. Because one day my backpack slid to the back of the bus and yet another group of mean girls open my backpack, steal my diary, and read it. They see the initials of my 1st grade crush and mistake them for my guy friends, then make fun of me whenever I hang with him. 5th grade: my "sister" is home-schooled, but I get and I get 3 more good friends (girls). Really doesns't matter cuz nothing could replace her, but still. I did get really close with them though. Same year I find that I have a curve in my spine (therapy :-() and have ADHD, but I can't have meds for it. 6th grade: rolling backpack = people kicking you and calling you a b***h every 2 sec, 8th graders bullying you with the art of awkwardness, and all the drama. Also, I got 2 of the good friends made the year before taken away. 7th grade (this year) is not so bad. All of there's years I've had girls calling me fat, ugly ,annoying, and just about every mean thing you can think of. And at the time, it hurts. Girls started bullying me in kindergrden . If you ask me, this needs to stop. All it does is make people feel horrible. It's been happening to me for 13 years. I've been bullied a lot, so it doesn't effect me much. But for the girls that need that human companionship,that love, it can drive them to depression, anorexia, alcohol, drugs, prostitution, or even suicide. All of these things can destroy lives. This needs to be stopped. -


Leslie: I pledge not to talk about anyone behind their backs. No matter how mean they might be or what they've done. I will think about what I say before I say it. I will reflect on my day and apologize right away when I do something wrong or mean. -


Erin: There is a girl who dislikes me, and always has. She used to pretend to be my friend, but to tell my boyfriends or friends things about me that weren't true. I have slowly lessened my contact with her, and no longer talk to her at all. However, our school is doing a Kind Campaign fashion show with the help of Glamour and Glow, and I signed up. Today I realized that the girl who used to say nasty things to me and spread rumors about me is signed up. I really hope she learns something from this experience. But, I just don't see her taking anything from it. I just hope she doesn't hate anyone else as much as she hates me. -


Dave: HI My name is Dave. I discovered your website after just reading a Barbara Kay article titled "When Girls Ruin Girls." I was in middle school in 8th grade, around 1985 here in California. There was a pack of girls who hung out together, long-time friends from elementary school. Some of the were nice, but some of them were snobby and rude. A girl I'll call "Sarah" was the rudest, while another girl I'll call "Jennifer" was much nicer, and seemed to be just clinging to the pack of girls for approval. One day in class, "Sarah" started insulting "Jennifer", indirectly, talking trash. Then we heard other pack girls joining in with her. They kept whispering to each other, insulting Jennifer. But Jennifer...was one of their friends. But these girls kept talking about her. They would insult her then accuse her of being disloyal to the pack and talk trash on her. First it was whispers, but as class went on they talked louder and louder. So the whole class could hear it, including Jennifer. I looked over at her and she had her head down and her hands on her face. I thought the girls would notice and feel bad, but instead, the more she felt shamed, the bigger smiles and smirks these girls got on their faces. The teacher was a woman, she was one of those "hip" teachers who considered herself to fit in with the "cool" girls. She was writing on the chalkboard, pretending not to hear the girls. Well suddenly Jennifer jumped up out of her seat, and just stood their for a second, her face looking like it was going explode into emotion, but just stayed blank for a few seconds, then some tears came down and she started to run out of the classroom. The teacher got mad and said, "Excuse me! Where are you going?!". Jennifer stopped and turned around, her face was red and cheeks wet from tears, she said: "Can I leave, please?" Teacher said, "No of course not, sit back down". Teacher could see the tears, but showed no concern for her. So Jennifer ran out of the room. The teacher chased her, yelling at her. Then the girl pack who had been attacking Jennifer all looked smug and full of satisfaction. My desk was next to the door and I could hear Jennifer and the teacher talking, Jennifer was crying and explaining what happened, but the teacher was offering her no sympathy, demanding she come back to class, but Jennifer ran off and went home. The teacher then came back in and had a parade with it all. She spend the next 15 minutes talking about Jennifer and insulting her. Mocking her pretending to be her, jumping up and saying, "Oh I'm special and above others, can I just get up and leave please?" The pack girls absolutely loved it, laughing out loud and saying to the teacher, "Oh God I LOVE you!!!", and the teacher noticeably liking this attention. I'm 40 years old now but I never forgot Jennifer because the things that happened to her ended up teaching me important life lessons. Most importantly, the lesson of empathy. Compassion. Considering the feelings of others. Jennifer came back to school of course, but she was different after that. She was once excitable and fun and happy. Now she was quiet, never said much, and didn't smile much anymore. It was hard to get her to engage in conversation. Later as I got older, now 40, I would realize this was because Jennifer learned to stop trusting people. In her 13 year old view, if I was nice to her, maybe later I would stab her in the back and break her spirit. She wasn't willing to take the chance. I hope she overcame those things and has found happiness in her life. And while I'd like to strangle the girls who bullied her, I hope they became full grown women of integrity and dignity. As for you folks, I think it's awesome you have taken the time, and put forth the effort, to spread knowledge on the subject of female bullying. It has reached people, and will reach more. And as it does, it will help some of them break the cycle and stop bullying or abusing someone else. Or help non-bullied people to stand up for bullied people. Keep up the good work, it's appreciated, and Thank You for the opportunity to share this story, people need to be reminded they're not alone in their pains. Dave -

Emily: Sometimes, true apologies cannot be short and sweet, especially when it comes to how durastic the situation that issued an apology may be. And that is why my apology is in the form of a story. I am aware that I am one voice out of many. Everyone has something to apologize for, I'm sure, wether they would want to face that or completely disreguard it. I for one am choosing to face my mistake in the form of this certain apology. I'm guessing some of you reading this, if anyone at all, may be wondering why I'm sending the apology through the interet wether than saying it to the girl's face. That is because I am 17 years old, and the girl who I want to send the apology to has moved away.... She changed her email, deleted her Facebook, Twitter, and even changed her cell phone number because of me. Her name was Caroline, and she was my best friend ever since preschool, until the eigth grade when our friendship hit rock-bottom. One of the things I'm surprised about is how much a boy can alter a girl. (I now know that being in a good relationship means being able to be yourself, something that I didn't know at the time of this event) Caroline was dating Derek, and Derek had always, always been my crush.... Caroline knew that. She'd always listen to me ramble about how wonderful he was for hours upon hours. But me? I never gave her the time of day to say how she really felt about Derek. She liked him too, and had liked him just as long as me... But Caroline had never had the courage to tell me. Maybe, she was wrong for going out with him after she had known how long I had liked him for.... But I was so much more wrong to her in return in so many ways. Caroline and I... We were both the most "popular" girls at my middle school at the time. (The word popular is nothing but a misleading word to me now) The moment Caroline broke the news to me that she was dating Derek.... I flipped out. Literally. I remember going completely crazy with anger, suddenly assulting Caroline and trying to yank out her hair while she screamed apologies at me. The next day at school, Caroline showed up with a patch of hair messing from her head and a black eye. My actions were wrong, and terrible. I was terrible and wrong too. I made Caroline's life as worse as I possibly could.... I spread rumors, and constantly referred to her as a slut as well as other vicious profanities. Caroline, the girl who had been my best friend.... the girl who had always stuck side by side with me... I turned on her. Poof. She was no longer my friend all because some guy had stepped into the picture. Surprisingly, Caroline and Derek dated all the way until Sophmore year.... Why did they break up? Because of me. I had lowered Caroline's level of popularity until she was practically nonexistant. Derek was ashamed of being seen with her, so he dumped her. Caroline had always thought Derek was PERFECT. She was completely devasted and resonated with her problems by not only abusing the use of drugs, but by abusing herself with knives. Derek was the only friend and person she had to confide in at school, and I had destroyed that. I suppose I should have felt selfishly satisfied.... But instead I felt weak. I later learned that Caroline's parents had made her move to a new high school, and ever since she had been receiving therapy. I was always happy though that she never went to the point of suicide, no matter how often she had brought the subject up. Now, several years later, not even these words here will be able to convey how I feel. The fact that I almost drove someone to suicide, alcohol abuse, and self-abuse will live with me forever. It will forever remain my deepest secret, and my deepest guilt. I wish Caroline the best... that she's dating someone who will love her and never leave her, that she's the happy and intellegent girl I remember from my childhood, and that Caroline is living the best life she possibly can. Caroline, I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you. I will never forget my actions, as well as how wonderful of a friend you were before I caused you all these tradgeties. I know you may never read this because there is no way I can get in contact with you.... But I am sorry, so sorry, for my actions. I will never be able to forgive myself. But I also thank you.... You never told anyone my name, you never even mentioned to anyone that I was the one bullying you. You gave me smiles and trust, but I turned those smiles and trust into angry eyes and hatred. If we ever meet again in the future.... Hopefully you, Caroline, and others will know that I have been changed, and that I never again will be the spiteful, envious person that I once was. - Caroline

Jen: A group of my friends threw a sleepover party, to which they did not invite me, and voted about whether or not they wanted to remain friends with me. It's so immature that it sounds like a story from middle school or even younger--we're seniors in high school and it happened this year. -

Rachel: I'm in a group of girls who I call my friends, but I don't feel like they are. I'm always the one who just stands there, on the sidelines, hoping there will be someone who I can connect to, but there isn't. I feel all alone. Completely alone. -

Thank you for everything you have done for me. - Gwyn


Annette B.F.: In sixth grade, I thought I had the most nicest friend in the world. She would always meet me in the hallways before school and just hangout and talk about what we did last night when we weren't texting each other. People always thought we were a weird pair because I was 5'5 and she was 4'10. i had long brunette hair and she had shortish blonde hair. I has and still am a TOTAL tomboy and she is the defention of a girly-girl. One day she wanted me to be more like her. I asked her "Why? Don't you like me for how I am? I mean thats what friends do right?" She said "Yeah, but people are giving you looks when you are with me and I don't like how they look at me like that too. So we are going to make you girly. You are going to dress more like me and act more like me." I said "um..NO. I like who I am and if you don't like it then I'm sorry." At that moment I felt my stomach drop to the floor because right after I said that she said "Fine. Then I can't be with you anymore. I'll find a new best friend who isn't secretly a dude and who is mature enough to listen to someone's adivse." I remember I thought that everyone was staring at me that morning because I just broke up with who I thought was my best friend. Later she found a new friend, who is now one of my closest friends that I have ever made. The girl who bullied me who drag her new friend around like a dog and whisper stuff about me behind my back about how I'm such a whore and thats why I wear pants, because I'm forced to cover up and how I'm a bitch for being mad at her. It took me a lot of courage to say to her. "I don't appreciate you stabbing me in the back like that. It was not ok and stop spreading rumors about me." To this day she still treats me like dirt but then I think about the one friend I gained out of the situation and how I learned what a true friend is. If Gwyn F, Ashleigh M, Meredith T, Dani S, or Aoife M is reading this, you taught me what it means to be a friend.. If Amelie D is reading this, I just wished you would accept me for who I was and still am. -


Your Name: I pledge to not judge people and gossip. - Sammamish


Kailey: When I was in elementary school, you were only popular if you wore uggs and abercrombie. There was this big group of girls who never hung out with the rest of us, and it was as if everyone wanted to be them, except me. Then, one day, one of the most popular girls started hanging out with one of my best friends. she was kind of mean, so i stopped hanging out with my friend with that girl around. After a while, they stopped hanging out. Surprisingly, She started hanging out with ME! we had a lot of fun. I even went to her birthday party with all of her popular friends. But then she told me something shocking; she said that my friend said i was mean and a ploopy. That was HUGE. it was elementary school, when the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series was popular. mean was one thing, but PLOOPY? I couldn't believe it. So i stopped hanging out with my other friend. eventually, she came up to me at recess and asked me why i said that she was really dumb. I told her i never said that... and i know how much that would offend her, because she wasn't the best in school, or the smartest person i know. We told each other that this girl had told us that we were saying bad things about each other, and we figured out that she was driving us apart. even worse, she was doing it ON PURPOSE. we apologized for believing her, and we hugged. We just decided to slowly grow apart from her, and we hoped she didn't notice because we didn't want to cause a scene. I am glad to say that i haven't had much bully experience other than that. -


Annie: I pledge to stop myself and my friends from saying mean, hurtful things about other girls. I promise to just talk to my mom when I need to rant about another girl and to try my hardest to be kind to every girl, no matter how weird they seem to be, because everyone has their own story. - Seattle, WA

Laney: I pledge to not judge people by their cover, and to think before I say anything. I pledge to be someone people can respect, and look up to. I also want to have the KINDness to respect the people I don't really like. - Maple Valley, WA


Laney L.: I guess I was always the type of person that stood out in the crowd, and people noticed. Bullying hadn't really been an issue in Elementary school. Until 5th grade that is. Then I started getting into history, preferably ancient times. My new weird passion got people buzzing with new energy. It wasn't until 6th grade that bullying became a problem for me. Boys and girls alike would taunt me or tease me, it was always an emotional war, even with the guys. I started feeling down all the time, and avoiding people almost anywhere. Even my own parents. I felt trapped because once I was out of school I knew I'd have to go back the next day. I didn't want to wake up in the morning, but I never did anything about it. I kept all of these feelings inside. They were like a virus slowly infecting me. I started hating the town I lived in, the people around me, and mostly me. I never told anyone. I was especially bullied in P.E. I was conscience of my body. I was thin, but never fit. So I changed in the corner. During P.E. I had a lot of athletic people in my class, which made me feel even worse. I would sometimes have meltdowns and hide in the locker room. But they always came back and coaxed me back outside. I was starting to understand why cutting was so attractive to people. But I never did. I was too scared. There was this one horrible day where people were yelling at me and shoving me, when on the bus I started contemplating whether suicide would be better than this life. But by the end of the year I got an award for my grades, which boosted me up a bit, gave me a scrap of confidence that other people had stolen. Summertime, and it was amazing, no one to put me down! 7th grade came along, and I felt much better. I had this Best Friend of mine, but she would always hang out with this other I hated. We already knew we didn't like each other, and that left everything pretty hostile. But I put up with it since 4th grade for my best friend. Suddenly one day she wouldn't really talk to me, and I panicked. My mom said that's natural with old friends, but I had this dread buried in the pit of my stomach. I would wait for her at our talking place every day, but she never came. Then I found out she was hanging in the library with another group of friends, with the other I did not like. That's when I started scrambling to try and get her back. I tried talking to her, her friends, and even her mom to see if something was going on. I got pretty sad again. I basically had no one else.I tried going to the counselor, but they did nothing. I remember feeling so confused and hurt on why my best friend would do such a thing. One of the other girls said to me online "Nobody wants you hear" That crushed me. Then they started avoiding me and giving me glares. They even moved to another lunch table, giggling and laughing loud enough so I could hear them perfectly. The girl I didn't like called me a "bitch". I told my parents about everything, and that made everything so much better. I was able to tell them everything and for the first time in a long time, cry it all out. They helped me so much, I felt better and better. I was more confident and sure of myself. I won Student of the month, and more awards for academics. Everything was finally behind me, and I could move forward. Now I'm in eighth grade and this year is so much better. I built myself confidence, because I learned nobody can be strong for you. I now do what I love, I'm in two school clubs, and even have a boyfriend. I made this year great because I had the determination to go out there and show myself off. I found out that relying in the past does no good to you now. I moved forward, and a long way it has gotten me! Everything truly does get better. -

Alexcia: I have talked behind my friends back to my other friends, and then talked behind their back to the other friend. I should have never done that. I have also secretly gone out with my best friends crush. I'm sorry. And I will never do that again. -


Jane: I am really sorry for continuing that fight. Can we please be friends again? We should have never said those things and I am so sorry that i kept that conversatioin going by saying mean things. - Alexcia


Alexcia: I am really sorry for starting that fight, throwing words around. I'm sorry that we both had started saying things that we hate about each other. That did nothing, it brought us nowhere but not friends. I hope you can forgive me? - Jane


Alexcia: I pledge to try to be nice to all of the girls at my school, even if they aren't my most favorite people. Just one nice comment can make someones day, or just one person standing up for you can change your look on things. I pledge to be nice and more helpful - Seattle


LIB: It's highly unlikely that you'll even read this, which is probably why I'm fine with writing it. I'm sorry for lying to you in first grade, or whatever that was, and getting defensive about it later, and I'm sorry for anything I have ever done to make you not like me. I don't know why we don't do stuff together much anymore, but can that please stop? - EDC


Noelle: I'm not really sure you would call it bullying. But still, last year in 6th grade, I was the nice, independent, shy girl. And most people ignored me, scooting away from me right when I sat down next to them. Nobody wanted to be my friend. And majority of my friends from elementary school had either ditched me for the popular clique or just decided that I wasn't good enough for them. The only remaining best friends of mine were two girls named Devyn and Elle. The problem was that they didn't have ANY lunches with me, so I would just be sitting by myself at lunch, reading a book and eating a sandwich. People obviously took this as a hint and immediately judged that I was a loser and biotch, so they ignored me for what seemed like eternity. All of my "friends" would ditch me, leaving me feel like such an outcast and loner that I was even afraid to go to school and walk the hallways. Near the third trimester, I was alone, none of my friends would talk to me, deciding that they were "too busy" with their new friends to spend time with me. This angered me but it made me so sad that I felt like a worthless, pathetic human being. A few days later, I tried to kill myself. I kept trying to persuade myself that no one cared for me in this life. I kept staring at the scissors, imagining myself take my own life with it. Soon, my mom found out what was happening and begged me to stop and enjoy life. This broke my heart. She was so oblivious to what was happening to me that I felt like if I let her know what had happened, all of my sadness would be stuck to her, making her carrying the heavy burden. I'm 13, and my name is Noelle. I almost took my life away because people who I thought were my friends ditched me and thought that popularity meant more than a trustworthy, loving, and caring friend. My life may seem terrible to some, and to others, this may seem like nothing. And I'm positive that others had had worse. -


Kailey Owen: I am so sorry for scratching you in third grade. I am also sorry for hating you in third and fourth grade. I am SO glad we're best friends now! I love you! - Ella Evans


heidi kunzler: i pledge to not let anyone bring me down and to never bully. - issaquah


heidi: i have been bullied since 3rd grade. everyone always made me feel like i wasnt important to anyone and i felt alone. i had no friends until 5 grade when i moved to a different state. i was deeply depressed and felt like nothing, my friends tried to change that and almost got me going again. i finally started telling bullies "you know what? i am my own person and nothing will bring me down anymore. you've done it once and trust me, it wont happen again." -


Brey: I pledge, To smile at everyone, because you do not know when it is saving a persons life. I've herd stories, about people committing suicide and they said they wouldn't if a single person smiled at them. And no one ever would. To not judge a person just by what you hear and see because not all the time is it true. You don't where they have been or what they are going through, you can make a difference. You can even save a life. It's cool to be kind. - Washington


Jaclyn: I Started liking a boy that my friend ,who was like family liked.Well Behind her back i hung out with him and Ended up kissing him, we ended up dating after all the drama. I know it was hard on her and it hurt her, she tried to put it behind her but Are friendship has not been the same since. I still feel guilty to this day, and turns out this guy turned out not to be the guy i thought he would be. - Kiara <3


Maisie Luis: I have made fun of people my entire life, im the type of girl to see someone and automatically start judge. Or i see some and right away hate them. I cal people names and bring them down. I watched the kind campaign movie to day. And will forever and always regret how mean i was. I wanna be deifferent. I wanna be kind. -


Taylor M: When i was in first grade, i had really messed up teeth, and they were way too big for my mouth. I was teased every day, and i started acting "sick" just so i could go home and get away from it all. It continued into second grade, and the following summer i moved away from that school and the only two girls who hadn't made fun of me. When i got to my new school, i was still shunned by everyone, even though i got braces. I moved again at the beginning of fourth grade, and was still shunned and bullied not only because of my teeth but because i had already knew every thing we were being taught and was passing everyone up in their grades. My homework kept getting stolen right off my desk, and people didn't care when i went looking for it. I finally got my braces off that year, and that problem finally went away. I was still bullied only because i was smarter than everyone else. I moved up to Washington in the summer between fourth and fifth grade, and i finally stood up for myself and my friends. I became best friends instantly with a girl named Hannah, and soon had made friends with everyone in my grade. i was in all the extracurricular activities, and people came to me with their bullying problems. In sixth grade Hannah and i met Betina and Jaida, and the four of us became sisters. Jaida had been part of the popular group, and so when she came to hang out with us a few girls decided they didn't like it. they started spreading rumors about her, and i was the one who stood up to them and made sure people knew the rumors weren't true. Now I'm in seventh grade, and Hannah and Betina have both moved away. I'm really scared for Jaida, because she has decided shes overweight even though she is very very tiny. i have been giving her at least some of my lunch and have been buying lunch for her, but she refuses to eat and what she does eat she runs so much that it doesn't help at all. She looks at all these underweight girls and thinks that shes ugly and fat, and doesn't listen to any reason. Now she is moving at the end of the year, and is moving on the opposite side of the country than Hannah Betina and i. those same girls give me dirty looks on a regular basis, and when i walk by they stop what they were talking abut and whisper, and i often hear my name being used. they act sweet and nice to me, but their eyes pretty much scream "i hate you". It hurts really bad, but i never let it show because people see me as the girl who they can come to with anything. Last night i went to a finding kid assembly though, and halfway through i started sobbing. Luckily the other girls i went with just hugged me and cried with me, even though they had no idea why i was crying. Even though i have my share of mean girls, i have the greatest friends ever. -


Elizabeth: I first started getting bullied in kindergarten. A fifth grade girl would always push me around when ever she saw me. I tried to tell an adult but no one helped me. In second grade I met a girl who in third grade tried to take away all my friends she kept trying until sixth grade. She did this to me because i conforted a girl she make cry every recess who she called her friend.   Forth and fifth grade I was bullied by another girl physically and emotionally and I didn't stand up to her because I was scared of her. All through this time and even until now ive been called ugly fat bitch stupid loner and many more. I didn't become depressed though. I started to become friends with others who needed someone. I helped them find their voice and just was there for them. This summer I moved across Washington and left all my friends. I have been made fun of and am now the new girl who has 3 friends.  -


Olivia R.: I am soooo, soooooooo sorry. Lat year I stuck my nose in a place that I shouldn't have and I know that I really hurt you and I'm sorry for that. It wasn't my place to take a side in that fight and I'm glad that we're friends again. - Payton C.


In Debt to Tiffany: I wake up I don't eat breakfast Just push my food around my plate, restless, feeding the dog what should be mine as my parents watch and wonder why I'm not chewing. School awaits, that horrible place, of what I was and want to be, but can't seem to achieve. Lunch arrives my stomach pleads with me, but there's my other half yelling and angry. I cannot eat. I cannot eat. It hurts either way. I push my plate away. School continues I'm too cold to think. There's a chill inside deep in my bones. My friend Tiffany, she confronts me, with an afternoon snack. My stomach rumbles my mouth waters and guilt thunders at me. I do not eat. I nibble at my dinner the food in front of me nothing but a calorie count. Bedtime comes I catch my face in the mirror. My eyes are sunken into my head, ugly and inhuman, like something dead. Skin stretched over bones my heart breaks a new I'm all alone. My hair is stringy not like it used to be. I'm ugly. I hear my parents through the wall as they debate what to do about my weight they talk of doctors and their cold tools They discuss therapy; a brain autopsy. I try to sleep but I'm too hungry so I go running until I'm tired. Morning comes black smudges under my eyes. Breakfast comes I eat four bites. My head screams at me, calls me fat asks do I really want to go back to a smelly fat lump in the corner? What I want is that evil conscience gone, that half dead face, these cold bones, this body. Gone. School passes by We're handed back a test. I failed. Why, oh why? Do I, have to be this way? PE is agony, the other girls, they see, poor ugly, bony me. My conscience and my skeleton. In science we learn of the universe. Anorexia Nervosa that word is scrawled on a paper, thrown at me. Anorexia Nervosa It sounds like a constellation, or maybe, I'm confused with Andromeda. I wish I was her she was the daughter of the most beautiful lady and was so pretty, a guy fell in love at his first sight. That, we learned in humanities. I spend lunch in the library hiding from the food, and Tiffany. I look up Andromeda and loose myself in the life so much better than mine. After lunch is sixth I skip with a note from the counselor. They give me a lecture I listen to what they say, through the screams of the other half of me. Poor grades they say, every teacher's worried. And my health, well for that I'm stuck here, every lunch. They want to control my weight, but don't they know it's the one thing I control. My grades I have lost my life has left the one thing remaining is my power to make that scale needle go steadily down. I'm strong enough to take charge of that one element in my life when every other thing about me has taken its own flight. My parents arrive, with the counselor and the principle. Their stern voices grate against my tired, ugly ears. Unhealthy weight. I do not eat. I'm ugly. I want the voices to stop, on my ears, and in my head. "Is this what you tell me?" The evil conscience says "Do you really want to loose me? Then you'll be a sweaty, fat, pig, eating everything." My parents take me home, in a car of worried silence. Nothing but me, and that menace, who's trapped beneath my skull. They ask if I'm hungry, If I'm fine, if I need--- I'm fine. This is the lie I say. I'm fine. This is not what I want. I cry, silently. why me? I eat a little dinner, hearing nothing but her. "You don't deserve this." "You're a hideous glutton, eating so much." "You make me sick." "You, nauseating...thing." I'm fine. Painful hours roll by same as always. People wave hi, to each other, not to me. At this rate, Tiffany, she's the only friend I have who hasn't deserted me. She tells me I have a problem. She calls it Anorexia. I am numb. I am fine. I am not Anorexic. We learned about eating disorders in 5th grade way back then, I never thought, I'd be one of them. I do not want it Maybe if I deny it it'll go away. I listen wordlessly and wish I could be not here, not me. The bell rings. We are in the girl's bathroom I hear the others going to class But, apparently, I am more important than that, to Tiffany. Tears roll down my sunken cheeks, Hateful words swim through my head. And I say the words I haven't said in far too long. "I'm hungry." -


Syndy: I'm 48 years old and still remember how much being bullied in 8th grade hurt. I was the new kid in school and made a great girlfriend, who was new also. We did everything together, then one day the cool girls started hanging out with her and she tried out for cheerleader. Instead of just making new friends and gracefully leaving me behind, she told them all sorts of things about me and the group of 4 of them tormented me for years. They never tired of it. I tried laughing it off and walking away. I didn't give them a reaction. They didn't give up. I had a new best friend who just stood by me and never mentioned it. She never talked back to them or stood up for me outwardly, but she did stay my friend. Our 30 year highschool reunion was this year and I didn't go because those same 4 girls were the organizers. Can't believe after all I have achieved and accomplished in my life that this still stings. -


Audrey: She would always be my friend when I was the only one there. But only when I was the only one there. Every time her popular friends would come she would just walk away from me and make fun of me. I loved her when she was alone with me, but not when her friends were. -


Nina: Anorexic. Bitch. Slut. Ugly. Whore. Wannabe. I've been called all those names. I'm 13. No one should go through that at 13 but I guess there's a time and place for everything. I felt gross, and when I looked in the mirror all i saw was an anorexic bitch. The girls who hurt me drove me insane. I couldn't escape them. They were at school and when they weren't physically around they were on Facebook and twitter. I thought I let it go but at my finding kind class I cried in front of all the girls at my school, and they did too. I found that the most secure people were sorry for things they've said and done. We were finally unified and one class didn't cut it. We all needed to share more. Every tear was meant for something that hurt inside and what shocked me is how much people hurt. -


Kellyn: Ok, well I haven't been affected by girl to girl, but more like mother to girl. My mother is down right evil. I still love her, but what she is doing to me is wrong. Her favorite form of "punishment" for me, is to slap me across the face several times, then pull me up to standing by my hair. And why I cry do to the pain, not the physical pain, but the mental, she just gets worse. And that was at the beginning. Now, it's worse. It seems that if I even give one wrong look, she goes nuts. If I get a 59% and not a 60% (60% is passing, 59% is failing) she'll get an email report, and then goes nuts on me. Any place I try to make a "safety" zone, it gets ripped to shreds. Not by her though, but by others. So, I have no place left to try to hide, to heal, so I get her full "assaults." the only way I was able to "release" the stress that She had placed on me, was to put it onto somebody else. But that led to more problems, which led back to more fighting. I get no help from my other family members. My father is out at sea, my step dad can help, but chooses not to, instead he hurts even more (I can hear him calling me stupid, and a lot of other things down the hall) My mother's mother, is worse then she is, my step-dad's mother hates my mother, my Father's mother has 3 grand-kids, so she doesn't really care. My friends don't know, since I can't bring my self to say this to them. The only person who can help is the adults at school who I'm friends with, but I don't think they really want to get involved with "family" matters. So, I'm left standing on my own, against her. I have all these things I want to say to her, all this pain I want her to feel, But I know that if I should do it, it would just rebound onto me, even worse. I still love my mother, and I don't want to leave her, but I just want to tell her to stop, with out getting hurt. Which, that really isn't an option anymore. I know I will get hurt, one way, or another. If I do nothing, I'll get hurt, if I stand up, I'll get hurt even worse. Help? -


myself: Im sorry for thinking suicide was an answer for people bulling me - myself


Kathryn: Because of being a target of someones hatered, i never got to find out who i am really except all my flaws that people point out. it started when i was 7 years old. I was in the second grade and i had no friends. i was nice to everyone. But no one liked me or accepted me. Two girls were knowen as 'the popular people' and they absolutley hated me. the would corner me at recess and beat me up both verbaly and physically. i told the princlipal nd the teachers. sure, they talked to the girls and tried to figure out what would happen but the two girls told them that i was bulling them and that they were just standing up for themselves. so then i got into trouble and everyday they would beat me up day over day. i was afraid to tell my parents. It was an awful feeling to not have some one that believed me and stuck with the same pain day over day.And i never knew how to stand up for myself because i was always the shy girl and never knew how to speak my feelings. i went into deppresion from that point on and i was the age of 7. i was tooo young for that. this lasted for years. in the fourth grade, she was in my class again. i attepted to talk to other girls and try to make friends but after i would talk to them, the 'bully' would go up and corner them and after that they wouldnt even look at me. i was suffering from anorexia and became very skinny and unwanted. everyone knew and made fun of me for that. i missed a total of 25% of the school year faking sick because i didnt want to face that pain. in the fifth grade, i got over my eating disorder and got better. but still i was being bullied. people didnt accept me for my apperence and how ugly i was. my mom hated to see me like this and so we switched schools. but even there, the pain didnt stop there. people in the locker rooms would say to me, "you are too skinny!" i had friends but no one knew ME. no one would listen to what i was put through. i would look at other girls and say i wish i could find a pair of pants that fit me and i picked at myself and pointed out my own flaws and yuo dont know how much i have been through and how much i suffered. there was this guy i liked and one of the 'popular' girls decided that she should go out with him just to get on my nerves.they would call me constently and rub in my face that they were going out. i was isolated in my room and felt so alone and hurt. i cried and i laid in bed just hoping a friend would be there for me but they text me telling me, "i hate u!" and "Y do u always have to do that?" and tell me all my flaws when no one understands that im hurting. it seems as though its eaiser to say mean stuff on the internet then to peoples faces because thats where it kills me the most. and the story gets worse, one night my 'friend' texted me and said that she was friends with the person that bullied me and were hanging out on friday and then i got a call from the 'popular' girl and she was saying all this mean stuff to mean and then, my friend was chating with me and says that they hate everything about me and that im ugly, too skinny and that everything would be way better with out me here. that made me break down i was crying for like 2 hours straight and finally i had enough of living. so i tried cutting myself. luckily i didnt lose too much blood and im still alive today. i am such a good friend to others but they all just go fake on me. i never knew what it was like to be treated good and have someone there for me. i was so thankful when 'The Kind Campaign' came to my school and i reliezed im not alone and a ton of people are treated this way. i just wish that i had a better life then i do right now. schools try to do an 'anti-bulling system' but just putting posters on the wall that say 'don't bully' doesnt do anything and i wish people can just hear my story instead of judging me by my appearence. -


Lauren Couch: For reasons that I don't know, I never seem to be able to make friends, true friends. I really wish that would change as time passes. -


Gabrielle Ferdeaneto: I called my friend Shalyn a butthead and then she threw a book at me and it hurt really bad -


Allie A.: I pledge to be a nicer freind and to not gossip about my "friends". - Laguna Beach


Nikki G.: I am sorry for whenever I am jealous of you, or if i have ever spread rumors about you. - Allie A.


Allie A.: I am sorry for sending you those mean texts. I know that we already made up but I still want to say sorry. Thank you for being a great friend. - Nikki G.


Stephanie: I pledge to value girls and women for who they are, not for the clothes they wear, what they look like or mistakes they have made. I will teach my son to value women in the same way. I will do what is right; treat people kindly and stand up to bullying and harassment. - Aurora, IL


Karen : I wasn't what you would call fully "bullied". However, I was affected when I was 11 years old. I had a very "close" friend that would also hangout with my arch enemy. I didn't like it...at all, but I dealt with it for my friends sake. But my friend started spending more time with my enemy and it bugged me, I felt I was losing my friend. Being a girl, I did get mad at her over text and told her how I felt that my rival wasn't a good influence on her. My friend tossed me like old news after that. She was hanging around with my enemies crew and could care less about me. Her new friends would give me looks and would say little side comments to me that would send me home crying everday. I didn't want to go to school. I even had thoughts about running away. How I wished I could take back what I said. I got stronger though because I had a true friend stand by me the whole time. That summer, I was going into middle school and I got a stomache ache just thinking about it. I was seperating from my closest friend, my dad was going overseas, and just everything about middle school scared me. About a week before school started, I got these "anonumus" text messages telling me how "dumb", "stupid", "bossy", and what a "bitch" I was. I figured out later that it was my old friend saying all that to me. I was hurt, but it also told me that I have better things than her. I had true friends and family that stuck by my side and didnt call me a "bitch" or "dumb". When school started everything got better. We forgot all about the incident becuase we had more to worry about with school work. Were not as good of friends as we were, but now we smile and talk to eachother unlike after our fight. My main message is to tell girls who are getting bullied that it all gets better, belive me. -


Aly: I'm sorry for being such a jerk to you. Sisters shouldn't treat sisters that way. I should treat you with respect and love. You are just such an amazing girl, and you don't deserve what I've done to you. I love you, Abbi!! - Abbi


Aly: I pledge to not put anyone down with my words or actions and to stand up for those who are being bullied. - Gig Harbor


Aly Robbins: Fifth grade was awful to me! I was the new girl in school, and I knew that everyone hated me from the start. There was one girl in particular though, who instilled such fear in me that I didn't even want to go to school some days. She lead her group of girls around, hating on me and giggling about me behind my back. I had just been silly one day... I didn't do anything too bad! I heard them. They knew it. I think they wanted me to hear them. Another girl, Steph, she became my friend. We had fun together. Everyone hated also because she hung out with me, but she didn't care. That is until she became friends with the mean girl. Steph turned on me one day, and she also became a source of fear to me. They all hated me. I was broken. I wanted my parents to take me out of school. It didn't stop in middle school either. Steph continued to be my friend one week and start hating on me the next, dragging others with her. It wasn't until 8th grade that she decided to become my friend for good... and we have been BEST friends ever since! I am in 10th grade now. -


Olivia: I did not get bulled in till i got to 4th grade because that is when i got glasses. All the girls were making fun of me and i did not know why. I was very sad all the time and for a 10 year old that is not good i would be in my room all the time. But not the way the kids my age would play in my room i would go in my room and block the door then grab something very sharp then iI would cute my self deep.One time I took string and I raped it so tight around my neck i almost killed my self but then I thot of my moms face if she and fond me and then i cryd and i said no thats stupid my family loves me to much. Now that i look back I cant belive I was like that.When i was in 6th grade people called me fat ugley bitch and i could not take it. The boys i hated me. I was way jeles of my best friend Alyssa beacuse she was the one that always look at her and not me so next year i renbled, i smocked and i kissed boys .....and i ahd fun.But now I see the hate in girls and in me. This is going to sould stupid but when i got my boy friend Roby I am so happy that a biy finly sow me for who I am. To all the girls thatread this love your self first and try your very best not to hate the bully(s) to much because then might have a bad life at home or in ther past. -


Alyssa: My parents always ask me why I hang out with boys more than girls. I never really had an answer til I saw your documentary, I realized that You are right girls are mean the only real friends that I have that are girls are two people, Olivia, and Felicia...the rest are boys, my parents don't understand...When I first moved to where I am now I didn't know anybody; a girl across my street seemed nice til later on in the year I found out that she will turn on you for popularity and just to get what she wants, including the guy. I felt unloved by friends and family I didn't have a good relationship with my mom at the time so I could never talk to her so i never her told her the stuff that went on in my life, But when people really started to be mean, untruthful, unjust, and unkind, I let it go and almost hung myself, I couldn't take the pain, it was an emotional tole that was tearing my life apart, but my best friends, Felicia, and Olivia lifted me from my weights of my destruction and lead me to know that I will have friends and that I do, But the pain from the past always drags me down.... -


Anna: I am so sorry for being mean to you in 5th grade. I was just jealous of you and Mckenna I felt like you were taking my friend away. I am so sorry for treating you that way.You probably forgot about it, but I didnt. I am so sorry. - Cece


Brianna: My best friend is also my worst enemy. I love her, she's the only person who's stuck by me through everything. But she's the kind of person that has the power to make or destroy your whole day by just a few words. She constantly makes subtle comments about what I'm eating, what I'm wearing, everything. And it tears down my confidence because she is literally perfect. -


Erin: Well there was this girl at my old school and she tell me that my face was scrude up and that my eye brows were ugly and she was my best friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so I plucked my eye brows and made them really pretty in my oppinion but they were all scrude up!!!!!! Then when I started Middle school I thought things were going to be different. I tried to hang out with the "COOL GROUP" but they all hated me. There was this girl named Jadie the sweetest friend any one could ever have but I thought I was toooo cool for her but she was the best friend anyone could ever have but I treated her like TRASH!!!!!! I COULD NEVER DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH TO SHOW HOW MUCH IM SOOOOO SORRY FOR THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -


Erin: Im sorry for being mean and thinking that you were toooo wierd to be friends with me. I never should have treated you that way because to tell you the truth I think I kinda treated you like trash I feel soo bad. Your better than all those popular girls because even though I treated you badly you never ever did anything like that to me. I'm sooooooooooooooooooo sorry!!!!! - Jadie


Laura: I spend a lot of time online blogging, which has connected me with many girls all over the world. Even though I have never met any of them, I love them all and consider them true friends. Every once in a while, someone who I may have never talked to, or I may be great friends with, admit that they are suicidal and depressed. We always tell them that they deserve better, that we love them and they are worth so much. But one girl said, "I appreciate all of your kind words, but sadly, those who I know in real life, outside the internet, do not agree. I am not worth anything to them or to my family, and I love you all, but you are on the other side of the world, and I am alone here." She took her own life that night, and I am afraid that sending kind messages and love across the internet isn't enough all the time. I want to shake the people from her school, her family, and her bullies, make them realize that they have lost something with that girl. That the world has lost something. -


Remelou: Well, this girl in our school tells me to fuck off her life just because I'm the 1st in the class. And she said a lot of bad things to me. -


Your Name: I pledge to be more kind to people. - City


Kelly: I pledge to try as hard as I can to get my KindClub up and running at my school. Even if my principal doesn't approve it, I will try to create something out of school. Thanks Lauren and Molly for your incredible inspiration! - Mobile, Al


Stacy: Being a mother of daughters is a huge responsibility in today's climate. I pledge to continue to do my best to raise nice girls...it's a damn hard job. Thanks for all you have done to get the ball rolling... - Denver


Stacy: I am the mother of two daughters--aged 16 and 17. Over the years I have seen plenty of incidences where they have been on both ends of girl-on-girl crimes. But what led me to your website was the latest incident with my 16-year-old which didn't just involve another girl but her mother too. If mothers are teaching and encouraging girl-on-girl crime by allowing their daughters to be exclusive, catty, and nasty then we are in for a long haul. I applaud your efforts...it starts with ONE girl (or ONE mother) to stand up for change. I'd love to see this change in my lifetime...thank you for raising the bar... -


Megan: I pledge to be nicer to all the people I know, even the mean ones and to stand up for anyone I see being bullied or harrassed. - Mobile, AL


Megan: I'm sooooo sorry about suzanne & me calling you all those mean names... You started dating like every guy that asked you out and you wore this really short red dress with converse and trey started a rumour that you let every guy feel you up and you sucked every guys dick in the girls bathroom... You moved because everyone wasnt nice to you and your mom because your dad committed suicide and I just felt so bad because part of me was like thank god and another part of me was saying this is your fault you were apart of why she moved... So I'm super sorry and i hope we can be friends again. - Samantha


Megan: 2 of my friends and I were best friends like the 3 muskateers. Friend 1, she started dating the guy friend 2 secretly liked, and they got in this huge fight and made me pick sides and I said that I wasn't going to pick sides and that if they were really friends they would make up and stuff and they got mad at ME and started calling me a bitch and a slut and that i was only friends with them to become popular because I was too ugly to become popular. It was soo sad... I was embarressed to go to school somedays and other days I would be so glad to go because i remembered the friends i had... One of my friends apologized and we are best friends now but the other friend still hates me... -


Anonymous : her life isn't great her mother a drug addict , Father careless and violent. So to sum it up her life isn't to great but i've always been the best friend i ever could possible to her just her. She thinks i am her slave she doesn't want me doing anything else but following her around and doing nothing more than solving her problems and telling her how great she is. When we are in an argument she decides when its over,she decides what i say, who i can be friends with and and what i do. I don't want to be her friend but obviously i don't decide that either. When we are in an argument she just goes off and tells anyone she can think of every secret i have ever told her so what would it be like if i wasn't her friend at all? If i had any choice at all should i be her friend if i know exactly what she will do if I'm not her friend? -

Maddie: A girl at my camp had aspergers. All the other girls and guys made fun of her behind her back and wouldn't talk or sit next to her. When they did talk to her, they said sarcastic comments which secretly made fun of her but she had no idea. I should have done something...but I didn't. And I regret every second of it. -


Jenny: I've been bullied by a group of girls since 4th grade because of my race and this year I've decided to stick up for myself but I did that in a horrible way. Now there is more tension between us then ever before. -


A nobody thats going to start being someone: I have always felt ugly or below others but the thing is it really does not matter. I used to look in the mirror and think why do i have to look like this... but i have decided i am going to change. i am going to love myself and love others! Life is to short to hate... I dont want to wast one more second feeling bad for myself. I am officially proud of every flaw and love myself. Perfect is overraided. I am going to start reaching out to others who i feel might be having a hard time, Thanks to yall i am changing for the good. Please Pray that i will be able to stay strong... it will be hard but it will be AWESOME when i suceed! Thanks girls! i cannot thank yall enough! i love yall and you have probably saved more lives than you can count with what yall are doing. God Bless -

Jensen: I'm sorry for being weird and annoying. I'll try to cam down. I'm sorry for trying to have a little attention. I'm sorry if I spazed out. - All my friends


Jensen: One time this girl and "my best friend" wrote a note to me that was 2 pgs long front and back and it had all the things they thought were wrong with me. another time the same girls and some other girls made up this girl (who was really me) just so they could talk about me in front of my face. and this girl its like every time i get a best friend she takes her from me. no joke. and she is very immature and i know i can be annoying but i'd rather be annoying than be mean. we had finding kind preview at our school the other day and im almost positive it didnt affect her in any way. i know yall say everyone has a story to why they r so mean but shes not bullied at home or anything shes spoiled rotten and it really ticks me off cuz i have to work hard to get what i want but she just gets evrything handed right to her. -


sharon: Im sorry for calling you a stupid wierdo i hope we can be friends -


Teddy-San: All my life I have been trying to be a good and nice girl,but only a few people from my school like me. I am constantly by myself and I get hit,screamed at,teased at,and etc. i hope someone does not get it like I still do. -

Sara: I'm sorry I stole your lover. - Nellie


Francis: My daughter was called Fat this past week. She is 8years old. I saw first hand how strong she is when she told me. I could also feel how she lost a small piece of her that day. I could only hold her and tell her that girls can be mean and in time things can and will be better. -

char: dierdre, javier and judy, you were my close friends and one day i came home and you stopped talking to me, moved out and never spoke to me again. That was 20 years ago and i still think about it everyday and wish i knew what i did to you to make you so angry at me. maybe i should know but i dont and i wish one day someone will tell me so i can understand -


Sydney: I'm sorry I talked behind your back, called you names, and weren't always my nicest. I didn't act like the best friend that I should be. Truth is, I'm just really jealous of you. You're tan, blonde, you have all the friends, you have the boyfriend and all the guy friends, you're a cheerleader, you look awesome all the time with no effort, and everybody loves you. - Ann Bradley


Georgia: I've had an eating disorder for 3 years now, I'm anorextic, For 2 years I have kept it secret. I had to go Doctors appointments all the time for pills,sometimes I have to force feed my self. It started when I was in infants school, I wasn't bullied because I was anorextic but I was very tall, my dad is 6ft so my height is one of my genes. I used get pushed and tripped over and friendless. The bullies then used pick on me and call me names because they thought if the pick on tall kids the small ones would back down. I felt really hurt then I decided tell a teacher and she helped me feel unique. When I went up junior school, I really trusted my best friend and decided to tell her I was anorexitic, she swore to keep it a secret, She kept it a secret until the end of year 4, beggining of year 5 she blurted it out to her new best friend charmaine just because she thought she could blurt it out cuz were in different classes. Every since then she and other girls ave being call me names like skinny winny and started just being a bully. I ignored the names and thought about the lessons my primary teacher tought me to feel unique until the point I started satying behind classes, get punched in my stomack so It cause me more pain and then crying. I told my headteacher and told them stay away from me and we have a stamp system where if you be good you get a stamp but if you lose more than 3 sttamps you lose you treat and they lose 3 months worths of stamps. Now I still get teased by them and other girls but I found friends that understand what I am going through, they made me feel more proud and happy in myself, I still get tablets that help me eat and lose the pain. Thanks to the kind campaign, I have been reading how to deal with these problems like mine and they have really help me become a better person. -


Maya: i am so sorry that the thought ever crossed my mind about not wanting to be your friend anymore. you are the best friend i could ask for and one of the most amazing people i know. you are smart, kind and beautiful, inside and out. thank you for always being there for me, and i want you to know i will always be here for you too. - Maia


Chloe: When I was in seventh grade two people I thought were my really good friends told me they didn't want to be my friend for three reasons but I can't remember them exept one: that they didn't like how I talked loudly. I then cried for the next 10 minuets and walk to my next class with people asking if I was ok , i said I was fine when all I wanted to do was go home. Once in class this girl who was one of "those" girls who was mean to me asked if I was ok. In that moment my take on her changed. She's not as mean as I thought. -


allie: im sorry bestfriend for hurting you so much i love you so much - olivia


allie: In about fourth grade i started devolpeing way faster than everyone else i was very very tall and just bigger than everyone and i really stuck out in the crowd, everyday for about 3 months.One day before we got off school for break all i can rember is all the mean girls saying "you must be glad were on break so you can just go home and eat and eat and eat." that hurt and whenever we got back to school they had made up the cruel cruel name the whale. one day we were drawing and they drew a picture on the white board for the whole class to see that had a very large circle labeled with my name and abunch of sayings like i cant see my toes and why am i so huge. also they would always just look me up and down and laugh.Also they drew a notecard of me and just laughed about it, i took up the whole note card. its been 4 years but i still canot get over it, everyday i look in the mirroir and wonder why they said that, because it follows me around everywhere i go. its why im so self concious. i still know the mean girls i sit next to one of them in english i cant look at her the same. fourth grade was the worst year of my life and i truley wanted to die. -


Allie Fulcher :): Iv'e been hurt before too, like other girls around America. Today at my school- Salmon Bay k-8 in Seattle Washington- (I'm in 6th grade this year) we watched the film and my friends from homeroom sat there together as the video began. I didn't think it would touch my heart as much as it did. But watching all those people crying, speaking about death wishs, telling a hard story made me cry. Because it was true all of it. That hurt. Knowing we hurt people as an first instinct, hurt. It reminded me of how cruel people - especially girls can be. I'm in a BIG group of friends and we fight alot! In our little group we have a queen bee her followers and everyone else. WE FIGHT OVER THE DUMBEST THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( this is a poem about it: Grumble Grumble Fight Fight Gee... I hope I look alright! and we make such a big deal out of media issues and gossip I think it's sad! A constant thing that happens to me is being back sassed it's an insult that sounds nice- only it's not it can be obviously mean or subtle this is what one of my best friends said to me a couple weeks ago on the soccer feild when I messed up on my kick "Oh come on Allie, at least you TRYED that's what counts very funny only I didn't fail or anything- it still went pretty far! I hate the tone of vioce she used on me! HOW DARE SHE?! and the other day on of my friends said, because I'm special ed and I have a special ed class "Oh RIGHT your in homework club NICE!" Actually alot of my friends have commented on me being special ed. It's sooooo funny only NOT to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Back to the video that we watched- When it was over me and my friends did a group hug and went back to class. Later, when we were doing apoloage cards one of my friends who I'd been fighting will gave me one and I gave her one back and we made up!:) You guys work magic and I hope we can all join together to stop bullying! Luv Allie, :) -

Meghan H.: Dear all the popular people at my school.. including Sam, Amber, Gina... I am sorry for ever talking about you behind your backs... even though i was talking about all the mean things you have done. - Sam Amber Gina


Meghan Hanlon: My name is Meghan... Here is my story. It all started in 6th grade when this girl named Sam. Were werent that close until she started to get bullied by all of her freinds. First, I was the only one who really stood up for her. Then my freinds helped her out. We were all becomming so close... when it happened. One january day, all the popular girls that hated sam invited her back into the group, totally excluding me and my friends. I felt crushed ... She apologized... i sadly forgave her, even tho it wasnt a true apology. 7th grade was Ok... but at the end of the year she called me a terrible actress and put all of my friends down and started rumors about all us. Now its 8th grade and she and the popular group have basically ostrasized me from their entire group. We just watched the movie and they all hugged me while i cried and said sorry... but i dont know if they were being true or not... since they lied b4... idk what to do -

Claire Randolph : I've spent 10 years with an eating disorder. A couple years after it first developed, I was at my lowest weight. One of the girls in my old school purposely called me fat, "Little Debbie Cakes", and many other derogatory names. As my illness progressed and it became more noticeable, she then began telling everyone about my illness (something which she knew nothing about the truth of). I used to wish that she'd get fat, become friendless, and even develop disordered eating habits. … Years later, I dropped out of my highschool, went into homeschooling and graduated eary. I'm in college now, and at a close friend's wedding, I was a bridesmaid with this girl that had spent so many years making my life hell. The night of the bachelorette party, all of us girls met up to get together. Everything I had wished on her had become true. I overheard her talking to our friend getting married that she suffers from binge eating disorder (her bridesmaid dress no longer fit compared to a month ago), as a means to cope with the death of her father when she was a child…. My father passed away the year I graduated highschool. While you see no error in how you treated me and so many other girls in gradeschool, I'm sorry that all of the horrible things I wished on you came true. You and I are have more things in common than I'd ever care to voice aloud. I hope you find your way out of this dark tunnel. There's light on the other end. I'm sorry we never talked to one another. I feel like maybe we could've helped each other out, if things had even been just the slightest bit different. -


Amoya: One day we were at school in an assembly and I was shouting good job to the people who got awards and this girl starts talking to another girl about me and I said to my friend what's er problem and she just turned around and talked more and more about me and inside I felt really hurt and betrayed because we were friends and now I feel like she's my enemy.When girls go behind your back and start talking about you just say "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me!" -


Julie: I pledge to be kind and to say something nice to at least three people everyday. -


Savanna: No one deserves to be treated poorly. Many girls at my school are, and that's not a good thing. Being put down and bullied doesn't feel good. Everyone deserves to be treated kindly. Just because people look different, doesn't mean its a bad thing. We should stand up for each other, not put each other down. I know how it feels. We do this to each other. We have all been victims. -

I also saw a lot of girls hugging and apologizing. I know you guys used to go to my school and I think that you know the atmosphere, it is so great that people stand up for you. Keep up the good work. -


ANHE: I am sad because I and my clasmate were fighting each other. -


Nicole Maniez: As a woman in my thirties who has a daughter and works with youth, it breaks my heart to remember the confusion and struggle of growing up. Having been on both sides of mean, today I work to create space for girls and women to explore their membership in sisterhood and community... what it means to raise up yourself and others. Together we stand stronger. Let us forgive each other and ourselves. Let us support each others brilliance. -


R: I know you're not going to read this, but i'm sorry I stopped talking to you. I don't have a reason, and it's idiotic, but I don't. I didn't mean to stop being friends with you, being friends isn't like being in a relationship, you don't just break it off. I'm an awful person for what I did, but I'm glad you'll still ask me what period is next in school. Atleast you still talk to me. - A

It's not even your fault and I know you did nothing wrong and I hope you know that everything I've ever said that was mean is a lie. Your wonderful and beautiful and intelligent and i should've know better than to ever say otherwise.. - Girls in General


Becca: My "friend" spread a rumor to my "best friend" that i had called her a selfish bitch while at my house. This was NOT true. The next day at school, I sat down at our usual table, just to see my group of friends stop, shoot me a dirty look, and then sit down a few tables away. I started to cry and ran off to the bathroom until a teacher came and took me to the counciler's office. I stayed home for about the next 2 weeks because i said i had the "stomach flu", when really, it was because i had no friends and was depressed. By the end of that year (7th grade) i had made a whole ton of new "friends" in the popular crowd, and i was happier than ever before. I was getting invited to parties and shopping for stylish, expensive clothes.But then during the summer, i didn't hear a word from any of my new "friends". After spending another depressing summer alone, i was glad to get to 8th grade and see everyone again. None of the girls would talk to me. They didn't even have a reason. They just stopped. So, on the first day of school i sat with one other girl, who couldn't fit into her friends' table. Then the bullying began. My former friends told me that i needed a nose job, and that my voice was too deep for me to be a girl. And when i had a crush on this guy i liked who also happened to like me back, they told him that i was a stalker and i was obsessed with him, so he never talked to me again. Now, i never get invited to the parties, i never go shopping, and i never get to hang out with anyone, all because they thought i was a popular bitch, when really i just got left by all the popular bitches in the dust. I just wish one person would ask me to hang out with them or actually talk to me when i try to talk to them. I want just ONE friend to be there for me. -

Katy Lund: She hates me, we've been best friends since 1st grade, and she hates me because her ex-boyfriend likes me. I didn't ask him to like me, I don't want him to like me, this isn't my fault and she's telling people that I ruin her day whenever she see's me. What did I do? How can I possibly fix this? I don't understand what I did wrong. -

Erin: I pledge to try my best to treat others the way I want my daughter and myself treated. I accept that I am not perfect, so when I slip up, I will do my best to make ammends. - LaFayette, NY


Erin: I am an adult, mother of a young girl, PTA member and a Girl Scout leader. All through Elementary, High School and even as an adult in the workplace, I was bullied. The worst agressors were always female. One day they were your bffs, sharing secrets and braiding your hair. The next, your secrets were being whispered as you walked down the hall toward a girl who was waiting to challenge you to a fight or who would later ambush you as you walked home from school.(Or spreading rumors at work to prevent you from getting a promotion.) It is more than 20 years since the abuse began and I still have scars. I WILL NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO MY DAUGHTER!!! I have seen girls as young as Kindergarten repeating this pattern. It is no mystery where this is learned, as I have witnessed it among the "mature" Moms of the PTA and have even had "adults" mock other mom's daughters at Girl Scout meetings. The only changes are that there are now MORE and EASIER ways to be mean. It has taken becoming a mother for me to stand up and even at first, it was only as a "Momma Bear." Standing up for myself came much later. I pray that I am a good example for my daughter and my scouts. I hope I can show them how to be good and kind. I wish that "mean girls" were only a cautionary tale and not a harsh reality. -


Arooj: I pledge 2 think of others before i say anything about them and i pledge to remember what people have taught me when i get bullied - Toronto


Arooj: Im sorry for making fun of u and never sticking up for u and i just wish i can go in the future and change that. Im really really sorry! - Amna


Arooj Naghman: ive been bullied before from a girl that i taught was my friend. She made fun of me and called me fat, ugly and also a bitch. The story started when i was in grade 6. She was my best friend but she just used me because she wanted 2 be the popular girl at school. We were in the talent show and she made a mistake and use 2 gossip that i made the mistake all the time. People use 2 call me "the embarrassment". She even told the guy i liked that i liked him and i didnt want her 2. After she told me she didn't want 2 be my friend because she taught i was an embarassment. She would lie 2 my mom saying that she hit me or she punched me in the face when i didnt do anything. My mom yelled at me and after that i wish i were dead. I would cry everyday in my room and even at school. She even lied that my other friends told her not 2 be her friend when they didnt. I was so happy when she moved back 2 Chicago. She still had my number and now she calls me a bitch everyday. I wish i taught her how cruel she can be. Now i feel like i didnt do anything. But now i think of it i dont cry and i let it go. I want her 2 nevercome back ever again and that reason is only cause of this campaign. -


Dianne: I pledge to stop saying and thinking bad things about other girls. I realize that I only do it because of my own insecurities. I worry my boyfriend is looking at prettier, skinnier, younger, more fun girls and it scares me a lot. - City


Thea: I pledge not to make fun of someone of what they look like and to never, ever judge a girl by her cover and to not bully. - Elyria


Taylor Chanes: My close friend went after the guy I liked. In return, I convinced him to break up with her and then not even a day later, I hooked up with him. I did everything in my power to get him from her, and in the end neither of us got him, but I was the one with the broken heart, while she had a broken trust. I feel horrible for doing that to her behind her back while EVERYONE around her knew what was going on. - Corissa Burdette


Taylor Chanes: I have not been the best person, but I do not deserve to be judged by my appearance. In middle school, there were alot of asian kids. They discriminated because I am mexican. They made me feel like I was not good enough. They were very hurtful. When I finally went to a school counselor, I was after made fun of because I told. It wasn't until I lost my mom, that they started to be nice to me. after 3 years of hatred from them, I was afraid to even talk to them when they were "being nice". It wasn't until 4 years had gone by that I finally DIDN'T CARE about them anymore and I was able to recover from that traumatic experience. -


Asher Herrmann: During the seventh grade (now) I have been called pimple face and zit face and many things similar to that and sometimes even by my own best friend. It makes me feel like everyone would be better if i just left. I have also been called the same things by many boys and that ,makes me feel like i'll never get married or get my first kiss. I know God says that he loves us and we shouldn't care what others think but I doubt that a lot. -

Fiona N.: I use to always be picked on for the way I feel, I never really had true friends,but I was blind folded by lies. Out of all 4 of my best friends, 2 of them would always talk behind my back and pick on me, They thought it was okay, a few days before my friends confronted one of my best friends for throwing basketballs at me, all she had to reply was " So? I've done that since grade 4 and we're still friends." They'd call me drama queen and emo for trying to kill myself or cry over something that they've done. Now I can fully see who's my true friend, and who's just there to use you. -

Sad Phoebe: I pledge to stop. Stop hating others. Just stop. No one deserves to feel how I feel. Only me. I did something to deserve this pain but no one else. - Green Bay


Phoebe: In fifth grade when you were in our forth fifth class mix and I was popular I let it get to my head. I called you a follwer and other things. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Please don't hate me. I hate myself too much. - Gayle


Phoebe: After all these years the truth is now being drilled into my mind. I'm fat. I'm ugly. I'm stupid. I stopped eating for a while. A girl came up to me in the hallway and she said, "I'm doing a project on famines. Could I interveiw you?" No matter what I do I'm not perfect. I have blonde hair and blue eyes. But not the right kind. I know the Barbie doll is supposed to be bad but I want to be like Barbie. She's perfect. We all have scars. I just wear mine on the inside. To protect my family. They don't know half of my life. I hate sports and my dad wants me to do them. I like acting. I wish I could tell him. My friends do sports and want me to join but I don't want to. I HATE SPORTS! I HATE MY FAT, UGLY SELF! I just want to cry sometimes. I do all the time. But then I get made fun of because I'm not wearing mascara or make up. I hate life sometimes. I look at our medicine cabinet sometimes and wonder how long it would take for me to die after putting the pills in my mouth. -


Phoebe Olderman: I was bullied a lot. I like to express myself through clothes and hair and some people make fun of me. I remember the in the third week of middle school I bought new clothes and wore the outfit. My BEST FRIEND asked if I would change into my gym clothes. It was a sparkly T-shirt and skinny white jeans. I wore a pink velvet bow in my hair. By fourth hour kids were shouting "Hey look it's project runway! I see her outfit, now I want to run-away!" It really hurt. Soon my friend asked if I would change MY LAUGH. She had a problem with THE WAY I LAUGHED. I spent my third hour in the girl's bathroom crying. Now I still haven't toId my friends. I wish I could. I want to. But I'm too scared. -


Phoebe: I'm sorry to a girl who is now a close friend. She is a year younger than me and was in my fifth fourth grade class mix. I was a popular fifth grader and it went to my head. I called her a follwer behind her back. I'm so sorry Gayle. I hope this won't hurt our friendship. -


A Broken Heart: I pledge to always stand up for those who have been or who are being bullied so that they can feel the feeling of a strong friendship the way i have. - City


A Broken Heart: i have been bullied for 6 years. I have been slappedand people have wrote mean notes about me. I have had people crush my dreams. To this day i feel scared and shy and i feel like i can't trust people. Others actions have changed me completely. My mom said i used to be all smiles. Now I feel like im wearing a mask. As time passes i can feel the mask slowly coming off. Kids giggle while i do things and I immediately believe i have done something wrong. i have received notes saying things like "You suck at everything." or "Stop trying to be a know it all." . I once tried to audition for a play and right after my audition a girl asked me "Are you sure you want to do this? I mean there is singing and it doesn't seem like you handle stage fright very well." . I am actress and im not gonna let anyone tell me otherwise. I have amazing friends now who are always there if i need to cry. Even though i feel somewhat worthless i know im a shining pearl in my friends eyes. To everyone else how has been bullied~ Please dont go off killing or cutting yourself! I know how you feel you are NOT alone! there are people who love you. You just gotta find the right person -


A.Crystal: People make fun of me just because I look different. They say everytime I jump the whole world shakes, they say Im not pretty enough too be a girl. I have a lot of bad things to say everytime they make fun of me but I don't because thats not who I am. My best friends don't stick up for me instead they just laugh along. It really hurts when they do that but I don't show it because I don't want the bullies to know Im scared. I feel sorry for the bullies because they have nothing to do but make fun of pretty girls like me. -

Well that year i lost all my friends no one liked me the two new girls started rumers that made me uncomfortable and cry.

Emma Joy Balllard: I had spred a rumor about my friend. She did not like it she had felt scared and upset. I had told her who had did it and she understood why. She said thank you for telling me. She had understood why i had started it in the first place. I now knew that what they had said hurt her. So i had the guts n started a new rumor about me. To get the old one about her out. I felt good about it. She was happy and so was i. What they had said about me i did not care. Because i knew that it was a good reason why it had gotten started. -


KatieBeth: I get bullied a LOT. Some people think i am gross, and some think i am mean. This is not true about me, but I cry. I think they are just doing that to suck out my self esteem. -


Maddie Erickson: I will try to be nice to people, even if they're not my friend and to always be considerate of other people's feelings. - Pacific Grove


Sydney: I'm so tired of being told I'm nothing; people have told me that since I was old enough to be in school. I was always the weird girl. After a few years; I just got tired of trying to prove them wrong; and I accepted everything they were saying. I still do. I believe I'm ugly, and fat, and just once; I wish I could be beautiful. -


11 years old: I dress driffrent than outher people and get made fun of it because of it yea they wear pink and stuff and i wear black but that doesnt mean they should think what they want just by looking at how i dress. They see me wear my jacket ALL day i NEVER take it off and it's their fault, they made me so mad and sad and more feelings that i couldn't take it so I have these cuts on my arm, they are from trying to take the feelings away or just trying to kill myself.

a: Try being bullied by 60+ kids, I had two whole classes of children bully me the same year, PLUS rumors spreading from GUYS--yes, guys--I refused to sleep with or date and girls who made up in their mind I was trying to steal their 'boyfriends'. Assumptions lead nowhere good, I'll tell you...if they would've talked to me, instead of attempting to spread rumors and do mean things to me, there wouldn't have been a problem. Ladies, for us to be the sex who talks the MOST, we sure do suck at using communication for what it's meant to be used for. -

Your Name: Your Pledge - City


Elyse: I'm sorry for being so upset at you I didn't even want to speak to you. I was just mad, I really just wanted to talk things over. - Melissa


Shannon : I pledge to stop bullying anytime is see it. I pledge to help anyone in need of a friend who has been bullied. I pledge to not take part in female bullying. And most important, I pledge to spread the word about the kind campaign and about the harms of bullying. Be kind, Make a friend(: - Monroe

Anon: I pledge to stop using terms like stupid, slut, whore, fat, ugly, and bitch to my friends, me, and my other peers. They are extremely rude. - Toronto


Anon: I'm sorry I've called you stupid and that I've made you cry so many times. I really want to restart, you are my best-friend and I love you more then you can imagine. - Laura


Anon: My bestfriend in grade 6 would only talk to me when her 'popular' friends weren't looking. It used to kill me inside. All my true friends used to tell me to give up everytime I would finally decide too, she would catch on and call me up and ask to hang out. We had been best-friends since grade 2 and I didn't want to lose her. I don't understand why I had to go through that, she was supposed to be my best-friend. After when we went to different schools, by choice, we drifted. Now despite how I felt in Grade 6, I treat my best-friend like that. I trick her, and I call her names like stupid. I've made her cry too many times. It makes me feel really bad, but I don't know why I don't stop. -


Savanna: I'm so sorry I made fun of you and laughed at you just because everyone else did. It's not your fault you have a deformity. Your beautiful inside and out. I'm so sorry. - Lauren


bethany martin: I'm bullied because I'm short and skinny I'm beat up, yelled at ,insulted and its only because I'm not pretty -


Ashlee: I am sorry I stopped being your only friend because of what others thought of you. - Lindsay


S: I appologize for the way I ended our friendship, you did so much for me. - K


Soo Kyong: I am so sorry for leaving you in 7th grade, even though you were always by my side. I left you because you were not popular and many people told me I should stop being friends with you. Stupidly, I agreed. You tried to make our friendship last, but I cut it off. Now we're juniors in high school and I regret so much. I tried to rekindle our friendship, but you obviously do not want to do that. I completely understand because I know how hurt and angry you are. I wouldn't want to be friends with me either after I left you high and dry. Also, you gave me so many chances before but I never took them. I am so sorry I left you for a group of people who are not even my friends. I really admire you because you were still able to pull it through and now you are even more beautiful than you were before. Comparing myself to you, I feel so embarrassed because you were always the great best friend while I wasn't even a friend. Now, you have tons of friends while I feel so alone and stupid.You are happy (and you deserve to be happy) while I am so miserable right now. I tried to apologize to you before, but because of my pride and fear of rejection, I never was able to do it. I know posting my apology on the web isn't the same thing as telling you in person, but I just need to get it out there. It's really hard to find a true friend, let alone a great true friend. I was stupid to not see that I had one before. Please forgive me. I am not asking you to be my friend immediately. Please let me earn your friendship and trust. I really miss you. - Olivia


Alex: The Kind campaign came to my school today and it was life changing. A couple years back, in middle school there was this girls I knew. She was fairly popular, well she had friends and Im not sure exactly what happened but her friends turned on her. I tried to really hard to be friends with her, but i we didn't have any classes together so it was difficult. I simply thought that her and her friend had gotten into a little bit of a fight, so I didn't think that much of it. After we watched the documentary Finding Kind she told me, in detail how she was affected by what happened between her and her friends. She told me how they would plan all they ways to embarrass her and how physically hurt her. She was never in any physical pain that i know of, but the things she told me were crazy. I didn't even realize how she was getting bullied, i was right there and apparently the things they said to her were very hurtful. i didn't realize how much words could hurt, i've never been bullied or if people say mean things to me I just laugh it off, because really i don't care what people think. I wish that i could've been there for her because by the end of middle school she had barley one friends, me. i wish that i could've tried hard to be there for her cause she really is a great person. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR DOING THIS!!!! It really opened my eyes to so many things. - Nicole


Courtney: i used to have this friend and she was reeeeealy funny and kind. we used to go shopping together. one day i went to her house to hang out and we talked about stuff in her room. she said that she had to go to the bathroom so she went out and i waited for her. but when she came back, her mum was with her looking really mad. i was going to ask what was wrong when her mum asked why i said mean stuff to my friend and punched her and kicked her. i had no idea what was going on but i didn't have the courage to say that i didn't do those things to my friend. then, my friend's mum called my mum and told her what happened. my mum was so angry that she picked my up early and she told me not to do it again. the next day, my firend spread around so many rumours about me and no-one wanted to be my friend. then, all the other kids made fun of every single detail about me and pushed me around in the playground. they even wrote bad things about mee that wern't true in the girls' bathroom. i stayed home for 1 week and my friend kept saying rude stuff to me on the computer. i cired alot and spent all my spare days in my bedroom. my mum asked what was wrong and i told her all about the teasing and the punching at school. i then got trasported to anoher school and i have really nice friends now. i still don't know why my friend told so many lies about me. -


Luisa: a few months ago a rumor was spread around my class that i liked this guy who no-one liked much. my class thought that because he liked me even though i didn't like him and he used to talk to me in class and try to get my attention and hang out with me in sport-time. then, the day i found out that rumour, one of my friends came up to me at lunch and asked: "Hey, do you have like, a partner in your class?" from then on, i wanted to keep away from the guy because he was getting annoying. once, me and the guy were walking to the lunch area and he was just talking and talking and talking and i was just trying to get away from him and then one of my friends saw and she came in between us and said: "Oh, you're having a nice chat, are you? So, when's your date?" then all her friends started laughing and i just wanted to run away and cry. i told the teacher about it and she talked about it to the class. she didn't say any names, just saying the situation. then, my class stopped saying the rumour and the guy kind of didn't like me anymore. i'm glad i had the courage to say that to the teacher. i kinda feel proud of myself :) -


Kathryn : Renate, I know that it has been over 10 years since I wrote that horrible note, and that I have already apologized for the unkind things that I said to you...but sometimes I still think about it and I feel so sad and heartbroken that I was unkind and immature enough to think that something like that note was acceptable. I have searched for you on Facebook to add you as a friend and see how you are doing after all of these years, but it looks like you don't have one. I remember in high school, right before you moved, that you had a notebook for people's contact info. so that you could stay in touch with your friends. I was really happy that you had forgiven me for all of my unkind acts in middle school and Jr. High and that you asked me for my email address and phone number. But then, you were gone. I haven't heard anything about you or your family, and I hope that by posting this online that somehow, some way, you will know that you are still thought of and loved by one of the girls who used to be so horrible to you. Are you doing alright? Are you happy? I truly hope that you are. I am so sorry for how I treated you. I am so happy that we parted on good terms. http://youtu.be/CQJaZO2nfGg If you ever find this, please find me and let me know how you're doing. I'm on Facebook and I would love to hear from you - Renate


Samantha: Im in seventh grade and it is torture to me. This year someone physically hit me. What did I do to them to make them do that to me? I get called fat, ugly, and nobody wants to see my face. The counsler at my school just says to ignore the bullies. I cant ignore somebody if they're physically hitting me. I always sit alone at lunch while everybody else has friends. Apparently, the people in my grade see me as the "weird kid." -


Jannie: One time I got my period and some stupid slut made fun of me :( -


Nekisa: I pledge in your honor. I pledge that I will never stand by and watch someone else become a victim. I will never allow myself to be a victim or turn this on another friend. I will be a friend to everyone - no matter their story. I want everyone I ever meet to know that I will always be there for them, even if they just want to say hello. I pledge to be your friend. - Newport Beach


Nekisa: I wish I could tell you this in person, but because of what happened I will never be able to. You left this world before I had a chance to become the person I am today, the friend I could have been for you. I am so sorry that I wasn't there for you, that I was so oblivious to the world around me and to someone in need. I wish that things could have gone differently and even though it's not much I hope this is a start. I am sorry I didn't tell you any of this any sooner, before it was too late. I'm sorry. But never forget that you were always loved, no matter what. - Stephanie


Nekisa: Despite being a victim of bullying myself, I wasn't strong enough to stand up and speak out against the mean comments and actions of others towards other girls that were in the same situation myself. It got to the point that I found that all of a sudden I was the bully. I took the same words and actions that hurt me in the past and turned this same attitude on another girl. I didn't realize what had happened - who I had become - until it was too late. -


PurplegoonSwagZ: I kindly pledge, to help girls in my high school that go through bullying. To keep them strong, and help them out of it. because i dont want others to go through what my bestfriend and I wen through, it hurts more than anything. - Toronto


-unknownZ: I am going through so much in highschool right now, and its not funny to see my life break down because of 5 girls, that are just straight bitches to me. They bully me emotionally, and exclude me because they think i'm too good for them:( I cut myself, because I cant take the pressure. I get pressure from every way, from school, to being the eldest in the family. i cant take it. The self-confidence I had is slowly fading away, but I'm trying to get it back, but I lost hope. i don't know what to do, sometimes I wish that i was never truly me:( -


Kate: Hey :-) I am almost 50 and i cry still every time I think of my pain in middle school. I don't know if I will ever understand how I became a target. There is no rational, single "reason". Then I went to a very poor, third-world country. I saw big problems. Disease. No sanitation. No food. No education. Death from all sorts of manageable issues. Pain and suffering not limited by age, gender, or quality of character. I knew that the tormentors back home were so SMALL! They did not understand that they could CHOOSE to be kind, instead of causing more pain. The world has too much pain and I choose kindness! I have not always succeeded. But I strive for that mark. I have yet to either confront or forgive my tormentors. It makes me less and I pray someday to be strong enough to shine the light on what they did to me. it will release me. Thank you for letting me share this... Healing comes in steps -

Mollie: I thought I had a best friend until I began 6th grade and she decided I wasn't cool enough for her. But instead of just growing apart, she decided to make my life a living hell for 2 years. I was constantly bullied at school and online; told I was hated, a loser, annoying, etc. I believed it for 2 years until I got fed up. I realized that I had other friends but I wasn't utilizing them because I thought I needed to be part of the "cool group." I cut myself off from the girls who bullied me and made friends with girls who WANTED to be my friend. I've never looked back since. I hope younger girls can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If you don't like your situation--change it. You have the power to make your life better. -


April: I pledge to never bully,hurt, or beat a girl ever! And pledge to everyone around me will do the same too - Hallsville


April: I was bullied for being short. I had a bff that turned on me and used me as her puppet to show off her friends. She said things to me like midget or an elf, gnome. I moved to a different school a year later and i found greater friends than I ever did. Thank you Mommy and Daddy! Then a new girl also moved in and she....she made dumb rumors about me thinking she was going to be the queen on the school. I simply walked away to hide my tears. Her dad was a business man and moves to places,so the girl moved far far away. After I heard those rumors I didnt say anything because I remembered the Kind Campaign. You helped me, Thank you -


Lilly: I''m sorry Krystal that we have separated as friends so much. I'm sorry that in middle school and now in high school I told personal information and embarrassing things about you and you're family. I did have my reasons at the time though; my own life and family was falling apart at the time and you're life seemed to be going perfect and I was jealous. I wish we could go back to the way we used to be. I pledge to be KIND. - Krystal

Theresa: My so called best friend betrayed me and told my secrets and told rumors about me in the 3rd grade. She turned the school against me. i became suicidal and a cutter. I was cutting on and off. I recently got help this past year and I've finally started to heal -


Kate: Me and my sister never get along. she bullies me constantly and has my whole life. she uses her depression as an excuse for everything, but its been years and she is better now. i just want to have a normal family. my parents love her more, she gets everything she wants. i just wish that maybe once someone would notice that IM upset and crying alone in the bathroom. but no one ever does, because im just the stupid little sister. -


Gwyneth Chelsea Anne: Cousin Viel I'm sorry for being mean to you I realized that i wasn't kind to you not you not being kind to me after I heard a story from my mom about you doing things for me as me only a single child you were like a sister. Sorry again - Viel Mylene


Gwyneth Chelsea Anne: I am in grade 5 after an incident that I embaressed myself infront of my classmates, they start teasing saying poor,stupid, planking girl those really hurt me its like me trap in a sphere of teasing and bad, I was empty no kindness found, at lunch when I go in they already laugh at me I cant take it anymore. I just make lunch at home and eat it at a private section. But I was crying cant stop the emotion.Then after I watch a video here at www.Kindcampaign.com I realized that I just need to be myself and with my family with my side I can just fight the bad fearsome of my classmates teasing me. After the next semester I talk to them that even tough you tease me I dont Care I just need to be myself after that they want them to let me eat with them at lunch I was happy to have them back. So some girls out there be yourself. -


Anonymous: Dear little curly brown-haired girl in grade one, I sincerely apologize for pulling your hair, insulting you and taking away your freedom and childhood happiness for a period of time. Even the little mean things that I did when we were kids. I'm sorry, I truly am sorry for hurting you and I hope with entirety that you are a happy girl right now and you are living the life you always wanted to live. I don't know where you are right now, but if it were possible, I would go back in time to redo the things I've done and said to you that were hurtful. I am sorry. You may not even remember it at all, but I still want to apologize for my behavior towards you. Love, older me now. - Her Name


Sierra: I was in grade 4 and i was bullyed by a bunch of people and they would call me ugly and fat andi would have no friends. but that all changed when i went into grade 5 and i got a group of friends and they were my friends until they turned on me and said that i had lied to them when i dident say anything but than i was told that one of the girls i hang out with was making fun of me behined my back...... -


Ashley Lynn: When i was 10 years old this girl would make fun of me. She would say i had a disease and for everyone to keep away from me..... It made me sad that people would do that to me even when i thought she was a good friend. It affected me in a major way. So i hope people would stop the bullying! -

Someone who was greatly touched and inspired by Lauren and Molly : I kindly pledge to be kind to all girls . I kindly pledge to stand up for anyone and everyone getting bullied. I kindly pledge to treat others with love and respect, just the way i would like to be treated. :) - Mississauga, ON , CANADA


...: I can't say I have been bullied but I know how it feels,just the same. People would pick on me, sometimes tease me or call me names. It wasn't major because most of the time, it came in the course of a friendly conversation. But it hurts... Just because I am not the BEST ATHLETE in town, doesn't mean you have to laugh at me! My old school was like that....kind of like there was no one I could trust. My own BFF would talk about me behind my back but I was so desperate and when she apoligized, I just laughed and forgot it. But it hurts............. My friend was in her garden (3 houses away from mine) with a whole bunch of people there. They were laying some sort of game and she told them all to hurry before I came, not knowing that I was in my own garden, picking roses with my back turned to her. Another day, when I cried so badly because of everything that happened to me that day (insecurity) on her front porch. I was supposed to go into her house for the evening till my mom came back from work. She told me that she did care and she was my friend. I laughed and dried my eyes saying that I was acting. She grinned and rushed ahead inside, while I was left behind, still whimpering. I know it gets worse and I should be thankful and I surely am. I have now moved and am in a different place. Here, even when someone doesn't get along, NO ONE BULLIES THE OTHER. Absolutely no one that I have seen. I am glad to be here and not to face the pressure of middle school and high school in my older school. Bullying is bad, feels bad and ruins lives... Just hang on- KINDness Campaign is going to stop everything! 3 cheers for them! -


Zainab: I am usually last to have the latest things in clothing and in technology. I also happen to be overweight. I try to not be around the other girls who are slim and have everything they want. A lot of girls get pushed out of the 'in' group for not having cool thing or to not be slim as a stick. That's just how it goes in my school. But now I'm trying to not think of the worst. And I'm gonna try to lose weight so I have more self esteem. Thank You Kind Campaign -

Gina: I pledge to stop judging people by their looks, to stop making comments about other girls, and to be kind and open-hearted to everyone I meet. I pledge to be a more beautiful person by inspiring others to do the same. - Los Angeles


G: Freshman year of high school I gained a lot of weight. I don't know if it was from puberty or depression or both but I was not a "skinny" girl. A lot of people made fun of me for it. I remember getting questions on my formspring saying "you shouldn't have your belly button pierced because you're too fat." I also remember one guy told me, "you're really pretty and I would date you if you lost 20 pounds." Junior year, my best friend found a new best friend and together they would make fun of me for being a "fat, ugly, slut." Girl use weight against each other for simple reasons. It's easy to target, and it hurts. The thing is, I've lost 30 pounds since then. I can change my body, but they can't change the fact that the things they did and said made them ugly. They have no idea that all of the hateful things they said are the reason that I now have an eating disorder. I know that my weight loss won't stop the gossip though. They've found other ways to hurt me. I had a rumor about me spread through multiple schools about me having gonorrhea. I know that now that I'm thin, I'll be more of a target for jealous girls. The thing is, when you're being bullied, you never feel good enough. Suicidal thoughts come from feeling hopeless. The bullying needs to stop. -


souths kind klub<3: every girl knows it hurts. we promise not to talk about girls behind their backs. treat girls the way you want to be treated. i promise to always stick up for my friends. i will try my best to prevent getting the bully back, and stick up for the victium. i wont let the words get to me. im worth it. walk away because what she said ISN'T TRUE! - chicago

Izzy: I'm sorry to everyone I've hurt. we all do it sometimes and its so hard not to talk behind peoples backs or embarress them, but if we all try and realize what we're doing then we can fight hate together. we have to realize we are all on the same level and that if we want to make it through our lives happily, we have to unite and love one another. we can find kind. - everyone I\'ve hurt ever

Izzy weinberg: i have a cousin who I've always been there for, and this year she has become such a different person. she makes me cry more than anything else and all i want is so to be free of the torture. i never thought i would be the kind of person to ever think of dying, but i did one day, just wondered if she's even change. i always live in constant fear of her making fun of me or bullying me. this site has really helped me. thank you so much. -

alison: I am sorry for hitting you and being mean. I never really meant it. Please stay my friend - andrew


Roxanne: I'm sorry for yelling and freaking out when I'm stressed - everyone


Alison: I pledge to ignore the comments of others and to just be myself. - Monticello


Alison: I'm not popular. I'm a skinny short kid who is smart and wears lots of dark colors. I know I'm not Goth or emo but it hurts when someone talks about you and says that you are. It really hurt my feelings. I'm not okay with it but what could I do. But I am not Goth or Emo I am me. -


Hannah: I'm just being me, but not everyone likes that. I don't know what I'm doing differently, but some girls on Youtube are really nice to the prettier and more successful people and really rude to me. I've gotten so hurt that I wanted to fire back at them, and I've even wasted time crying over the mean things that they said, but I remind myself that I am God's child and that I can be one fewer mean girl in the world. After all, other girls are looking up to me. I can't let them down by behaving poorly. -


brittany: i pledge to be kind to my friends and others - new york


Lea: I go to the school that Molly and Lauren visited today. This is my truth: At the beginning of this year there was a girl I thought I was friends with. Earlier today she turned on me. She called me a di** and a bi*** and it hurts. So if you read this you who said it to me dont in the future. Remember the golden rule. -


Daphne: Back in Junior High, the girls always call me names like Rikishi (the biggest wrestler in WWE) just because I was bigger and heavier than all the average Junior school girls and the other school mates would just laugh at me. I used to cry alone at my desk and always hopping that one of them would at least understand how hurtful it is to be called names. Until now, I remember clearly every moment they called me names and it gave me bad memories of my Junior high. I never liked my childhood/school days. I often try to forget and forgive but it is so hard. -


Mikayla: Last year (and this year, but more so last year) a girl in my class bullied me and bullied me, but I was never stong enough to speak up. so she would taunt me and tel me things would come out of my cuboard, scared me to to death and scarred my life. I would sit in a corner at school and cry all lunch. I have never explained everything to anyonebecause I was too scared. so now I am brave enough, this is basically what happened. She was my bestie, my BFF, my best bud for life. and then, one day she came to school and said something mean to me. I simply thought she was having a bad day but no. she kept going on about me being the worst person in the world and she started taunting me about scary things. I had a boyfriend at the time and she was jealous so she tried to steal him (she didn't like him, she just wanted to upset me). She took him away and told him lies and bad things about me (I knew this because I was close by when she did this) He eventually rejected me due to all these lies, and became BF and GF with her. Yet, behind his back, she didn't like him at all. She was bossy, mean and a plain bully. i spoke to my teacher about this (I didn't spill EVERYTHING but I told her enough so she would understand) and guess what? she fixed it!.......... sort of. This year I am in a different class to her, but she still bullies me on the bus. Now listen up Olivia. You ruined my life by taunting me and stealing my guy and much more. You bullied me and cheated off me and lied. You were not nice and you still aren't. This is my life story, a sad story that may or may not work out in the end, but if you read this Olivia, remember everything you did, and think, "was that the right thing to do?" -


Isabella: I'm sorry I judged you before I met you - Annabelle


Meg: I'm sorry, Grace. I know we're, like, best friends now. But I'm sorry I talked about you in sixth grade. I was jealous because you're beautiful and sweet and popular. I know that sounds cliche but it's true. And even though we're close now, I'm still sorry that I called you a bitch, because it wasn't true. And it didn't make me look good, despite what I'd thought. - Grace


Meg: I'm one of those girls who always reaches out to my friends. I'm the one to email them, the one to tell them they're beautiful, the one to check up on them and remember birthdays. I'm the one who invites them over or comforts them when they're down. I'm the one who makes an effort towards my friends. I have so many close friends, and one best friend, and they're all amazing. But someday, I'd like one person to ask ME if I'd like to hang out with them that weekend, instead of the other way around. -

I thought i could trust my friend, but that was a lie. I told my friend a screct which was who i liked. My friend told everyone in the school. Everyone started to make fun. Like i wasnt pretty for him, or he would never like me. after I've been wanting to leave and killmyself. But i know that wouldnt ever help. -

Linda: Back in my old school, girls hated each other. They fought over boys.I worried if they were going to spread rumors about me. The fights got bad.The teachers soon found out.My friend was pushed to the floor because she used to date a boy and most girls got mad at her because those girls liked him. I tried to stop it, until I thoght that they would get mad at me. so i stayed away, thinking if they would hit ,kick,orpunch each other.But now im in a different school and they are still fighting! -


Cindy: Being unkind to one another is not a new thing. 20 years a girl my own age thought because she was twice my size she could punch me in the face. The worst part is everyone who saw it did nothing to help me. -


Sammy: I always try to be good person and be there for others and most times this means i dont take care of myself, it feels like no one listens to me or cares to hear what i have to say. sometimes i say mean things but i truly dont mean them, i say mean things because im hurt and feel stranded. I wish i was perfict that i didnt feel hurt or lost so i can always suport and protect my friends but sadly i am human and have feelings. But with you girls at my side i will and can be the best me i can be.

He laughed in my face, i ran out of class and into the girls bathroom and cried a few moments later i heard my "friend" and another girl walk in they where laughing so loudly and i heard my "friend" say "wow how stupid did she look? i can not believe she fell for that." i was crushed i walked out and looked at her her friend looked at me wide eyed, my "friend" looked at me like i was going to kill her honestly i wanted to. but i just told her how mean she was and i walk out. -

Abbey: I guess lots of girls get bullied in school, but I don't think anyone would have been bullied quite like me. It all started on my first day back at school, when Channelle had told rumors about me again. I was prepared for that though, she always did it. Then even my bestie started believing her! Lianna just randomly turned around and asked me "Did you really do that?" and I replyed "How could you believe that? You know me more than anyone!". She just moved away from my seat. Then when nearly everyone believed Channelle, she sent her friend, Maddison, to pretend they had a fight and I had been there for more than Channelle. I believed her because that's what I was like, naive. I ended up becoming Maddy's best friend. But the next day she put white-out in my hair. And told everyone I had a bad case of dandruff. A few weeks later she told everyone I called her a lesbian, and that she was from hell. I wouldn't do that, I refused to stoop to her level. But when the teacher heard that I may have done that, she told my mum. When my mum heard, she didn't let me go to school for the rest of the week. I never felt more ashamed. When the concert time came, I was over-excited. I had practiced my song over and over again. But when the big night came i had never expected to be sabotaged by Channelle again. When I was ready to sing, she whispered something to Maddy, and then Maddy tripped me over. Well, if I went back in time, I'd know not to introduce myself to Channelle. That's my story. -

Rachel: my bestfriend is a backstabber. i used to be too, but that was a long time ago and my motto has been for awhile "if you wouldn't say it in their presence don't say it at all." i thought my bestfriend had changed too, but i was wrong. she's constantly telling my secrets and telling people that no one likes me and whenever someone insults me, instead of standing up for me, she agrees. if she hates me that much, why does she pretend that she loves me so much? she doesn't understand how badly it hurts to know your bestfriend since 5th grade (we are in high school now) does that to you. and then she has the nerve to tell everyone that IM a bad friend, when really i keep her secrets and i dont say bad things about her. sure every once and awhile i will spill a secret or say something bad about someone so im not saying she's the only guilty one here. but i just wish she knew how it felt. -


Lauren: I'm sorry for every girl and boy I hurt. I only do that because I'm bullied a lot. -


EG: I am truly sorry for anything that I may have done to hurt others when I was younger. I am sorry that I was not strong enough to say no and I am sorry that I let others hurt me as well.

Ailish: Sorry for the times I haven't been the nicest friend to you when I know you are just trying your best to fit it. But you don't need to thats what gets to me, you are perfect how you are:) - Renae


Ailish: We had a little group of friends and we had like a code of honour in some way. One of the rules was everyone has to agree. Three of us wanted to have a new member but the other girl didn't want to. She started to become really mean and we didn't know what to do. We decided to scrap the group and she asked why. We almost lost the friend we wanted in the group because of the other girl. But we sorted it out and we have forgiven her. She NEVER talks to us anymore and we don't know why. -

J from Colorado: Dear Becky, I'm sorry for teasing you. I thought it would make me cooler by belittling you. 20 years later and it still haunts me that I did that to you. I can't imagine how it must haunt you. Again, I'm sorry. -


Alexa: I pledge to never become a mean girl as a woman, I pledge to never let my daughters become mean girls, and I pledge to protect them from mean girls, being exposed to that is the worst thing that ever happened to me, if I were to willingly throw my daughters to the wolves I'd be sending them on a road to suicide that I was on too, and more importantly I pledge to never let my daughters become mean girls and send someone ELSE on a road to suicide, I will never let them see either side of that coin, I will teach them what I was taught, I will show them what can happen if they say even one mean thing to someone else, and I will raise them to be better than the people who put me down, that is my pledge - Woodstock


Your Name: I'm proud to say I was never a mean girl, I had been put down so much by them that I couldn't stand up for myself much less bite back, but that anger and frustration did build up, and I did take it out on someone undeserving, I apologise to my mom who put up with me during that time, I yelled at her alot and said alot of things I didn't mean because I was trying to be "cool" or because I was so frustrated with never being able to scream a defense at the girls that beat me down that everytime anything upset me I absolutely tore my mom's head off, and I am so sorry for that, if I could, I'd go back and time and yell into a pillow, my mom is my best freind, and at some times my only freind, and I love her - Darla


Alexa: I've been bullied since I first got in school, on TV I always say stories about how boys bully and never saw anything about girls being the bad guys, almost only the victums, so it confused me when girls were bullying ME, as I got older and my interests matured I noticed that girl bullying was becoming more common in the media, but I still felt like I was doing something wrong, I never heard stories about bullying from my favirote stories, American Girl, Magic Treehouse, Disney Princesses, none of them ever said that they were bullied, there were evil stepmothers and mean older sisters but.. that's it... I thought for a long time that it was my fault, that for some reason I just wasn't.. NORMAL... at night I used to try to come up with causes for not being "normal", that I was actually from a race of vampires or something, but the older I got the less I could comfort myself with that kind of fantasy, it was so bad that from fifth through seventh grade I contemplated suicide, guidance counslers didn't even talk to me and teachers were half of the problum, every day I went home crying because of the girls and what they did to me, it wasn't all calling names either, I had my things stolen, broken, stepped on,I'm lucky enough to say no one ever punched me or anything but I was terrified that they eventually would, mean girls never went down in numbers, I remember when I was little I was only bullied by one or two girls, but it seemed like each year in school that number doubled or trippled, by the time I was in seventh grade I had so many enemies that I felt very alone, even my former "freinds" had gone to the dark side and left me all alone, my one true freind was at another school, so I felt like I had no one, the worst part though wasn't the name calling, it was making me try to be who I wasn't so I would blend in, I tried to do things I didn't like and I tried to like them too, girls at my school were into cooking and sewing, so I bought cookbooks and tons of fabric but I wasn't interested enough in either to be good, I tried photography and was even in band even though that was miserable, anything that I overheard the mean girls talking about I tried to pretend I liked but still it didn't seem to help, eventually I accepted that no one would like me and was atleast me, the bullying got so bad that I had to be pulled out of school, homeschooling though is the best thing that's ever happened to me, since I left the mean girls scene I've become a writer, I have an online fanbase in the thousands, I'm even preparing my first book for publication, the thing I've always been teased about most is the fact that I'm a nerd, I read books during recess and was always talking about "strange" things, mermaids, vampires, faeries, and Japanese anime is the absolute best, but now I'm proud of my nerdiness, I go to anime conventions twice a year and make tons of freinds, there are no mean girls at anime conventions, atleast none that I've ever met, I'm proud of being a nerd, I'm proud of studying werewolves instead of studying reality TV stars, I'm proud that my best freind is my mom, and I'm finally proud of who I am, my mom and I joke that the people I meet now are so nice, that everyone should watch anime so they wouldn't be so mean, but the important thing is that I went from the brink of suicide, crying my eyes out everyday, to never crying anymore and having so much to live for, all by escaping mean girls and finding my own purpous, my own path, just imagine, if there were no mean girls to begin with, what could people REALLY accomplish? -


Calypso: I was allways bullied and pushed aruond at my after program by a girl named Kassy I allways told her that she was so unkind and unfair and that she was the most rude person in the world im in fith grade now im home scholled im ten and lonly please help me see the light I wish could be like you guys -

Mary: I pledge to not be judgmental over people wither other think your "fat, stupid, anorexic, ugly, a nerd, etc" since I have been called some of those. If I were to agree with any of them for some reason I'd keep it to myself. :) - Facotryville


Mary: Yeah I'm sorry I dreamed of your being eaten by tigers. At least I didn't say "Last night I had a dream about nice, cute tigers. Oh yeah in it they ate you!" to your face unlike the things you said to my face. I can't wait until I attend your High School Graduation and you find out who that girl is. That girl being me and you hopefully apologize to me too. I am truly sorry since I got over you two. The only thing I could ask if to hear "I am sorry" from your lips. Anyway thanks to you, I am nowhere near as judgmental over people nowadays. Sorry, I promise the tiger won't eat you ever again, like they haven't for 2 years. - Sarah and Rachael


Mary: My experiences with female bullying made me skip school some days and have a one on one with the principal to try to remove them from my school life. Even though the next year I had peace at school with some more girls, most of my friends were guys since they're less judgmental. I moved away the year after that. This new place had more people respect me last year until the end. I dropped out of some stupid show and everyone after that just looked at me in a funny way. Some people got over that this year thankfully. However I now am being attacked here in minor ways. Just simple ostracizing which I've had since 1st grade so I am used to it. People say I'm nice, but if I am why am I not treated nicely? I hear there's a bunch of mean people here, I avoid the ones said to be mean since I want nothing to do with it, and had to find out some more of them on my own. Two of the ones I found don't want me to be with the people I like. I only really have one or two people I actually can trust this year. High School can suck I guess, but it shouldn't have to be over a bunch of jerks who want to make you feel bad. I personally want more understanding in this world. If people knew everyone's backgrounds they'd be treated differently. I am all for the the Kind Campaign, Lady Gaga wanting the president to make an anti-bullying law, and everyone like it. :) It needs to stop, and stop soon! I and I think everyone should be able to accept they're all weird and different in their own ways, good ways. -


Earlier me: Dearest self, I am sorry that I listened to what the other girls had to say. I am sorry that I tried cutting your wrists, tried to develop an eating disorder, and tried to take your life.

I am sorry you still have trouble forgiving those "friends" in sixth grade who stole your shoes because the weren't a name-brand and then played keep-a-way with them, leaving you shoeless during recess. I am sorry that judging others feels like an automatic response. I am sorry you have struggled with eating disorders for 10+ years because your self esteem is lacking too much to feel you are worth healing. I am sorry you have spent so many hours alone, feeling sad, and yearning for closer relationships with others, but not knowing how to form friendships because during your formative years "girls were just being girls" and "kids are cruel". I am sorry suicide has been considered as a coping option too many times to count. I am sorry for not being tougher and finding inspiration sooner.

Yet, every girl gets at least a little affected by it. So, I’ve realized that as much as I’ve been hurt, so have many other girls. I’m sorry for all the pain ive caused to every girl that I disliked. I’m sorry for saying I wish she could die, or hating her for no reason. I’m sorry for misjudging any girl because everyone is kind if you look deep enough. The world needs to be a better place and I should help by not making fun of any girl. It sucks to be made fun of, and no person should be put through the pain. Girls say mean stuff, but no person should bring you down. I’m just sorry. I should of listened to the other side of the stories instead of being stubborn and decided flat out that I hated the person. Hate is a very strong word, so I’m sorry for anyone ive ever used the word hate towards. - Dear every girl I’ve ever hurt,

Kindly, Femenhace: Hi Guys, tell me please, I am now in Mexico, and my parents are in Zvenigorod how to make so we could talk not on Skype - they don't like pc much? I found just such a story, maybe someone has used a similar service, or heard of him? Tell me please is it real? Once in a while the issue of the extension of market share is getting almost crucial for your companionship. Pretty often it happens that enterprise provides prefect service, it has well organized customer support, but, unfortunately, almost all neighbor cities already have bought your wares and sales falls down terribly. Now and then such condition becomes a reason of the insolvency of really good enterprises. What to do in order to escape from this kind of situation with interest? There is a possibility to expand marketing department which can lightly augment recurrent sales. It is also possible to invest into the promotional material. And this is really important part of the costs and income. Beside this there is an option to purchase a brunch in adjoining cities or even countries and start to grow instead of crashing. Unfortunately it is also not that simple as we wish it to be. Office space in the surrounding city is costly. Beside this there are additional expenses for the recruitment and educating of the new staff. There is simple solution for such problem that is described below. Read the story and get the idea of it. There was a little rope yard in the poky hole of a place, that manufactured doors. At the start everything was just amazing: skilled assistants were recruited, that did not cry for big salary, and the quality of the wares was really good. The manufacture had a lot of contracts, number of which even exceeded productive capacity of the company. Possessors of the company had decided that it would be like this for a long time, so they made a loan in order to obtain extra space. It has became even better, but all at once in about half of year, the income fall down. For some reason decreased - and that was it. How could it happen? Why could it happened? Where were the orders? But what did the company do? Early on they had two sale persons that answered the phone and transferred the orders to the factory. Afterward in conditions of the crisis company has recruited business agents as they thought that the orders were much more important then the rest. The agents started to visit house holders and companies and to offer the production of the company. The company even has payed for the promotional material, but all together increased sales just for 20 percent which were not enough even to return loan. Because there was no market anymore - the whole city has purchased their goods and the firm had no one left to buy their goods. Somehow company has been stretching out for a half of year more. They replaced everything they could with their production. They had full monopoly, but not the sales. In the situation of shutdown, people started to retire. Holders decided to vend the company, as it was better to sell out it now and to return at least part of the money. They published advertisement in newspapers and magazines about vending and even invited few buyers to take a look at the factory. But as there was not sale area for their production they did not succeed. They attempted to publish advertisement in nearby cities, but local citizens did not want to buy goods from outsiders. Only in the central city of the region there was good level of sales, but to buy office space there was not possible because of the shortage of the money. Another problem was that the potential clients did not want to dial inter-city numbers and to pay for roaming as well as to go to another city to buy anything. Time waxed on and formerly the most successful enterprise in the region was crashing. And then the nephew came to visit the owner of the factory. He came to have fun and to take some relaxation. As all guys of his age, he seriously loved to wave Internet, and the first thing he asked about was the potentiality to to log in social network. It turned out that the hosts almost did not use the Internet, so the poor guy had to search in Internet from his phone. As the nephew already has visited the manufacture around a year ago and liked it a lot - he asked for the potentiality to take a look at the production once again. But suddenly he received hard breakdown. The nephew was insolent and cheerful, so he decided to find out what had happened. And went to the factory by himself. That evening there was a watchman who remembered that the youngster was allowed to go into the factory without special permission of the proprietors. Therefore he sneaked in the enterprise without any problem. The nephew came back home in shock and straight started to ask questions: "Why could it happened?" e.t.c. At the end he was told the truth. The guy got sad and asked for the opportunity to talk with the sales department.. Owner decided not to object and gave to his relative such chance: - Do whatever you want, and if you need some help - let me know. The guy pondered for a while and suggested to obtain brunch in the capital as it is best place for sales with serious sales area. And after he was explained that there is some shortage of money, he had to implement creatively different way of thinking. As usual in such situations he started to wave Google to find the solution. And really Google was some help. In a few minutes of the searching the http://telnum.net/ to the site that sells direct phone numbers was found. It was a savior! It turned out, that it is real not to rent brunch in the capital but to obtain the number of the city needed. And just to imitate your physical presence there. Local purchasers will dial local number and like the result to be connected with the office that is located thousands and thousands miles away. Such a number costs nothing in comparison with the price for office rent or purchase, but it is as helpful as office. All incoming calls diverts to the number needed, and therefore there is no need to recruit additional employees and to spend money for the office rent. The company decided to try this innovation. The free test of the number was ordered. The connection turned out to be really good - clear and distinct, with no creaks and lags. The virtual number was purchased for one month. And unexpectedly they got impressive result. There were so many orders that they had to invite back all the employees and to add second line of production. Just in one year holders repaid all their loans and even opened additional business. And the keys to the success were direct numbers and virtual office thanks to the site http://telnum.net/ . Do you think this story is real? Has anyone used such services? Tell me please, maybe there are other methods besides this? - Dear Anonymous,

Anonymous: In eighth grade everyone was worried about what high school would be like. I was worried that once we got to high school i'd be replaced or disregarded. My friend M* and I were getting very close and I was concerned that her other best friend L* that I was not very close with would try and destroy that. In middle school I constantly felt isolated even though I had people all around me. M*, L*, and I were all in the same math class when L* noticed I had some type of scar on my arm. After lunch people started coming up to me asking me why I cut myself, etc. I thought to myself "What the hell are they talking about?" I then found out that L* saw a burn that I had on my arm and decided to start a rumor that I cut myself just to make me look like a Looney. - City

Nicole : A specific group of girls has been mean to me for the last two years at school. We used to play tennis together on our high school team. I quit the team last week after I found out one of the girls told our whole team that I do drugs and sleep around...the truth? I've smoked one cigarette in my life and I’m a virgin. Everyone on the team listens to her though so they all believe the things she says about me. I am tired of the looks I get every day and the way they make me feel so I told my mom I hate tennis now so that she won’t ask questions as to why I quit the team. I love tennis and I wish I was still playing. I don’t even know why they don't like me. I just hope it gets better one day. - City


Casey : I am scared to go to school. I tell my mom I’m sick a lot so that I won't have to go. I just hate trying to look a certain way to try and fit in. When I don’t try, these girls make fun of me like "oo casey looks like a boy! and her name is a boy’s name too" and when I do put on make-up and look cute they still make fun of me and say "oo casey decided to play dress up today!" I can't win. - City

It’s like I can't help it or something. - City

Ill forgives you all for not understanding because you don't know any better. You just see this black dot at your school who likes to act really tough. Well, I’m not so tough and I’m told that on a daily basis. - City

Barbie : I was a child who was raised with teasing and a lot of laughter. I then learn from my father who was a pro. Here is one example: He use to ask me, when we were at the beach,"Which bathroom stall is your mother seated?" I would point it out to him a bit confused why he entered the woman's bathroom. Then I just watched him in action as he showed me a frog and then tossed it under the stall at his wife. She then screamed and yelled, "Oh Bill?" Then my dad ran out of the women's bathroom laughing. Well, I then thought it was funny and followed in his footsteps. I had a nice friend down the street who I invited over and we went down to the canal. I had my plan of finding a frog and having my fun. We went floating down the canal in our swimsuits and I was looking for a frog. She had no idea of what I thought was funny. So anyways, I found the frog and I stuck it down the front of her swimsuit. It was jumping uncontrollably that she could not get it out. I was rolling on the ground laughing. Then she started crying and that is when I tried to help her get it out. My stomach hurt so bad from laughing. She was mad at me, but I did not really think it was all that bad. I just thought it was funny. My mom then pointed out to me, "How would you feel ,Barbie, if someone did that to you?" I said," I would not like it." She then said, "I know you think it is harmless, but you are really being cruel." So to this day, I am still very sorry for what I did and that I was only doing it for a laugh, but in turn I hurt my friend and she think I was much of a friend. - City

Id rather not say... : I heard about this campaign from a friend of mine and I decided to check it out. I have to say, after reading all of these stories within this website and thinking about this issue, I have realized that I am the girl causing the drama within my group of friends. I always talk behind my friends backs and gossip about "what she's wearing" or "who she hooked up with last weekend" I know that a lot of the fights that go on with my girl group are because of the things I say and do. I’m sure I have made some people feel pretty bad about themselves too. I have said some things to some of my friends that I wish I could take back. It’s true- insecurities can get the best of us girls. I don’t know why we are like this but I am going to try my best to change. I don’t want to be like this. I am a good person. I guess for any girl reading this that likes to start the drama and rumors in her school- I want you know that I have been there...I am there. But It’s not worth it. Lets stop this cycle together. - City


Brooke : Every day when I go to school it's a reminder to myself that I don't fit in. I feel like no one likes me. I sit by myself sometimes at lunch because there's know one that I feel can be a friend to me. People don't take me seriously because they think I’m "to nice". I can't stand up for myself to mean girls or boys and I have a very hard time saying no to people when they ask me for things. I feel so alone. I just want to be liked. - City


Natalie : Sometimes I feel like I don’t want to wake up in the morning because my girls friends are always ganging up on me. It doesn’t seem like a huge deal--girls being like this to each other-- but it matters. It matters a lot and I feel the effects of girl-against-girl "crime" every day. - City


Shandy : I told my friend that she was a slut and that she would never amount to anything and that everyone hates her and talks about her behind her back. I told her this because she hooked up with a guy that I like. I still feel like I had a right to be upset with her because she was my friend and she knew that I liked him. But I will never forget how gross I felt after I said that to her. In my mind it all made sense and I felt justified for saying it but as those words came out of my mouth I immediately realized the weight of the words I was using against her. I have always felt bad about saying that to her but I still feel frustrated that she did that with the boy I like. I don’t know who is right and who is wrong but I don’t think that matters. At the end of the day, we both hurt each others feelings and that is the problem right there--that as girls, we were so quick to turn on each other...it was so easy for us to do. I don’t understand why we are like that. - City

Roxy : I had a best friend in 6th grade. We did everything together and we were so different yet so alike. I had another friend from the boys and girls club I went to, named Anna. Anna didn't like Savanna (my 6th grade beastie) so she started talking trash about her in front of me. I didn't want to stand up for Savanna since I was scared of rejection and the possibility of Anna saying things about me too. So I agreed and added on to the things she said about Savanna. Soon I was convinced that Savanna was all of those things that we have said behind her back. So one day me and my other friends decided to ditch her, I still felt unsure about that decision though, and she caught up and asked why we were leaving her. So we returned to where we had left her, the playground, and we sat her down on the swings and said nasty things to her face. I didn't say much since I still cared about her. Instead I ended up taking her wallet, which I was supposed to hold for her, from my backpack and came up with the genius plan to hide it(sarcasm). We buried it in the sand near the slide but a random girl that we didn't like for some reason saw us and told the crying Savanna what we had done. Savanna was still sitting on the swings crying when the girl came back with her sandy wallet. I know what happened after we buried it because once we left I told my other friends that I needed to go to the restroom but instead I darted for the playground. I was going to secretly give her back wallet back, but I was still contemplating, scared that the other girls might see me and turn on me as well. That’s when I saw what the random girl we didn't like had done....I wish I was the random girl no one liked, because I know that I'd be doing the right thing. It was really immature of us to do and say such things but because of that she ceased coming to the boys and girls club. We were such good friends that she first came to the girls and boys club, although she didn't need it at all, just so she could spend more time with me. I truly regret those things that I had done. I used to see her in high school, until I switched do different schools, and I always avoided her out of guilt. I wished that I had asked for her forgiveness because I know that if I hadn't done what I had done, then we would still be best friends. But I’m kind a happy for her that she's not my friend anymore because if I had done such a thing then I wouldn't deserve a friend like her and I wouldn't want her to be with a bad friend like me. The even sadder thing is that if it came down to it, I would probably end up doing something like that again, that's why I’m making an effort to change that. I will no longer act as a double agent friend, talking behind everyone's back just to please everyone. And hopefully I will be successful in achieving that. Hopefully I will truly be worthy of the good friends I have now. - City


Alhia: I had a rumor spread about me that said I was a lesbian and I’m not the only reason it was spread because we were playing spin the bottle and even though it landed on a girl I still had to kiss her (worst experience ever for me) so all of us in the group promised we would not tell anyone well guess what happened one of the girls spread that horrible rumor about me......*sigh* - City

Rather not say.. : In 4th grade, I was chubby. And people would constantly remind me of that- I developed an eating disorder. in 2nd-4th grade I had no friends and was constantly picked on- I developed depression, that I still suffer from and I am going to be a freshman in high school. The bullying finally stopped in 6th grade and I was fine. but then in 7th grade, I was stupid and tried to smoking because "everyone was doing it". The people I did it with, nothing ever happened to them. But me, was made fun of and lost all my friends. to this day I’m still made fun of for this. & now, this year, 8th grade, all the upperclassmen in high school hate me. High school use to be what I looked forward to in life and now I don’t want to go. People say I’m a whore, that I’m a waste of life, and that I’m ugly. I try to not think about it but I always do. They tell me there are so many things wrong with me. I have to go to therapy for cutting because of them. I told my "best friend" that I cut myself, and she told my whole school. Now I get called crazy. I don’t know when all this will stop, but I’m hoping soon. I don’t want to go to school; I don’t want to even leave my room sometimes because of these things. & they only do it to me, so does that mean the things they say are partially true? - City


Patty Petelin: Hello. I am twenty-eight years old and while I no longer experience much of what is being written here, it is not foreign to me either. I am a teacher and I work with young women every day, and sometimes I still feel like I am fifteen again. I have not yet seen the film, but if I could just share something with the wonderful young women who created it and those who are writing their stories here: Girls are not born in conflict with each other, as men are not natural born comrades. When each one of you reflects on your experiences with other girls in your lives, I would ask you to consider these experiences and how they might relate to power. Consider that women are in conflict/competition with each other because they are taught that personal power must be bestowed upon them, that it is something outside of them. When you live in a world where ANY man -- handsome, ugly, old, young, smart, idiotic, etc... -- has the power to judge a woman's worth, it is not hard to see why girls compete for power: because they still believe it is something someone else gives to them. Fortunately, I came to understand this truth as I grew older and I can say that the best relationships in my life right now are my friendships with other women. This is because women, when they are not competing for some make-believe source of power, are the most amazing creatures on this planet. Yes, be kind to each other. This is simple. But most importantly, know that the ONLY TRUE SOURCE of confidence, respect, power and worth comes from within. This is scary because it means that we are responsible for how we feel about ourselves. But it is also freeing. It will free you as it has freed me. - City


Kate : I have been a victim of girls starting rumors and saying hurtful things. More than once, little personal things about myself (which, I might add, was irresponsible of me to tell) were spread around the school. I’ve been called fat by certain girls more than once, and am sometimes told that I "take up the whole hallway." This is obviously just a silly hyperbole, but that really hurt me when I found out about it. Another form of girl-against-girl abuse which I have witnessed was just this year. In the middle months of school, I began to really like this guy. I told my friends about it, in the excitement of the realization. They, in turn, told me in one night that they liked him as well. That was not the worst of it. A week or so later, one of the friends asked the guy out. I was crushed and cried when I got home because my friend actually rubbed it in my face after the closing hours of school. I cannot believe I just said that, but it is present that girl-against-girl crime can be found in many ways. I think the Kind Campaign is a great way to get girls to realize that people are people, and we all have feelings as humans. Whether a person likes you or not, opinions should be kept to themselves. Thanks to this campaign, there is hope for girls everywhere! xoxoxoxo ~Kate - City

Anonymous : This girl started dating my best friend and at first I thought she was so nice and friendly. But after a while, I found out that she had been talking about me to my best friend and trying to turn him against me who really hurts because, we've been friends for so long and she just came into this equation. I can totally understand why she'd be uncomfortable [even though there is no reason for it], but I don’t think she went about it the right way. Pretending to be okay with this friendship and then turning against me behind my back when I tried so hard to make her feel welcomed into the group. She still gives me that uncomfortable feeling but i've refused to stoop to that level. I'd regret being a bitch, I'll never regret being kind. - City

Anonymous: I have very much been hated by all girls my entire life I never knew why, EVER in 1st grade I had one girl come up to me and say "No one likes you go home". ...that's exactly what I did I stayed home, for 2 weeks I locked myself in my bed room and wouldn't come out ...that was just 1st grade now that I am in high school I have been called so many names, had so many rumors spread about me I don't listen.As I walk down the halls, the girls whispering to one another I hear them say slut, whore , hoe but I do what I have to, just keep walking, paying no attention to their mean remarks. I just wait until lunch where I have my friends with me ...i guess you could say I have a lot of friends but there ONLY guys Ive never had a best friend that's a girl NEVER. I never knew what it felt like to have a sleep over or go shopping with my girlfriends. Some girls say It’s because I steal their boyfriend others because I am perfect, but good grades is not perfect. I can’t seem to get any girl to even talk to me with out them already thinking I am a bitch thats not perfect at all in my eyes.

Anonymous: All my life I never really got along with girls. It wasn’t that I ignored them and wanted nothing to do with them, but I did like to hang out with the guys because that was the only place I felt accepted. When I went to high school, playing pickup basketball was deemed as me trying to steal their boyfriends. In truth, I just loved the sport and the guys were the only ones that would play. Because of that I was shut out from the girls and therefore from their guys too. not only was I not wanted by the girls, but the guys weren’t allowed to hang out with me either. after that the girls tried to befriend me, because "friends don’t steal friends boyfriends." the fact that I didn’t really want to be their friend only made things worse and gossip started to spread. To this day I still don’t trust girls, and won’t let myself have one for a best friend. - City

lauren: As I’m writing this I’m going through a rough day with my supposed best friend who I've been friends with my whole life. I honestly can't even remember the last time we were actually "good" friends none the less "best" friends... It’s possible that we were 5 and under because once school started our friendship was never the same. I’m almost 18 now. And I know how pathetic on my part it may look that I’m still friends with someone who treats me as badly as she does... My 'friend' uses people, especially me because I've been around the longest and I guess she thinks I'll always be there. When we make plans she conveniently ends up bringing other people into what we had planned and I get left out. She realizes the faults in other girls that have gotten between her and a guy she liked but when it comes to guys I like she talks to them non-stop and even talks badly about me to them just so she can ruin my relationships. She's a constant bragger and meanwhile has everyone either making fun of her or them talking gossip about her...these same people she'll be "best friends" with a week after the gossiping stops because she's dying to be accepted by these people. Only two people have ever really hurt me and that was my first boyfriend and her. He's not in my life anymore and I just wish it was as easy to kick her out of my life like I did him. In the end, I guess it is easy but I’m too afraid. I’ve been doing this same game with her my whole life. I don't know anything else. And although I've cried because of how she's treated me today, I'll be fine with her tomorrow....and I hate it. More than anything I hate the fact that I can easily stand up for myself to anyone and everyone else but her. - City

You are not alone. I’ve been there and so have millions of other girls. I understand the hurt you are feeling and I hope you can try to see past the situation with your friend. There is so much to live for. I know when you are in these situations it feels like your whole world, but your whole world is waiting for you. The girls who were mean to me in middle school-- I don't even know where they are in the world right now... And one of them is a good friend of mine now... at 23, I can say that I have an amazing support system of girl friends and that is because I have been through what you are going through right now.

Bobbi : My school days were filled with pain and sadness. I hated them. I always felt fat and ugly and unimportant. And I had some girls who were incredibly mean to me. Now, in my 50s, I have reconnected with a friend from my teens. She told me that I was popular and everyone loved me - especially boys. What a shock that was! I can't help but wonder how it would have been if I hadn't spent so many years feeling bad about myself and listening to others' comments about me. The women in my life today bring me such comfort, joy, understanding. It took me a long time to learn the depth of connection women can have. I’m happily married, but could never live without my girlfriends. I want to tell the young girls out there that you can start developing these loving and trusting relationships now. Learn to love and respect yourself, and approach others with kindness. It comes natural when you feel good about yourself. And surround yourself with others like you. When you're a nice girl, it should come back to you. And if it doesn't, know that it's not about you; it's about the other girl. Mean girls are unhappy. They are insecure, jealous, and scared. Feel bad for them. But know that you don't deserve anything short of respect and kindness. Don't accept mean treatment, and don't do it to others. Be an example to others. Don't wait many more years before you learn to enjoy the friendship of girls. - City


Denise : In sixth grade, I was victimized by almost all the girls in my grade. They would all run away from me on the playground, in a big group. There were a handful of instigators but the rest followed along. It carried into 7th grade. It was a horrible time in my life and at 52 years old, I can still feel the pain of their betrayal and general meanness. Despite this, or because of it, I grew into a strong, independent woman with national acclaim. We will never know how much more I could have become if I had not been victimized. - City

I don't think she understands that she is not the only one I talk to. She doesn't understand that I have ways to talk to people she lies about. But I can, any many times I have proved her wrong and she admits she lies. She still wants to talk to me, but I have nothing to say to her if she cannot be honest with me. It is sad, that now I cannot take information from her without having to think, is she lying to me? - City

R: You came to the program I’m at the other day (PCC) and it made me open my eyes fully in a long time. When I was younger I was abused by a close family friend I called my 'sister' and that always made me wary of people and how it was socially accepted to act. I never really had friends through elementary school and had (and still have) no self confidence whatsoever, when I got to middle school it never really got better; I was teased and made fun of. Finally in 8th grade I felt like I had some friends, people who had my back and would stand up for me... once again I was wrong... my 'friends' backstabbed me and even had their boyfriends call me on the phone telling me I was worthless. ive cut and burned myself before and once I took every pill I could get my hands on in my house, I like life but I can never seem to fully rise above and want to countinue living... I hope I can overcome the drugs and darkness but I can never see myself with a future - City


Marley : Sometimes I think the worst hurt a girl can experience is silence. no name-calling, no physical violence, just being ignored. People looking through you, talking over you, pretending you don't exist. every time I say hello to a girl I’ve known since kindergarten and she can pretend I’m not there, that she can't see or hear me, breaks my heart into pieces. by not saying a word, these girls that ignore me make me feel stupid, fat, small, unimportant, unloved, and undeserving of respect. That, I think, is the worst thing. All I can say is, thank god I just graduated from high school. girls, please know that you are important, and beautiful, and YOU DESERVE RESPECT. I can't tell you to not let them affect you, because I know it's hard, so hard, no matter what people tell you. but know that you are more than this, that one day you will wake up and these people that torture you will be out of your mind and not of your concern ever again. carry the hope that it WILL be better someday, maybe not in the outside world, but within yourself. Have hope, and know that someone far away is sending you love :) - City


N: How could you do that? You knew how much he meant to me. I don't think we can be friends anymore, but I promise to be nice to you when I see you. Hate isn't cool, no matter what you might have taken from me. I’m heartbroken, but more so because of you than him. - City


Anonymous: I had a bunch of girl friends, but I don't know what exactly happened to us all. I kinda wonder what things would have been like had we not all split up. Or at least, I from them. I feel like it may have been meant to be, because things would have turned out really differently and things are beautiful in my life now. And so I’m happy in that respect. My friends and I were so close and then we drastically just split up overnight. It’s kinda sad. I don't know what we'd even do now if we were to ever talk or get together. I just don't know if we're even the same people anymore. It’s kinda sad when you think about how like best buds we were and now It’s been three years. I did send a letter to the one girl, apologizing. She wrote me back saying it was all cool and stuff. And that was that. And we just, I guess after so long, just don't feel the need to communicate or something. Honestly, it would be so werid. Just about as weird as talking to my older sister. But that's a different story. But maybe not. Who knows? I may have been mad with them for a while. Actually, more like, probably yes. It was so much drama. It was like a jerry springer episode. I definitely did some stuff to embarrass myself, that's for sure. I thought these other girls would be my friends. I thought it would be fine. Then it wasn't. And then I was bored and lonely and depressed and too undisciplined to drag myself to college classes, a lot of the reason was because I didn't know anybody and was super unbelievably insecure. I had less friends than I did in highschool in which I was definitely insecure. And that's embarrassing. And then you run into people you knew from highschool and It’s like dejavu. I'll never go to a reunion! lol. Joke. But anyway... so it was a little rough. It was weird not having friends. Not having these people around I relied on. It made me feel like the biggest loser in the world. I'd see these people, and you'd know they were thinking, what happened? Wondering what went down. What did I do to make them not want to talk to me anymore? And I'd wonder if anyone knew what happened. Had they told people, our other friends and stuff, what I did? How I went behind her back. How I totally was seeing the world's biggest jerk and not telling her. Like lying to her. I mean, he was the world's biggest lamo. I mean, huge lamo. Like, so embarassing I went over there and partied with them and stayed around and kept coming around. I wasn't cool with any of them and he was embarrassing. I didn't see it. I thought he was cool for a second. And then he became uncool fast. I should have never talked to him again and called them up and been like we need to talk right now and I’m so sorry. But I didn't see it. It’s so sad it all went down like that. I mean, we all talked about how we were going to be sticking together forever and all that. And burning myself out didn't do anything to help the college endeavor. or any endeavor for that matter. If I'd have just gotten any type of degree. Even if I wouldn't have been able to do anything with it, it would have been just one accomplishment. Instead, It’s only half accomplised and that's not exactly the best. It would have been paid off by now. Most likely not being used, I'd assume, but you never know. But it was like 13th grade and I had no one to talk to. When I was little I used to be able to make friends like it was nothing. I wish I could have just done that then. Even, do that now. But that's not exactly my main concern. I have one best friend and my husband is the love of my life. (I know my main concern, really, is God. But other than that, I don't know. We both just work and look forward to a house and kids someday. And of course health and happiness. Some prosperity wouldn't hurt either. Who am I kidding? Everyone wants to prosper. We'd love a beautiful home in a beautiful place with nice cars and a pool and a big bathroom and a big living room and master bedroom like you see on hgtv. And we'd have our careers that make us happy and feel fulfilled and we'd be skinny and in shape... But then we'd want more wouldn't we? It’s not about things and that's something you learn from God. But anyway...) But about my old friends... what would they think about that I got married? I’m sure they'd be happy for me. Things were just rough before. And that's the conclusion of this story. But I picked up a Bible and my life has changed and It’s unbelievably amazing. There's many out there who will say that the Bible's just a book and Jesus was just a man. But that's really not the case. I want to try not to get into how much help God is because that's not what this is supposed to be about, but if you're looking for a kindness movement It’s through Jesus Christ alone. I really just wonder from time to time about them. Like every so often a thought or two will pass through my mind of something we did or something like that. I don't know what it would be like if we ever talked. May be it would be fun or something. That is, if they don't think badly of me. I don't know, but I suspect I said some stuff that might have been accusing. May be just plain out not nice. I felt they were out to harm me. But considering they called and wanted to meet at a restaraunt and talk... It seems I was imagining things. But I really was convinced of that for a long time. What a doosy of a story. I’m pretty sure that everything's put behind us, It’s just a sad story. - City


K: Dear friends, I don't understand why the nicer and more understanding I am to you . . . . the more ungrateful and cold you become. Every few years I get a close group of girlfriends and every few years they cycle out. If you need me I’m there. When I need you there is no one around, no phone calls are answered, and no responses to texts. Why is it that women run to women when they are single and push us away when they have a man in their life? I give because I want too. But I would love to receive the same kindness when I need someone to be there. - City


Leyna : Who hasn’t been called a name before? Who hasn’t called somebody a name before? Possibly the problem isnt the other people It’s you too by showing kindness we can all change the world just on girl at a time. another key is not letting it get to you... your strong and independent and you know who you are and what you look like so why let other people judge you? You always have to remember that to someone.. You’re the most beautiful thing to ever lay eyes on :) - City


R: When I was in 7th grade, I was tormented on the school bus because I was chubby. It wasn't the kids who were teasing me that was so awful, but the kids who were my "friends" and didn't stand up for me that was the worst. I learned how to deal with it by ignoring the bullies and then trying to kill them with kindness in the following years of high school. Oddly enough it worked and I ended up being friendly with 2 of the 4 of them although we never talked about those days on the 7th grade bus. I also learned a valuable lesson on standing up for people who are being persecuted for one reason or another. 7th grade was 25 years ago, and I have been a community organizer fighting for social justice through most of my adult life. When I heard about The Kind Campaign, I actually cried. It’s about time that we start teaching girls that we need to take care of each other & build each other up - not tear each other down. To the girls who have posted their painful stories here: it DOES get better. Always remember, "This too shall pass". - City


Baby : I miss you… - City


M: In high school a girl who was supposed to be my bestfriend thought it would be funny to tell everyone she knew, my biggest secret. I suffered from depression at the time and cut myself a lot. She decided to tell everyone she knew that I made it for attention and to get sympathy because otherwise no one would like me. For 2 years that was all I was in high school. People who say horrible things to me in the halls and laugh when I was around. When I wore anything black people would make comments like "oh, are those your "cutting" clothes." All because of that one girl did. I would tell my mom I felt sick just to avoid going to school. I felt so betrayed and so inscure that I stopped eating. Today, even though I no longer starve myself or cut, my depression and eating problems still bring me pain. Though high school is behind me, the pain and self-hate I developed during those years stayed with me long after. However, some good did come from it all. My parents found out through me school guidance department about my depression and got me the help I needed. I learned who were my true friends and those bonds strengthened. To me, my experience showed that everything happens for a reason. - City


Chanel : Back in 7th grade, I was having my 13th birthday party and I invited a few of my close friends. There was one girl, let's call her D, that I didn't invite and she heard that I didn't invite her or a few of her friends that I hardly knew. For the next few days, we didn't really talk. One day, one of D's friends came into my class and gave me a note and walked right out. I opened it and it was a letter saying how much of a b!tch I was, and it had mean drawings of me. She said the birthday gift that I gave her was sh!t and that I could keep it; (I gave her expensive pink diamond earrings). I found out that it wasn't only her that drew/wrote those mean things, but most/all of the girls in her class at the time. Girls that I thought were my friends wrote that stuff. All because I didn't invite her to my birthday party. To this day, she still tries to be nice to me and talk to me, but I turn a cold shoulder. She truly doesn't understand how much she hurt me... - City


Mae: Back in 5th grade there was a kid named Matt I had known since preschool. he tormented me. he took every failure of mine and turned it into another sign that I was not worth the life I was wasting. he turned the whole grade around me. my closest friends hated me. I wanted to kill myself and the only thing stopping me was my mom and my nephew. I didn't want them to cry over me. I’m now a freshman with depression issues and social issue. - City


Anon/ : Im in 6th grade. a girl in my class is a bully, she doesn’t seem like it but she is. I like her when shes nice and she likes me, we used to be really close. I feel like I’m betraying all me friends when I hang out with her because she hurt each and every one of them. She gets mad and treats me awfully, I’m scared of her. We went on an excursion to the bakery today. I was kneading some dough and she step back and she got it on her shirt. She blamed me of course and went all silent.. I had to clean it of her shirt. I don’t know what to do. If I hang out with my real friends she might go crazy and start a rumor and scare me, but I want to be with my real friends. The ones that treat me well and never hurt me. - City


Kind Girl : There was a girl named Tatyana that worend my life and I always hated her now since you came to my school I have taken a pledge to always stick up for my friends and now I think about it I forgive her but I am thinking if I should forgive her or not I don’t know what to do so iam never going to forgive her ever again because she never said sorry or I was a Jerck so now I fell bad for her that she does this to people and I will always help people who have backstaped friends and I will try to comfort them for now on thanks Kind Campaign - City


Katherine : I carpooled with a girl from my class in kindergarten up and we went to school up until 8th grade (and are still in school together now). We were very close but she would always get so angry with me for the strangest, unreasonable excuses. Our other friends would not invite her to a sleepover or like the boy she likes and she wouldn't even care! As I grew in elementry school, I learned to just take what she did to me. I never got mad back at her- I just waited until she would calm down. But the anger got more frequent. She would talk behind my back with other friends infront of me and ignore me. I knew I shouldn’t be friends with her, but whenever she wasnt mad, she was so fun and nice! And we had such a background together. There have also been about 5 other girls in elementary school that didn't even know me but were constantly mean because I wouldn't fight back (I was too nice!). Towards freshman year, one of the other girls I was really close the time "removed" me from their group. I didn’t understand why they didn’t want to be my friend- I was always there for them. This year they started a rumor that I was a lesbian. It’s so hard for me to try and fight it instead of just taking; I wish everyone would just be kind. Things would be so much simpler. - City


Gwen : Middle school wasn't the best time of my life. In 8th grade, things went from bad to worse. Up until then, I was a 'girly girl'. I loved pink and babies and girly things. But in 8th grade, I didn't feel like myself. I felt that I didn't fit in and I didn't feel comfortable in my own skin. I felt comfortable when I wore combat boots and corsets rather than pin mini-skirts and stilettos. In other words, I became a goth. I fell in love with the gothic subculture. But not everyone else did. My (girl) friends would say things like "She looks like an emo wannabe" or "Nell, why do you wear all black? Did somebody die?" People would turn their backs on me and laugh; I felt unaccepted and unwanted. My friends drifted away and I felt like I had no one. I fell into depression and would cry for hours at a time, sometimes for a reason, and other times for no reason. Everyone thought that I was cutting myself, and I never did and never will. It’s been two years since (I was 13 I’m now 15). I’m still 'Goth' and I love it. I’ve found friends that accept me for who I am and wouldn't want me any other way. I wish those girls could have accepted me, goth or not... - City


Abigail : In 5th grade, I finally got the chance to dye my hair. I had always wanted to try it, just to see what it was like. I’ve also always thought people with black hair are beautiful, so naturally that was the color I chose to change my light brown to. I thought it looked great, and felt very pretty. I did that over a weekend, and only told 3 of my friends. When I got to school on Monday, everyone in the grade had already heard it. My friends had went behind my back to do that. Not only that, but there was multiple rumors going around about me. One of them that would always stick with me through the years was that I came home with my sister at 2 AM one night to find my mom drunk, and that she said yes to dying my hair because of it. That not only insulted me, but also my mother. They all said I was suicidal and emo. They all talked behind my back and gave me weird glances. No one even showed me a kind smile when I brought in a self-baked cake for the class party. That ruined the next 3 years of my school life, and put me under a lot of stress. I found out a girl I trusted with that secret had started all the rumors. Never again will I share any of my life with anyone. - City


Marilyn : Hi I’m from a small town with a small amount of people in it and this happens to be my senior year. I’ve realised something we girls in my school have never got along. There was one fight between two girls where one pulled out the others real hair, it was not pretty. Anyway I have been in a fight with girls myself but most of it was always my best friends. It sucks to fight with friends even more so when I’m stuck in the middle of two vary good friends fighting. It’s not right I know, but this happens every year. So far no fight and I’m hoping for no fighting this year. It would be nice to just live and be happy with fellow girls who know your struggles and hopefully my friends and I well make this year better then most. I love my friends and wouldn't trade them or any girl at my school for anybody really. For the reason of it being such a small school, but being a small school there is no room so we mostly pin against each other. It’s hard at times, but I have a good feeling about this year and I well try my best to keep my spirts up even if is hard to bear. - City


Mary Anne : Dear Emma (my daughter), How I see myself in you. You are starting jr. high and I know you are scared. Last year was a tough one for you, friends being mean and telling you you don't belong. I would see the pain in your eyes, how brave you tried to be, I know it hurt. I have felt that pain. Just know, I know you are a kind girl and one day...those girls who hurt you will understand they need to be kind too. I love you and will always understand. Love, Mom. - City


S: I’ve Been Through So Much Drama. I’m Not Tough Enough To Fight My Own Battles So It Has Always Been My Parents Fighting Them For Me. It’s Hard Being A Girl I Feel Sorry For The Girls Who Start The Rumours Because In The Long Run Theyre Just Like The Ones Who Have To Deal With The Burdons On Their Back. I’m Not Saying I’m Perfect And Have Never Been Mean To Other Girls But I Wish There Was Just One Simple Word...Sorry but It’s Not That Easy. To All The People That Have Said Mean Things About Me I Forgive You And For All The Mean Things I Say About People I Hope You Will Do The Same. God Bless To All And Drama, It Hurts So Please Don’t Do It Anymore And Be Strong And Give It Up For You and For Others. - City


Lauren : People think middle school was hard? Well, it was. I am now a Junior in High School and even being an "upperclassmen" I hear girls talking about other girls behind their backs. Even though it isn't face to face confrontation, words are still painful. And today with Face book, Twitter, Blackberry’s, there are SO many ways to spread "the word". I have pledged ever since I wa sin 7th grade to NEVER treat girls the way my "friends" treated me. - City


DLR: When I was the "new girl" in 4th grade, a popular girl beat me up after school. Years later in college, I transferred to another university and my sorority "sisters" rejected me because I was a "transfer" and not one of them. WOW!!! - City


Courtney: The first time I remember it was third grade. I was new and everyone had enough friends. They told me who I could talk to and what I could do. I couldn't play basketball... there were too many girls on the team and let’s face it I was not good enough... at least that is what they led me to believe. It didn't stop there. It continued all the way until eighth grade. Finally, high school came and I was convinced things would get better. Not a chance then it was the issue that I lived in the wrong neighborhood. Came from the wrong grade school. It didn't matter what I did to try and impress them... wait why did I have to impress them... but it didn't make a difference. They didn't care what clothes I wore, what sports I played ... I just didn't fit in with them. I was the girl who was nice to everyone... but didn't have any friends. It wasn't until college until I learned what it means to have a friend. I have always tried to be a friend, but I never understood what it really was to have a friend until I was almost 19 years old. Something that still brings me to tears. The scars from all those years are not visible, but rather I wear them on my heart. Even at 23 years old I am scared. Scared to trust. Scared to open up. Scared to by myself. If I am being really honest, I don't even know who I am. I am so used to trying to be someone else to impress other people I don't know what I actually like and what I have trained myself to like. - City


Rosie : Back in elementary I was bigger than most girls...I was taller, chubbier and I developed faster then everyone in my grade. I was picked on. Which got me into bullying others to make myself feel better. I called girls names and told kids what to do. Then in middle school I got in a huge fight with my 3 best friends. Long story short...I tried to kill myself and ended up in the hospital for a week. I came back to school and got so many questions asking how rehab was..My 3 best friends had told the entire school I went to rehab for doing Cocaine. And it ruined my reputation. Which led to later on in the summer going into 9th grade. I abused many drugs...to cope with my problems cause it seemed to help. Sad to say doing one of the drugs...made me relize I am who I am. And I love being me and I love helping others and making others happy. So now I’m in 10th grade. I’m sober, happy and helping others. Being kind and loving God is now what I live for. It makes me so happy to see that I’m making others happy. Ive gone through a long painful process. But now everything seems so right! Gosh I could keep talking for hours. =P - City


Kassidy : Well, even if you don't believe in him, God loves us all and no matter what you look like or what you wear, all girls and all people are beautiful in their own way. When I was in elementary, I was the tallest girl with the biggest breasts and I had acne, like I do now. A LOT of girls, about 10 to 15 all hated me, talked behind my back, called me ugly, and tried to make more people hate me, and it started to work. I hated life. I went to the counselor every day, talked to my Mama every day about it, and prayed every day and every night. It only got worse. I had not a friend in the world. I wanted to die then and there. When I got to middle school, the worst girls had moved away and the others ignored me. I made new friends-about 6-and life was good. Until 1 girl started to dislike the others, including me. Eventually she broke away from us. But we kept going. Another girl started to be REALLY mean to us, and she became best friends with the first girl to go and she broke away. Then the only girl in the group who didn't want anything to do with it just stuck with them. So now it's just my best friend and I. The other 3 girls don't speak to us and leave us alone, so that's kinda nice, but I have a boyfriend and most my friends tease him and call him names and ask why the heck I am with him, but they think it's funny even when I tell them it's not. It’s kinda harassment because they say it to his face, but I told them that they CANNOT to that. They have backed off. Now I’m just wondering what's gonna happen next but for now it's okay. I’m in the 7th grade and I have experienced the torture all girls can do, and like in the trailer, not all girls can be talented, beautiful or perfect, but we CAN be nice and kind to other girls. - City


Tiffany! : Well, there is a group of girls at my high school that are really mean! They ALWAYS have something mean to say about EVERYONE! I hate having to be near them. Today at school my one teacher put me next to one of the girls. She is the meanest one! I don’t know what to do. I felt like crying cuz of what her friends said about me when the teacher said I had to sit by her. They say that I would "fit in" With them if I weren’t a "Church girl" I go to an Apostolic Church, I wear skirts and don’t wear make-up or anything like that! But I don’t think I’m willing to give up my church for them!!! - City


SS : Everything kind of started in middle school. Somebody told me I had big ears. I just pushed it off, but now I notice it tons. I get made fun of because I’m short with big ears. And that’s how I see myself now. Even my friends say stuff about it, and they don’t help at all with it, they think they are but they aren’t. My friends, I don’t know if they really r my friends. Some of them are nice, but they tease me, when their trying to be funny, and they don’t take anything serious, I tried to tell them, but they just laughed. I always have something to laugh at, or I’m being laughed at. I’m in high school now, and already I have had a terrible year. In my 7th grade year, I kind of started to cut myself. And that summer I didn’t eat at all for like a week, and all my friends didn’t try to help, they got angry and then they all wanted to not eat as much. It’s so stupid. And now they still don’t understand that I have grown up and that they need to too. Help. - City


Sarah: This is just a poem that I wrote that I think would go great with the kind campaign.. I wrote it a while ago but once they came to our school I thought I would post it.. And it is slightly long too. What can I say that you won’t turn against me? I try and I try but I’m not how I should be. In your eyes I’m worthless, no use for me at all, you won’t help me up when I trip and I fall. You got me to thinking about my own place, and almost made me cry in every case. You made me think that what's said to me true, and not once to think that it's all thanks to you. I was hungry and thirsty, but I was ignored, I was made fun of and yelled at, until you were bored. Everybody around me was full and quenched, with me in the rain, nothing but drenched. I’m kicked when I’m down, with no chance to rise, I’m scarred and bruised and with tears in my eyes. but I cannot cry, if I do I feel weak, because those harsh words have completely broken me. You’d wish that I'd never been born or I'd die, or start rumors about me, and gossip and lie. When I enter a room I get points and stares, then the insults come in, my personality stripped bare. I hide in a corner, but have no success, and because of you my life is a mess. I wish I could just go back to the days, where I was not known, but it was ok. at least then I would be in less pain than now, but all I can do is look back and say, "how?" "How did my life end up like this?" so painful, worse than if I didn’t exist. And hopefully one day you all realize, that you caused the sorrow and pain in my eyes. but no, you're too ignorant, to blind to see, that everyone has feelings, including me. - City


Cassandra : I’m a parent of a beautiful 15 year old girl. I have moved my daughter through seven schools since 1st grade. My daughter has been body slammed and tossed down stairs and even cut with a box cutter; all by her peers. She doesn't fight back I found a scholl finally 25 miles away and we still have problems. I have started a sister hood a coming together of the lady's. I was so happy that the girls came to us today in Flint, Michigan Thank you soo much.

Little Amy : As a child, I was always called fat, even during my early high school years. I admit I wasn't ever thin, but I’d rather be fat and happy then what I am now. Now I am a 20 year old who can't eat normally, and has to run to the bathroom every time I do eat. I’m not healthy, and I want to get better, to have children.. a future. But if I can't get better, I at least don't want anyone else, any girl, to go through this. Please be kind... - City


C~: At the start of my senior year in high school, my best friend's mom told MY mom things that she believed to be true. Hurtful and degrading things about MY sexual activity. Sadly, the things she told my mom were true, but not about ME. They were truths about her own daughter, my best friend. Even sadder yet, my best friend didn't stand up for me and tell her mother the truth. Needless to say, our friendship came to an abrupt end. I couldn't stand being friends with someone who could be such a bold face liar. Well, several years later, her mother learned the truth when she caught her daughter in person while she was in college. We never received an apology, but that doesn't bother me so much anymore. What bothers me more is that MY mother will never know the truth about me. Time has run out, my mother is no longer with us, and will never hear from my former best friend or her mother what the truth really is. - City


Nicole: I have a beautiful and sensitive 4 1/2 year old Cassie. She started pre kindergarten this year with her best girl friend from preschool. She started coming home from school saying "my friend does not want to play with me anymore and she won't let me play with the other girls." I talked to the teacher and she noticed that Cassie had become withdrawn from the class. The teacher talked with all of the kids in the class about friendship and the next day at school Cassie's friend came up to her, grabbed her hand and they skipped happily away. It has been an emotional rollercoaster for me and my husband and Cassie is not even 5 years old. This teaching needs to start young because that is when the negative, agressive behavior starts. Kids need to learn at a young age that they have a voice and they need to be empowered. Thank you girls for being kind and spreading the word! - City


CB: To the girls looking for answers, peace and acceptance read what PATTY PETELIN wrote. Her words are so so true..."Yes, be kind to each other. This is simple. But most importantly, know that the ONLY TRUE SOURCE of confidence, respect, power and worth comes from within." The secret to happiness is not boys, it's not popularity, and it's certainly not clothes or jeans or sneakers. It’s participating in activities and things that will empower YOU to be powerful on your own! It's accomplishment and success (however we measure it for ourselves) that will make us smile! I have never bullied nor have I been a victim but I have an 11 year old daughter now who has told me many stories that have come off of the elementary school playground. I hold her accountable to treat people kindly, I also hold her to high standards of involvement with stuff other than boys and clothes and popularity. We as girls and women must stop competing with each other (we will all always be SO different) and start embracing the knowledge and understanding we can get from having girlfriends that are different from us. I wish you all the best and remind you that school is just a very small bit of your life and though there will be dark times, there will also be many more beautiful light times! xoxox - City


Alyssa: You both are so inspirational-- I am a senior in college now and noticed what you were doing last year, and have spread the word around my university on the east coast. We are all impressed by you. I think what’s most shocking to me is how externally beautiful you both are, and it is so rare/refreshing to find someone who matches that beauty internally as well! Keep up the inspiring work! - City


Desiree : In middle school I went through some really tough stuff. Friend after friend would betray me and spill my secrets. I even had one of them try to get me expelled from school. It got to the point where I tried to take my life three different times. Recently, I have noticed my cousin going through the same hardship, her best friend has started using degrading words, started telling her that she's a prude, when they're only 13, and my cousin is taking it really hard. I’m so grateful that there is something like this out there, to remind her that she's not alone, that the best thing to do is keep your confidence high and stay above the pettiness. Thank you, and keep spreading the word...this needs to stop. - City


Anonymous : My daughter is a smart, pretty sophomore. She is an outcast. She had a "falling-out" with her BFF of 8 year at the beginning of 9th grade and this BFF took all the friends with her. The BFF is more vivacious and outgoing and everyone just gravitates towards her. My daughter walks to class, eats lunch, waites for her ride home in the afternone ALONE. I can't do anything to help the situation, but I am there for her and just listen when she tells me how sad she is. I just want her to be happy. - City


Rachel: Grew up having lots of friends. in elementary school we all had fun and ran around. nothing mattered.. then it all went down in fifth grade. a new girl transferred to the school and became "popular" and it didn't bother me because all of my friends had stayed with me. But what really bothered me weas when I started to go through "the change" and the new girl asked me if I stuffed my bra. in fifth grade I was horrified. I didn't know how to respond. The answer was obvious. no I didn't stuff my bra. But the response from her was " well it looks like you do" I honestly didn't know what to say. I brushed it off and continued fifth grade. a year later I was 12 and in sixth grade. Hormones where ragging and everyone was going through that insecurity thing. having crushes and looking at the opposite sex. Boys were no longer gross. So I started having crushes on a few people and it was all pressure to "ask someone out" where you can go in sixth grade ? I dun no but people did. or maybe it was a title but I don’t ' know. For me, crushes didn't last very long. I liked one person for a week and then changed my mind. I mean I was 12 I didn't think the person I liked was gonna marry me. so I changed my mind about who I liked frequently. Which is were the problem occurred. The last boy I liked in sixth grade is the one who changed it all. as soon as the wrong person found out I was hearing words like slut, whore and bitch. I remember eating lunch one day and a classmate paraded around my lunch table chanting SLUT SLUT SLUT I was devastated. I mean a slut is someone who sleeps around with everyone and I didn't understand how liking someone made me that. the worst part was that the worst part was yet to come. the reputation of slut stayed with me through Jr. high. I didn't want to go to school because of all the name calling. I went with a few people but in Jr high it was all about status and I didn't understand. I had a lot of friends and one of them turned out to betray me. I found a note she had written to another friend of mine and it was describing me in a really mean and hurtful way. My lips were always chapped and slowly when I smiled it cracked leaving me a painful slit in my lip. (i still have a little scar) . in the note she referred to me as freaky lip, and it really hurt my feelings. So I went and asked her about it. she denied the whole thing but I knew she was lying because the notes were in her hand writing. I stopped talking to her and the next day I went to school as normal, went into the dressing room to change for gym when my friend came running in telling me to go into the bathroom. on the mirror in the bathroom in huge writing were the words " RACHEL LOPEZ IS A SLUT" I went to the principle and he had it cleaned. I was crushed. Then later in permanent marker was my name in reference to slut, bitch... You get the story. It finally stopped when I got to a high school that was too big to have "popular" kids and I found my nitch. I’m 22 years old but the time in my life when I was the most vulnerable and most influential I was the most harassed and destroyed and it still haunts me. I didn’t want to go to school or even be alive. - City

L: As a new student in a new elementary school girls would call me names and make sexual rumors up about me. Soon not just the girls were being so hateful. This really impacted my life- I hated coming to school so my grades suffered.. I became very depressed and tried to take my own life once 8th grade hit. My parents, who unfortunately received a lot of the aggression I had built up, had no idea of the real problems and I was to embarrassed to tell them. Thankfully, I went to a high school with new people and that helped me see the light more. However, I am currently 23 years old and since middle school I have experienced eating disorders and alcohol abuse because of my low self esteem. Also, it is extremely hard for me to form relationships with people- I am afraid of trust and just feel like I am better on my own. I hope that girls out there will carry out Kindness and if they are experiencing "bullying" don;t be too stubborn to talk about it with someone who cares (and people do care, even though it may not seem like it now) - City


S: To start I want to say thank you so much for choosing to raise awareness on this issue. It’s really going to impact a lot of people and I wish you both the bestt of luck. Personally I took this presentation to heart. Throughout middle and high school, I struggled to fit in. I tried everything possible and completely changed who I was as a person just to be even the slightest bit included. I lost who I was and am currently, as a junior in college, regaining myself. I never really found strong connections in those 6 years, because I was forced to act in a way that felt unnatural, but I did it because of the standards of my school. Through it all, I lost true friends because they knew who I was deep down, but I never stuck to it because I altered my true self to 'fit in.' I've been through more then enough insults in my life, threatening letters, hate groups specifically towards me because I never cared about who's toes I had to step on to get towards my goal of being "popular" The real deal breaker is this- because I was made fun of so much, I forced my parents to surgically change the number one thing I was most ashamed of and was made fun of most for it. Talk about changing yourself to make others happy. I’m personally much happier as a person and have so much more confidence, but my lack of such led me to horrible relationships where my body and dignity were both challenged and put into situations that no one should have to go through. I just know that you're documentary really touched me because I became slightly suicidal due to the effects all this had on me. But eventually I realized what I was doing wasn't helping the situation. I lost friends because of an unfortunate hazing event that happened to a family member of mine, and It’s followed me ever since - leading to even more harrassment and embarrassment. I eventually learned to deal with it all, but to this day it effects me in some way almost every day. In all, I just wanted to share my story and hopefully find someone who reads it and can relate to any of those situations ive been in. My message is this: Be the best you can be. And never let anyone make you feel inferior - no one can do so without your permission. If you allow them to do so, you're only hurting yourself. And most importantly: Be you, because everyone else is taken. Thanks so much for your influence. Good luck - City


J: I hate when people call it bullying. Socially, it has become diluted to mean "an insignifican’t part of life that everyone goes through at some point." It doesn't have to be like that. Sometimes we can recover, sometimes people can't recover. This is something that legitimately destroys a person. There should be no room for tolerance of it. - City


Nicole : I would just like to say that I’m proud of all those who have the courage to admit and bring up events from their past which have hurt them in some way, shape, or form. You are my role-models, all of you - City


Rather not say.. : This may sound pathetic to some people but I can't tell anyone else. I feel like I’m trapped in a relationship that I don't truly want anymore. I’ve been with him for almost three years now and everything seems fine, but I can’t hide the feelings that I have for one of my friends. My boyfriend is practically perfect but idk just something about my friend is making me more and more interested. I feel lost and don’t know what to do. I’ve never felt loved until I started dating my boyfriend, and I’m scared to lose what I have now only to never get it back. I feel like I should leave but I don't want to as that same time. It’s horrible. - City


Mackenzie : My parents had recently started the process of a divorce, I depended on my best friend. Jessica was all that I had and was the one friend I shared everything and anything with. Truly my best friend and the only best friend I had. Slowly she started being more reserved and then she stopped talking to me. I asked her what had happened and she said she just needed some space. I was then lost without a friend when I needed her the most. It may be better now but I’m worried that it will happen again because I still don't know why. - City


Bee: At first, I became friends with the popular crowd around 1st-2nd grade, not because they wanted to, but because I was learning English (I had just arrived from Mexico) and the teachers "forced" me and them to hang out together so I can learn to communicate. One day they all where picking fruits from a tree and were writing against the wall with them. I wanted to join in so I asked one of the girls to give me a fruit. We were all caught (there were about 7 of us, boys and girls) and they all blamed me for it. Since then, I was teased and ridiculed for anything. I would spend my recess times alone or hiding in the restroom. My mother claims that she taught me to defend myself, but she didnt. She would tell me what to say or do, but her actions were worse. She too would insult me and call me an "idiot", "your just like your father", "you are so stupid", etc...Not only was I put down at school, but at home too by my own mother (who now states that she "never" did such a thing...I must be crazy then...). I grew up believing I was worthless. I have tried to kill myself by "alcohol poisoning" by drinking wine (the only thing we had around the house). I was scared to cut myself or take pills because I thought my mother would get mad at me and hit me (she was also physically abusive). My dad was the only parent that I loved and he too was a victim of my mothers abuse. I grew up afraid of people and I don’t do well with crowds at parties or gatherings. I often catch myself insulting my own being by saying "Im such a pig", "Im so disgusting". The last time my mother hit me was when I was about 21 years of age. Around that time, she said she was ashamed of me and that I was the biggest failure she had because I got myself pregnant twice out of wedlock (I ended up miscarrying both babies do to health problems). Now going at 30, these memories still hurt. I hate looking at elementary and junior high pictures because it reminds me of the ridicule I experienced. Not even the so-called "nerds" wanted to hang out with me...it was that bad. I was never invited to birthday parties or special events. And teachers would favor the popular kids over me when it came time for many things, including discipline (I got in trouble for defending one of my only friends when she was being teased). I was blamed for a lot of things I didnt do, and the popular kids went on without getting in trouble. I remember one teacher, who was really close to some of the popular girls, teased me about having a crush on a boy and she would laugh with the other girls about it. Teachers need to be held accountable too. I promised myself to never, EVER, put down my child. Never make her feel less than me or anyone. To never hit her out of uncontrollable anger or take anything out on her. To respect my husband, even if I am mad at him, and to never talk bad about him to my children. I promised myself to never, EVER, be like my mother and to do everything possible to protect my baby from kids who want to destroy her (I finally had a baby). I hope someday, bulling becomes a law, a law where kids can actually end up in juvenile hall or something. Someone quoted "(bulling) is dehumanizing the human race". There should be serious consequences for being a bully. And both the victims and the predators parents should be looked upon because the root of all of these problems come down to how the child is being raised. And for those who make ignorant comments like "Im sorry I hate you, I just can’t help it", It’s people like you that need the most help because It’s people like you who destroy lives, including your own. I am now a mommy of one little girl who I love dearly and am married to the most loving man I have ever had in my life. I became a Christian and that has helped me, bit by bit, to learn to love who God made me and to know that His love is all that matters. And yes, I still live with my mother. She can’t take care of herself financially and all my other siblings can not stand her or afford her, and I was the last one to marry, so she got stuck with me, and I try to avoid talking to her as much as possible because she still tries to manipulate or insult me. And as for the kids from my past...I tried to be friends with them on Myspace or Facebook (we are all adults now, we should have all grown up) and some did add me and we chat once in a while about our present lives. Others, they never responded and some have blocked me. And still I wonder what I did wrong. I am now trying to be more social, more for my husband because he is a very social person, and for myself so I can learn to enjoy the company of other people without the fear of insult or embarrassment. I hope and pray something good comes from all of our pains and sorrows from our past so it can protect the precious souls that are going to live and take care of this world once we are gone. I hope and pray all these stories, and this web site, changes someones bitter heart and raises awareness on how serious this issue really is. God bless all of you out there! - City


Alex: I stuck up for you when no one wanted to be your friend. When all the popular kids made fun of you for your weight and called you stupid. I invited you into my own circle because I didn't want you to feel any ounce of sadness. No one liked you, but I told them to give you time, and to be kind to you. When they started to come around you loved the attention, loved it so much that you lied and manipulated everyone to turn against me so you could be the "it" girl. I lost every single one of my friends my senior year of high school because of your cold heart. I hope you one day realize how much my desire for you to feel loved left me with nothing. - City


Kate: One girl in my grade claims she is my "best friend," but often puts me down. When I told her where I was going for fall break she rolled her eyes!!! (?????????) she told me last year that she really wants to be in the popular group, and now shes in. although she says shes still my "bff," im a little pissed that she betrayed me for them. - City


E: There is this girl that I went to pre-school with and we've been best friends for such a long time! Well since we started 5th grade she tries to keep our conversations short and simple. Sometimes she can be really nice and other times she is soooooo mean. she will talk to you one day and the next she doesn't want to be seen standing next to you. she thinks that she is "popular". - City

A: The main problem with girls starts way back. Girls are afraid of change and to be different. It is a constant struggle to be the same and girls who set the standard of being a "certain kind of person" are also very insecure themselves. I have never been "popular" and have always tried to be myself. But in all honesty, rarely have I seen girls as themselves.That being said, when I do, they are the one's who are my true friends. - City


Mini T: I stood by you when people talked behind your back, though I too was upset with what you said (about me and my other friends). You lied to me and told me I was talented when I am not, isn't that why you got in and I didn't? you are super confident and every guy likes you, and I am sure you are well aware of that. You never take in to consideration the people that you hurt really do get hurt. I spent my whole summer obsessing over how mean you were to me. You thought you were better than me and I promised myself I wouldn't put up with it... And I tried to ignore you, but you came back and so did i. everyone loves you apparently. I always go searching for someone who feels the same way about you, but I find that I am one of a kind. I’m sorry. I feel so badly for telling that girl how pissed I was at you, and I am sorry for letting another girl read this. but people feel the same way, im just the only one who will admit it. You constantly told me last year to tell you when you were doing wrong, but I thought past it and decided that it is your job to take responsibility for your actions. I can’t let you run my life anymore, so I think we need to have an honesty day where we tell each other the truth. because we havent... we have put a mask on how we truly feel. im not really sure why im your friend because I don’t feel like im someone who fits in with you... but I want to run my own life, follow if you want, have fun with your career, just remember the girl who stood by you when no one else did. I still havent told anyone your secrets, maybe my mom a couple of times to get advice. just please be aware that I am still your best friend forever, because if you don’t know that, that is not my fault. I have told you countless times but you don’t see it. I am just a blank wall, trying to stay clean, but you just throw paint sploches all over me. those paint sploches are mostly tears, tears that come with joy. but don’t forget those black sploches,just black holes, leading to my heart and true feelings. care to ask me how I feel sometimes? that would be the best thing you could ever give me. remember: you are my BFF and I hope that never changes, just make sure to look back when you are walking, cause of course, ill be there! - City

It\'s Gotta Get Better... : I cut myself earlier this year and told two of my closest friends. long story short....they aren’t my friends anymore. Apparently it put too much stress on our friendship. I was bitched out by one's mom and one of them denies all of the wrong she has done to me. - City


ehh... : How is it that you can say we are "besties" then go talk behind my back...How is it that I now feel self-consious and insecure when I used to not care. How is it that becoming friends with you changed myself for better and for worse. I don’t understand why you treat me like crap or even why I am still friends with you, but I do understand that I don’t deserve any of this. I know you may not realize it, but you hurt me everyday. - City


Amanda : It started the summer before 9th grade. my best friends turned against me for nothing other than the reason that they felt like it. They spread rumors about me and called me a bitch and a whore and a slut. They hated me. They made me hate me. I tried to make myself feel better by seeking out the comfort from guys. but I was just used. I’ve never said a single word to them that suggested anything but kindness. I tried to starve myself because then nobody can say that I died fat. I hate myself. I hate them. I hate everyone. - City


Anonymous: I was raped summer going into 8th grade, everyone believed his story and thought I was lying even though I brought the law into it... All of my friends stopped being my friends and I sat at lunch very self concious of what other people were saying about me and whether people were looking at me or not for the whole first semester and a lot of the second semester that year,everywhere I looked people scowled at me and continued to whisper is another persons ear. I heard my friends talking about me behind my back and many other of my classmates were talking behind my back as well. People I didn't even know sent me hate mail saying that I should go kill myself. A lot of highschoolers threw pebbles at me as I walked by them and called me dirty names. I grew tired of the drama and I felt lonely and hated. I began to cut myself and when that wasn’t enough I started having eating disorders and I actually turned to alcohol to make the pain go away.. I eventually turned to suicide but my attempts failed. Right now, I am glad that they failed and I am glad that I went through this. I have no regrets in my life because I learned a lot from all of my experiences. And although I still have times where I am tempted to cut, I have wonderful friends who have gone through tough times who help me through it. I am a freshman now and I couldn’t honestly ask for a better life. I have great friends and I love my school. I forgave everyone who had made me hurt even the guy who raped me. If God forgives everyone why can't we. I aspire to be an image of him and right now I am a work in progress. Live*Love*Be Kind* - City


Anonymous: Your face will forever be in my head. What did I do to make you make fun of me? It was 'only' in sixth grade. You sat behind me and made stupid jokes and laughed at me and got other people to do it too. I have always remembered this, even if I have pushed it from my mind. But this year I could have sworn you enrolled in my school. You didnt. She looks exactly like you, and I cant be friends with her because of how you treated me. - City


Anonymous : So my best friend got a new boyfriend. two days after she dumped the old one. now of course I’m going to warn her and tell her to slow down otherwise rumors will start spreading. but obviously she didn't listen. now, we have only been friends for 2 months because I’m new to the school. oh did I mention it's an all girls school? So when she started dating the guy I was all happy for her and everything, but I was also worried. Like I said its an all girls school which means rumors are bound to start. My friend told me to write on her arms about her boyfriend and stuff so I did. A couple hours later she's yelling at me for it. First, she's telling people that I just did it even though she told me not to and then when I reminded her that it was her idea she said that she thought I wasn't going to write so big. Now I know this sounds stupid and not worth anyone's time reading but it hurt that she would try lying to me. so I did something I probably shouldn't. I started telling people that she's a slut. They agreed with me, but I started it. I don't regret it at the moment because it happened very recently, but maybe in the future I will. - City

Anonymous : My friend got a new boyfriend. two days after dumping her old one. She is/was my best friend but she started acting really bratty and mean after she started dating the new guy. I started telling people how slutty I thought she was and people agreed. It was true. Now I know I shouldn't have started saying bad things about her, but I couldn't help it. I also wasn't the only person in the wrong. I wasn't able to always go to the parties that my friends had and it turns out my best friend was telling all of the guys I can't date. It’s true, but I later found out it was because she was jealous of me. So overall, we both did things we shouldn't and I don't think we're good as best friends. - City


Dear Amanda: Friends do not just turn on you there is always an underlying reason that you had either not knowing it or even maybe you did not realize but your friends did. I would ask your friends what you did honestly. - City


......: it started in elementary school. I asked a girl (who I thought was my friend) to tie my shoe. simple right? well she rolled her eyes and did what I kindly asked her to do. She could have said no...instead she went around during recess telling everyone that I was super bossy. then the message spread to my teacher who told me I needed to stop bossing my peers around. I had a reputation. my teacher believed in it..so I felt awful..no one would believe me. the teacher gave the other student permission to call me "BG" for "bossy girl" and if I was ever being "bossy" they could call me a BG...so then they were able to call me names...i never told anyone how much it hurt. I just sucked it up and figured maybe I was being bossy since everyone kept telling me I was. I remember going home crying almost every day after school...i didn't have any friends for a while..luckily the summer helped people forget about that nickname of mine. then I went into my 5th grade year with a fresh start. that same girl was completely mean to me..she made fun of me in every way. it was little things but it added up and it hurt sooo...badly. I would dread going to school the next day. the next year I switched to a new school. being the new girl was hard enough..that year went okay. the next year a new girl came and started rumors about me. she called me a slut and bitch and lots of other names. I didn't understand why she chose me. I had never even had one conversation with her and here she was saying things about me and judging me. I cried. And got soo mad at her. I’m still totally mad at her. I hate her. she hates me. luckily I go to a new school where I haven't had that much trouble. just little drama here and there. but whatever. it doesn't matter anymore. - City

None: I hate life. My friend say they are my friends but they talk bad about me behind my back. It hurts me that they do this. I can't handle all the lies they tell me. One girl always says I look like a bird or a boy or someother thing, she says it all serious like then goes and tries to laugh it off. It really hurts me. I've confronted her with her talking about me before and with the names, but she always says she didnt do it or she was joking. This hurts me cause I cant really trust her anymore. I dont like it and I cant handle these things. I hate how because of how she and my other "friends" make me feel. they make me have thoughts, bad thoughts, thoughts that a girl my age shouldnt have, thoughts that no one should have. Thoughts of death and leaving everyone. Thoughts of killing. These aren't the best thoughts to be thinking. I can't deal with her or anyone else but I still talk to them and go back for more crap that she gives me. I dont know why she chooses to make fun of me but it hurts. Hear me Sarah, it hurts and I dont like it. I have felt like cutting or killing myself cause of you, but I always try to be the stronger person. So far it's been working but I am scared, scared for my life, that I will eventually get to overwhelming and I will so something to hurt me. Sarah I’m sorry if I ever did anything, but I know whatever it is, I dont deserve this MUCH crap. please dont hate me, dont make fun of me, dont hurt me anymore. I just want to be your friend but if you dont, then tell me so you aren't leading me on again and again - City


Anonymous : I had no friends. I would sit alone at breaks during school, on my laptop so it looked like I was studying. Whenever I saw anybody in public, I would pretend to text because I was alone. I had no real friends. Everybody was two-faced. I would be with one girl, just the two of us, and they would treat me like we were best friends. She would laugh at my jokes and we would talk about normal things. Then if we joined a crowd, she would roll her eyes at everything I said. If I said something she had thought was funny a moment before, she would smirk and tell me I was an idiot. people were so mean. Anything I said was wrong. When I offered an idea, it was ignored. People never invited me anywhere, It felt like no one loved me. I wanted to die. I thought the only place I belonged was with God, but as things got worse, I stopped believing in god and felt completely alone. I wanted out. I tried to kill myself so many times. I tried strangling myself, I tried over dosing many times, I tried drowning, I tried jumping off things, I tried to just stop breathing. Sometimes I would pray that I would die in a car accident or something. Others, I wanted to commit suicide and leave a note to make those girls feel sorry for what they did, but there was always something that stopped me. Now, I realize the somewhere deep down I knew things were going to get better. I knew that one day, I would succeed and the those girls would be jealous. Today, I have really good friends who love me, and I love them. I have people I can go to with anything. I promise you that everything will get better. Hold on for a little longer and you will find a person that likes you for who you are. - City

I was angry that night because it seemed like my best friend in the world changed in a negative way. I love her to death and I feel extremely bad about what I said, but why should I be criticized for saying what I feel? It makes me upset to think that on a truth wall, it's hard to tell the truth. I’m sorry that I called my friend a slut and I would take it back. But you can't take anything back. I didn't spread it to the whole world, I literally only told 3 of my closest friends what I thought. If I could do it over, I guess I would have remained silent and not expressed how I felt. - City


Anonymous : I have no idea what a best friend is. All the quotes about two souls in one body, all the pictures I see of girls sharing time together and becoming "sisters", all the laughter at school, I simply do not know how that feels. I have always been the "quiet" girl, but now, all I want to do is scream. I started at a new school this year, high school was beginning for me, and I saw it as a fresh start and a means to reinvent myself. This did not work. Everyone seems to take me for granted, and I feel that I would be the best friend to anyone if they would just let me in, but no one seems to care about me. - City

Holly : My school years, from sometime in elementary school through high school, were a nightmare. Yes, I suppose I was a bit "dorky", and a bit of a social misfit, but I was still a nice kid. It wasn't entirely my fault, because my parents dressed me in hand-me-downs and garage sale clothes, and they never attempted to teach me any social skills. But those flaws made me a target to all those who saw me as "different". Luckily, I had a small circle of female friends throughout those years, who liked me in spite of my lack of social graces. I thank GOD for them, because if I hadn't known that no matter what others did to me, that they still loved me, I probably would have totally given up. There were MANY times, especially as a teen, when I wanted to take my own life to escape the hell I was living in. The only thing that saved me was knowing that at least a few people thought I mattered. Even now, DECADES later, the things that were done to me still hurt almost as bad as they did when it happened. I can still remember the humiliation of having to get a super-short haircut after some girls put gum in my hair at a play. Or being tripped in gym class, so that I fell and got a bloody nose. Or having my clothes stolen during gym class, so that I had to wear my gym clothes all day, in the middle of winter. Or when I finally made a cheerleading squad, thinking I was finally going to be accepted, but they ignored me, and intentionally told me a different date for yearbook pictures so that I wouldn't end up in the group photo, and got the yearbook staff to leave my name out as well. It makes me cry EVEN NOW, just remembering it. I’m sure they all moved on with their lives, thinking that what they did was no big deal, but it IS. The pain lasts a very long time. It took YEARS for me to stop hating myself, and even more years for me to like who I am. I couldn't go to the H.S. reunions because I didn't want to face those jerks. And I never really understood WHY they did these things to me. I never hurt anyone, I never bothered anyone. And when I had a child of my own, I made sure he always understood how the way he treated others made an impact. he grew up to be a very well-liked kid, because he was nice to everyone. I am very glad for all the recent attention to bullying, and how serious it really is. If just ONE kid is saved from living through what I did, then it will have made a difference. I know that kids will probably always still be kids, but I truly hope that this is the beginning of some real change, and acceptance for everyone. - City

Caligirl: I really-really am trying to help my friend but I don't know what to do...she sent an "inappropriate picture" of herself to a guy who said he was alone when there were four other guys. I was told by one of them who I am close with; and he only told me because he felt he needed to tell someone...but wanted it to be someone who he knew wouldn't tell other people (me). I still have not and don't plan on telling anyone else. However, the other guys who were there apparently managed to tell practically all the guys at their school (all boys school). She is a really good friend of mine (although how we came to be this close is a long struggling story). Recently there was a party/gathering that we were all attending. At this gathering she, I , my guy friend, and a few other girls were dancing. Every now and then the guy she sent the picture would come over and start dancing but would leave kind of laughing and shaking his head. I gave my guy friend and one of his friends a ride home, and during the ride I had been texting the girl. She had told me to tell them hi, and when I did, neither one of them replied. This reassured me that the entire grade pretty much new about the picture now. My guy friend told me, once I dropped him off about how the guy who had received the picture had been saying "he just couldn't do it" when referring to the dancing. When she and I continue to talk, she always talks about getting a group together and getting some cute popular fun guys to hang out with, but I know that they all won't want to because of the incident. It’s really upsetting me and I don't know how to go about it. And the friendship between her and the guy she sent the picture was somewhat important (I’m not 100% about it) and I wouldn't want to make that a mess. ESPECIALLY if she didn't send the picture, but based on the reactions, and knowing her, I think she probably did. I am not one to judge her for it, especially based on our past together, but I know that others will. I don't want to ruin our friendship by telling her if it's not true, and I don't want to ruin it if it is. :'( - City

Claire : I was a target. I was THE target. If others had it bad, I had it worse. That’s what people said about me. And that's what people say about me. I don't know why. It’s always been that way, and probably still will be for awhile. I don't care about it anymore though. I am willing to allow myself to really see the power I have over myself and my life. "they are just words". yes they are just words, but they do have power. I really understand that and that still affects me, even after years and years of being targeted. I just hope that anyone else who is looking for hope knows that they are real, they have a purpose, and there really is so much more to life than the people that make themselves the center of it. - City


Jules : In 7th and 8th grade I thought I had a best friend. She was really nice and she made everyone else who was her friend feel like they were the most important people in the world because when they were with her, they were. We will call her Mandy. In 7th grade I and two other friends (who we will call Ashton and Gloria) were best friends with this girl. Then, Mandy decided she didn’t like Gloria any more and dumped her from being her friend. Naturally, I hated that girl from then on. I made up reasons I didn’t like her. I was really mean and really really wrong. Gloria tried to warn me. she told me that yes being buffs with Mandy was fun and it makes you feel really important but it was not worth it. She told me I was being used and was going to be thrown away someday. This made me hate her even more. Well, I want to say sorry to Gloria because she was right. I was dumped my Mandy. She wouldn’t talk to me at the beginning of this year until Gloria, Ashton, and I became best friends. Every time we tried having sleepovers or coordinating costumes for dances etc, Many would have to know. Now, even though Ashton was never officailly dumped, she doesnt like Mandy. I dont like Mandy. I feel bad for Many and her two new bffs. Every day, Ashton, Gloria, and I see Mandy's new followers and want to warn them to stay away, to not get to attached, and to be on your guard, Girls like Mandy are dangerous. They use and abuse you and only want to hang out with you when they need you. Gloria and Ashton told me I was such a different person when I was friends with Mandy. I would follow her around and do everything she said and all they could do was watch and see me get crushed my My ex-bff. I'm really sorry to anyone that I hurt when I was friends with this girl. I was mean and very-very wrong. It’s really hard to see when you are in a bad friendship with someone like Mandy but just know when you inevitably get that cold shoulder, there will be girls out there like Ashton, Gloria, and I who have gone through the same thing - City

Anonymous: When I was in 5th grade my best friends threatened to kill me. I didn't understand at the time what it meant at the time so ignored it. It happened again and once more on my birthday. That night I told my mom what happened. My friends turned against me, thinking I made it up and couldn't believe I told on my best friend. They took her side and left me in the dark. I thought it was my problem and my fault. I was stuck having to find a new group. Those girls today became a bigger group and are the more "popular" crowd. They party and hang out with all the guys. I love my friends now, but I look around and just by the way I look, act, and feel I know i belong with the happier and more popular people. Naturally I know I belong with them, even though I wouldn't have the great friends I have today. - City

Anonymous : I just want to say thank you to a rare kind of girl. She is/was one of the "popular" girls but she was never catty or mean, she always had time to listen to anyone who looked like they needed someone, and she tried to make everyone smile at least once while she was around. Other girls were jealous of her because a lot guys liked her but whenever they tried to start rumors about her or anything, she would go to them directly and ask them how she had wronged them and if there was anything she could do to fix it. She never did anything wrong to them, they were just jealous and they would feel guilty for being catty to someone so undeserving. We were not best friends, she was just in one of my classes, but she made everyone feel special when they were with her. She showed me how girls are supposed to be to each other and to everyone, she taught me that kindness can be the best defense and offense. I don’t know what she's doing now but I have a feeling its something great, because she was an all around amazing girl and I aspire to be like her daily. So thank you. - City

Crazy Beautiful : I could not imagine my life without my friends. Without these strong, intellectual, beautiful girls, I'd probably be six feet under by now. When I was in the 7th grade, my parents filed for a divorce the first time. It was a tough time, but to add on to the stress, my best friends spread rumors about me and ostracized me from my entire class. Because of all the stress I developed an eating disorder, started cutting. They are things that I still deal with now, 6 years later. But (mostly through my amazing friends) I have found that even through all the difficult things I've been through, I am still the same crazy beautiful me and I should be happy with myself and love myself because I am not the only one. We're all a little crazy beautiful, and we all love someone thats a little crazy beautiful. To all the girls on here who have bullied other girls, remember that you don't know their lives. They could be going through so much more than you know, so be a little compassionate. Don't assume. Just be kind. And to all you girls on here who feel like you're the only one, don't. Just continue to be you and know that someone loves you just for that- just for you being you. - City

Anonymous : I'm a college freshman. I started out the semester with a great group of friends. However, a few weeks in, my "friends" would hang out without me and then lie about what they did that night. I stopped going to meals with them because I wanted them to know I knew what was going on. What's really tough is that I go to a huge university and I feel so lost and alone. For a few weeks now I've felt as though I want to die. I don't have a real friend here that I can rely on. I'm afraid to put myself out there to meet new people because my former friends dropped me without any explanation. Literally, all I did was be a friend to them. Luckily, through the KIND Campaign I know I'm not so alone and I'm going to join some organizations in the spring semester. Hopefully things will turn up soon. Peace, Love, and Kindness ;) - City


Lindsey : I had a close group of friends in eighth grade; my closest was my best friend Elyssa. Elyssa was the one you would label the mean, popular girl. I would say that we were equal in social status but I wasn't as catty as her. She decided to ostracize a girl in my group of friends. Unfortunately, though I had the social power to be a good person and stick up for this girl, I was a bystander and just went along with what Elyssa did because she was my best friend. The girl we picked on cried in school often and I could tell she was completely miserable. By my sophomore year of high school I patched things up with that girl. However, Elyssa dropped me as a friend freshman year to be with some more popular girls. Since then I have really made an effort to be a nicer person and to not single people out. It's just not right and not fair. - City

Heidi (South Africa) : I was bullied from pre-school right through Primary and High School including college. Bullied by both guys and girls. At 24 yrs old I learnt I had social phobia (I was born with it). I am now 35 yrs old. When the teenagers next door to me are outside in their garden, I find it very difficult to go outside. I feel scared, rejected and think that they are going to mock me or verbal abuse me - even though I know they are not going to and don't even notice I am there. But the pain from school gets relived.

Amanda : Looking back on my days in school, it was shockingly simple to recall a number of bullying incidents that I was involved in whether the victim or the guilty party. I know that at times I could not handle the pressure of being an independent self secure teenaged girl and I have lashed out on another girl before. To Holly I do apologize now for my behavior. Harsh words and hair pulling had no effect on the reality of middle school and it was pointless for me to lash out. I can recall however, far more instances where I was the victim. One in particular being the first day of middle school. Eight people to a lunch table seems like a simple enough cafeteria rule, until you are the one being voted out of a seat. I was half way through my lunch and was asked to move for someone that was liked better than I was apparently. I didn't know any of the other students from the other elementary schools so I stayed put. Shortly after finishing my lunch once again I was asked to move, more aggressively this time, a few girls from across the cafeteria claimed to recognize my name. I wonder if the girl asking me to move even remembers this day. I have never forgotten it. That was just the first day of middle school, I have six years of similar school stories. I know we are all imperfect, but I believe in the Kind Campaign and wish to end girl-against-girl bullying. Sorry to those whom I may have offended and Sorry to those whom don't remember offending me. I hope to do my best as an educator now, to assist young girls in recognizing their negative behavior and correcting it. - City


Alyssa : I've only started high school but that's where it's changed for me. Ever science kindergarten I've picked on called names hated ect... 5th grade is where it all started again i was just getting back into public school from homeschooling and I thought I thought that I would have some friends...the week after my first day of school is when it started...the only real "friends" I had were the principle and one guy who was in the same boat as me. It was one of the worst half years of school ever. If I could go back and stand up for myself I would because all the name calling and picking on followed me all through middle school. I'm glad i switched schools because so far it's the best year I've ever had.

You can't go anywhere without someone saying something mean about someone else, and if you slip up or say something wrong once, everyone will gossip about you and treat you poorly.

I should be happy for the new semester and one of my last years of college, but I'm not. I dread going to school and have cried over the social aspect more than a 20 year old woman should.

Anonymous : Sadly, my mean girl experience in middle school still lingers with me today and I'm almost 24 years old. Their teasing and excluding, but still keeping me around to bring me down, completely wore down my self confidence through my early teenage years and greatly affected how I related to other girls through high school. Fortunately, I attended a public high school and soon realized most girls won't judge you as harshly as those in that small, private school on your appearance, the brands you wear, your age, your boyfriend, your other girl friends, your lack of a barbie tan and platinum blond hair, your sex life (yes, at 13), etc. I feel for those girls stuck in a fake reality confined by girl drama like in my private school, and too young to know there exists a much larger, more diverse world outside where that bull**** doesn't even matter and where you will one day feel confident and beautiful! I can't even imagine what it must be like now 11 years later for girls in this day and age. Even though I still remember what it was like feel like that 13 year old girl afraid to be herself, sadly I don't think those girls today have any idea how they hurt me. - City

Til : in 4th grade, one of my friends became really popular. she choose her friends carefully, knowing that some just wanted to take advantage of her. This friend trusted me, and we stayed friends, however, some girls didnt get chosen to be her friend. one girl decided to be mean to me and this changed my life. i was scared to be around some people who used to be my friends. There was a rope hanging on the fence left over from a cut jump rope and i tied the other end up onto another part of the fence. i fit my head into the loop and attempted to hang myself, but the rope wasnt high enough and my friend, (the popular one), convinced me not to.

Still remembers : When I was in third grade I was playing dodge ball with my so called girl friends. One of them threw the ball and it hit me in the head, and broke one of the clips I was wearing. Instead of saying sorry she said I was ugly and started to sing a song saying "your U-G-L-Y you ain't go no alibi you ugly." My other friends started to join in instead of standing up for me. I started crying and they didn't stop. Till this day I remember that and I am now 21 years old. - City

Lorena : Just recently I had a friend who is going through hard times feel that I did not love and support and encourage them to go for what they want. Because I am creating my dream I believe I got impatient with hers. And as such became irritated with her constant need to talk about what really was worrying her. There became a tit for tat aspect to our friendship that I should have stopped when I saw it occurring. I am sorry for making her feel hurt, unloved, and unsafe in a time when she needs support most. As a woman in my forties I see too often how the competition, insecurity, and fear lead women to treat their friendships and friends with a need to control. The worry that someone might outshine you is constant. And instead you need to celebrate them in love and honor them. This is a constant issue that I hear, especially for strong women. I know that it hurts cause I've been on the receiving end, but how to stop the almost brutal worry of being left behind or alone. This makes women more hurtful and in a way vicious. So we need to put pride aside, as I plan to do after submitting this story. Pride can undo so much in our lives. Take the high road and be kind. - City


Someone: I have certain belief that some kids at my school think is weird or different. And just because of that, i have been physicly and mentally hurt. My used to be friends turned the tables on me. one pushed an entire desk into me, knocking me over and i almost had to go to the doctor. another always called me names and swore at me. And this was only the beginning for me because that was only two of my friends, i had a lot more! Take my story as a lesson, everyone goes through the same thing, but maybe they express their feelings differently than you. - City


Maddy: I don't know what to say. Basically I am sorry if I have ever done anything mean because I know how it feels. Now I take my time to talk to everyone even if they may not be beautiful may not be smart may not be skinny- I don't care because the people that mean girls judge are usually the ones who are the best friends. - City


Courtney : It was my first day of 8th grade at a new school. I was scared to death and didnt know anyone. After a long day of getting lost and being late to all my classes, it was finally time to go home. I sat alone on the bus only to overhear the girls' conversation behind me. One asked the other "Do you know who she is? Should I sit with her?" and the other replied, "No, she's not even that pretty anyways." that was 8 years ago... and ill never forget how bad my heart hurt that day because it was the day i lost my self esteem. *Be kinder then necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle* - City


Stephanie : When I was in middle school, we found an old box of my mother's things in the basement. We pulled it down, and had a great time looking through pictures of her with terrible clothes and hair styles. We found her old year book and were reading some of the messages that people had written. Amidst the "Have a Great Summer’s and the countless "See you next year!"s someone had written "lose some weight", no signature. When I looked at it I was immediately horrified and infuriated. I looked up at my mother's face and she was crying. At the time, my mother was in her forties. It had been decades since middle school but the bullying still hurt and embarrassed her as a grown woman. My mother had always told me how words hurt but it wasn’t until then that I realized she was still haunted by her own past even as an adult. I wish that everyone realized how one sentence can impact a person’s self-esteem and self-worth for years. My mother has always said something that stuck with me my entire life: “You don’t have to be best friends with everyone, but there is no reason to be mean to anyone”. - City


Erika: it was a normal day of 9th grade, hanging with friends, worrying about my best friend who was addicted to drugs, and getting through a day not being able to help them. my best friend in the whole world had decide to share my heartbreaking secret with many others and out of the blue told me," You are stupid, why would you help him? Let him have fun! drugs aren't bad for you! if you help him you won’t be cool and no one will like you!" by losing my best friend who only cared about what other would say, i helped the other to get better and they are now one year sober. without the help they recieved that person would have overdosed and i would have lost my true best friend forever. - City

Anonymous : In the third grade I ran away from daycare. There was a group of us, it was so silly we were trying to go "buy c.d.s at the local Fred Myers." Anyways, one of my friends at the time decided to bail at the last minute, and when the teachers asked her where we had gone she told on us (in her situation I would have done the same.) The group of us (guys and girls) got into a lot of trouble, we all stopped talking to Emily after that. That alone was awful enough, but one day we decided to pretend like we were all friends again... at the end of the day we told her it was "a joke." In middle school we talked about it, she told me all that she went through with the whole debacle and what it did to her, I apologized and she truly forgive me but it has been 14 years and I can still feel the guilt. I hate that I did that to her, to anyone. Emily is an amazingly strong and brilliant person. She is off doing big and great things in the world now and I am proud to know her as my friend. After that experience I have gone out of my way to make other people feel good, I'm the nice girl now and have been for a long time, which is such a better feeling. People need to understand the power and influence you carry as another person on the planet. Being kind doesn't only benefit others it can change the way you feel about yourself. - City


Anonymous : My Best friend didn't like the fact that I was dating an old boyfriend again, and he was around alot. She decided to start leaving me out of everything, but saying mean things when I wouldn't come around her. I decided to confront her about it and she told me that we were no longer friends. It hurt really bad. Now the other girls she hangs out with treat me really badly like I'm invisable. I don't want to be their friend anymore becuase I don't deserve anything they have done/ said about me. I just wish she would have been the friend for me, that I was to her. - City

Anonymous : During middle school, 2 girls that i thought were my so-called friends spread a rumour about me that i was lesbian, which i was most definitely not. eventually, this rumour got to a group of 'popular' girls who basically 'ruled the school' or whatever you wanna call it. this group of popular girls who i was friends with at one point rejected me and gave me dirty looks wherever i went. i was so affected that i wanted to die and never come to school again, or show my face in public places. thank god i continued to go to school and manage a 4.0 GPA average because i honestly considered suicide an option. i am finishing 8th grade right now and whenever i see those girls, i think of all the rude, hurtful things they have said to me. but one day, a girl in their group came up to me and told me that i was beautiful, smart, kind, and funny and perfect just the way i was. that meant so much to me. Thank you so much caelin. - City

Chelsea : Girls have such power that no one knows about. That power goes into all of our emotions and enhances them. When a girl is mean to another girl, that power goes into that meanness. The same goes with hurt from being bullied. The power in that hurt just enhances 10 times more. We all need to be reminded of that. - City


Morgan : I loved the Kind Campaign documentary, the stories from all the different girls reminded me of all the "girl on girl crime" I have dealt with throughout my life. Starting in Elementary school, the girls in my 4th grade class would physically abuse me by pulling my hair and kicking me. It grew so bad that I was eventually removed from my class with these girls and put into another class. In middle school, I started off in 6th grade as the new girl with little to no friends. Then in seventh grade got into a group of girls who I thought were my friends but would continuously embarrass me and say hurtful things. They would call my house at night and yell at me. The bullying didn't just stop there, in high school I was completely shunned from my group of friends for almost 6 months because of a false rumor that had surfaced. I remember walking through the hall ways completely alone while people would stare and whisper about me. Eventually the bullying stopped as I learned to defend myself but then during my senior year the junior class began to bully me again. Calling me names, comparing me to animals, vandalizing my house and my car, making a fake facebook page about me. Not that I am in college, the girl on girl violence against me has stopped. But the pain it caused me has lived on. I now live my life, being kind or at least trying my best to never make anyone feel the way I did. Thank you Lauren and Mollie for your message!!! - City


Kelly : All of my issues started about 6th grade when my best friend left me for the cheerleaders... i felt like i didnt have anyone. She wanted to be popular apparently thats all she really cared about, then her best friend payton started to bully me i would cry every single day and ask for help but no one listened all i wanted to do was die.... but evenually i made new friends later in 6th grade Jen and Kenz yet... sadly at the begining of 7th grade they both left me to become more popular... and you want to know whats worse? its being lied to, they told me they loved me and where both still my best friends but then why would they stop talking to me and start talking behind my back... Now in 8th grade me and Jen have reconnected and are best friends but now im friends with a girl named bay and well shes not very nice... she gets bullied a lot... but she also is the bully. Shes so mean towards other people... sometimes vishious. and a lot of the times i dont want to be around her whens shes mean i always am telling her if you want people to stop bullying you then you need to stop bullying them... well look as if our school is very popular oranted and everyone is just social climbers... but to me none of that matters...

Brianna : I had a best friend for 8 years. At my freshmen homecoming dance she found out i liked the same guy as her. She ran up to me and started screaming in my face, i went to the bathroom and cried, and cried some more at home. For months after that she had turned the whole volleyball team on me and any friends i had made prior to that. Many things were said about me on facebook and other social network sites. I started dating this guy since our friendship was over and i didnt think it could get any worse. When i ended the relationship with this guy his sister was threatening to beat me up and making fun of me because i got my parents involved and i threatened to call the cops. I was scared to go to school in case she would be there and hurt me. I am the nicest person, the last thing i want to do is hurt people, i cant tell people no and i let what they say hurt me. My freshmen year of highschool has been the toughest and i shedded many tears, its only made me stronger. - City


Anonymous : in middle school one of my friends and i got in a fight and all i can remember is the last word she called me and that wast i was FAT. granted i was not the slimmest girl but i was defined not fat. i told my mom we got in a fight but did not tell her what went one in it. later on what she called me really hit me and i started to exercise more and consume less just to please her. i never told my parents about it. i just wanted approval.i am still friends with her after we made up but i still will always have this in my head. it seems silly to be concerned about just one word and i am sure she did not mean it in a hurtful way but she did not know how much it ruined me - City


Zoë : There was this girl at my school who was different. She was tall and slightly overweight, but a nice person. She didn't have many social skills, but she wasn't awful. People started teasing her in the worst ways - gossiping about her, pretending to be her friend, daring her to do things because then she'd be "in" with the crowd. She did stage crew for the shows in our drama department, and even though she was a hard worker, her frustration led to more ostracism. One night, during the forth show I was doing with her, the entire cast started ganging up on her, screaming about how much they hated her. These were people she had truly believed were her friends. She ran into another room, trying to get away, and I went after her. The look on her face, the words she said - nothing could express how devastated she was. It was the saddest thing I have ever seen. I never ever want to see that look again. Just because someone is different doesn't mean you have to treat them that way. Seeing someone's heart broken is not worth five minutes of fun. I promise to never let her go unprotected again. We are all so beautiful and deserve so much more. - City


Anne : I am 23 years old and I still get panic attacks when I'm around people I don't know. My friends hate it because I just want to run away and hide. The minute I walk into a room and think that someone is judging me or looks at me the wrong way, I immediately analyze everything I have done from the second I walked in - as if I was the one doing something wrong. My friends have started avoiding me and don't want to be around me because I cry, get angry, and hide from people, but now that I need them the most, they're not here. It's very difficult to deal with and I know they don't understand what they are doing but I hope to overcome and help them understand how to be proactive and positive friends to people like me in the future. - City


Carol : In Seventh grade me and my friend Yfke got into a fight. I heard she was calling me names behind my back and so i called her a name. It soon became a war and she turned all my friends against me. Soon everyone hated me for what happened. I complained to the counselor and she took us both out of class to talk about it. So we did. Soon people started making rumors that i was calling this girl Named Jackie a lesbian when i wasn't. Im in the locker room 6th period when Jackie come up to me and says "imma F*** you up" in middle school people believe those rumors. When ever i walk down the halls now all i hear is mummers. Everyone Calls me a bitch, even tho they never heard my side of the story. Yfke used to be the nicest girl, prettiest and quietist girl ever. And now shes just Mrs.QueenBee. I et lunch by myself while reading because noone likes me. All because of a stupid fight. I've apologizd so many times. and she hasnt apologized not even once. I wanted to die. Until i realized i am better than them. I have things to do. I dont need people who are just going to bring me down. And since that day Jackie has threatened me so many times. Her facebook status is "Imma fight Carol. If not today, tomorrow." - City

I just want to go back to how it was before. Middle school was indeed a nightmare... But this is 1000x worse. I only has 3 bestfriends now... But one of them doesnt go to my school. I just feel so lonely and insane... i dont know what to do about it. Ive turned a few girls against myself, by doing things i could have easily avoided. Im just the girl that needs to do stuff to get attention, i do not know why, but i am. - City


Zoë : I've been friends with her since 6th grade and now she decides to leave me and the rest of our friends. She said,"I hope you don't mind, Zoë, but I'd like to meet other people." Of course I said yes because i can't keep her from doing something she wants to do, but now she doesn't sit with us at lunch. She hangs around all the populars and they don't even want her like we do. We love her, but she obviously cares more about fame than fortune. And everytime I see her, I want to say hi, and ask her why she doesnt sit with us anymore, but the words just won't form. - City


Janyl : My little girl has been horribly scarred. Not by outright bullying, but by ostracizing. She has social anxiety disorder, and most girls in the school she went to were "social butterfly wannabee's". We live in Scottsdale/Paradise Valley; in an upscale area and the people are mean snobs. The girls in her grade school treated her like "cellophane girl" they also spread stories about her to groups outside of school, so that she would be ignored there as well. Their mother's ignored both of us as well, no invitations, etc. My daughter is nice, polite, pretty and has no behavioral issues. She is just quiet, shy and withdrawn; aka not the cheerleader type. Needless to say we changed schools, she is in counseling for low self esteem issues stemming from this treatment for several years. It's funny-these same mom's who excluded my child and encouraged their children/girls to ignore and ostracize her have fundraisers for Phoenix Children's Hospital - they just wouldn't want them to come to their child's school I guess. - City

Anonymous : I have been "friends" with this one person for a pretty long time, and just a few weeks ago she called me off and started saying things about me that WAS NOT TRUE. she only cared about herself. she would go gossip to her boyfriend about things that were not true about me. i have a good amount of friends, and out of all those, two of them stood up for me. even my best friend didnt stand up for me... she just acted like nothing was happening. i accually think she was taking the other side. but i was getting really sick ans tired of this girl being mean to me so i went up to her and told her that what she is doing is not the best thing and i probobly shouldnt have but i said that we can try to be friends again. since then she hasnt been the nicest person but she is ok. i havnt told her this but if she decides one day that i am not "good" enough to be her friend, then i will be the one to tell her that it is done. i dont wanna be friends with her if she is gonna be like that. - City

Angelica Morales : It all started in 6th grade, It was my first year in middle school and didn't know much. During the middle of the year a girl that was in 7th tried to talk to me, but since I was really shy back then, when she would ask me questions I would just smile and nod my face, well I guess she didn't really like that, so the same day she got all of her friends, and waited for me after school outside of the gates, when i saw them I just stood there because I recognized the girl, so they all saw me as well, the next thing I heard was "get her!" so I started to run away, I was so scared, I didn't even know what I did wrong, I remember looking back and seeing about 20 girls running after me, I ran into the office crying and scared and had my mom pick me up from inside the school, the next day when I had to tell the principle what happen, she didn't believe me, the other girl told her that she didn't even know me, from that day on I was too scared to walk home.. Another thing that happened to me in middle school was in 8th grade. I didn't really have many friends at that time, but the one's I did have I trusted them with everything. So one day one of my "friends" that I considered my best friend told me some horrible stuff. I remember her telling me that I didn't deserve to live, that all the other girls as well as she were only my friends because they felt bad for me.She told me to just kill myself already and make the rest of the world happy, she would call me names and told me that I was hideous, she told me that I would never find someone who will love me, and she said that I was a disgrace to the world. I couldn't believe it, the person who I trusted the most told me those horrible things.. It really sucked, I remember that after that day, every night for a pretty long time I would cry myself to sleep,I felt so self conscious and ugly, I felt like no one was there for me, I felt like what she had said was true. About a year later I started to cut myself, I felt like what she had said was true, I remember even writing a suicide letter thanking her towards the end for opening my eyes, thankfully I was too scared to harm myself that much. This went on for about 3 years. I don't know why she said that to me, but I know that I never did anything to her. I was always nice and very shy. I'm currently 19 years old and it still haunts me sometimes.. I always wonder how girls can be so mean and cruel sometimes. I remember the thing that opened my eyes was my baby brother.. I remember thinking to myself that I needed to stop cutting myself because If something like that were to happen to him, I would want to be there for him and for other girls as well. It's still very hard to talk about, i still tear up, because it just hurt so much inside. Ever since I was a little girl I had very low self esteem, and what those girls did to me made it worse, I'm not a very confident person, but I do realize that what she said wasn't true. I remember building up so much hatred towards her for doing that to me, I felt like she ruined my life... I know that there are many girls out there going through the same things I went through and worse, I just hope that girls realize how much damage they can do with their words. - City

Lena Atwood : On the first day of 6th grade I saw a new girl. Her name is Katie. She was beautifully gorgeous and had a great personality! All the boys immediateley liked her and I was very jealous. She is also athletic and in great shape. At first i thought that if I ignored her nobody would like her.....like me. But then I was feeling left out because all the girls and boys liked her. Her older sister Aubrey in 8th grade was also like that. As the year progressed she kept getting more and more friends and i felt like i was getting less and less. Now we have four more weeks of school and Katie and I are best friends. Our other friend michaela has hearing aids and getts made fun of so much! We have decided that shes no different from us she just can't hear and so we are now trying to become friends and not let her get picked on. I am so happy because we have talked and we used to hate each other! But now the three of us Katie Michaela and Lena are going to be friends forever! I love you guys!!!! - City


Rae : Because I was quiet, I had very few friends in school. False, hurtful rumors would always circulate about me because I didn't reveal anything about myself to anyone except the very few good people in my life. I felt like no one understood me, or ever could. I was tall, skinny, and I had a "strange" sense of fashion and music. I refused to change for anyone, though. Now, I'm 24. Being tall and thin isn't a bad thing anymore. I've done modeling, graduated with my degree, met my counterpart and accomplished several other things. Now, the girls that made me the joke in high school are typically obese and still stuck in my old, small town. Isn't that how the story goes? They want to become friends with me, over Facebook and whatnot. I don't know how to feel about this. All I can think of is the way I felt when I had to sit alone in the cafeteria, if the one friend I had was home sick. The way I felt when no one wanted to ask me to be in their study group. When I was laughed at for being who I was. I have spent a great deal of my life feeling like the dirt on the bottom of someone's shoe. In the past few years, I can honestly say that my perspective has changed entirely. I love myself, and after contemplating long and hard, I can only feel pity for those girls who eventually trapped themselves in their own selfish, narrow mindsets. Don't be afraid to be different. It doesn't take any courage to conform. If you're beautiful on the inside, it will show on the outside, one way or another. My love to every girl who reads this. Stay strong and love as much as you can. - City

Avi bhullar : I have had many experiences of being bullied. When u go to school I always know something bad will happen and I can never escape it. I know now I only have one true friend but in another school and we still keep in touch. But when I get home I usually look in the mirror and ask "why me.. You don't even know me. I could be kind but you don't want to ever find out." I know I will have to go through this my whole life and I don't want to. PS if people who have bullied me are reading this. Hope your happy. Because if you keep doing this you will face consequences. SO STOP!!!!!!! - City

Olivia Dev : I go to a small, private school called St. Joseph where clicks were already formed before I even started kindergarten. In fourth grade, I became best friends with a girl named Natalie. At the very end of that school-year she pulled me aside at recess and told me that I was a horrible friend. When I asked her for a second chance, she said "I've already given you a million chances." When the end of recess came and we all lined up as a class, she started talking really loudly about all the horrible things I'd done, which were actually not true. She made me cry in front of everyone. That whole summer no one talked to me. I came back to school and everyone ignored me or was mean to me. Ever since I've had a big struggle trying to be friends with the girls in my grade. Every friend that I've ever had has turned their back on me for some other group. I try to go to school dances but there isn't much dancing at all; everyone just walks around talking to one another. I try to make conversation, but they just walk away. I try to follow someone around that has been nicer to me lately, but they glare at me until I leave. Almost every other day I come home crying or on the verge of tears. There are 22 days until graduation, then I will be off to a big, public high-school. I hope it will be better. - City


Annabelle G.: In the 5th grade, I was really mean to this one girl. My friend and I basically told her we couldnt be friends because she wasn't cool. All I wanted was to fit in and be with the so called "popular" group, but now that I am older I have realized that its not a popularity contest, its about being with people that make YOU happy. I look back at it now and think,"How could I be so mean?" When Lauren and Molly came to my school, St. Joseph, it really made me think about how my actions can impact other people's feelings. Luckily, the girl I was mean to forgave me, and now we are really good friends. I just wish I had known that before, so I hadn't even hurt her feelings at all. Thanks for coming Molly and Lauren, you guys really make a big difference! - City


Claire : I am in the 6th grade and i was really mean to this girl. My friends and I pretty much decided to ditch her and be nonstop nasty to her and make her not want to look at us or come to school. The teachers got involved and she didn't come to school some days and when she did; she would bring her parents to come to lunch with her. Sarah, i am so sorry for being that evil person to you. You are a great friend for forgiving me. But im a horrible friend for making you have to forgive me. I will never forgive myself. Im sorry - City


Natalie p. : A couple weeks ago I really liked this boy but so did my best friend. I told her that she COULD NOT say yes if that guy asked her out. She became very upset and started crying every time I saw her. I made a huge mistake by doing that and felt horrible. And then molly and Lauren came to our shcool st. joseph)and really made a difference in my life. I wrote her a "kind apoligie" and told her she could say yes. we both cryed,huged and became friends again. Now she and that boy are a happy couple. Although I am sad that I am not with that great guy I am happy that she is happy! THANK YOU SO MUCH LAUREN AND MOLLY!!! YOU GOT TWO BEST FRIENDS BACK TOGETHER!!!! - City


Haley : I'm the kind of person who likes to plan things, and it's my specialty. It's who I am. But once my best friend told me that people talk about me behind my back, and call me a control freak. I didn't want to hear it. Once she left, I cried for hours. My own "best friend" doesn't even know how much she hurts me all the time. - City


Mccall Phillips: I am a 6th grader at Valley Catholic School in Portland, Oregon. It's my first year and I was expecting a nice welcome by all the kids. I got the exact opposite. I have completely changed myself an my personality for girls who I don't even like! It really stared to bug me when I found a note on the ground passed between two girls in my class saying that I was a bitch and a slut. This really hurt me, especially when I myself had called one of my now, closest friends a bitch. When you guys came to speak at my school, it gave me a chance to apologize for what I did. My friend and I cried our eye's out watching the documentary! It really had a huge impact on me! Thank you Lauren and Molly! You guys are truly inspiring! - City


Anonymous : A girl is coming to my school next year for 8th grade. My friends and I have been told that she's mean to all girls and really nice to all boys, because she's a huge flirt. I don't know how to act toward her, especially since she told one of my friends that she hates her. Since they are just rumors, I'm not sure what to do. I love my friends and don't want to be ruined by this - City

Lauren Bales: I am a 6th grader in Frisco, Texas. I go to Roach Middle School. In 5th grade I was made fun of because I'm slightly overweight. The summer before 6th grade I decided to dye my hair black and wear darker clothing because it makes me look skinnier. Now all my friends call me goth, emo, and ask if i am slitting my wrists. Plus they still call me fat. Y'all are the only people I have told, I hadn't told my mom until 2 weeks ago. Now my mom has decided to move me, my little brother, and herself to a "new-ish" school.... It's "new-ish" because I know most of the kids that go to that school because I went to school with them from kindergarten to 3rd grade, so I know them and they know me. I also know that before I moved away from them we were like family so i know that alot of them wont make fun of me and will stick up for me when I am being made fun of. - City

Anonymous : From third grade on, I was bullied called fat, and weird. I hated my life. I have tried on and off since the age of 9 to kill myself. I even became mean and I am sorry for those girls I was mean too. I wish I had never been so mean. Molly and Lauren came to my school yesterday. I apologized to the three girls I had been the meanest too, they had shot it right back at me. unfortunately they didn't care that I am actually sorry. That I want them to be my best friends again. But I feel better, I know what I did was right. Molly and Lauren I have a new perspective on life now, thank you. You two are my heroes - City


Anonymous : You two young women are inspirational and truly a blessing to those girls who you have touched spiritually. You have saved many lives and I think it takes a strong, willed, determined and warm hearted person to go out and share with communities around the United States about spreading kindness. I am inspired to to and be better. I want to be able to contribute my time as well, to spread the peace and love. I think it is worth the time and energy to promote kindness. It isn't easy being a girl, that is stated many times, but everyone girl is a human being and beautiful in their own ways. My heart goes out to those in need of compassion. Message to the girl society: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. To conclude, thank you Kind Campaign for the time you have given to spread kindness among the world. God Bless. - City


Anonymous : This campaign and organization is so inspirational and amazing and I am so glad that you guys came to our school with the movie. All through middle school I was called dumb and ugly by both guys and girls, and your movie really captures the pain behind it all. My friends and I have been talking about the power of this message and it is already starting to change how I view my relationships with other girls. Thank you so much! - City


anon : in 9th grade i was in this carpool with 3 of my 'friends'. for some reason they just decided that they didnt like me anymore- it was completely random i didnt do anything. for the remainder of the school year I didnt talk at all during the carpool and they made no effort to talk to me. When i did talk they would always find some way to put me down telling me i talked funny or making fun of me somehow. Finally one day I stood up for my self and told them to cut it out- and guess what- they hated me even more! they got so mad at me for standing up for myself but im glad i did because then they knew they couldnt mess with me anymore! The funny thing now is that I am really good friends with 2 out of the three girls that would make fun of me. I guess people change - City


Anonymous : toward the end of 7th grade my "best friend" stopped talking to me for no reason at all. I guess she had found new friends. For a while I felt that I was worth very little. If one of my friends had forgotte me, others would too. My ex-best friend and her new friends looked at me a laughed. I knew they talked about me. But I just didnt know what I did wrong. What I did to make them laugh at me or stare at me. It's been about 2 years. When I think back and realize that it was never about me. She just didn't know how to be a good friend. - City


KK : During 6th grade some horrible things were posted on facebook. People said some of the meanest and most hurtful things about me, to my face, behind my back, and on the internet. I tried committing suicide on several times, and probably still more to come,since the bullying started. But it hasn't stopped. Help!! I thank my best friend for saving my life. If she hadn't, i would not have met M, an angel sent from the heavens. - City


Lakshmi : I was teased for the color of my skin! i hated it! :( Being an Asian is not nice.. please ppl dont be reciast - City


Anonymous : I got teased because i was more mature then the other girls in my grade. They would try to break me and make me freak out. Eventually I tried to dumb myself down and they liked me better. After a while i was so tired of pretending to be someone i wasn’t that i did snap. I regret that year and what happened but it taught be so much about myself and who i am. I just wish i had figured it out without all the pain. Now those girls are addicted to drugs and alcohol, but i don’t laugh. i feel bad. Because they could have done so much better. I know them, and it may sound backwards.. but i wish them the best in life. They taught me more then they know. - City


nahlamfh : My freshman year was really hard on me. I cried my self to sleep almost every night and I found it really hard to fit in. I would hang out with a group of girls in my class, but once we were outside of school we never talked, and I felt like they looked at me as if I was stupid or annoying. I wanted to change myself to what I thought they wanted. To me, they were perfect, and I was just some girl, who didn't really belong in any cliques. I kept everything all bottled up inside, and would just lay in my bed crying, going to school only twice a week most the time. It was hard on me because it didn't seem I was perfect enough, or my personality clashed. It made me want to give up. But to all you girls out there, we just gotta stay strong, and stick together. - City


Kiara C.: I'm in sixth grade at Valley Catholic Elementry School. From the first day of kindergarten, i have been teased and bullied. I've been called things like fat, b****, slut, dumb, anorexic, uguly, trash, stupid, rich, stuck up, liar, and SO many other things. I've been beat up. Alot of the time, I don't want to or am scared to go to school. I can't stand it there. For a long time, it's benn my living h***. Sometimes I get so scared that I get phisically ill. On facebook, someone said they didn't think i was a virgin. I'm stinkin' 12 years old. That same person said she'd marry me next time she saw me. She's photo-shopped so many pictures of me and they were really inappropriate and REALLY hurt my feelings. Eventually it got so bad that I tried to kill myself. It has'nt changed one bit and there are days where I still come home wanting and wishing to be dead and not wake up in the morning. I actually told my mom after shool today that I'd rather be dead. This year has been the worst of them all. 1 in every 100 school days I come home happy. In other words, it's REALLY rare. Even the only friend I have at School, and I'm beggining to question our friendship, how sorry she truely is, and how well I know her. I wish I could be accepted for who I am and only that. What does it take now a days to get a friend?! I want one really bad. My mom always said these two things, "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer," and "friend is like a penny in your pocket." I want that penny. It's all I've EVER wanted. And look where I am now. No friends, wanting to die and only surrounded by judges.Like I said before, I wish someone, ANYONE, could accept me for who I am and only that. - City


Halas : One year in high school, someone doctored a picture of me from a school dance and turned it into an ugly, vulgar image. They emailed it to my parents from an anonymous address, hoping to get me in trouble or humiliate me. They did it. It was hurtful and embarrassing. Luckily, it was clearly photoshopped and my parents and I got the police and the school administration involved. The culprit turned out to be one of my close friends. It's sad how wrong you can be about some girls. Since then, my judge of character has improved and I've learned to be careful with who I trust. Now, I realize how important it is to protect each other and I'm proud to say that nothing like this has happened to me or my friends since. - City


G.A : I was best friends with this year since the third grade, then the 6th grade came around and this girl who become friends with me and my " best friend" this girl started to get closer to my " bff" and pretty much "bought" her friendship with taking her to movies, concerts and other stuff, soon, they became best friends, and they hung out more than I did with my best friend, but she still talked to me, but once the girl finally got what she wanted, she stopped liking me no reason and ignored me and critized and verbally abused for everything I did. The she said horrible, over-exaggerated things about me to my bff and and she started to hate me and ignore me too, she acted like I was pest and everything I did or say was immature and annoying, she acted like I didn't exist or that we were never friends , of course, I was friendly with some other people, but the girl who took my friend said nasty things to them too, and then they didn't like me, and since the end of middle school till freshman year, I had no friends. Still, I don't have many friends because my trust for people was shattered after it happened and I was afraid to talk to people and make new friends, and when I do make new friends, I can't let that girl see, because then she will start talking to them, act friendly towards them, and then bad mouth me to them. I have been through many " mean girl" situations, but this one hit me the most and taught me to have a better judgement of people, a MUCH MUCH better judgement, if only I found it odd that this girl "bought" friendships and kept my distant of her, me and old bff would still be talking today. - City


Brianna : Last year I went out with this guy that I liked. We talked around our friends, texted each other, and just acted like boyfriend and girlfriend. I got too obsessive and my friends starting backing away from me, but I didn't realize it until a month last during the summer. It was around the 4th of July when you are supposed to be having fun with your friends but no, I wasn't on of those girls. My three "best friends for life" (as we called each other) had been talking about me behind my back and decided to ditch me. Now I mean, they didn't answer my phone calls and texts, they didn't talk to me at all and I was hearing stories about how they hated me and the fact that I had ever liked my old boyfriend Teddy. I became very depressed. One of these girls was a close neighbor, so during the summer the three of them who go over to the one girls house and yell and scream having the time of their life, while I sat on my deck for the rest of the summer, (the beginning of July- the end August) crying my eyes out for hours on end because I had no friends. They were the only ones I had and now they were gone. It was now September and I didn't want to go to school. I didn't want to talk to them, be in any classes with them, here stories about them, or even look at them. They were the girls that ruined my life and they were bullies in my eyes.My prayers didn't work. I went into a deep depression and my mom thought I should go to a counselor. My mom was my best friend. She was there with me threw it all. She called to parents of these three girls and begged to know why they were mad and they wouldn't say a word about it. All I wanted was a friend. I cried for 5 months straight (September-January) after school everyday, because all I wanted was a friend. Just someone that would be there for me. Then in the middle of all of this, a neighbor gave the movie "Finding Kind." After watching it with my mom and realizing I wasn't alone, my life changed. In January I found a friend. Her name was Lexi and now we are best friends. She gave me happiness when I was sad. She was like an angel sent from above. I LOVE YOU LEXI NICOLE WITH ALL MY HEART - City

Andrea : I am a high school senior just about to graduate and I just watched the documentary in my English class. I know that girls can be nasty to eachother and I know there is a serious bullying problem in our society. This isn't my sob story, I dont think I am any different from anyone else who has been bullied. This is just my story. I have been bullied since the 4th grade. My mom never really thought anything of it since she was bullied when she was a kid. Even when I would come home in tears because the kids were so mean to me she pretty much just told me to suck it up and deal with it. In the 5th grade my aunt, my hero, came to an end of the year picnic for me at school, she noticed how mean the kids were at school and after the picnic she called the administration. Ever since then she has been my rock, my big supporter. Along with my grandma. Her daughter, another aunt of mine, always was picked on in school, so she knew what I was going through and noticed that nothing had changed in 10-15 years. She hated it when I would come to her house and telling her about all the things the kids would say to me. And she hated sending me home to an uncaring household. But that was just the way it was. The bullying pretty much ended in my Junior year of high school. It had hurt me so badly that it made me like a brick wall. I have a hard time letting anyone in to my life, I have extremely isolated myself. My boyfriend Jeff has had a huge impact on me in the past couple years. He has helped me to grow up. I moved in with my for my senior year of high school. Living with him made me realize how immature, and childish the kids at school were. There has been no verbal bullying, just the looks from the girls that say 1 million words. I would definitely like to become involved in this campaign. I want to help everyone I can. After high school I will be a legal assistant, and someday I would like to be a social worker. I really enjoy helping people. Thank you for letting me tell you my story. - City

Melanie : I have battled depression for a while now, and while I once thought what others thought mattered, I have concluded after a great deal of struggling, that what matters is how you look at yourself. It may be hard at first, I know it is, but eventually you will find friends that care about you for you, and don't judge you. Soon, you will eventually also find that one person who won't judge you ever, and want to spend the rest of your life with him. Just know that one day, all your dreams will come true, and none of those "mean girl" comments will matter. Loyally. - City


Shelby : In the 6th grade I had two "friends." We weren't really all that close but we talked and hung out durign school. Then one day it was like we were never friends. They started making fun of me to my face and told the guy i liked that I stalked HIm. and he belived them! I tried moving on and finding other friends and one girl who i thought was a true frind and who i trusted certian secrets with took them and turned them around to make me sound more like a freak. It hurt a lot that i had no friends and even now that i'm in the 9th grade i'm extreamlly quite. My "best friend" hardley even talks to me during school. ALl i wanted was to fit in. i joined a sport and now my team is my best friend. i feel happy with them and it has really helped me a lot. - City


Invisible : I'm in 6th grade right now. School's about to end and I am so happy! During the beginning of the school year I was going through puberty. I got my period and eventually I started getting pimples. There is this boy named Steven and he makes fun of me all the time. It started when my forhead was covered in pimples so it looked like I had acne. I knew I didnt have ance though because I did research and I knew I didnt have it. I kept telling Steven I didnt have ance and he would always make an excuse for why I DID have it. His friends joined him. They teasted me about having fake hair just because it looks nice and straight. They made fun of what I wore. I love loose clothes and they are all about the expensive brands. I can't afford that so I would do the best I can to buy whatever I could. Weeks went by, Months went by. The teasing and making fun of grew even more. I would get teased a lot than I usually would have. I would cry after school or on the bus. People would stare at me. They called me stupid and worthless. At that time I did feel worthless and stupid. I was really sad. I wouldn't eat dinner anymore. I would sit alone at lunch because everyone would be too busy talking about me. My friend turned against me when she wouldn't do anything to help me. I was always waiting for that day where they would get tired or teasing me and I could finally actually live my life. I wished I was one of those pretty girls and I did my every best way possible to make myself look pretty. Weather it was wearing makeup to tight clothes to expensive brands. I felt like giving up. I did. I hope I have a better future ahead of me and one day just be successful and look back at them and laugh. I wished I could do that. I just wish... I hope middle school isnt bad like I imagine it will be. I only have 2 friends and I am grateful I even have friends right now. God Bless - City

Tricia : I wasn't bullied in school. I was called a boy once because of my short hair, but my story is more recent. I am 26 years old and have been out of school for quite some time. I thought that since I was out of school that the "high school girl drama" was behind me. I realized after watching the documentary that I was completely wrong. An incident occurred only earlier this month; to which I didn't think was bullying but now I have realized it is. I was the only one out of my group of friends (good friends I had had for a long time) that was not invited to a birthday party. It really hurt me because I didn't know why I wasn't invited. I spoke with some friends that were invited and they advised me to talk to the friend that organized the party. I didn't want to because I didn't want a pity invite. I wanted to go because I was wanted there. I guess word had made it's way around because I was invited to the party only a few hours before it was to start. Once I got there everything was fine and there wasn't any awkwardness. The next Monday morning I came into work (my boss is one of the friends) and checked my boss's email as I usually do. I found an email from my sister to my boss about the party. Naturally I was intrigued and I read the email. In the email my sister simply stated "Long story, I didn't invite Tricia." This statement hurt me more than anything I ever experienced in school. This is my sister talking about me behind my back! She was my best friend; we did almost everything together, I helped raise her sons when she was a single mother, I paid her bills, I found her a job and this was the repayment? I know that in the end she will fight to the death for me and protect me from any harm, I think in this case she just got caught up in what was going on. It was easier for her to stick with her friends than it was to stick by her sister. I don't blame her for that, it happens to the best of us. I haven't told her or my boss that I found the email. I don't know when or if I will confront her. I know I won't heal until I do but I don't think she realizes how much that would hurt me if I found it; or how much she is hurting me by talking about me behind my back. My "friends" (for whatever reason) know that they are excluding me but I don't think they know the negative effect it's having on me. I think if they did know, they wouldn't do it. - City


TKO : I like to think that I was a good person in school. I don't ever remember bullying or taking part in a bullying session. I did make snide comments with my friends which in retrospect was not appropriate. I was nice to all those that did get bullied but I also didn't stick up for them when they got bullied because I was afraid they would start to bully me. I didn't always fit in for one reason or another so I skimmed by by not raising a ruckus. I now regret not standing up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves. It's easier to retreat than it is to take a stand but for the person being bullied it could mean all the difference. - City


Amber : You said that I had herpes all over facebook. You made fun of me and wouldnt even do it to my face but behind a keyboard, where I wasnt able to defend myself.Always all I wanted was for you to be my friend but you never liked me. Always I wanted you to like me but you would tell people SHES to happy thats so fake. You made my Senior year of highschool suck. Instead of having fond memories of the Past I will not have memories to share of that glorious Senior Year, because you helped destroy it. Ten years from now when I get the Invitation of my Highschool reunion will I want to come back I won't, because I will see you and all the others that teared me down. - City


Adrienne : I started reading these stories on the Truth Wall, right? The fifth one that came up kind of reminded me of myself. I started my period in 6th grade. I started getting acne (coincidentally, my forehead was the worst area!) but instead of someone in my own class making fun of me, a 3rd grader made fun of me! She called me "acne-face" when I went to the elementary school to volunteer. I tried covering it with make-up but it only made it worse! I always felt disgusted with my face and it seemed no cleanser would work. No boys ever liked me. I had two main best friends but my house burnt down so I ended up having to live at my grandma's house thirty minutes away so I barely hung out with them outside school. My hair randomly got curly in 6th grade but all throughout middle school, I only wished for it be straight and pretty (probably like your's). And for my clothes, I couldn't afford name-brands either! My parents were struggling so I had to buy clothes with my own money. I would waste my money at PacSun and buy $20 shirts whenever I had just enough money. Tight jeans were just beginning to get into style so I would try my best to find them anywhere I could regardless of the price just so I could "fit-in". Here's the catch, it came to the point I couldn't afford jeans one day and I felt like I needed another pair of skinny jeans so I decided to sew my jeans to be skinnier. Even though they weren't the best looking, I learned something about myself that would benefit me the rest of my life; it's just as easy to create my own style as it is to waste my money. Throughout middle school I sewed my own jeans to make them skinnier and by the time high school came, I moved up a level; I started making my own shirts. I stopped caring what others though about my style. I was an individual who deserved to stand out and by creating my own shirt designs I did just that. I would buy cheap shirts from Walmart, cut up old shirts, come up with a design, and sew it on the new, cheap shirts. Perhaps you don't think you have talent for creating your own designs on shirts... just give it a try! If it doesn't work out go to a thrift store. Tops costing up to $4 is paradise! I have just graduated a year early from high school (I was too impatient to stick with the same judgmental people another year) and, sure, I have changed but not too much. I'm used to my period and open about it (hello, every girl goes through it!). My face naturally started clearing up once I stopped stressing for years over it but I still do have my "bad" days. I stopped making excuses. I accepted my curly hair and now people who always told me to straighten my hair find themselves jealous of my curls! I never sat in a big group at lunch so I mean, that stayed the same but I really couldn't care less. I still make some of my shirts and I've never bought a pair of shorts... I've only cut old jeans and that's it. The expensive brands are too cliche anyway. ;) I don't know you but let me tell you "The Secret": just keep positive thoughts in your head and ONLY positive thoughts and the day will come when you will not laugh at the people who made your life seem miserable but you will laugh at yourself for allowing them. Trust me... I look back at my past and smile to where it has taken me. Your day will come too, I promise. - City


Adrienne : I started reading these stories on the Truth Wall, right? The fifth one that came up kind of reminded me of myself. I started my period in 6th grade.

Anonymous : Special request to all you kids returning to school in the next few days: If you see someone who is struggling to make friends or being bullied because he/she doesn't have many friends or because they are shy o.r not as pretty or not dressed in the most "in" clothes -PLEASE step up. Say hi or at least smile at them in the hallway. You never know what that person might be facing outside of school. Your kindness might just make a BIG difference in someone's life! PLEASE REPOST FOR OUR CHILDREN - City


Macayla: I'm going into 7th grade and I'm going to a new school because last year was so hard on me at mountain veiw.I had two friends named naomi and michaela. Then one day they decided to leave me and not talk to me. The year went on for a few weeks and then naomi got suspended for no reason. after she left michaela would pick on me so I would try my best to act sick so I wouldnt have to go to shool but mom and dad would find out that I wasnt sick and I would have to go to shool. By the time christmas break came I was begging my parents to send me to a different shool.they didnt listen until the last few weeks of shool. So I finished off the year. - City


Anonymous: I was once best friends with a girl and we were like sisters. I told her everything and one day we stopped being friends. After that she started harassing me. Texting me threats that made me cry. Then she started dating the guy who I had liked for such a long time, just so she could prove to me that she could beat me at something. I'll never forget the pain she put me through, and it has permanently affected my trust in people. - City


Robin: When I was in 7th grade my homeroom elected me homeroom sweetheart as a joke. At first I didn't realize it, but it didn't take long. I was never one of the popular girls, and the boys and girls were all mean all the way around. I didn't have nice clothes and I lived in a crappy apartment near the school instead of in a nice house. I didn't know how to take care of myself then, often having messed up hair or mud or something on my clothes. Find those girls like me and help them out. Be kind. - City


Anonymous: There are a group of women in my town who have decided that I am not worthy to socialize in their circle. They don't like me. I don't know why. I can handle this, but what is worse is that their boys are mean to my son. They exclude him, call him names, and even encourage other boys to pick on him. They don't invite him for playdates or parties and they just make his time at school very lonely. I hope that this campaign will help to spread kindness. I'm surely going to try to keep being kind even when others are not kind to me. - City


Kate: When I was in Jr. High School, the older sister of a girl I knew thought I was spreading rumors about her sis. She cornered me one day when I was getting a drink of water and said I better not show my face out in the halls of our school or else I'd be sorry. For the rest of that year, I was scared to walk from class to class or even go to the bathroom alone. And it was all for nothing but a silly rumor that I didn't even start. - City


Sarah: I was bullied in the small private middle school I went to, for being one of the "scholarship kids". My parents couldn't pay for the school, but my scores were high enough to get in anyway. We always had second-hand uniforms, and it showed no matter how we tried to mend or spruce them up. Then I developed early, and was called everything from fat to slutty because my blouses wouldn't button properly. I wish the school had done more to stop them...I wish my parents had stood up for me more. When my own kids had bully issues last year, I made sure to stand up for them, and keep fighting for them until the problems were addressed. You can't stop bullies from existing in school - but you can be the one to support the bullied, and help them to stand up for themselves as well! - City


Elizabeth: I guess I never really thought about how I was treated until seeing these video clips and realizing that I was bullied. Yeah, I didn't get pushed around and no one cursed at my face but I think it's the silence and the rumors and the assumptions that are the hardest to get over. I was a very quiet girl, hard to get to know all through grade school and into college. Thankfully I had two or three close friends who understood me so I had a support system. In college, distance separated me from most of those friend but I joined a music fraternity and began forging bonds that I felt were growing into true friendships. About halfway through college my roommate, out of nowhere, blew up at me about being stuck up and full of myself, acting like I was better than everyone else. I was completely floored and had no idea where it was coming from. It was as though my introverted personality paired with my intelligence was suddenly being perceived in an extremely negative way. She apparently got several girls on her side and suddenly I was an outsider in a group that only a short while before I felt so at home in. How does this happen? Why does it happen? And how in the world is it that I feel a sense that it was my fault, that they are right? Even now as I try to defend myself I feel like I just come off as the whiny victim who probably brought it on herself. The difference is that I know the truth and I thank God that I have a faith and a strong upbringing that supports me when I declare that they are WRONG - I am smart and beautiful and caring and encouraging and nothing they can do or say will ever change that. Thank you Mom, thank you Jonna and Debbie and Heather, and thank you God for getting me through those roughest years. I know I still have self-confidence issues. I still play dumb on occasion because I feel like I have to just to survive, to be liked, to not be the smartest kid in the class again because that place is very, very, lonely. I hope that this documentary and this movement continue to inspire people and prevent what happened to all of us from happening to our daughters. - City


Camille: In the eighth grade, I went through the hardest time I ever had to go through. I was best friends with a girl named Jenna, and I trusted her with everything about me and told her who I liked and what I thought about the people I didnt like. Then at a fair that year, she started calling me mean names like a slut or a whore. and it hurt me, so bad. Then all of the sudden none of my friends wanted to talk to me anymore. I couldnt understand why because some I never talked bad about at all. Then one day i was talking to my boyfriend on Facebook and my chat boxes kept closing and I couldnt understand why. I called Jenna some things I shouldn't have and regret today, but I did it. I later found out a friend I trusted with my Facebook password went on my accout while I was on it, and was reading everything I was saying. She was telling Jenna, too. The next day Jenna called me out in front of everybody. I wanted to go cry but I stood Strong with my head high. I didnt go on facebook for awhile after that, too affraid I might say something wrong. But then I found out all the girls on my volleyball team and even in my grade were reading all my personal e-mails. They found out all the things I had said about them, what I would say to others, and lots of stuff I never should have said. Everyone ignored me when I talked to them in school and I was always walking by myself. I heard the rumors going around the school and my boyfriend dumped me eventually, too embarrised to be with me. I wanted to die. It was the worst thing I had ever been through, and I even got death threats. One girl called me "dead man walking" and I was scared. I eventually made new friends with the girls my little popular group was too cool for, and now I live a better life. Im in a new high school and loving life. Jenna and I dont talk anymore, but sometimes I think its for the better. - City

Anonymous: Bullying wasn't always a huge factor in my life. I had a best friend, and a couple other really nice group of friends for most of elementary school. Fourth grade, my class was doing some group project, where you had to send a document to someone in your group's email. My best friend was in my group, and was the one who sent the document to her email. She just told me it was fine to go ahead on her email to send the document to myself. (We already knew each other's passwords on our emails from making them a long time ago together) So once I was home and on the computer, I logged into her email, and sent the document to myself. Then something caught my eye. And email in her inbox marked with my name on it, curious I click on it. Nasty insults about how I'm a spoiled brat just cause my dad died, and how nobody's really my friend. I scroll through the conversation, and see all my friends bashing about me in a campaign forward to hate me, started by my best friend. I pretend I didn't see it, log out of her email, and ignore it for a few days, totally in denial that it even happend at all. Maybe I was invisible to it all at first up until that point because of me and my best friend's past as really good friends together, but the few days that followed, I noticed how my best friend un-noticably tried to exclude me from everything with our group, and lot of eye rolls coming from everybody when I tried to add to a conversation. I finally got the message that these people really won't my friends and realized how real the email forward was, so I consulted help from my mother who told me to just stay strong, back myself out of it before it got nasty, and try and find new friends to hang out with. I never confronted any of them, never told them I knew about what the said, I just slowly excluded myself from them, thinking that having no friends was better then having mean friends that didn't care about you. Sure the next year was hard, and then entering middle school was even harder, but I felt proud of myself for pulling myself out of the drama before it got much worse. My "friends" in elementary school, really showed how much of a coward they are for not saying those things to my face, and instead taking it out in emailing back and forth between them all. I was upset of course, but I only got more confident as I've grown past them all. - City

Cassie: im sorry for all those mean words i called you behind your back. everything that i did to you, without you even knowing. i said things out of anger, because we have had so much drama since middle school. i felt like we could never get along, & i felt like it would all just go away if i just talked about you, i look back at it now, & think why would i do that? it solves nothing. it really doesnt. you may say things that make me mad, but instead next time i will just talk to you face to face, instead of behing your back. i know were some what cool now, but knowing i did all that, just hurts me as a person, i hope you can forgive me for all the wrong i did. - Dear Rache

The year went on for a few weeks and then naomi got suspended for no reason. after she left michaela would pick on me so I would try my best to act sick so I wouldnt have to go to shool but mom and dad would find out that I wasnt sick and I would have to go to shool. By the time christmas break came I was begging my parents to send me to a different shool.they didnt listen until the last few weeks of shool. So I finished off the year. - Abel

Amethyst: My truth is that I have been a bully, but I stopped. A year later, I started being bullied. My friends started leaving, but I made some new ones. My truth is that it benefits neither side, and I know it from experience. I have never been the "prettiest" girl or anything like that, but I'm MYSELF. Most my life, people have alienated me. People came and people went, and they always made me feel like there was something WRONG with me. The truth is I'm SICK of it. I never once acted like somebody I wasn't (I hardly even wear makeup), but now I KNOW that it's 100% okay to be how I am. I can still have my days, but I always try to make ammends in the end. The truth is, I am me. -


mary jade thompson: im going to be kind to everyone, including my self. -


Natalie.D (bad at spelling): i am in grade 6. I was feeling really fat and ugly one day and both my mom and i were in a bad mood. She (my mom) accidently, in a way called me fat and said that if i stopped eating crapp (junk food) i would get skinny! I coulden't help not eating crapp! i felt even worse about myself!!! So i decided to stop eating. Not just crapp but everything because i coulden't live with my weight! My sister eventuly found out and tried to get me to start eating. She said that my weight was healthy for my age. she told me i was just commparing myself to all of the girls i know (they are all skinny!) i did not want to hurt myself any more but still wanted to be as skinny as barbie. when i told her this she picked up her computer and showed me a picture of a regular woman with lines on her indicating what she would look like as a barbie. and If Barbie were a real woman, her head would be the same circumference as her waist, meaning she’d have room for only half a liver and a few inches of intestines, (as opposed to the usual 26 feet). The result: chronic diarrhea and death from malabsorption & malnutrition. To look like Barbie proportionally, a healthy woman would need to add 61 cm to her height, subtract 15 cm from her waist, add 13 cm to her chest, and 8 cm to her neck length. Because Barbie’s neck is twice as long as the average human’s, it would be impossible for her to hold up her head. Her legs are 50 percent longer than her arms, (the average woman’s legs are only 20 percent longer than her arms). She’d also have to walk on all fours (her feet are so disproportionately small, her chest would pull her forward onto her toes). she showed me that i was not fat and that i should not be sad about my weight. Besides! i might not be the skinnyest in my class but i am the fastest! >_ -


aliya nejara: HI,I have my own story it all started in a daycare every time in the morning i got up at 6 am did my routine and went off to my doctor every morning and scince i didnt eat my mom would buy me a dounot and usualy i came to my daycare in the morning and my teacher ask don; you want to eat your dounot and i said no because my fiends said i am a loser and they hit me and when we played my friends came and protected me -


Rebecca Harder: I am 22 years old. I haven't been in high school for about 4 years now, but I still remember the gossip and the drama, and drama still happens to me and my friends, as it probably always will. I've tried to be drama free and let things go, or I have tried to give people benefit of the doubt, but sometimes things/life/school/etc. get really rough and I have lashed out at people that I really care about. It's just hard to hold in all the fear and anxiety and pressure sometimes. I try to be kind all the time, but the truth is, I am not very kind to myself at all. I put myself down all the time, over-criticize every mistake, kick myself for not being perfect. I have OCD and depression, and I have contemplated suicide many times. I have also done some cutting. I just want to say, try to be kind to others, but also try to be kind to yourself, and don't be afraid to talk/vent to someone when life seems to be too much. -


Paige Cartwright : 1 day a girl kicked me out of her girls only club. Just because i talked to a boy! I was too scard 2 tell her she was so mean it was scary! Really she never Relished I never cared about her -


Arielle Cohen: I would never say any girl was out right mean or vicious to me like many girls have experienced. It was more behind my back. I also feel that when you are girl starting at a new school its hard to make friends. Grils are territorial and do not like opening open to new girls that enter into that world. I don't understand why, especially after I joined a sorority. Every sorority I went to during recruitment opened up to me and they had never met me before. Why couldn't girls in high school do the same? -


feather: i sad becaues my bothers -


Britany: A few days ago, I attended the screening of the Finding Kind documentary in Westminster, Maryland and I was truly moved. I only attended the screening because it was for an assignment for one of my classes at McDaniel College; honestly, I wasn't even sure what the documentary was about. I never expected to be confronted with a story that I have locked away deep within my heart for the past two years. Currently, I am a senior at McDaniel College. Two years ago I was an innocent little sophomore starting my fall semester and really wanting to make some new friends as I was coping with a recent break up. I was living on a "sorority floor" in a dorm and had gotten to know some of the girls from the sorority over the first month or so of the semester. There was another girl on the floor that was not officially a "sister" yet; we decided to go through our campus' "sorority recruitment" process, in hopes of joining the sorority that we were already living with. [In case you're unfamiliar with the "recruitment" process, here's a little background: in order to pledge for a sorority, our campus asks that you get to know all of the sororities on campus before choosing which one you think suits you best. There are three days of "rounds". They start early in the evening and basically the way it works is all of the "potentials" who signed up for recruitment are divided into small groups and they go around and visit each of the sororities. Each round has a different theme and the finale event is "Bid Day" which is when you either get invited ("offered a bid") to a sorority or you do not.] As it turns out, the friend that I had signed up for recruitment with and I were not in the same group. Instead, I was with a bunch of girls that I knew of—heard of, seen around, knew about—for the entire recruitment process. The reason why I knew of them was not just because we were a small campus; it was also because they were the "popular" girls in our class. They always knew where the parties where, everyone knew their names, they were just the girls to watch for our class. Much to my surprise, throughout the recruitment process I had become quite close with those girls. I couldn't believe that girls like that actually liked a girl like me. I had never felt so good about myself. I became really confident and excited; that new-found personality only grew when I was offered a bid into the "Popular Sorority". This sorority was NOT the sorority that I had originally planned on joining because I didn't think there was any way I would ever get offered a bid, but surely enough I did. Additionally I was offered a bid from the sorority that I was living with. Overwhelmed and even blinded by the "Phi Sig Sparkle" I chose to pledge with the sorority that I never thought I stood a chance with: Phi Sigma Sigma. I didn't consider the fact that my friend whom I had signed up for recruitment with (Megan) was not pledging Phi Sig; she decided to join the sorority that we were living with.That was when she and I went our separate ways and my life changed…forever. Bid Day was such a blur. When they called my name and announced me as a Phi Sig. for the first time I was ecstatic. I ran down to the 40 beautiful girls who seemed so incredibly excited about having me be a part of their life. I had never felt so accepted. Along with me were those girls that I went through recruitment with, those "popular" girls that I couldn't believe liked me. We rushed down to the gazebo like a herd of wild animals surrounded by our new Sisters screaming their songs at the top of their lungs. As we entered the gazebo, the "pledges" crowded close together in the center and all of the Sisters stood on the benches and piled in to the jam-packed McDaniel landmark. Suddenly the content of their songs shifted from the sweet little "I am stuck on Phi Sig, 'cuz Phi Sig's stuck on me" to incredibly vulgar, demeaning, explicit songs like "So fuck me, fuck me, fuck me, who the fuck are me? We are Phi Sigma Sigma, the best sorority!" Unsure of how to react I looked at my fellow pledges. Sure, they looked overwhelmed, but in a good way. I felt down right uncomfortable. I didn't talk like that and I wondered would I really be singing those same songs in just a few weeks? That day that I joined Phi Sig was the day that my entire life began to change. Things that I used to feel so strongly against, I began partaking in quite regularly. Case in point, alcohol consumption. All throughout high school and even freshman year I was able to abstain from alcohol, for the most part. I had definitely never been intoxicated and I even criticized my dad quite regularly for drinking so much. To this day, I don't know how exactly I got so out of control. I became obsessed with the idea of fitting in. I wanted everyone to believe that Phi Sig was where I belonged. I drank more and more as the months went on. I was the girl that became the "embarrassment" at parties. Yet, that small group of girls that I pledged with stuck by my side. They would make excuses for me and always be ready to party with me again the next night. Before I knew it, I was spending a significant amount of time drinking alone, in the morning, during class, even in the shower. I went from drinking beer and mixed drinks to drinking hard liquor straight. Vodka in a water bottle seemed to fool everyone—professors, police, and my Sisters. No one knew this secret that I was harboring. No one knew that my immense need to be one of them had reached new levels: I had become an alcoholic. A real, scary, deteriorating alcoholic. At the end of my sophomore year, there was one fateful night that seemed to be the turning point for everyone. In one of my drunken rages, I lost it. To this day, I do not know the details of what happened because I was beyond the point of a blackout. All I know is the next day, no one would talk to me, look at me, or even listen to me. Over the summer and the following fall I had become incredibly depressed. Even though I was finally living with my sorority, I spent most of my time alone, in my room, drinking my troubles away. In October, I took a leave of absence. My depression had gotten to the point where I couldn't get out of bed, go to class, go to work, or function at all. My parents and my doctor told me that I needed to take some time off (despite the fact that they didn't even know about my drinking problem). During my recovery period, I experienced terrible withdrawal. The depression got worse. I left rather abruptly from school—didn't say bye to anyone—and the thing that was killing me the most was that no one had reached out to me. They saw that my room was completely abandoned, empty, and yet no one cared enough to ask me if I was okay. I felt so alone. I realized that I was living in a fantasy world the entire time that I was a Phi Sig. Could it really be possible that I was missing something? Were we really not the greatest of friends in the first place? It seemed like they felt this way about me all along, before our big fight, and now they finally had an excuse to act on their feelings. After an entire month had passed without hearing from a single person from school, I made a terrible decision. I decided that I would rather not live at all than have to live alone. In mid-November of 2010, I overdosed. I swallowed about 60 Lithium tablets—one of the most toxic prescription medications on the market. I was rushed to the hospital where I couldn't stop throwing up. I was dizzy and falling in and out of consciousness. In order to save my life, I had a tube inserted through my nose and down my throat that sucked all of the toxic fluid out of my stomach and was exchanged for a cleansing fluid that was going to restore my body, I was in the Intensive Care Unit for three days. Each day I had to have dialysis because I had done such terrible damage to my kidneys. I spent two weeks in the psychiatric unit (including Thanksgiving) where I recovered from everything. Upon discharge, I still hadn't heard from anyone in my sorority. They didn't even know that I had literally just dodged death because of everything that had happened between us. Yet, I would go on Facebook and see pictures of them at parties and formals and going on like life had never been better. About a month later I received a phone call from our sorority president asking me if I knew if I was going to be returning back to McDaniel the following semester or not. Unsure if I was ready or not, my doctor was not yet ready to make that decision. Unable to give a definite answer, the president gave me two options: 1.) I pay "dues" (the national fee for being in the sorority) and if I return it's paid, and if not, I get no refund or 2.) I don't pay and if I return I would not be allowed to so affiliated with the sorority. Suddenly everything seemed so clear. I realized that for the duration of this conversation, she didn't ask ONCE "By the way, how are you?". No. She didn't care. She cared about paying my dues. And it became so obvious that everyone else probably felt the same. From a distance, it looked like I had fallen off the face of the earth and no one cared. At that exact moment of clarity, I disaffiliated from the sorority. Upon returning the following semester no one knew how to treat me. Most of them ignored my existence entirely, and those who didn't right away, have grown to completely ignore me. When they're not ignoring me, they're whispering, laughing, gossiping, about what happened to the lost Phi Sig. Two years later I have never been happier, healthier, or more successful. I keep busy and don't let interactions with my ex-sisters get the best of me. I have really grown up in a short amount of time. I have seen the ugly side of Girl World and I almost died because of it. Though my entire experience was incredibly painful and even life threatening, I don't regret it at all. I have learned so much about myself and about people in general because of my experience. That was a time of true confusion for me. I had no idea who I was and I was so fixated on being who I thought everyone wanted me to be. Now, I am able to look in the mirror and be happy and proud of who I am. I have so much dignity just by knowing that I am no longer part of the group of girls who walk around campus calling themselves whores and sluts. I have learned that I am better than that. I can only hope that they can see that they are too. -


Mickey: I'm not sorry for what I did do, but for what I didn't. I didn't stand up for either of you when that group was making fun of you behind your back. From now on, I will. -

Lissie: I was harassed on the school bus to such a degree that I refused to ride the school bus. My mom had to drive me to school every day because I would have a panic attack if I had to ride the bus. -


Meagan: I've always been the new girl in school. Being a child of divorced parents and accustomed to arguing and fighting, I didn't really know how to be nice or gentle or how to make friends. In elementary school I got by just being this bossy girl, but inside I hated what I was doing to my friends. I just didn't have anywhere to turn and I didn't know what to do. I went through a lot at home, so it kind of forced me to become very mature at a young age and keep things bottled up; to express myself in ways that weren't always the best. I moved on from that, eventually, but when I transferred to public school, I was so lost. People talked about me, laughed at me, and assumed things about me that ruined my reputation. I had some friends, but I ate lunch alone and came home crying because the things people were saying destroyed me inside. I've been able to recover and cope very well since that year, but now I find myself very insecure. I look in the mirror and hate what I see. Every other girl seems prettier or better than me, and I start to hate everything about myself. There still isn't anyone I can go to, so I try to deal with it internally. I just wish that all the rumors and drama weren't making everything worse. -


Emily Wachter: Dear old me, I no longer feel alone, sad, mad, stressed out, or nervous. I no longer feel the need to harm myself. Instead, I will write, draw, and make music. I have learned that I’m not alone and there are many people out there like me. I have learned that I don’t need to change or depend on guys for everything. Goodbye to my life of pain and sorrow. To everyone who has ever hurt me, physically or mentally, even though it hurt me at the time, you have made me a strong and a mature person. Goodbye anger. I now know when I get angry to walk away and count to ten and then confront whoever or whatever I have a problem with. Goodbye depression. You will no longer make me feel sad, angry, worried, or fearful. You no longer hold me back. You no longer have my confidence. You no longer keep me away from God and Christ. You no longer keep me up at night. You no longer have control over any aspect of my life. Goodbye depression and anger; you’re gone. Sincerely, New me -


Sydney: I have been bullied by other girls on how i am fat, how i wear my shirts to low, how big my nose is, how ugly i am. i go home and try to stay strong, but it hurts a lot. i wish girls werent so mean to eachother, and i wanna be able to walk down the halls at school without people talking about me. -


Louisa: In 5th grade I was bullied. In my class, I had two of my best friends and we would do everything together, always. One day though, they went to the office to get something for our teacher and I decided to look through one of their desks because she had a big bag in it. I looked in the plastic bag and I saw tons and tons of sticky notes. I started to read them and i soon realized that they were all about me. How stupid I was, how ugly I looked one day, how my hair is always frizzy. I couldn't take it, I just started bawling in the middle of class and ran to the bathroom. These two girls were my best friends and I just felt so betrayed and alone. The rest of the year in that class they isolated me, I was never good enough for them. It made me feel like it was my fault too. They blamed me for the notes they wrote. Its been about 4 years since this incident and I am friends with the girls. We're not as close as we were but we are on speaking terms. They have apologized and it is better.. My message to girls who are being bullied is to stay strong because it all eventually comes to an end. -


Khristine: In Middle school i was always picked on. In the 7th grade i was picked on by these group of girls who made fun of how I dressed and my weight. In the 8th grade is when it this girl drew the line on bullying. i didn't know her at all. She just started throwing stuff at me in lunch and always taunted me if i ever stood up to her. She went to far when she threw milk at me. I decided to throw it back at her. She didn't like it so her and the whole table got up with her and all walked up to my face saying stuff like what you gonna do or i know you didn't just do that! There was no point for them all to get like that and i didn't know them all. I want to just hit her in the face but there was this school policy that if you started a fight you didn't graduate so luckily the bell rang and i ran out of there holding in my tears. I didn't realize i had ran past my best friends. I just ran and ran to my next class. I had the best of friends that year so if it had not been for them that day keeping me calm and saying that to just ignore the girl that she's not important for me to mess with i would have been miserable the rest of the school year. I'm glad i told my parents. The girl never messed with me the rest of the school year. i feel joyful for having the best friends anyone could ever have. without them where would i be right now? The Kind Campaign is the best. I just wish they were hear when i needed them. Right now you guys are helping me survive my Junior Year! -


Beth: When I was younger, I was bullied. I hated it. Most of kids bullied me because I was in Special Education or because I was a new kid at school. I never understood why they would pick on me, but it hurt. The best thing I had with me, was the truth. Those bullies may have been bullied themselves. -

Highland High school is it. when someone is being mean to mean i usury have nothing to say. and when i see a girl picking on ather girl you go try to be the goodguy but you end up the bad guy. i think your words are awesome. thats why you should come to my school to spread that "cool is kind" and it is. -

omayris: Lots of people bully me just because I have acne.They always come and tell me things like,"Why do you have alot of acne?" or "You have alot of pimples." But what hurts the most is when people say,"Have you tried proactiv?" It really hurts to hear those I try to act like I am not hurt but inside it truely hurts. -


omayris: i am sorry to all my friends i get jealous of or have arguments with oh and also i am sorry for threatning -


Courtney: I was bullied mostly in middle school, always being on the outside and never in the "in crowd". I tried my hardest to not let it affect me and stay strong, but it was not easy. I have always felt as if I have never had that one good friend until high school. I lost that friend to suicide putting me in a place where I felt even more alone. For the rest of high school I never found that friend again and I went through so many friends. I finally found one good friend again in College and pulling through everything in middle school and high school got me to where I am and I am very grateful now. -


alana: I feel like nobody likes me -

Julia: I have been bullied this entire school year. Three girls in my school have succeeded in turning most of the school against me and two of my friends. I have had someone dump a jumbo pixie stick in my book-bag. The sticky sugar was all over my books and homework assignments. These girls also used an English assignment to write nasty stories about me and my friends. When we had dances at school the bullies instructed the boys in our school not to dance with me and my friends. The girls accuse me and my friends of things we didn't do. Finally, I brought a diary to school and one of the bullies brought it home and showed her mother. I didn't write anything threatening in the book, but the bullies tried to get me kicked out of school. They went as far as calling the police on me. I have been asked to get counseling for depression. I have been out of school for one week. I am not suspended, but the school principal is getting a lot of pressure from the bullies parents not to have me return. When my parents asked the school when I can return to school the principal suggested that I not return to school. I have done nothing wrong, but I am being treated very meanly. I told my mom I was never depressed, but since I have been targeted by these girls I feel awful. -


Avery: These two girls constantly made fun of me, and called me rude names. To my face, they were nice, but behind my back, they'd spread rumors and try to destroy me. When I had surgery, it was crucial for me not to get hit, and these girls threw basketballs at my operated area on purpose, pretending it was an accident. Eventually, I had enough. I confronted them and told them how I didn't appreciate what they were doing. I told them to cut it out, because I wasn't afraid and I didn't care what they said. Sure, we aren't friends..but I stood up for myself, and now they do not dare bother me anymore. -

Megan: In the 4th and 5th grade I was literally the biggest bitch to people because I finally became popular, if that makes sense. During the time, being popular was so important and it was everything a girl at my school would want to be. I started just being so mean to people I didn't even realize how bad things got. I just wish I could take back those years and say sorry to everyone whose feelings I hurt. -


Amanda DeVaul: I lie to all of my friends about my weight because i dont want them to laugh at me -


Katie M.: Hi my name is Katie. I am 14 years old and this is my story... In the 7th grade my dad had a motorcycle crash. He was hit by a truck and he almost died. I cried and I did something really stupid. I had always known people who cut themselves and I saw people on tv that did it. I thought it might help me. I cut the upper part of my right arm. No one knew about it, and it kind of helped me focus on something else that really hurt me. You know, physical pain rather than internal pain. I didn't cut again until the beginning of 8th grade. My two best friends randomly turned on me. They gained up on me and were texting me really rude thing. I cried for hours. At lunch they started whispering about me and it really hurt. I can't remember exactly what I was thinking but I immediately grabbed my pizza box in front of me and ripped a piece off and began slicing my right wrist up. Then I ran into the bathroom and made myself throw up. I started to really judge myself and I thought I was really fat, so I stopped eating, and I lost about 30 pounds over 1 month. I was really unhealthily skinny and it was gross. It made me feel way worse knowing that I was so underweight, so I started eating again and the girls and I worked it all out. Around January, my best friend got upset over a guy. She knew some girls from my school that cut. And so she decided she would too. She shredded her wrists up and I cried for her. Everyone blamed it on me because the guy liked me and not her, so I cut. I cut my right wrist up really badly and I carved, "LUV", "P", and "T" into my arm. (LUV because I was having relationship problems, P because that was the first letter of my boyfriends name, and T because Taylor was the girl that cut herself really badly and she even tried to commit suicide but I called her mom before she did anything) Eventually my mom found out and she was really upset. She told me I needed to stop and I needed to get help. But the thing was, I couldn't just stop. I liked cutting. It helped me be calm and to be honest, it didn't hurt at all. I got a therapist and I lie to her face and my moms. I have cut again because of drama and because of my mom and dad. At one point, I had this boy, who I was dating, call me a bitch, slut, and whore. I was so hurt because I thought he loved me and I thought that he was supposed to be the person that made me feel good about myself. But all he did was hurt me. Now he won't even talk to me. I cut again because of it. And it bled out every where; on my sheets, on my clothes, and on a rag. My cuts are all over my body; 1 on my left thigh, 2 on my left calve, 6 and a heart on my right thigh, 1 on my right hip, 3 on my left hip, 5 on my right wrist, 1 on my right bicep, 30 on my left wrist, 7 on my left arm, and 4 on my left bicep. You do the math... It's a lot and I can't wear shorts or short sleeves without being afraid of being judged. I am scared of everyone now and I can't trust anyone except my very best friend in the whole entire world, Hannah. Sometimes I think that she is the only person in the world that actually cares about me... I am slowly getting better and I'm cutting less and less. Many people are praying for me and it really helps me with my fight to completely stop cutting. -


Natalie Peterson: The truth is, I hang out with more guys than girls because girls CAN be catty and mean. I was the quiet and shy girl from Elementary school to High school. But I'm really not quiet. I love being kind to others, and I wish girls could see that I would love to be their friends and have girl talk and hang out. But I also wish that girls didn't feel like they have to be rude and catty to others. We are all trying to survive and we all need friends. -


Riya M.: I have a friend, who I thought she was my friend, but secretly she was bullying my best friend. She had revenge plans. I never noticed, but my best friend was really hurt. I apologized for it and stood up for me when I needed help. -


Katherine: My story began in elementary school when I became the "punching bag" in 2nd grade. Somehow I managed to piss off the school bully (a female, by the way) whom everyone, boys and girls, were afraid of. Needless to say, for 7 years I was constantly picked on, called names (I was chubby for a few years - never mind that the bully was also chubby - no one picked on her) pushed in the hallways, tripped, and became the social outcast. When new kids moved to the school, I tried to befriend them, since I had no other friends. We would hang out for a while, and then the rumors started about my social status in the school and I was alone again. It was devastated and lonely the majority of my young life. By the time junior high came around, I had a (very) small group of friends and eventually grew into my weight but the tormenting continued. If I wasn't picked on about the weight, it was about my nose, my clothes, my chest, my hair, that I'm stupid, that I was ugly that I had glasses, etc, etc. It wasn't until I moved across the country and started over in high school that things changed - while I wasn't in the "popular" crowd, I had a group of friends, dated some (including the captain of the football team), and aside from the occasional snide comment and bitchiness that seems to happen between "friends", was much happier. However, I feel that my early experiences negatively influenced my life. I have issues maintaining friendships with women (I do not and have not had a best friend since 8th grade) and my self confidence, from years of negative reinforcement in my early years, is shot. By the way, all of this began 37 years ago. I now have a daughter in 4th grade and I can see the transformation in the kids - one day they're the sweet young girls and next, they are stabbing each other in the back. I only hope that my daughter is resilient enough to handle what comes her way. I applaud your efforts and hope that once and for all, this changes how women and girls treat each other. -


Madeline: When I was in fourth grade, there were two different groups of girls and my best friend that bullied me. They wouldn't leave me alone, they just kept mocking me and telling me I was weird. My best friend ignored me, she wouldn't even talk to me. When I asked her why she said, "Cuz you are a nerd, and I don't want people to think I am a nerd, too. Plus you hang out with Abby." Abby was the other girl who was bullied more than anyone, but she stood up for me, and I still and very thankful she did that, even though it didn't help much, I still felt like I had at least one friend who still cared. -


Maxine Devaux: I have been harassed about my weight and clothing since 5th grade. I have attempted suicide twice and have been fighting cutting for almost a year. Even though I may not feel it, I still know that there is hope somewhere, thanks to this campaign. -


Leslie: I have been bullied all my life. Not only by other people, but by life itself. I've never had many friends. A lot of people either think I'm annoying, judge me, or just reject me from the status quo. The first memory I have of being bullied was when my brother said it would have been better if I was never born, and he meant it. For a while, I would believe it. I hid in my room every day for a week and pretended I was never here. I got bullied in Kindergarten and 1st grade, the girls would make up any excuse to stay away from me and the guys thought I had cooties. All I had were 2 guy friends (one my crush) and 1 girl friend. Then someone told my crush I liked him. 1st grade and 2 friends. 2nd grade I had 2 guy friends who were like brothers to me. People started spreading rumours I was dating one, but were still friends. 3rd grade I made my 2 best friends (girls) of 5 years who are like sisters to me. Then one of my guy friends started treating me lower than dirt and dated my best friend and broke her heart. He even threatened to beat me up. That was the same year that I found that my pre-k crush and best friend was murdered. Yeah, murdered. It absolutely broke my heart. 4th grade was when the girl trouble started. I made another good friend who rode my bus. Then all of a sudden she starts lying to me and saying the worst things behind my back. Also that year I had a good guy friend (which I was hesitant about after last year) and once again the rumours start. Because one day my backpack slid to the back of the bus and yet another group of mean girls open my backpack, steal my diary, and read it. They see the initials of my 1st grade crush and mistake them for my guy friends, then make fun of me whenever I hang with him. 5th grade: my "sister" is home-schooled, but I get and I get 3 more good friends (girls). Really doesns't matter cuz nothing could replace her, but still. I did get really close with them though. Same year I find that I have a curve in my spine (therapy :-() and have ADHD, but I can't have meds for it. 6th grade: rolling backpack = people kicking you and calling you a b***h every 2 sec, 8th graders bullying you with the art of awkwardness, and all the drama. Also, I got 2 of the good friends made the year before taken away. 7th grade (this year) is not so bad. All of there's years I've had girls calling me fat, ugly ,annoying, and just about every mean thing you can think of. And at the time, it hurts. Girls started bullying me in kindergrden . If you ask me, this needs to stop. All it does is make people feel horrible. It's been happening to me for 13 years. I've been bullied a lot, so it doesn't effect me much. But for the girls that need that human companionship,that love, it can drive them to depression, anorexia, alcohol, drugs, prostitution, or even suicide. All of these things can destroy lives. This needs to be stopped. -


Leslie: I pledge not to talk about anyone behind their backs. No matter how mean they might be or what they've done. I will think about what I say before I say it. I will reflect on my day and apologize right away when I do something wrong or mean. -


Erin: There is a girl who dislikes me, and always has. She used to pretend to be my friend, but to tell my boyfriends or friends things about me that weren't true. I have slowly lessened my contact with her, and no longer talk to her at all. However, our school is doing a Kind Campaign fashion show with the help of Glamour and Glow, and I signed up. Today I realized that the girl who used to say nasty things to me and spread rumors about me is signed up. I really hope she learns something from this experience. But, I just don't see her taking anything from it. I just hope she doesn't hate anyone else as much as she hates me. -


Dave: HI My name is Dave. I discovered your website after just reading a Barbara Kay article titled "When Girls Ruin Girls." I was in middle school in 8th grade, around 1985 here in California. There was a pack of girls who hung out together, long-time friends from elementary school. Some of the were nice, but some of them were snobby and rude. A girl I'll call "Sarah" was the rudest, while another girl I'll call "Jennifer" was much nicer, and seemed to be just clinging to the pack of girls for approval. One day in class, "Sarah" started insulting "Jennifer", indirectly, talking trash. Then we heard other pack girls joining in with her. They kept whispering to each other, insulting Jennifer. But Jennifer...was one of their friends. But these girls kept talking about her. They would insult her then accuse her of being disloyal to the pack and talk trash on her. First it was whispers, but as class went on they talked louder and louder. So the whole class could hear it, including Jennifer. I looked over at her and she had her head down and her hands on her face. I thought the girls would notice and feel bad, but instead, the more she felt shamed, the bigger smiles and smirks these girls got on their faces. The teacher was a woman, she was one of those "hip" teachers who considered herself to fit in with the "cool" girls. She was writing on the chalkboard, pretending not to hear the girls. Well suddenly Jennifer jumped up out of her seat, and just stood their for a second, her face looking like it was going explode into emotion, but just stayed blank for a few seconds, then some tears came down and she started to run out of the classroom. The teacher got mad and said, "Excuse me! Where are you going?!". Jennifer stopped and turned around, her face was red and cheeks wet from tears, she said: "Can I leave, please?" Teacher said, "No of course not, sit back down". Teacher could see the tears, but showed no concern for her. So Jennifer ran out of the room. The teacher chased her, yelling at her. Then the girl pack who had been attacking Jennifer all looked smug and full of satisfaction. My desk was next to the door and I could hear Jennifer and the teacher talking, Jennifer was crying and explaining what happened, but the teacher was offering her no sympathy, demanding she come back to class, but Jennifer ran off and went home. The teacher then came back in and had a parade with it all. She spend the next 15 minutes talking about Jennifer and insulting her. Mocking her pretending to be her, jumping up and saying, "Oh I'm special and above others, can I just get up and leave please?" The pack girls absolutely loved it, laughing out loud and saying to the teacher, "Oh God I LOVE you!!!", and the teacher noticeably liking this attention. I'm 40 years old now but I never forgot Jennifer because the things that happened to her ended up teaching me important life lessons. Most importantly, the lesson of empathy. Compassion. Considering the feelings of others. Jennifer came back to school of course, but she was different after that. She was once excitable and fun and happy. Now she was quiet, never said much, and didn't smile much anymore. It was hard to get her to engage in conversation. Later as I got older, now 40, I would realize this was because Jennifer learned to stop trusting people. In her 13 year old view, if I was nice to her, maybe later I would stab her in the back and break her spirit. She wasn't willing to take the chance. I hope she overcame those things and has found happiness in her life. And while I'd like to strangle the girls who bullied her, I hope they became full grown women of integrity and dignity. As for you folks, I think it's awesome you have taken the time, and put forth the effort, to spread knowledge on the subject of female bullying. It has reached people, and will reach more. And as it does, it will help some of them break the cycle and stop bullying or abusing someone else. Or help non-bullied people to stand up for bullied people. Keep up the good work, it's appreciated, and Thank You for the opportunity to share this story, people need to be reminded they're not alone in their pains. Dave -

Its a constant everyday problem. I still haven't gotten control of it. To make matters worse I have trouble standing up for myself and respecting MY needs as opposed to other people's. I hope that one day (soon) I can fix this problem, with me and others. -

Jen: A group of my friends threw a sleepover party, to which they did not invite me, and voted about whether or not they wanted to remain friends with me. It's so immature that it sounds like a story from middle school or even younger--we're seniors in high school and it happened this year. -

Rachel: I'm in a group of girls who I call my friends, but I don't feel like they are. I'm always the one who just stands there, on the sidelines, hoping there will be someone who I can connect to, but there isn't. I feel all alone. Completely alone. -


Annette B.F.: In sixth grade, I thought I had the most nicest friend in the world. She would always meet me in the hallways before school and just hangout and talk about what we did last night when we weren't texting each other. People always thought we were a weird pair because I was 5'5 and she was 4'10. i had long brunette hair and she had shortish blonde hair. I has and still am a TOTAL tomboy and she is the defention of a girly-girl. One day she wanted me to be more like her. I asked her "Why? Don't you like me for how I am? I mean thats what friends do right?" She said "Yeah, but people are giving you looks when you are with me and I don't like how they look at me like that too. So we are going to make you girly. You are going to dress more like me and act more like me." I said "um..NO. I like who I am and if you don't like it then I'm sorry." At that moment I felt my stomach drop to the floor because right after I said that she said "Fine. Then I can't be with you anymore. I'll find a new best friend who isn't secretly a dude and who is mature enough to listen to someone's adivse." I remember I thought that everyone was staring at me that morning because I just broke up with who I thought was my best friend. Later she found a new friend, who is now one of my closest friends that I have ever made. The girl who bullied me who drag her new friend around like a dog and whisper stuff about me behind my back about how I'm such a whore and thats why I wear pants, because I'm forced to cover up and how I'm a bitch for being mad at her. It took me a lot of courage to say to her. "I don't appreciate you stabbing me in the back like that. It was not ok and stop spreading rumors about me." To this day she still treats me like dirt but then I think about the one friend I gained out of the situation and how I learned what a true friend is. If Gwyn F, Ashleigh M, Meredith T, Dani S, or Aoife M is reading this, you taught me what it means to be a friend.. If Amelie D is reading this, I just wished you would accept me for who I was and still am. -


Kailey: When I was in elementary school, you were only popular if you wore uggs and abercrombie. There was this big group of girls who never hung out with the rest of us, and it was as if everyone wanted to be them, except me. Then, one day, one of the most popular girls started hanging out with one of my best friends. she was kind of mean, so i stopped hanging out with my friend with that girl around. After a while, they stopped hanging out. Surprisingly, She started hanging out with ME! we had a lot of fun. I even went to her birthday party with all of her popular friends. But then she told me something shocking; she said that my friend said i was mean and a ploopy. That was HUGE. it was elementary school, when the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series was popular. mean was one thing, but PLOOPY? I couldn't believe it. So i stopped hanging out with my other friend. eventually, she came up to me at recess and asked me why i said that she was really dumb. I told her i never said that... and i know how much that would offend her, because she wasn't the best in school, or the smartest person i know. We told each other that this girl had told us that we were saying bad things about each other, and we figured out that she was driving us apart. even worse, she was doing it ON PURPOSE. we apologized for believing her, and we hugged. We just decided to slowly grow apart from her, and we hoped she didn't notice because we didn't want to cause a scene. I am glad to say that i haven't had much bully experience other than that. -


melissa felix: well hi ands u guys went to our skool and it waz cascade middle skool and wanted to say tat i am oin to ave a mavies well i am oin to tat movies and i want one of my best firends to o but se can not and i want to invite my oter bff ad i feel really bad wat shoudld i do ???? -


Laney L.: I guess I was always the type of person that stood out in the crowd, and people noticed. Bullying hadn't really been an issue in Elementary school. Until 5th grade that is. Then I started getting into history, preferably ancient times. My new weird passion got people buzzing with new energy. It wasn't until 6th grade that bullying became a problem for me. Boys and girls alike would taunt me or tease me, it was always an emotional war, even with the guys. I started feeling down all the time, and avoiding people almost anywhere. Even my own parents. I felt trapped because once I was out of school I knew I'd have to go back the next day. I didn't want to wake up in the morning, but I never did anything about it. I kept all of these feelings inside. They were like a virus slowly infecting me. I started hating the town I lived in, the people around me, and mostly me. I never told anyone. I was especially bullied in P.E. I was conscience of my body. I was thin, but never fit. So I changed in the corner. During P.E. I had a lot of athletic people in my class, which made me feel even worse. I would sometimes have meltdowns and hide in the locker room. But they always came back and coaxed me back outside. I was starting to understand why cutting was so attractive to people. But I never did. I was too scared. There was this one horrible day where people were yelling at me and shoving me, when on the bus I started contemplating whether suicide would be better than this life. But by the end of the year I got an award for my grades, which boosted me up a bit, gave me a scrap of confidence that other people had stolen. Summertime, and it was amazing, no one to put me down! 7th grade came along, and I felt much better. I had this Best Friend of mine, but she would always hang out with this other I hated. We already knew we didn't like each other, and that left everything pretty hostile. But I put up with it since 4th grade for my best friend. Suddenly one day she wouldn't really talk to me, and I panicked. My mom said that's natural with old friends, but I had this dread buried in the pit of my stomach. I would wait for her at our talking place every day, but she never came. Then I found out she was hanging in the library with another group of friends, with the other I did not like. That's when I started scrambling to try and get her back. I tried talking to her, her friends, and even her mom to see if something was going on. I got pretty sad again. I basically had no one else.I tried going to the counselor, but they did nothing. I remember feeling so confused and hurt on why my best friend would do such a thing. One of the other girls said to me online "Nobody wants you hear" That crushed me. Then they started avoiding me and giving me glares. They even moved to another lunch table, giggling and laughing loud enough so I could hear them perfectly. The girl I didn't like called me a "bitch". I told my parents about everything, and that made everything so much better. I was able to tell them everything and for the first time in a long time, cry it all out. They helped me so much, I felt better and better. I was more confident and sure of myself. I won Student of the month, and more awards for academics. Everything was finally behind me, and I could move forward. Now I'm in eighth grade and this year is so much better. I built myself confidence, because I learned nobody can be strong for you. I now do what I love, I'm in two school clubs, and even have a boyfriend. I made this year great because I had the determination to go out there and show myself off. I found out that relying in the past does no good to you now. I moved forward, and a long way it has gotten me! Everything truly does get better. -

Alexcia: I have talked behind my friends back to my other friends, and then talked behind their back to the other friend. I should have never done that. I have also secretly gone out with my best friends crush. I'm sorry. And I will never do that again. -


Noelle: I'm not really sure you would call it bullying. But still, last year in 6th grade, I was the nice, independent, shy girl. And most people ignored me, scooting away from me right when I sat down next to them. Nobody wanted to be my friend. And majority of my friends from elementary school had either ditched me for the popular clique or just decided that I wasn't good enough for them. The only remaining best friends of mine were two girls named Devyn and Elle. The problem was that they didn't have ANY lunches with me, so I would just be sitting by myself at lunch, reading a book and eating a sandwich. People obviously took this as a hint and immediately judged that I was a loser and biotch, so they ignored me for what seemed like eternity. All of my "friends" would ditch me, leaving me feel like such an outcast and loner that I was even afraid to go to school and walk the hallways. Near the third trimester, I was alone, none of my friends would talk to me, deciding that they were "too busy" with their new friends to spend time with me. This angered me but it made me so sad that I felt like a worthless, pathetic human being. A few days later, I tried to kill myself. I kept trying to persuade myself that no one cared for me in this life. I kept staring at the scissors, imagining myself take my own life with it. Soon, my mom found out what was happening and begged me to stop and enjoy life. This broke my heart. She was so oblivious to what was happening to me that I felt like if I let her know what had happened, all of my sadness would be stuck to her, making her carrying the heavy burden. I'm 13, and my name is Noelle. I almost took my life away because people who I thought were my friends ditched me and thought that popularity meant more than a trustworthy, loving, and caring friend. My life may seem terrible to some, and to others, this may seem like nothing. And I'm positive that others had had worse. -


heidi: i have been bullied since 3rd grade. everyone always made me feel like i wasnt important to anyone and i felt alone. i had no friends until 5 grade when i moved to a different state. i was deeply depressed and felt like nothing, my friends tried to change that and almost got me going again. i finally started telling bullies "you know what? i am my own person and nothing will bring me down anymore. you've done it once and trust me, it wont happen again." -


Maisie Luis: I have made fun of people my entire life, im the type of girl to see someone and automatically start judge. Or i see some and right away hate them. I cal people names and bring them down. I watched the kind campaign movie to day. And will forever and always regret how mean i was. I wanna be deifferent. I wanna be kind. -


Taylor M: When i was in first grade, i had really messed up teeth, and they were way too big for my mouth. I was teased every day, and i started acting "sick" just so i could go home and get away from it all. It continued into second grade, and the following summer i moved away from that school and the only two girls who hadn't made fun of me. When i got to my new school, i was still shunned by everyone, even though i got braces. I moved again at the beginning of fourth grade, and was still shunned and bullied not only because of my teeth but because i had already knew every thing we were being taught and was passing everyone up in their grades. My homework kept getting stolen right off my desk, and people didn't care when i went looking for it. I finally got my braces off that year, and that problem finally went away. I was still bullied only because i was smarter than everyone else. I moved up to Washington in the summer between fourth and fifth grade, and i finally stood up for myself and my friends. I became best friends instantly with a girl named Hannah, and soon had made friends with everyone in my grade. i was in all the extracurricular activities, and people came to me with their bullying problems. In sixth grade Hannah and i met Betina and Jaida, and the four of us became sisters. Jaida had been part of the popular group, and so when she came to hang out with us a few girls decided they didn't like it. they started spreading rumors about her, and i was the one who stood up to them and made sure people knew the rumors weren't true. Now I'm in seventh grade, and Hannah and Betina have both moved away. I'm really scared for Jaida, because she has decided shes overweight even though she is very very tiny. i have been giving her at least some of my lunch and have been buying lunch for her, but she refuses to eat and what she does eat she runs so much that it doesn't help at all. She looks at all these underweight girls and thinks that shes ugly and fat, and doesn't listen to any reason. Now she is moving at the end of the year, and is moving on the opposite side of the country than Hannah Betina and i. those same girls give me dirty looks on a regular basis, and when i walk by they stop what they were talking abut and whisper, and i often hear my name being used. they act sweet and nice to me, but their eyes pretty much scream "i hate you". It hurts really bad, but i never let it show because people see me as the girl who they can come to with anything. Last night i went to a finding kid assembly though, and halfway through i started sobbing. Luckily the other girls i went with just hugged me and cried with me, even though they had no idea why i was crying. Even though i have my share of mean girls, i have the greatest friends ever. -


Elizabeth: I first started getting bullied in kindergarten. A fifth grade girl would always push me around when ever she saw me. I tried to tell an adult but no one helped me. In second grade I met a girl who in third grade tried to take away all my friends she kept trying until sixth grade. She did this to me because i conforted a girl she make cry every recess who she called her friend.   Forth and fifth grade I was bullied by another girl physically and emotionally and I didn't stand up to her because I was scared of her. All through this time and even until now ive been called ugly fat bitch stupid loner and many more. I didn't become depressed though. I started to become friends with others who needed someone. I helped them find their voice and just was there for them. This summer I moved across Washington and left all my friends. I have been made fun of and am now the new girl who has 3 friends.  -


In Debt to Tiffany: I wake up I don't eat breakfast Just push my food around my plate, restless, feeding the dog what should be mine as my parents watch and wonder why I'm not chewing. School awaits, that horrible place, of what I was and want to be, but can't seem to achieve. Lunch arrives my stomach pleads with me, but there's my other half yelling and angry. I cannot eat. I cannot eat. It hurts either way. I push my plate away. School continues I'm too cold to think. There's a chill inside deep in my bones. My friend Tiffany, she confronts me, with an afternoon snack. My stomach rumbles my mouth waters and guilt thunders at me. I do not eat. I nibble at my dinner the food in front of me nothing but a calorie count. Bedtime comes I catch my face in the mirror. My eyes are sunken into my head, ugly and inhuman, like something dead. Skin stretched over bones my heart breaks a new I'm all alone. My hair is stringy not like it used to be. I'm ugly. I hear my parents through the wall as they debate what to do about my weight they talk of doctors and their cold tools They discuss therapy; a brain autopsy. I try to sleep but I'm too hungry so I go running until I'm tired. Morning comes black smudges under my eyes. Breakfast comes I eat four bites. My head screams at me, calls me fat asks do I really want to go back to a smelly fat lump in the corner? What I want is that evil conscience gone, that half dead face, these cold bones, this body. Gone. School passes by We're handed back a test. I failed. Why, oh why? Do I, have to be this way? PE is agony, the other girls, they see, poor ugly, bony me. My conscience and my skeleton. In science we learn of the universe. Anorexia Nervosa that word is scrawled on a paper, thrown at me. Anorexia Nervosa It sounds like a constellation, or maybe, I'm confused with Andromeda. I wish I was her she was the daughter of the most beautiful lady and was so pretty, a guy fell in love at his first sight. That, we learned in humanities. I spend lunch in the library hiding from the food, and Tiffany. I look up Andromeda and loose myself in the life so much better than mine. After lunch is sixth I skip with a note from the counselor. They give me a lecture I listen to what they say, through the screams of the other half of me. Poor grades they say, every teacher's worried. And my health, well for that I'm stuck here, every lunch. They want to control my weight, but don't they know it's the one thing I control. My grades I have lost my life has left the one thing remaining is my power to make that scale needle go steadily down. I'm strong enough to take charge of that one element in my life when every other thing about me has taken its own flight. My parents arrive, with the counselor and the principle. Their stern voices grate against my tired, ugly ears. Unhealthy weight. I do not eat. I'm ugly. I want the voices to stop, on my ears, and in my head. "Is this what you tell me?" The evil conscience says "Do you really want to loose me? Then you'll be a sweaty, fat, pig, eating everything." My parents take me home, in a car of worried silence. Nothing but me, and that menace, who's trapped beneath my skull. They ask if I'm hungry, If I'm fine, if I need--- I'm fine. This is the lie I say. I'm fine. This is not what I want. I cry, silently. why me? I eat a little dinner, hearing nothing but her. "You don't deserve this." "You're a hideous glutton, eating so much." "You make me sick." "You, nauseating...thing." I'm fine. Painful hours roll by same as always. People wave hi, to each other, not to me. At this rate, Tiffany, she's the only friend I have who hasn't deserted me. She tells me I have a problem. She calls it Anorexia. I am numb. I am fine. I am not Anorexic. We learned about eating disorders in 5th grade way back then, I never thought, I'd be one of them. I do not want it Maybe if I deny it it'll go away. I listen wordlessly and wish I could be not here, not me. The bell rings. We are in the girl's bathroom I hear the others going to class But, apparently, I am more important than that, to Tiffany. Tears roll down my sunken cheeks, Hateful words swim through my head. And I say the words I haven't said in far too long. "I'm hungry." -


Syndy: I'm 48 years old and still remember how much being bullied in 8th grade hurt. I was the new kid in school and made a great girlfriend, who was new also. We did everything together, then one day the cool girls started hanging out with her and she tried out for cheerleader. Instead of just making new friends and gracefully leaving me behind, she told them all sorts of things about me and the group of 4 of them tormented me for years. They never tired of it. I tried laughing it off and walking away. I didn't give them a reaction. They didn't give up. I had a new best friend who just stood by me and never mentioned it. She never talked back to them or stood up for me outwardly, but she did stay my friend. Our 30 year highschool reunion was this year and I didn't go because those same 4 girls were the organizers. Can't believe after all I have achieved and accomplished in my life that this still stings. -


Audrey: She would always be my friend when I was the only one there. But only when I was the only one there. Every time her popular friends would come she would just walk away from me and make fun of me. I loved her when she was alone with me, but not when her friends were. -


Nina: Anorexic. Bitch. Slut. Ugly. Whore. Wannabe. I've been called all those names. I'm 13. No one should go through that at 13 but I guess there's a time and place for everything. I felt gross, and when I looked in the mirror all i saw was an anorexic bitch. The girls who hurt me drove me insane. I couldn't escape them. They were at school and when they weren't physically around they were on Facebook and twitter. I thought I let it go but at my finding kind class I cried in front of all the girls at my school, and they did too. I found that the most secure people were sorry for things they've said and done. We were finally unified and one class didn't cut it. We all needed to share more. Every tear was meant for something that hurt inside and what shocked me is how much people hurt. -


Kellyn: Ok, well I haven't been affected by girl to girl, but more like mother to girl. My mother is down right evil. I still love her, but what she is doing to me is wrong. Her favorite form of "punishment" for me, is to slap me across the face several times, then pull me up to standing by my hair. And why I cry do to the pain, not the physical pain, but the mental, she just gets worse. And that was at the beginning. Now, it's worse. It seems that if I even give one wrong look, she goes nuts. If I get a 59% and not a 60% (60% is passing, 59% is failing) she'll get an email report, and then goes nuts on me. Any place I try to make a "safety" zone, it gets ripped to shreds. Not by her though, but by others. So, I have no place left to try to hide, to heal, so I get her full "assaults." the only way I was able to "release" the stress that She had placed on me, was to put it onto somebody else. But that led to more problems, which led back to more fighting. I get no help from my other family members. My father is out at sea, my step dad can help, but chooses not to, instead he hurts even more (I can hear him calling me stupid, and a lot of other things down the hall) My mother's mother, is worse then she is, my step-dad's mother hates my mother, my Father's mother has 3 grand-kids, so she doesn't really care. My friends don't know, since I can't bring my self to say this to them. The only person who can help is the adults at school who I'm friends with, but I don't think they really want to get involved with "family" matters. So, I'm left standing on my own, against her. I have all these things I want to say to her, all this pain I want her to feel, But I know that if I should do it, it would just rebound onto me, even worse. I still love my mother, and I don't want to leave her, but I just want to tell her to stop, with out getting hurt. Which, that really isn't an option anymore. I know I will get hurt, one way, or another. If I do nothing, I'll get hurt, if I stand up, I'll get hurt even worse. Help? -


Kathryn: Because of being a target of someones hatered, i never got to find out who i am really except all my flaws that people point out. it started when i was 7 years old. I was in the second grade and i had no friends. i was nice to everyone. But no one liked me or accepted me. Two girls were knowen as 'the popular people' and they absolutley hated me. the would corner me at recess and beat me up both verbaly and physically. i told the princlipal nd the teachers. sure, they talked to the girls and tried to figure out what would happen but the two girls told them that i was bulling them and that they were just standing up for themselves. so then i got into trouble and everyday they would beat me up day over day. i was afraid to tell my parents. It was an awful feeling to not have some one that believed me and stuck with the same pain day over day.And i never knew how to stand up for myself because i was always the shy girl and never knew how to speak my feelings. i went into deppresion from that point on and i was the age of 7. i was tooo young for that. this lasted for years. in the fourth grade, she was in my class again. i attepted to talk to other girls and try to make friends but after i would talk to them, the 'bully' would go up and corner them and after that they wouldnt even look at me. i was suffering from anorexia and became very skinny and unwanted. everyone knew and made fun of me for that. i missed a total of 25% of the school year faking sick because i didnt want to face that pain. in the fifth grade, i got over my eating disorder and got better. but still i was being bullied. people didnt accept me for my apperence and how ugly i was. my mom hated to see me like this and so we switched schools. but even there, the pain didnt stop there. people in the locker rooms would say to me, "you are too skinny!" i had friends but no one knew ME. no one would listen to what i was put through. i would look at other girls and say i wish i could find a pair of pants that fit me and i picked at myself and pointed out my own flaws and yuo dont know how much i have been through and how much i suffered. there was this guy i liked and one of the 'popular' girls decided that she should go out with him just to get on my nerves.they would call me constently and rub in my face that they were going out. i was isolated in my room and felt so alone and hurt. i cried and i laid in bed just hoping a friend would be there for me but they text me telling me, "i hate u!" and "Y do u always have to do that?" and tell me all my flaws when no one understands that im hurting. it seems as though its eaiser to say mean stuff on the internet then to peoples faces because thats where it kills me the most. and the story gets worse, one night my 'friend' texted me and said that she was friends with the person that bullied me and were hanging out on friday and then i got a call from the 'popular' girl and she was saying all this mean stuff to mean and then, my friend was chating with me and says that they hate everything about me and that im ugly, too skinny and that everything would be way better with out me here. that made me break down i was crying for like 2 hours straight and finally i had enough of living. so i tried cutting myself. luckily i didnt lose too much blood and im still alive today. i am such a good friend to others but they all just go fake on me. i never knew what it was like to be treated good and have someone there for me. i was so thankful when 'The Kind Campaign' came to my school and i reliezed im not alone and a ton of people are treated this way. i just wish that i had a better life then i do right now. schools try to do an 'anti-bulling system' but just putting posters on the wall that say 'don't bully' doesnt do anything and i wish people can just hear my story instead of judging me by my appearence. -


Lauren Couch: For reasons that I don't know, I never seem to be able to make friends, true friends. I really wish that would change as time passes. -


Gabrielle Ferdeaneto: I called my friend Shalyn a butthead and then she threw a book at me and it hurt really bad -


Karen : I wasn't what you would call fully "bullied". However, I was affected when I was 11 years old. I had a very "close" friend that would also hangout with my arch enemy. I didn't like it...at all, but I dealt with it for my friends sake. But my friend started spending more time with my enemy and it bugged me, I felt I was losing my friend. Being a girl, I did get mad at her over text and told her how I felt that my rival wasn't a good influence on her. My friend tossed me like old news after that. She was hanging around with my enemies crew and could care less about me. Her new friends would give me looks and would say little side comments to me that would send me home crying everday. I didn't want to go to school. I even had thoughts about running away. How I wished I could take back what I said. I got stronger though because I had a true friend stand by me the whole time. That summer, I was going into middle school and I got a stomache ache just thinking about it. I was seperating from my closest friend, my dad was going overseas, and just everything about middle school scared me. About a week before school started, I got these "anonumus" text messages telling me how "dumb", "stupid", "bossy", and what a "bitch" I was. I figured out later that it was my old friend saying all that to me. I was hurt, but it also told me that I have better things than her. I had true friends and family that stuck by my side and didnt call me a "bitch" or "dumb". When school started everything got better. We forgot all about the incident becuase we had more to worry about with school work. Were not as good of friends as we were, but now we smile and talk to eachother unlike after our fight. My main message is to tell girls who are getting bullied that it all gets better, belive me. -


Aly Robbins: Fifth grade was awful to me! I was the new girl in school, and I knew that everyone hated me from the start. There was one girl in particular though, who instilled such fear in me that I didn't even want to go to school some days. She lead her group of girls around, hating on me and giggling about me behind my back. I had just been silly one day... I didn't do anything too bad! I heard them. They knew it. I think they wanted me to hear them. Another girl, Steph, she became my friend. We had fun together. Everyone hated also because she hung out with me, but she didn't care. That is until she became friends with the mean girl. Steph turned on me one day, and she also became a source of fear to me. They all hated me. I was broken. I wanted my parents to take me out of school. It didn't stop in middle school either. Steph continued to be my friend one week and start hating on me the next, dragging others with her. It wasn't until 8th grade that she decided to become my friend for good... and we have been BEST friends ever since! I am in 10th grade now. -


Olivia: I did not get bulled in till i got to 4th grade because that is when i got glasses. All the girls were making fun of me and i did not know why. I was very sad all the time and for a 10 year old that is not good i would be in my room all the time. But not the way the kids my age would play in my room i would go in my room and block the door then grab something very sharp then iI would cute my self deep.One time I took string and I raped it so tight around my neck i almost killed my self but then I thot of my moms face if she and fond me and then i cryd and i said no thats stupid my family loves me to much. Now that i look back I cant belive I was like that.When i was in 6th grade people called me fat ugley bitch and i could not take it. The boys i hated me. I was way jeles of my best friend Alyssa beacuse she was the one that always look at her and not me so next year i renbled, i smocked and i kissed boys .....and i ahd fun.But now I see the hate in girls and in me. This is going to sould stupid but when i got my boy friend Roby I am so happy that a biy finly sow me for who I am. To all the girls thatread this love your self first and try your very best not to hate the bully(s) to much because then might have a bad life at home or in ther past. -


Alyssa: My parents always ask me why I hang out with boys more than girls. I never really had an answer til I saw your documentary, I realized that You are right girls are mean the only real friends that I have that are girls are two people, Olivia, and Felicia...the rest are boys, my parents don't understand...When I first moved to where I am now I didn't know anybody; a girl across my street seemed nice til later on in the year I found out that she will turn on you for popularity and just to get what she wants, including the guy. I felt unloved by friends and family I didn't have a good relationship with my mom at the time so I could never talk to her so i never her told her the stuff that went on in my life, But when people really started to be mean, untruthful, unjust, and unkind, I let it go and almost hung myself, I couldn't take the pain, it was an emotional tole that was tearing my life apart, but my best friends, Felicia, and Olivia lifted me from my weights of my destruction and lead me to know that I will have friends and that I do, But the pain from the past always drags me down.... -


Brianna: My best friend is also my worst enemy. I love her, she's the only person who's stuck by me through everything. But she's the kind of person that has the power to make or destroy your whole day by just a few words. She constantly makes subtle comments about what I'm eating, what I'm wearing, everything. And it tears down my confidence because she is literally perfect. -


Erin: Well there was this girl at my old school and she tell me that my face was scrude up and that my eye brows were ugly and she was my best friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so I plucked my eye brows and made them really pretty in my oppinion but they were all scrude up!!!!!! Then when I started Middle school I thought things were going to be different. I tried to hang out with the "COOL GROUP" but they all hated me. There was this girl named Jadie the sweetest friend any one could ever have but I thought I was toooo cool for her but she was the best friend anyone could ever have but I treated her like TRASH!!!!!! I COULD NEVER DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH TO SHOW HOW MUCH IM SOOOOO SORRY FOR THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -


Laura: I spend a lot of time online blogging, which has connected me with many girls all over the world. Even though I have never met any of them, I love them all and consider them true friends. Every once in a while, someone who I may have never talked to, or I may be great friends with, admit that they are suicidal and depressed. We always tell them that they deserve better, that we love them and they are worth so much. But one girl said, "I appreciate all of your kind words, but sadly, those who I know in real life, outside the internet, do not agree. I am not worth anything to them or to my family, and I love you all, but you are on the other side of the world, and I am alone here." She took her own life that night, and I am afraid that sending kind messages and love across the internet isn't enough all the time. I want to shake the people from her school, her family, and her bullies, make them realize that they have lost something with that girl. That the world has lost something. -


Remelou: Well, this girl in our school tells me to fuck off her life just because I'm the 1st in the class. And she said a lot of bad things to me. -


Stacy: I am the mother of two daughters--aged 16 and 17. Over the years I have seen plenty of incidences where they have been on both ends of girl-on-girl crimes. But what led me to your website was the latest incident with my 16-year-old which didn't just involve another girl but her mother too. If mothers are teaching and encouraging girl-on-girl crime by allowing their daughters to be exclusive, catty, and nasty then we are in for a long haul. I applaud your efforts...it starts with ONE girl (or ONE mother) to stand up for change. I'd love to see this change in my lifetime...thank you for raising the bar... -


Megan: 2 of my friends and I were best friends like the 3 muskateers. Friend 1, she started dating the guy friend 2 secretly liked, and they got in this huge fight and made me pick sides and I said that I wasn't going to pick sides and that if they were really friends they would make up and stuff and they got mad at ME and started calling me a bitch and a slut and that i was only friends with them to become popular because I was too ugly to become popular. It was soo sad... I was embarressed to go to school somedays and other days I would be so glad to go because i remembered the friends i had... One of my friends apologized and we are best friends now but the other friend still hates me... -


Anonymous : her life isn't great her mother a drug addict , Father careless and violent. So to sum it up her life isn't to great but i've always been the best friend i ever could possible to her just her. She thinks i am her slave she doesn't want me doing anything else but following her around and doing nothing more than solving her problems and telling her how great she is. When we are in an argument she decides when its over,she decides what i say, who i can be friends with and and what i do. I don't want to be her friend but obviously i don't decide that either. When we are in an argument she just goes off and tells anyone she can think of every secret i have ever told her so what would it be like if i wasn't her friend at all? If i had any choice at all should i be her friend if i know exactly what she will do if I'm not her friend? -


caitlin: I lie to all my friends about my wieght because i don want to be made fun of yet i go and make fun of others. -


Maddie: A girl at my camp had aspergers. All the other girls and guys made fun of her behind her back and wouldn't talk or sit next to her. When they did talk to her, they said sarcastic comments which secretly made fun of her but she had no idea. I should have done something...but I didn't. And I regret every second of it. -


Jenny: I've been bullied by a group of girls since 4th grade because of my race and this year I've decided to stick up for myself but I did that in a horrible way. Now there is more tension between us then ever before. -

Blair: One day out of nowhere my closest freinds turned on me and made my life miserable. -


Jensen: One time this girl and "my best friend" wrote a note to me that was 2 pgs long front and back and it had all the things they thought were wrong with me. another time the same girls and some other girls made up this girl (who was really me) just so they could talk about me in front of my face. and this girl its like every time i get a best friend she takes her from me. no joke. and she is very immature and i know i can be annoying but i'd rather be annoying than be mean. we had finding kind preview at our school the other day and im almost positive it didnt affect her in any way. i know yall say everyone has a story to why they r so mean but shes not bullied at home or anything shes spoiled rotten and it really ticks me off cuz i have to work hard to get what i want but she just gets evrything handed right to her. -


sharon: Im sorry for calling you a stupid wierdo i hope we can be friends -


Teddy-San: All my life I have been trying to be a good and nice girl,but only a few people from my school like me. I am constantly by myself and I get hit,screamed at,teased at,and etc. i hope someone does not get it like I still do. -


Francis: My daughter was called Fat this past week. She is 8years old. I saw first hand how strong she is when she told me. I could also feel how she lost a small piece of her that day. I could only hold her and tell her that girls can be mean and in time things can and will be better. -


Nicole: I sent my friend Paith mean questions on formspring because i was envious that I feel she has been taking all my friends. -


sarah: one day when i was going to school on the bus this boy micheal was saying mean things to me. he said things like: YOU SMELL! or your ulgy you have no friends. i went home that day crying because of him. he constantlay annoying me every day. he wont give me a break! -


char: dierdre, javier and judy, you were my close friends and one day i came home and you stopped talking to me, moved out and never spoke to me again. That was 20 years ago and i still think about it everyday and wish i knew what i did to you to make you so angry at me. maybe i should know but i dont and i wish one day someone will tell me so i can understand -


Georgia: I've had an eating disorder for 3 years now, I'm anorextic, For 2 years I have kept it secret. I had to go Doctors appointments all the time for pills,sometimes I have to force feed my self. It started when I was in infants school, I wasn't bullied because I was anorextic but I was very tall, my dad is 6ft so my height is one of my genes. I used get pushed and tripped over and friendless. The bullies then used pick on me and call me names because they thought if the pick on tall kids the small ones would back down. I felt really hurt then I decided tell a teacher and she helped me feel unique. When I went up junior school, I really trusted my best friend and decided to tell her I was anorexitic, she swore to keep it a secret, She kept it a secret until the end of year 4, beggining of year 5 she blurted it out to her new best friend charmaine just because she thought she could blurt it out cuz were in different classes. Every since then she and other girls ave being call me names like skinny winny and started just being a bully. I ignored the names and thought about the lessons my primary teacher tought me to feel unique until the point I started satying behind classes, get punched in my stomack so It cause me more pain and then crying. I told my headteacher and told them stay away from me and we have a stamp system where if you be good you get a stamp but if you lose more than 3 sttamps you lose you treat and they lose 3 months worths of stamps. Now I still get teased by them and other girls but I found friends that understand what I am going through, they made me feel more proud and happy in myself, I still get tablets that help me eat and lose the pain. Thanks to the kind campaign, I have been reading how to deal with these problems like mine and they have really help me become a better person. -


Chloe: When I was in seventh grade two people I thought were my really good friends told me they didn't want to be my friend for three reasons but I can't remember them exept one: that they didn't like how I talked loudly. I then cried for the next 10 minuets and walk to my next class with people asking if I was ok , i said I was fine when all I wanted to do was go home. Once in class this girl who was one of "those" girls who was mean to me asked if I was ok. In that moment my take on her changed. She's not as mean as I thought. -


allie: In about fourth grade i started devolpeing way faster than everyone else i was very very tall and just bigger than everyone and i really stuck out in the crowd, everyday for about 3 months.One day before we got off school for break all i can rember is all the mean girls saying "you must be glad were on break so you can just go home and eat and eat and eat." that hurt and whenever we got back to school they had made up the cruel cruel name the whale. one day we were drawing and they drew a picture on the white board for the whole class to see that had a very large circle labeled with my name and abunch of sayings like i cant see my toes and why am i so huge. also they would always just look me up and down and laugh.Also they drew a notecard of me and just laughed about it, i took up the whole note card. its been 4 years but i still canot get over it, everyday i look in the mirroir and wonder why they said that, because it follows me around everywhere i go. its why im so self concious. i still know the mean girls i sit next to one of them in english i cant look at her the same. fourth grade was the worst year of my life and i truley wanted to die. -


Allie Fulcher :): Iv'e been hurt before too, like other girls around America. Today at my school- Salmon Bay k-8 in Seattle Washington- (I'm in 6th grade this year) we watched the film and my friends from homeroom sat there together as the video began. I didn't think it would touch my heart as much as it did. But watching all those people crying, speaking about death wishs, telling a hard story made me cry. Because it was true all of it. That hurt. Knowing we hurt people as an first instinct, hurt. It reminded me of how cruel people - especially girls can be. I'm in a BIG group of friends and we fight alot! In our little group we have a queen bee her followers and everyone else. WE FIGHT OVER THE DUMBEST THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( this is a poem about it: Grumble Grumble Fight Fight Gee... I hope I look alright! and we make such a big deal out of media issues and gossip I think it's sad! A constant thing that happens to me is being back sassed it's an insult that sounds nice- only it's not it can be obviously mean or subtle this is what one of my best friends said to me a couple weeks ago on the soccer feild when I messed up on my kick "Oh come on Allie, at least you TRYED that's what counts very funny only I didn't fail or anything- it still went pretty far! I hate the tone of vioce she used on me! HOW DARE SHE?! and the other day on of my friends said, because I'm special ed and I have a special ed class "Oh RIGHT your in homework club NICE!" Actually alot of my friends have commented on me being special ed. It's sooooo funny only NOT to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Back to the video that we watched- When it was over me and my friends did a group hug and went back to class. Later, when we were doing apoloage cards one of my friends who I'd been fighting will gave me one and I gave her one back and we made up!:) You guys work magic and I hope we can all join together to stop bullying! Luv Allie, :) -


anonymous: people sometimes call me a bitch, slut, whore, and airhead.( this is the popular group) blahhh.......im fine now tho.... i have great friends! -


Maddie: Hi! i have been bullied before and its NOT fun...luckily now i have a great group of friends! i was bullied in fourth grade by carrissa...she was very mean and tried to take my best friend:( good thing is now she is at a prep school...we just watched the kind documentary and it made a great impact...everyone is now friends!!! thanks so much lauren and molly! u guys r great! love love love! -


Meghan Hanlon: My name is Meghan... Here is my story. It all started in 6th grade when this girl named Sam. Were werent that close until she started to get bullied by all of her freinds. First, I was the only one who really stood up for her. Then my freinds helped her out. We were all becomming so close... when it happened. One january day, all the popular girls that hated sam invited her back into the group, totally excluding me and my friends. I felt crushed ... She apologized... i sadly forgave her, even tho it wasnt a true apology. 7th grade was Ok... but at the end of the year she called me a terrible actress and put all of my friends down and started rumors about all us. Now its 8th grade and she and the popular group have basically ostrasized me from their entire group. We just watched the movie and they all hugged me while i cried and said sorry... but i dont know if they were being true or not... since they lied b4... idk what to do -


Claire Randolph : I've spent 10 years with an eating disorder. A couple years after it first developed, I was at my lowest weight. One of the girls in my old school purposely called me fat, "Little Debbie Cakes", and many other derogatory names. As my illness progressed and it became more noticeable, she then began telling everyone about my illness (something which she knew nothing about the truth of). I used to wish that she'd get fat, become friendless, and even develop disordered eating habits. … Years later, I dropped out of my highschool, went into homeschooling and graduated eary. I'm in college now, and at a close friend's wedding, I was a bridesmaid with this girl that had spent so many years making my life hell. The night of the bachelorette party, all of us girls met up to get together. Everything I had wished on her had become true. I overheard her talking to our friend getting married that she suffers from binge eating disorder (her bridesmaid dress no longer fit compared to a month ago), as a means to cope with the death of her father when she was a child…. My father passed away the year I graduated highschool. While you see no error in how you treated me and so many other girls in gradeschool, I'm sorry that all of the horrible things I wished on you came true. You and I are have more things in common than I'd ever care to voice aloud. I hope you find your way out of this dark tunnel. There's light on the other end. I'm sorry we never talked to one another. I feel like maybe we could've helped each other out, if things had even been just the slightest bit different. -


Amoya: One day we were at school in an assembly and I was shouting good job to the people who got awards and this girl starts talking to another girl about me and I said to my friend what's er problem and she just turned around and talked more and more about me and inside I felt really hurt and betrayed because we were friends and now I feel like she's my enemy.When girls go behind your back and start talking about you just say "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me!" -


Julie: I pledge to be kind and to say something nice to at least three people everyday. -


Savanna: No one deserves to be treated poorly. Many girls at my school are, and that's not a good thing. Being put down and bullied doesn't feel good. Everyone deserves to be treated kindly. Just because people look different, doesn't mean its a bad thing. We should stand up for each other, not put each other down. I know how it feels. We do this to each other. We have all been victims. -


Cleo Hadel: I pledge to live with who I am love who I am care about how I treat MYSELF how I would treat others and be kind to myself and others. -


Student at Niguel Hills: I go to Niguel Hills Middle School and I got bullied by one kid, and today, when the video was on people stood up for me and I stood up for myself, and that one person apologized, thank you so so much, I don't get bullied but I stood up for the people that did. I also saw a lot of girls hugging and apologizing. I know you guys used to go to my school and I think that you know the atmosphere, it is so great that people stand up for you. Keep up the good work. -


ANHE: I am sad because I and my clasmate were fighting each other. -


Nicole Maniez: As a woman in my thirties who has a daughter and works with youth, it breaks my heart to remember the confusion and struggle of growing up. Having been on both sides of mean, today I work to create space for girls and women to explore their membership in sisterhood and community... what it means to raise up yourself and others. Together we stand stronger. Let us forgive each other and ourselves. Let us support each others brilliance. -


kasey : im white my name is kasey and every day people look at me like im a slut or ugly people at my school even though its catholic people shouldnt say things because im not pretty or i dress inopropitate on tag day and it puts me down but then i hold my head high and to this point i feel like i have no feeling because of what people have done to me -


Jennie Jensen: Since kindergarden I was bullied and made fun of because I was different. I had alots of suicide attemps, and first when I was in 7th grade I chanced school and now I am happy again. Bullying can ruin life so think about that the next time you bully or make fun of someone else just so you can belong. -


Cleo Hadel: I pledge to not home crying because of one certain person and keep my head high nobody is worth your tears and the ones who are wont make you cry -


Becca: My "friend" spread a rumor to my "best friend" that i had called her a selfish bitch while at my house. This was NOT true. The next day at school, I sat down at our usual table, just to see my group of friends stop, shoot me a dirty look, and then sit down a few tables away. I started to cry and ran off to the bathroom until a teacher came and took me to the counciler's office. I stayed home for about the next 2 weeks because i said i had the "stomach flu", when really, it was because i had no friends and was depressed. By the end of that year (7th grade) i had made a whole ton of new "friends" in the popular crowd, and i was happier than ever before. I was getting invited to parties and shopping for stylish, expensive clothes.But then during the summer, i didn't hear a word from any of my new "friends". After spending another depressing summer alone, i was glad to get to 8th grade and see everyone again. None of the girls would talk to me. They didn't even have a reason. They just stopped. So, on the first day of school i sat with one other girl, who couldn't fit into her friends' table. Then the bullying began. My former friends told me that i needed a nose job, and that my voice was too deep for me to be a girl. And when i had a crush on this guy i liked who also happened to like me back, they told him that i was a stalker and i was obsessed with him, so he never talked to me again. Now, i never get invited to the parties, i never go shopping, and i never get to hang out with anyone, all because they thought i was a popular bitch, when really i just got left by all the popular bitches in the dust. I just wish one person would ask me to hang out with them or actually talk to me when i try to talk to them. I want just ONE friend to be there for me. -


Nur Shaqira 9 years old: Actually I wanna have friends like others. That's why,this is the first time I've been to www.kindcampaign.com -


Katy Lund: She hates me, we've been best friends since 1st grade, and she hates me because her ex-boyfriend likes me. I didn't ask him to like me, I don't want him to like me, this isn't my fault and she's telling people that I ruin her day whenever she see's me. What did I do? How can I possibly fix this? I don't understand what I did wrong. -


Erin: I am an adult, mother of a young girl, PTA member and a Girl Scout leader. All through Elementary, High School and even as an adult in the workplace, I was bullied. The worst agressors were always female. One day they were your bffs, sharing secrets and braiding your hair. The next, your secrets were being whispered as you walked down the hall toward a girl who was waiting to challenge you to a fight or who would later ambush you as you walked home from school.(Or spreading rumors at work to prevent you from getting a promotion.) It is more than 20 years since the abuse began and I still have scars. I WILL NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO MY DAUGHTER!!! I have seen girls as young as Kindergarten repeating this pattern. It is no mystery where this is learned, as I have witnessed it among the "mature" Moms of the PTA and have even had "adults" mock other mom's daughters at Girl Scout meetings. The only changes are that there are now MORE and EASIER ways to be mean. It has taken becoming a mother for me to stand up and even at first, it was only as a "Momma Bear." Standing up for myself came much later. I pray that I am a good example for my daughter and my scouts. I hope I can show them how to be good and kind. I wish that "mean girls" were only a cautionary tale and not a harsh reality. -


Arooj Naghman: ive been bullied before from a girl that i taught was my friend. She made fun of me and called me fat, ugly and also a bitch. The story started when i was in grade 6. She was my best friend but she just used me because she wanted 2 be the popular girl at school. We were in the talent show and she made a mistake and use 2 gossip that i made the mistake all the time. People use 2 call me "the embarrassment". She even told the guy i liked that i liked him and i didnt want her 2. After she told me she didn't want 2 be my friend because she taught i was an embarassment. She would lie 2 my mom saying that she hit me or she punched me in the face when i didnt do anything. My mom yelled at me and after that i wish i were dead. I would cry everyday in my room and even at school. She even lied that my other friends told her not 2 be her friend when they didnt. I was so happy when she moved back 2 Chicago. She still had my number and now she calls me a bitch everyday. I wish i taught her how cruel she can be. Now i feel like i didnt do anything. But now i think of it i dont cry and i let it go. I want her 2 nevercome back ever again and that reason is only cause of this campaign. -


Taylor Chanes: I have not been the best person, but I do not deserve to be judged by my appearance. In middle school, there were alot of asian kids. They discriminated because I am mexican. They made me feel like I was not good enough. They were very hurtful. When I finally went to a school counselor, I was after made fun of because I told. It wasn't until I lost my mom, that they started to be nice to me. after 3 years of hatred from them, I was afraid to even talk to them when they were "being nice". It wasn't until 4 years had gone by that I finally DIDN'T CARE about them anymore and I was able to recover from that traumatic experience. -


Asher Herrmann: During the seventh grade (now) I have been called pimple face and zit face and many things similar to that and sometimes even by my own best friend. It makes me feel like everyone would be better if i just left. I have also been called the same things by many boys and that ,makes me feel like i'll never get married or get my first kiss. I know God says that he loves us and we shouldn't care what others think but I doubt that a lot. -


Camille tonkin: For a couple years a girl named edan has said mean things behind my back so one day I walked up to her and just gave her the truth. I just eishi could have a couple of seconds withoit being bullyed. -


Fiona N.: I use to always be picked on for the way I feel, I never really had true friends,but I was blind folded by lies. Out of all 4 of my best friends, 2 of them would always talk behind my back and pick on me, They thought it was okay, a few days before my friends confronted one of my best friends for throwing basketballs at me, all she had to reply was " So? I've done that since grade 4 and we're still friends." They'd call me drama queen and emo for trying to kill myself or cry over something that they've done. Now I can fully see who's my true friend, and who's just there to use you. -

Katie: a few weeks ago i found out my bestfeinds have been talking about me behinde my back and im heartbrocken i thought i could trust them. but also recently they have been leaving me out.(because there is three of us its always awkward) but now they are being all of a sudden bestfriends with this girl and i feel she has replaced me. and they keep on meeting up withought me. i was playing out one day with my sister and all three of them walked past me and completetly ignoreed me. they are a great laugh when im with them but when im not with them they talked about me? i dont want bestfriends who act like that? are they worth the upset? -


Mariah: My best friend left me because I'm not popular the other popular girls make me look like a complete fool they call me ugly fat loser loner I have felt like I should be dead to make them happy but to have my best friend be taken away do popularity I would come home and cry and cry every night . They would look at me and laugh at me and my teachers wouldent do any thing -


demi: i've been bullied verbally and emotionally since sixth grade. socially ostacized until seventh. now i am dedicated to finding a way to be kind to everyone -


Sara: im a brat i admit it i talk about people i comment on everything they do I call them names i tell them what to do i tell them there are nothing im a Bitch i admit it but i know in a couple years i will be the one to pay for it im a horrible person. I made a girls life half hell because shes dating a guy i love. So in a couple years she can put me down!!! -


Julia: I wish, I wish, I wish I could have a chance. A chance to be discovered. -


Sara: OK i admit it i talk behind peoples back i tell secrets and i put people down. But when someone came to my school and said to stop bullying OH MY GOD i realized what a brat i am and i'm still like that. Im A Terrible Person i hate being like this because in a couple years everyone is going to hate me and i know that. its to late to go back to people i was horrible to AND THEY WERE MY BEST FRIENDS i always criticized everyone and commented on every little thing they do. I was such a brat to a girl who was dating the guy i liked i ruined half her life but after that stop bullying girl came i fixed it!!! I'm A Brat I Admit It!!! -


Phoebe: After all these years the truth is now being drilled into my mind. I'm fat. I'm ugly. I'm stupid. I stopped eating for a while. A girl came up to me in the hallway and she said, "I'm doing a project on famines. Could I interveiw you?" No matter what I do I'm not perfect. I have blonde hair and blue eyes. But not the right kind. I know the Barbie doll is supposed to be bad but I want to be like Barbie. She's perfect. We all have scars. I just wear mine on the inside. To protect my family. They don't know half of my life. I hate sports and my dad wants me to do them. I like acting. I wish I could tell him. My friends do sports and want me to join but I don't want to. I HATE SPORTS! I HATE MY FAT, UGLY SELF! I just want to cry sometimes. I do all the time. But then I get made fun of because I'm not wearing mascara or make up. I hate life sometimes. I look at our medicine cabinet sometimes and wonder how long it would take for me to die after putting the pills in my mouth. -


Phoebe Olderman: I was bullied a lot. I like to express myself through clothes and hair and some people make fun of me. I remember the in the third week of middle school I bought new clothes and wore the outfit. My BEST FRIEND asked if I would change into my gym clothes. It was a sparkly T-shirt and skinny white jeans. I wore a pink velvet bow in my hair. By fourth hour kids were shouting "Hey look it's project runway! I see her outfit, now I want to run-away!" It really hurt. Soon my friend asked if I would change MY LAUGH. She had a problem with THE WAY I LAUGHED. I spent my third hour in the girl's bathroom crying. Now I still haven't toId my friends. I wish I could. I want to. But I'm too scared. -


Phoebe: I'm sorry to a girl who is now a close friend. She is a year younger than me and was in my fifth fourth grade class mix. I was a popular fifth grader and it went to my head. I called her a follwer behind her back. I'm so sorry Gayle. I hope this won't hurt our friendship. -


A Broken Heart: i have been bullied for 6 years. I have been slappedand people have wrote mean notes about me. I have had people crush my dreams. To this day i feel scared and shy and i feel like i can't trust people. Others actions have changed me completely. My mom said i used to be all smiles. Now I feel like im wearing a mask. As time passes i can feel the mask slowly coming off. Kids giggle while i do things and I immediately believe i have done something wrong. i have received notes saying things like "You suck at everything." or "Stop trying to be a know it all." . I once tried to audition for a play and right after my audition a girl asked me "Are you sure you want to do this? I mean there is singing and it doesn't seem like you handle stage fright very well." . I am actress and im not gonna let anyone tell me otherwise. I have amazing friends now who are always there if i need to cry. Even though i feel somewhat worthless i know im a shining pearl in my friends eyes. To everyone else how has been bullied~ Please dont go off killing or cutting yourself! I know how you feel you are NOT alone! there are people who love you. You just gotta find the right person -


A.Crystal: People make fun of me just because I look different. They say everytime I jump the whole world shakes, they say Im not pretty enough too be a girl. I have a lot of bad things to say everytime they make fun of me but I don't because thats not who I am. My best friends don't stick up for me instead they just laugh along. It really hurts when they do that but I don't show it because I don't want the bullies to know Im scared. I feel sorry for the bullies because they have nothing to do but make fun of pretty girls like me. -


daisy cooper: i got bullied because i am ginger and i like harry potter very much but then i told the headteacher and she old them off and i accept im ginger and i like harry potter -


Katelyn Marie Shawan: My foutth grade year at Langford in Austin, Texas was good in the begining upuntil we got two new students in our class and they mainly ran it bucause they were "so cool" people said. Well that year i lost all my friends no one liked me the two new girls started rumers that made me uncomfortable and cry. And what i hated the mot is my best friends listened to them and not me i heard them say, " so is Katie really going out with Nick" they woudent even go up to me they just asked one of the girls. i still don't know what i did i know that when they frist came is was really nice some people say i was too nice and they too advantage of me so thats why they did that. But i don't know i just don't want it to happen to me again! So after that year we moved to Michigan and of chore i did get some bulling cause in the new kid with weird parents and i talk different. But now that has lessend and im in middle school where i have pretty good friends amoung my clasmates now maybe not all like me but if i can deal they can deal too!! -


Emma Joy Balllard: I had spred a rumor about my friend. She did not like it she had felt scared and upset. I had told her who had did it and she understood why. She said thank you for telling me. She had understood why i had started it in the first place. I now knew that what they had said hurt her. So i had the guts n started a new rumor about me. To get the old one about her out. I felt good about it. She was happy and so was i. What they had said about me i did not care. Because i knew that it was a good reason why it had gotten started. -


KatieBeth: I get bullied a LOT. Some people think i am gross, and some think i am mean. This is not true about me, but I cry. I think they are just doing that to suck out my self esteem. -


Sydney: I'm so tired of being told I'm nothing; people have told me that since I was old enough to be in school. I was always the weird girl. After a few years; I just got tired of trying to prove them wrong; and I accepted everything they were saying. I still do. I believe I'm ugly, and fat, and just once; I wish I could be beautiful. -


11 years old: I dress driffrent than outher people and get made fun of it because of it yea they wear pink and stuff and i wear black but that doesnt mean they should think what they want just by looking at how i dress. They see me wear my jacket ALL day i NEVER take it off and it's their fault, they made me so mad and sad and more feelings that i couldn't take it so I have these cuts on my arm, they are from trying to take the feelings away or just trying to kill myself. Yes it's true I have pulled a gun to my head yes i want to die i don't know why i didn't pull the trigger. -


Anne Marie: I am always afraid to stand up for myself. I never want to be mean or mad but i get hurt and feel like i cant do anything about it. -


a: Try being bullied by 60+ kids, I had two whole classes of children bully me the same year, PLUS rumors spreading from GUYS--yes, guys--I refused to sleep with or date and girls who made up in their mind I was trying to steal their 'boyfriends'. Assumptions lead nowhere good, I'll tell you...if they would've talked to me, instead of attempting to spread rumors and do mean things to me, there wouldn't have been a problem. Ladies, for us to be the sex who talks the MOST, we sure do suck at using communication for what it's meant to be used for. -


Gabriela: i am so sorry for hurting some of my friends, i hope that you will frogive me -


Gabriela Age: 8: When my parents got divorced i fell into depression and thought fo suicide but Kind camipghn helped me. -

Kathrina: sometimes after school i go in to the bath room and cry,for 30 minuets,less or more. -


Anon: My bestfriend in grade 6 would only talk to me when her 'popular' friends weren't looking. It used to kill me inside. All my true friends used to tell me to give up everytime I would finally decide too, she would catch on and call me up and ask to hang out. We had been best-friends since grade 2 and I didn't want to lose her. I don't understand why I had to go through that, she was supposed to be my best-friend. After when we went to different schools, by choice, we drifted. Now despite how I felt in Grade 6, I treat my best-friend like that. I trick her, and I call her names like stupid. I've made her cry too many times. It makes me feel really bad, but I don't know why I don't stop. -


bethany martin: I'm bullied because I'm short and skinny I'm beat up, yelled at ,insulted and its only because I'm not pretty -


Courtney: i used to have this friend and she was reeeeealy funny and kind. we used to go shopping together. one day i went to her house to hang out and we talked about stuff in her room. she said that she had to go to the bathroom so she went out and i waited for her. but when she came back, her mum was with her looking really mad. i was going to ask what was wrong when her mum asked why i said mean stuff to my friend and punched her and kicked her. i had no idea what was going on but i didn't have the courage to say that i didn't do those things to my friend. then, my friend's mum called my mum and told her what happened. my mum was so angry that she picked my up early and she told me not to do it again. the next day, my firend spread around so many rumours about me and no-one wanted to be my friend. then, all the other kids made fun of every single detail about me and pushed me around in the playground. they even wrote bad things about mee that wern't true in the girls' bathroom. i stayed home for 1 week and my friend kept saying rude stuff to me on the computer. i cired alot and spent all my spare days in my bedroom. my mum asked what was wrong and i told her all about the teasing and the punching at school. i then got trasported to anoher school and i have really nice friends now. i still don't know why my friend told so many lies about me. -


Luisa: a few months ago a rumor was spread around my class that i liked this guy who no-one liked much. my class thought that because he liked me even though i didn't like him and he used to talk to me in class and try to get my attention and hang out with me in sport-time. then, the day i found out that rumour, one of my friends came up to me at lunch and asked: "Hey, do you have like, a partner in your class?" from then on, i wanted to keep away from the guy because he was getting annoying. once, me and the guy were walking to the lunch area and he was just talking and talking and talking and i was just trying to get away from him and then one of my friends saw and she came in between us and said: "Oh, you're having a nice chat, are you? So, when's your date?" then all her friends started laughing and i just wanted to run away and cry. i told the teacher about it and she talked about it to the class. she didn't say any names, just saying the situation. then, my class stopped saying the rumour and the guy kind of didn't like me anymore. i'm glad i had the courage to say that to the teacher. i kinda feel proud of myself :) -


Samantha: Im in seventh grade and it is torture to me. This year someone physically hit me. What did I do to them to make them do that to me? I get called fat, ugly, and nobody wants to see my face. The counsler at my school just says to ignore the bullies. I cant ignore somebody if they're physically hitting me. I always sit alone at lunch while everybody else has friends. Apparently, the people in my grade see me as the "weird kid." -


Jannie: One time I got my period and some stupid slut made fun of me :( -


Nekisa: Despite being a victim of bullying myself, I wasn't strong enough to stand up and speak out against the mean comments and actions of others towards other girls that were in the same situation myself. It got to the point that I found that all of a sudden I was the bully. I took the same words and actions that hurt me in the past and turned this same attitude on another girl. I didn't realize what had happened - who I had become - until it was too late. -


-unknownZ: I am going through so much in highschool right now, and its not funny to see my life break down because of 5 girls, that are just straight bitches to me. They bully me emotionally, and exclude me because they think i'm too good for them:( I cut myself, because I cant take the pressure. I get pressure from every way, from school, to being the eldest in the family. i cant take it. The self-confidence I had is slowly fading away, but I'm trying to get it back, but I lost hope. i don't know what to do, sometimes I wish that i was never truly me:( -


Kate: Hey :-) I am almost 50 and i cry still every time I think of my pain in middle school. I don't know if I will ever understand how I became a target. There is no rational, single "reason". Then I went to a very poor, third-world country. I saw big problems. Disease. No sanitation. No food. No education. Death from all sorts of manageable issues. Pain and suffering not limited by age, gender, or quality of character. I knew that the tormentors back home were so SMALL! They did not understand that they could CHOOSE to be kind, instead of causing more pain. The world has too much pain and I choose kindness! I have not always succeeded. But I strive for that mark. I have yet to either confront or forgive my tormentors. It makes me less and I pray someday to be strong enough to shine the light on what they did to me. it will release me. Thank you for letting me share this... Healing comes in steps -


Shea: I pledge to not bully, and to be kind to others! -


Mollie: I thought I had a best friend until I began 6th grade and she decided I wasn't cool enough for her. But instead of just growing apart, she decided to make my life a living hell for 2 years. I was constantly bullied at school and online; told I was hated, a loser, annoying, etc. I believed it for 2 years until I got fed up. I realized that I had other friends but I wasn't utilizing them because I thought I needed to be part of the "cool group." I cut myself off from the girls who bullied me and made friends with girls who WANTED to be my friend. I've never looked back since. I hope younger girls can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If you don't like your situation--change it. You have the power to make your life better. -


April: I was bullied for being short. I had a bff that turned on me and used me as her puppet to show off her friends. She said things to me like midget or an elf, gnome. I moved to a different school a year later and i found greater friends than I ever did. Thank you Mommy and Daddy! Then a new girl also moved in and she....she made dumb rumors about me thinking she was going to be the queen on the school. I simply walked away to hide my tears. Her dad was a business man and moves to places,so the girl moved far far away. After I heard those rumors I didnt say anything because I remembered the Kind Campaign. You helped me, Thank you -


Chloe Billingsley: i have bullied plenty of people and i know that it was wrong and i stopped it myself because i have been on both sides -


Theresa: My so called best friend betrayed me and told my secrets and told rumors about me in the 3rd grade. She turned the school against me. i became suicidal and a cutter. I was cutting on and off. I recently got help this past year and I've finally started to heal -


Kate: Me and my sister never get along. she bullies me constantly and has my whole life. she uses her depression as an excuse for everything, but its been years and she is better now. i just want to have a normal family. my parents love her more, she gets everything she wants. i just wish that maybe once someone would notice that IM upset and crying alone in the bathroom. but no one ever does, because im just the stupid little sister. -


Gwyneth Chelsea Anne: I am in grade 5 after an incident that I embaressed myself infront of my classmates, they start teasing saying poor,stupid, planking girl those really hurt me its like me trap in a sphere of teasing and bad, I was empty no kindness found, at lunch when I go in they already laugh at me I cant take it anymore. I just make lunch at home and eat it at a private section. But I was crying cant stop the emotion.Then after I watch a video here at www.Kindcampaign.com I realized that I just need to be myself and with my family with my side I can just fight the bad fearsome of my classmates teasing me. After the next semester I talk to them that even tough you tease me I dont Care I just need to be myself after that they want them to let me eat with them at lunch I was happy to have them back. So some girls out there be yourself. -


Sierra: I was in grade 4 and i was bullyed by a bunch of people and they would call me ugly and fat andi would have no friends. but that all changed when i went into grade 5 and i got a group of friends and they were my friends until they turned on me and said that i had lied to them when i dident say anything but than i was told that one of the girls i hang out with was making fun of me behined my back...... -


Ashley Lynn: When i was 10 years old this girl would make fun of me. She would say i had a disease and for everyone to keep away from me..... It made me sad that people would do that to me even when i thought she was a good friend. It affected me in a major way. So i hope people would stop the bullying! -


Sierra: I have made fun of people in my past but i am really sorry for what i have done! -


...: I can't say I have been bullied but I know how it feels,just the same. People would pick on me, sometimes tease me or call me names. It wasn't major because most of the time, it came in the course of a friendly conversation. But it hurts... Just because I am not the BEST ATHLETE in town, doesn't mean you have to laugh at me! My old school was like that....kind of like there was no one I could trust. My own BFF would talk about me behind my back but I was so desperate and when she apoligized, I just laughed and forgot it. But it hurts............. My friend was in her garden (3 houses away from mine) with a whole bunch of people there. They were laying some sort of game and she told them all to hurry before I came, not knowing that I was in my own garden, picking roses with my back turned to her. Another day, when I cried so badly because of everything that happened to me that day (insecurity) on her front porch. I was supposed to go into her house for the evening till my mom came back from work. She told me that she did care and she was my friend. I laughed and dried my eyes saying that I was acting. She grinned and rushed ahead inside, while I was left behind, still whimpering. I know it gets worse and I should be thankful and I surely am. I have now moved and am in a different place. Here, even when someone doesn't get along, NO ONE BULLIES THE OTHER. Absolutely no one that I have seen. I am glad to be here and not to face the pressure of middle school and high school in my older school. Bullying is bad, feels bad and ruins lives... Just hang on- KINDness Campaign is going to stop everything! 3 cheers for them! -


Zainab: I am usually last to have the latest things in clothing and in technology. I also happen to be overweight. I try to not be around the other girls who are slim and have everything they want. A lot of girls get pushed out of the 'in' group for not having cool thing or to not be slim as a stick. That's just how it goes in my school. But now I'm trying to not think of the worst. And I'm gonna try to lose weight so I have more self esteem. Thank You Kind Campaign -


G: Freshman year of high school I gained a lot of weight. I don't know if it was from puberty or depression or both but I was not a "skinny" girl. A lot of people made fun of me for it. I remember getting questions on my formspring saying "you shouldn't have your belly button pierced because you're too fat." I also remember one guy told me, "you're really pretty and I would date you if you lost 20 pounds." Junior year, my best friend found a new best friend and together they would make fun of me for being a "fat, ugly, slut." Girl use weight against each other for simple reasons. It's easy to target, and it hurts. The thing is, I've lost 30 pounds since then. I can change my body, but they can't change the fact that the things they did and said made them ugly. They have no idea that all of the hateful things they said are the reason that I now have an eating disorder. I know that my weight loss won't stop the gossip though. They've found other ways to hurt me. I had a rumor about me spread through multiple schools about me having gonorrhea. I know that now that I'm thin, I'll be more of a target for jealous girls. The thing is, when you're being bullied, you never feel good enough. Suicidal thoughts come from feeling hopeless. The bullying needs to stop. -


liz: I wanted to apologize to my friends for cling them fake and bitches -


melissa balyk: i started a rumor about my friend saying that she was pregnant, i am very soory sarah for doing that -


idabelle : i have been hit, kick, push into lockers, but the worst is when they may fun of me for have a dead dad (my dad dead was 9 and know i am 13 i still get made for of for it) i am the littlest in my family and so my mom has to deal with my sister i still have not told my mom i tryed to kill myself and i used to slit my wrist. i have something called Dyslexia and i had ADD i suck have this but it dose not help have to be made fun of all day -


Tyler: i was bullied since the 2nd grade and im in 6th now.People gave me nicknames that will stick with me forevever!They called me rat,b****,and a s***.I sometimes really dont get people one minute they are nice to you and the next they're trashing you behind your back because of a rumor,boy,or plain nothing.They threatened me in so many ways and on the bus they would throw notes to me saying"go kill yourself","your s***",and "your family is going to die",but ive learned that every time i've cried over what the have said to me,had no sleep over notes they have written me and how many times i said i wish i was dead they kids just want that from you! when people call you fat,tall,skinny,or short dont listen to them they're so stupid.to all those people those people that have hurt me for life your fake -


Jessica: I was bullied for not having the latest things; but to me i was happy as long as i had my family by my side. A girl picked on me when i was in drama class just because i didn't look my best but when your fourteen you shouldn't care about what you wear just as long as you have close on your back; she didnt really know me so i dont know why she was mean to me. -

Izzy weinberg: i have a cousin who I've always been there for, and this year she has become such a different person. she makes me cry more than anything else and all i want is so to be free of the torture. i never thought i would be the kind of person to ever think of dying, but i did one day, just wondered if she's even change. i always live in constant fear of her making fun of me or bullying me. this site has really helped me. thank you so much. -


Isabelle : Sorry calling you fat and being mean to you i don't really say that to you i wish i can say this to you. -


Alison: I'm not popular. I'm a skinny short kid who is smart and wears lots of dark colors. I know I'm not Goth or emo but it hurts when someone talks about you and says that you are. It really hurt my feelings. I'm not okay with it but what could I do. But I am not Goth or Emo I am me. -


Hannah: I'm just being me, but not everyone likes that. I don't know what I'm doing differently, but some girls on Youtube are really nice to the prettier and more successful people and really rude to me. I've gotten so hurt that I wanted to fire back at them, and I've even wasted time crying over the mean things that they said, but I remind myself that I am God's child and that I can be one fewer mean girl in the world. After all, other girls are looking up to me. I can't let them down by behaving poorly. -


Lea: I go to the school that Molly and Lauren visited today. This is my truth: At the beginning of this year there was a girl I thought I was friends with. Earlier today she turned on me. She called me a di** and a bi*** and it hurts. So if you read this you who said it to me dont in the future. Remember the golden rule. -


Daphne: Back in Junior High, the girls always call me names like Rikishi (the biggest wrestler in WWE) just because I was bigger and heavier than all the average Junior school girls and the other school mates would just laugh at me. I used to cry alone at my desk and always hopping that one of them would at least understand how hurtful it is to be called names. Until now, I remember clearly every moment they called me names and it gave me bad memories of my Junior high. I never liked my childhood/school days. I often try to forget and forgive but it is so hard. -


Mikayla: Last year (and this year, but more so last year) a girl in my class bullied me and bullied me, but I was never stong enough to speak up. so she would taunt me and tel me things would come out of my cuboard, scared me to to death and scarred my life. I would sit in a corner at school and cry all lunch. I have never explained everything to anyonebecause I was too scared. so now I am brave enough, this is basically what happened. She was my bestie, my BFF, my best bud for life. and then, one day she came to school and said something mean to me. I simply thought she was having a bad day but no. she kept going on about me being the worst person in the world and she started taunting me about scary things. I had a boyfriend at the time and she was jealous so she tried to steal him (she didn't like him, she just wanted to upset me). She took him away and told him lies and bad things about me (I knew this because I was close by when she did this) He eventually rejected me due to all these lies, and became BF and GF with her. Yet, behind his back, she didn't like him at all. She was bossy, mean and a plain bully. i spoke to my teacher about this (I didn't spill EVERYTHING but I told her enough so she would understand) and guess what? she fixed it!.......... sort of. This year I am in a different class to her, but she still bullies me on the bus. Now listen up Olivia. You ruined my life by taunting me and stealing my guy and much more. You bullied me and cheated off me and lied. You were not nice and you still aren't. This is my life story, a sad story that may or may not work out in the end, but if you read this Olivia, remember everything you did, and think, "was that the right thing to do?" -


Meg: I'm one of those girls who always reaches out to my friends. I'm the one to email them, the one to tell them they're beautiful, the one to check up on them and remember birthdays. I'm the one who invites them over or comforts them when they're down. I'm the one who makes an effort towards my friends. I have so many close friends, and one best friend, and they're all amazing. But someday, I'd like one person to ask ME if I'd like to hang out with them that weekend, instead of the other way around. -


Nathalie Campos : I've been bullied before. I never liked how that felt. It felt horrible. I always wanted ti be dead in this world. I was in 6th grade when the bullied started. I thought i could trust my friend, but that was a lie. I told my friend a screct which was who i liked. My friend told everyone in the school. Everyone started to make fun. Like i wasnt pretty for him, or he would never like me. after I've been wanting to leave and killmyself. But i know that wouldnt ever help. -


fatimah: My truth is I am nice -


fatimah: well my school youst to be so kind,but now they are min. -


Linda: Back in my old school, girls hated each other. They fought over boys.I worried if they were going to spread rumors about me. The fights got bad.The teachers soon found out.My friend was pushed to the floor because she used to date a boy and most girls got mad at her because those girls liked him. I tried to stop it, until I thoght that they would get mad at me. so i stayed away, thinking if they would hit ,kick,orpunch each other.But now im in a different school and they are still fighting! -


Cindy: Being unkind to one another is not a new thing. 20 years a girl my own age thought because she was twice my size she could punch me in the face. The worst part is everyone who saw it did nothing to help me. -


Sammy: When i was in Jr high i had a crush on this guy nothing to big but this "friend" of mine told me she had talked to the guy and he said that he really liked me back, well being a brave girl i walked up to him and sat next to him and asked him out. He laughed in my face, i ran out of class and into the girls bathroom and cried a few moments later i heard my "friend" and another girl walk in they where laughing so loudly and i heard my "friend" say "wow how stupid did she look? i can not believe she fell for that." i was crushed i walked out and looked at her her friend looked at me wide eyed, my "friend" looked at me like i was going to kill her honestly i wanted to. but i just told her how mean she was and i walk out. -


veronica: I talk about ppl behind there backs sometimes and im sorry -


D: My Best friend's friend is always bossing her around, using her, and threatning her. I used to b better then that, but she pushed me over the edge and im starting 2 b just like her :( -


Carson: I have been mean. I have been nice. It depends. Sometimes I don't know what to do. People are mean to me. They don't want to work with me. Why? Am I mean all the time? -


no name please: i can be a little sexist, im sorry! -


Claudia: Sometimes i feel the new girl Alexis is taking my best friend away. -


Kellly: I am really sorry to my friend Chauntae after getting in an argument. -


Abbey: I guess lots of girls get bullied in school, but I don't think anyone would have been bullied quite like me. It all started on my first day back at school, when Channelle had told rumors about me again. I was prepared for that though, she always did it. Then even my bestie started believing her! Lianna just randomly turned around and asked me "Did you really do that?" and I replyed "How could you believe that? You know me more than anyone!". She just moved away from my seat. Then when nearly everyone believed Channelle, she sent her friend, Maddison, to pretend they had a fight and I had been there for more than Channelle. I believed her because that's what I was like, naive. I ended up becoming Maddy's best friend. But the next day she put white-out in my hair. And told everyone I had a bad case of dandruff. A few weeks later she told everyone I called her a lesbian, and that she was from hell. I wouldn't do that, I refused to stoop to her level. But when the teacher heard that I may have done that, she told my mum. When my mum heard, she didn't let me go to school for the rest of the week. I never felt more ashamed. When the concert time came, I was over-excited. I had practiced my song over and over again. But when the big night came i had never expected to be sabotaged by Channelle again. When I was ready to sing, she whispered something to Maddy, and then Maddy tripped me over. Well, if I went back in time, I'd know not to introduce myself to Channelle. That's my story. -


Sarah: I think I am a very kind person but I have a habit of putting my footing my month a lot and I usually end up hurting people's feelings on accident but my problem is that I am sometimes to proud to apologize. -


megan: i'm sorry to the people that i hurt there feels -


jessey: sorry i became a bully to you -


Alicia and Rin Phantomhive: When we were little we told our best friends that they were the ugliest thing in the world, because I thought it would make people like us more but they don't. We hope u the best Vastion, Michelle, Tyler, Keith, Bill, Kimiko, and Vampy........were truly sorry..... -


Rachel: my bestfriend is a backstabber. i used to be too, but that was a long time ago and my motto has been for awhile "if you wouldn't say it in their presence don't say it at all." i thought my bestfriend had changed too, but i was wrong. she's constantly telling my secrets and telling people that no one likes me and whenever someone insults me, instead of standing up for me, she agrees. if she hates me that much, why does she pretend that she loves me so much? she doesn't understand how badly it hurts to know your bestfriend since 5th grade (we are in high school now) does that to you. and then she has the nerve to tell everyone that IM a bad friend, when really i keep her secrets and i dont say bad things about her. sure every once and awhile i will spill a secret or say something bad about someone so im not saying she's the only guilty one here. but i just wish she knew how it felt. -


Lauren: I'm sorry for every girl and boy I hurt. I only do that because I'm bullied a lot. -


Samantha - calgary: I am sorry to all the boys I was mean to -


Ailish: We had a little group of friends and we had like a code of honour in some way. One of the rules was everyone has to agree. Three of us wanted to have a new member but the other girl didn't want to. She started to become really mean and we didn't know what to do. We decided to scrap the group and she asked why. We almost lost the friend we wanted in the group because of the other girl. But we sorted it out and we have forgiven her. She NEVER talks to us anymore and we don't know why. -


Isabelle: i had a childhood friend in school, at first we liked each other , but the next day, she started being mean to everyone, including me, but now we are in 6th grade, we still don't like each other, were kind of friendly rivals but she's still being mean to everyone, i mean it's not that i hate her, it's just that, maybe if she changed her attitude, maybe i would like her better -


J from Colorado: Dear Becky, I'm sorry for teasing you. I thought it would make me cooler by belittling you. 20 years later and it still haunts me that I did that to you. I can't imagine how it must haunt you. Again, I'm sorry. -


Alexa: I've been bullied since I first got in school, on TV I always say stories about how boys bully and never saw anything about girls being the bad guys, almost only the victums, so it confused me when girls were bullying ME, as I got older and my interests matured I noticed that girl bullying was becoming more common in the media, but I still felt like I was doing something wrong, I never heard stories about bullying from my favirote stories, American Girl, Magic Treehouse, Disney Princesses, none of them ever said that they were bullied, there were evil stepmothers and mean older sisters but.. that's it... I thought for a long time that it was my fault, that for some reason I just wasn't.. NORMAL... at night I used to try to come up with causes for not being "normal", that I was actually from a race of vampires or something, but the older I got the less I could comfort myself with that kind of fantasy, it was so bad that from fifth through seventh grade I contemplated suicide, guidance counslers didn't even talk to me and teachers were half of the problum, every day I went home crying because of the girls and what they did to me, it wasn't all calling names either, I had my things stolen, broken, stepped on,I'm lucky enough to say no one ever punched me or anything but I was terrified that they eventually would, mean girls never went down in numbers, I remember when I was little I was only bullied by one or two girls, but it seemed like each year in school that number doubled or trippled, by the time I was in seventh grade I had so many enemies that I felt very alone, even my former "freinds" had gone to the dark side and left me all alone, my one true freind was at another school, so I felt like I had no one, the worst part though wasn't the name calling, it was making me try to be who I wasn't so I would blend in, I tried to do things I didn't like and I tried to like them too, girls at my school were into cooking and sewing, so I bought cookbooks and tons of fabric but I wasn't interested enough in either to be good, I tried photography and was even in band even though that was miserable, anything that I overheard the mean girls talking about I tried to pretend I liked but still it didn't seem to help, eventually I accepted that no one would like me and was atleast me, the bullying got so bad that I had to be pulled out of school, homeschooling though is the best thing that's ever happened to me, since I left the mean girls scene I've become a writer, I have an online fanbase in the thousands, I'm even preparing my first book for publication, the thing I've always been teased about most is the fact that I'm a nerd, I read books during recess and was always talking about "strange" things, mermaids, vampires, faeries, and Japanese anime is the absolute best, but now I'm proud of my nerdiness, I go to anime conventions twice a year and make tons of freinds, there are no mean girls at anime conventions, atleast none that I've ever met, I'm proud of being a nerd, I'm proud of studying werewolves instead of studying reality TV stars, I'm proud that my best freind is my mom, and I'm finally proud of who I am, my mom and I joke that the people I meet now are so nice, that everyone should watch anime so they wouldn't be so mean, but the important thing is that I went from the brink of suicide, crying my eyes out everyday, to never crying anymore and having so much to live for, all by escaping mean girls and finding my own purpous, my own path, just imagine, if there were no mean girls to begin with, what could people REALLY accomplish? -


Calypso: I was allways bullied and pushed aruond at my after program by a girl named Kassy I allways told her that she was so unkind and unfair and that she was the most rude person in the world im in fith grade now im home scholled im ten and lonly please help me see the light I wish could be like you guys -


sofy: i dont have any girl friends most of my friends are male, i guess girl dont like me because im shy and i like things that girls dont like anime or videogames -


Ashley: I'm sorry for bullying you all through elementary school and saying we would be friends the end of the year and never calling -


Christina: Dear Raleigh, I am so sorry that I ever talked about you behind your back. I'm so glad that we are still best friends and I love you so much! -


Mary: My experiences with female bullying made me skip school some days and have a one on one with the principal to try to remove them from my school life. Even though the next year I had peace at school with some more girls, most of my friends were guys since they're less judgmental. I moved away the year after that. This new place had more people respect me last year until the end. I dropped out of some stupid show and everyone after that just looked at me in a funny way. Some people got over that this year thankfully. However I now am being attacked here in minor ways. Just simple ostracizing which I've had since 1st grade so I am used to it. People say I'm nice, but if I am why am I not treated nicely? I hear there's a bunch of mean people here, I avoid the ones said to be mean since I want nothing to do with it, and had to find out some more of them on my own. Two of the ones I found don't want me to be with the people I like. I only really have one or two people I actually can trust this year. High School can suck I guess, but it shouldn't have to be over a bunch of jerks who want to make you feel bad. I personally want more understanding in this world. If people knew everyone's backgrounds they'd be treated differently. I am all for the the Kind Campaign, Lady Gaga wanting the president to make an anti-bullying law, and everyone like it. :) It needs to stop, and stop soon! I and I think everyone should be able to accept they're all weird and different in their own ways, good ways. -

Anonymous: In eighth grade everyone was worried about what high school would be like. I was worried that once we got to high school i'd be replaced or disregarded. My friend M* and I were getting very close and I was concerned that her other best friend L* that I was not very close with would try and destroy that. In middle school I constantly felt isolated even though I had people all around me. M*, L*, and I were all in the same math class when L* noticed I had some type of scar on my arm. After lunch people started coming up to me asking me why I cut myself, etc. I thought to myself "What the hell are they talking about?" I then found out that L* saw a burn that I had on my arm and decided to start a rumor that I cut myself just to make me look like a Looney. - City

Nicole : A specific group of girls has been mean to me for the last two years at school. We used to play tennis together on our high school team. I quit the team last week after I found out one of the girls told our whole team that I do drugs and sleep around...the truth? I've smoked one cigarette in my life and I’m a virgin. Everyone on the team listens to her though so they all believe the things she says about me. I am tired of the looks I get every day and the way they make me feel so I told my mom I hate tennis now so that she won’t ask questions as to why I quit the team. I love tennis and I wish I was still playing. I don’t even know why they don't like me. I just hope it gets better one day. - City


Casey : I am scared to go to school. I tell my mom I’m sick a lot so that I won't have to go. I just hate trying to look a certain way to try and fit in. When I don’t try, these girls make fun of me like "oo casey looks like a boy! and her name is a boy’s name too" and when I do put on make-up and look cute they still make fun of me and say "oo casey decided to play dress up today!" I can't win. - City

It’s like I can't help it or something. - City

Ill forgives you all for not understanding because you don't know any better. You just see this black dot at your school who likes to act really tough. Well, I’m not so tough and I’m told that on a daily basis. - City

Barbie : I was a child who was raised with teasing and a lot of laughter. I then learn from my father who was a pro. Here is one example: He use to ask me, when we were at the beach,"Which bathroom stall is your mother seated?" I would point it out to him a bit confused why he entered the woman's bathroom. Then I just watched him in action as he showed me a frog and then tossed it under the stall at his wife. She then screamed and yelled, "Oh Bill?" Then my dad ran out of the women's bathroom laughing. Well, I then thought it was funny and followed in his footsteps. I had a nice friend down the street who I invited over and we went down to the canal. I had my plan of finding a frog and having my fun. We went floating down the canal in our swimsuits and I was looking for a frog. She had no idea of what I thought was funny. So anyways, I found the frog and I stuck it down the front of her swimsuit. It was jumping uncontrollably that she could not get it out. I was rolling on the ground laughing. Then she started crying and that is when I tried to help her get it out. My stomach hurt so bad from laughing. She was mad at me, but I did not really think it was all that bad. I just thought it was funny. My mom then pointed out to me, "How would you feel ,Barbie, if someone did that to you?" I said," I would not like it." She then said, "I know you think it is harmless, but you are really being cruel." So to this day, I am still very sorry for what I did and that I was only doing it for a laugh, but in turn I hurt my friend and she think I was much of a friend. - City


Madeline : A group of girls my freshman year decided that I looked like a duck. They used to quack at me in the hallways. I don’t think they realized how self conscious that made me. I hated walking to class. - City


Id rather not say... : I heard about this campaign from a friend of mine and I decided to check it out. I have to say, after reading all of these stories within this website and thinking about this issue, I have realized that I am the girl causing the drama within my group of friends. I always talk behind my friends backs and gossip about "what she's wearing" or "who she hooked up with last weekend" I know that a lot of the fights that go on with my girl group are because of the things I say and do. I’m sure I have made some people feel pretty bad about themselves too. I have said some things to some of my friends that I wish I could take back. It’s true- insecurities can get the best of us girls. I don’t know why we are like this but I am going to try my best to change. I don’t want to be like this. I am a good person. I guess for any girl reading this that likes to start the drama and rumors in her school- I want you know that I have been there...I am there. But It’s not worth it. Lets stop this cycle together. - City


Brooke : Every day when I go to school it's a reminder to myself that I don't fit in. I feel like no one likes me. I sit by myself sometimes at lunch because there's know one that I feel can be a friend to me. People don't take me seriously because they think I’m "to nice". I can't stand up for myself to mean girls or boys and I have a very hard time saying no to people when they ask me for things. I feel so alone. I just want to be liked. - City


Natalie : Sometimes I feel like I don’t want to wake up in the morning because my girls friends are always ganging up on me. It doesn’t seem like a huge deal--girls being like this to each other-- but it matters. It matters a lot and I feel the effects of girl-against-girl "crime" every day. - City


Shandy : I told my friend that she was a slut and that she would never amount to anything and that everyone hates her and talks about her behind her back. I told her this because she hooked up with a guy that I like. I still feel like I had a right to be upset with her because she was my friend and she knew that I liked him. But I will never forget how gross I felt after I said that to her. In my mind it all made sense and I felt justified for saying it but as those words came out of my mouth I immediately realized the weight of the words I was using against her. I have always felt bad about saying that to her but I still feel frustrated that she did that with the boy I like. I don’t know who is right and who is wrong but I don’t think that matters. At the end of the day, we both hurt each others feelings and that is the problem right there--that as girls, we were so quick to turn on each other...it was so easy for us to do. I don’t understand why we are like that. - City

Roxy : I had a best friend in 6th grade. We did everything together and we were so different yet so alike. I had another friend from the boys and girls club I went to, named Anna. Anna didn't like Savanna (my 6th grade beastie) so she started talking trash about her in front of me. I didn't want to stand up for Savanna since I was scared of rejection and the possibility of Anna saying things about me too. So I agreed and added on to the things she said about Savanna. Soon I was convinced that Savanna was all of those things that we have said behind her back. So one day me and my other friends decided to ditch her, I still felt unsure about that decision though, and she caught up and asked why we were leaving her. So we returned to where we had left her, the playground, and we sat her down on the swings and said nasty things to her face. I didn't say much since I still cared about her. Instead I ended up taking her wallet, which I was supposed to hold for her, from my backpack and came up with the genius plan to hide it(sarcasm). We buried it in the sand near the slide but a random girl that we didn't like for some reason saw us and told the crying Savanna what we had done. Savanna was still sitting on the swings crying when the girl came back with her sandy wallet. I know what happened after we buried it because once we left I told my other friends that I needed to go to the restroom but instead I darted for the playground. I was going to secretly give her back wallet back, but I was still contemplating, scared that the other girls might see me and turn on me as well. That’s when I saw what the random girl we didn't like had done....I wish I was the random girl no one liked, because I know that I'd be doing the right thing. It was really immature of us to do and say such things but because of that she ceased coming to the boys and girls club. We were such good friends that she first came to the girls and boys club, although she didn't need it at all, just so she could spend more time with me. I truly regret those things that I had done. I used to see her in high school, until I switched do different schools, and I always avoided her out of guilt. I wished that I had asked for her forgiveness because I know that if I hadn't done what I had done, then we would still be best friends. But I’m kind a happy for her that she's not my friend anymore because if I had done such a thing then I wouldn't deserve a friend like her and I wouldn't want her to be with a bad friend like me. The even sadder thing is that if it came down to it, I would probably end up doing something like that again, that's why I’m making an effort to change that. I will no longer act as a double agent friend, talking behind everyone's back just to please everyone. And hopefully I will be successful in achieving that. Hopefully I will truly be worthy of the good friends I have now. - City


Alhia: I had a rumor spread about me that said I was a lesbian and I’m not the only reason it was spread because we were playing spin the bottle and even though it landed on a girl I still had to kiss her (worst experience ever for me) so all of us in the group promised we would not tell anyone well guess what happened one of the girls spread that horrible rumor about me......*sigh* - City

Rather not say.. : In 4th grade, I was chubby. And people would constantly remind me of that- I developed an eating disorder. in 2nd-4th grade I had no friends and was constantly picked on- I developed depression, that I still suffer from and I am going to be a freshman in high school. The bullying finally stopped in 6th grade and I was fine. but then in 7th grade, I was stupid and tried to smoking because "everyone was doing it". The people I did it with, nothing ever happened to them. But me, was made fun of and lost all my friends. to this day I’m still made fun of for this. & now, this year, 8th grade, all the upperclassmen in high school hate me. High school use to be what I looked forward to in life and now I don’t want to go. People say I’m a whore, that I’m a waste of life, and that I’m ugly. I try to not think about it but I always do. They tell me there are so many things wrong with me. I have to go to therapy for cutting because of them. I told my "best friend" that I cut myself, and she told my whole school. Now I get called crazy. I don’t know when all this will stop, but I’m hoping soon. I don’t want to go to school; I don’t want to even leave my room sometimes because of these things. & they only do it to me, so does that mean the things they say are partially true? - City


Patty Petelin: Hello. I am twenty-eight years old and while I no longer experience much of what is being written here, it is not foreign to me either. I am a teacher and I work with young women every day, and sometimes I still feel like I am fifteen again. I have not yet seen the film, but if I could just share something with the wonderful young women who created it and those who are writing their stories here: Girls are not born in conflict with each other, as men are not natural born comrades. When each one of you reflects on your experiences with other girls in your lives, I would ask you to consider these experiences and how they might relate to power. Consider that women are in conflict/competition with each other because they are taught that personal power must be bestowed upon them, that it is something outside of them. When you live in a world where ANY man -- handsome, ugly, old, young, smart, idiotic, etc... -- has the power to judge a woman's worth, it is not hard to see why girls compete for power: because they still believe it is something someone else gives to them. Fortunately, I came to understand this truth as I grew older and I can say that the best relationships in my life right now are my friendships with other women. This is because women, when they are not competing for some make-believe source of power, are the most amazing creatures on this planet. Yes, be kind to each other. This is simple. But most importantly, know that the ONLY TRUE SOURCE of confidence, respect, power and worth comes from within. This is scary because it means that we are responsible for how we feel about ourselves. But it is also freeing. It will free you as it has freed me. - City


Kate : I have been a victim of girls starting rumors and saying hurtful things. More than once, little personal things about myself (which, I might add, was irresponsible of me to tell) were spread around the school. I’ve been called fat by certain girls more than once, and am sometimes told that I "take up the whole hallway." This is obviously just a silly hyperbole, but that really hurt me when I found out about it. Another form of girl-against-girl abuse which I have witnessed was just this year. In the middle months of school, I began to really like this guy. I told my friends about it, in the excitement of the realization. They, in turn, told me in one night that they liked him as well. That was not the worst of it. A week or so later, one of the friends asked the guy out. I was crushed and cried when I got home because my friend actually rubbed it in my face after the closing hours of school. I cannot believe I just said that, but it is present that girl-against-girl crime can be found in many ways. I think the Kind Campaign is a great way to get girls to realize that people are people, and we all have feelings as humans. Whether a person likes you or not, opinions should be kept to themselves. Thanks to this campaign, there is hope for girls everywhere! xoxoxoxo ~Kate - City

Anonymous : This girl started dating my best friend and at first I thought she was so nice and friendly. But after a while, I found out that she had been talking about me to my best friend and trying to turn him against me who really hurts because, we've been friends for so long and she just came into this equation. I can totally understand why she'd be uncomfortable [even though there is no reason for it], but I don’t think she went about it the right way. Pretending to be okay with this friendship and then turning against me behind my back when I tried so hard to make her feel welcomed into the group. She still gives me that uncomfortable feeling but i've refused to stoop to that level. I'd regret being a bitch, I'll never regret being kind. - City

Anonymous: I have very much been hated by all girls my entire life I never knew why, EVER in 1st grade I had one girl come up to me and say "No one likes you go home". ...that's exactly what I did I stayed home, for 2 weeks I locked myself in my bed room and wouldn't come out ...that was just 1st grade now that I am in high school I have been called so many names, had so many rumors spread about me I don't listen.As I walk down the halls, the girls whispering to one another I hear them say slut, whore , hoe but I do what I have to, just keep walking, paying no attention to their mean remarks. I just wait until lunch where I have my friends with me ...i guess you could say I have a lot of friends but there ONLY guys Ive never had a best friend that's a girl NEVER. I never knew what it felt like to have a sleep over or go shopping with my girlfriends. Some girls say It’s because I steal their boyfriend others because I am perfect, but good grades is not perfect. I can’t seem to get any girl to even talk to me with out them already thinking I am a bitch thats not perfect at all in my eyes.

Anonymous: All my life I never really got along with girls. It wasn’t that I ignored them and wanted nothing to do with them, but I did like to hang out with the guys because that was the only place I felt accepted. When I went to high school, playing pickup basketball was deemed as me trying to steal their boyfriends. In truth, I just loved the sport and the guys were the only ones that would play. Because of that I was shut out from the girls and therefore from their guys too. not only was I not wanted by the girls, but the guys weren’t allowed to hang out with me either. after that the girls tried to befriend me, because "friends don’t steal friends boyfriends." the fact that I didn’t really want to be their friend only made things worse and gossip started to spread. To this day I still don’t trust girls, and won’t let myself have one for a best friend. - City

lauren: As I’m writing this I’m going through a rough day with my supposed best friend who I've been friends with my whole life. I honestly can't even remember the last time we were actually "good" friends none the less "best" friends... It’s possible that we were 5 and under because once school started our friendship was never the same. I’m almost 18 now. And I know how pathetic on my part it may look that I’m still friends with someone who treats me as badly as she does... My 'friend' uses people, especially me because I've been around the longest and I guess she thinks I'll always be there. When we make plans she conveniently ends up bringing other people into what we had planned and I get left out. She realizes the faults in other girls that have gotten between her and a guy she liked but when it comes to guys I like she talks to them non-stop and even talks badly about me to them just so she can ruin my relationships. She's a constant bragger and meanwhile has everyone either making fun of her or them talking gossip about her...these same people she'll be "best friends" with a week after the gossiping stops because she's dying to be accepted by these people. Only two people have ever really hurt me and that was my first boyfriend and her. He's not in my life anymore and I just wish it was as easy to kick her out of my life like I did him. In the end, I guess it is easy but I’m too afraid. I’ve been doing this same game with her my whole life. I don't know anything else. And although I've cried because of how she's treated me today, I'll be fine with her tomorrow....and I hate it. More than anything I hate the fact that I can easily stand up for myself to anyone and everyone else but her. - City

You are not alone. I’ve been there and so have millions of other girls. I understand the hurt you are feeling and I hope you can try to see past the situation with your friend. There is so much to live for. I know when you are in these situations it feels like your whole world, but your whole world is waiting for you. The girls who were mean to me in middle school-- I don't even know where they are in the world right now... And one of them is a good friend of mine now... at 23, I can say that I have an amazing support system of girl friends and that is because I have been through what you are going through right now. You are full of worth and don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Bobbi : My school days were filled with pain and sadness. I hated them. I always felt fat and ugly and unimportant. And I had some girls who were incredibly mean to me. Now, in my 50s, I have reconnected with a friend from my teens. She told me that I was popular and everyone loved me - especially boys. What a shock that was! I can't help but wonder how it would have been if I hadn't spent so many years feeling bad about myself and listening to others' comments about me. The women in my life today bring me such comfort, joy, understanding. It took me a long time to learn the depth of connection women can have. I’m happily married, but could never live without my girlfriends. I want to tell the young girls out there that you can start developing these loving and trusting relationships now. Learn to love and respect yourself, and approach others with kindness. It comes natural when you feel good about yourself. And surround yourself with others like you. When you're a nice girl, it should come back to you. And if it doesn't, know that it's not about you; it's about the other girl. Mean girls are unhappy. They are insecure, jealous, and scared. Feel bad for them. But know that you don't deserve anything short of respect and kindness. Don't accept mean treatment, and don't do it to others. Be an example to others. Don't wait many more years before you learn to enjoy the friendship of girls. - City


Denise : In sixth grade, I was victimized by almost all the girls in my grade. They would all run away from me on the playground, in a big group. There were a handful of instigators but the rest followed along. It carried into 7th grade. It was a horrible time in my life and at 52 years old, I can still feel the pain of their betrayal and general meanness. Despite this, or because of it, I grew into a strong, independent woman with national acclaim. We will never know how much more I could have become if I had not been victimized. - City


Anonymous: My friend , lies. I honestly don't understand why. She exaggerates(alot), and lies about things. She tries to explain, but the reasons she gives me, do not make sense. I don't understand. I don't think she understands that she is not the only one I talk to. She doesn't understand that I have ways to talk to people she lies about. But I can, any many times I have proved her wrong and she admits she lies. She still wants to talk to me, but I have nothing to say to her if she cannot be honest with me. It is sad, that now I cannot take information from her without having to think, is she lying to me? - City

R: You came to the program I’m at the other day (PCC) and it made me open my eyes fully in a long time. When I was younger I was abused by a close family friend I called my 'sister' and that always made me wary of people and how it was socially accepted to act. I never really had friends through elementary school and had (and still have) no self confidence whatsoever, when I got to middle school it never really got better; I was teased and made fun of. Finally in 8th grade I felt like I had some friends, people who had my back and would stand up for me... once again I was wrong... my 'friends' backstabbed me and even had their boyfriends call me on the phone telling me I was worthless. ive cut and burned myself before and once I took every pill I could get my hands on in my house, I like life but I can never seem to fully rise above and want to countinue living... I hope I can overcome the drugs and darkness but I can never see myself with a future - City


Marley : Sometimes I think the worst hurt a girl can experience is silence. no name-calling, no physical violence, just being ignored. People looking through you, talking over you, pretending you don't exist. every time I say hello to a girl I’ve known since kindergarten and she can pretend I’m not there, that she can't see or hear me, breaks my heart into pieces. by not saying a word, these girls that ignore me make me feel stupid, fat, small, unimportant, unloved, and undeserving of respect. That, I think, is the worst thing. All I can say is, thank god I just graduated from high school. girls, please know that you are important, and beautiful, and YOU DESERVE RESPECT. I can't tell you to not let them affect you, because I know it's hard, so hard, no matter what people tell you. but know that you are more than this, that one day you will wake up and these people that torture you will be out of your mind and not of your concern ever again. carry the hope that it WILL be better someday, maybe not in the outside world, but within yourself. Have hope, and know that someone far away is sending you love :) - City

Anonymous: I had a bunch of girl friends, but I don't know what exactly happened to us all. I kinda wonder what things would have been like had we not all split up. Or at least, I from them. I feel like it may have been meant to be, because things would have turned out really differently and things are beautiful in my life now. And so I’m happy in that respect. My friends and I were so close and then we drastically just split up overnight. It’s kinda sad. I don't know what we'd even do now if we were to ever talk or get together. I just don't know if we're even the same people anymore. It’s kinda sad when you think about how like best buds we were and now It’s been three years. I did send a letter to the one girl, apologizing. She wrote me back saying it was all cool and stuff. And that was that. And we just, I guess after so long, just don't feel the need to communicate or something. Honestly, it would be so werid. Just about as weird as talking to my older sister. But that's a different story. But maybe not. Who knows? I may have been mad with them for a while. Actually, more like, probably yes. It was so much drama. It was like a jerry springer episode. I definitely did some stuff to embarrass myself, that's for sure. I thought these other girls would be my friends. I thought it would be fine. Then it wasn't. And then I was bored and lonely and depressed and too undisciplined to drag myself to college classes, a lot of the reason was because I didn't know anybody and was super unbelievably insecure. I had less friends than I did in highschool in which I was definitely insecure. And that's embarrassing. And then you run into people you knew from highschool and It’s like dejavu. I'll never go to a reunion! lol. Joke. But anyway... so it was a little rough. It was weird not having friends. Not having these people around I relied on. It made me feel like the biggest loser in the world. I'd see these people, and you'd know they were thinking, what happened? Wondering what went down. What did I do to make them not want to talk to me anymore? And I'd wonder if anyone knew what happened. Had they told people, our other friends and stuff, what I did? How I went behind her back. How I totally was seeing the world's biggest jerk and not telling her. Like lying to her. I mean, he was the world's biggest lamo. I mean, huge lamo. Like, so embarassing I went over there and partied with them and stayed around and kept coming around. I wasn't cool with any of them and he was embarrassing. I didn't see it. I thought he was cool for a second. And then he became uncool fast. I should have never talked to him again and called them up and been like we need to talk right now and I’m so sorry. But I didn't see it. It’s so sad it all went down like that. I mean, we all talked about how we were going to be sticking together forever and all that. And burning myself out didn't do anything to help the college endeavor. or any endeavor for that matter. If I'd have just gotten any type of degree. Even if I wouldn't have been able to do anything with it, it would have been just one accomplishment. Instead, It’s only half accomplised and that's not exactly the best. It would have been paid off by now. Most likely not being used, I'd assume, but you never know. But it was like 13th grade and I had no one to talk to. When I was little I used to be able to make friends like it was nothing. I wish I could have just done that then. Even, do that now. But that's not exactly my main concern. I have one best friend and my husband is the love of my life. (I know my main concern, really, is God. But other than that, I don't know. We both just work and look forward to a house and kids someday. And of course health and happiness. Some prosperity wouldn't hurt either. Who am I kidding? Everyone wants to prosper. We'd love a beautiful home in a beautiful place with nice cars and a pool and a big bathroom and a big living room and master bedroom like you see on hgtv. And we'd have our careers that make us happy and feel fulfilled and we'd be skinny and in shape... But then we'd want more wouldn't we? It’s not about things and that's something you learn from God. But anyway...) But about my old friends... what would they think about that I got married? I’m sure they'd be happy for me. Things were just rough before. And that's the conclusion of this story. But I picked up a Bible and my life has changed and It’s unbelievably amazing. There's many out there who will say that the Bible's just a book and Jesus was just a man. But that's really not the case. I want to try not to get into how much help God is because that's not what this is supposed to be about, but if you're looking for a kindness movement It’s through Jesus Christ alone. I really just wonder from time to time about them. Like every so often a thought or two will pass through my mind of something we did or something like that. I don't know what it would be like if we ever talked. May be it would be fun or something. That is, if they don't think badly of me. I don't know, but I suspect I said some stuff that might have been accusing. May be just plain out not nice. I felt they were out to harm me. But considering they called and wanted to meet at a restaraunt and talk... It seems I was imagining things. But I really was convinced of that for a long time. What a doosy of a story. I’m pretty sure that everything's put behind us, It’s just a sad story. - City


K: Dear friends, I don't understand why the nicer and more understanding I am to you . . . . the more ungrateful and cold you become. Every few years I get a close group of girlfriends and every few years they cycle out. If you need me I’m there. When I need you there is no one around, no phone calls are answered, and no responses to texts. Why is it that women run to women when they are single and push us away when they have a man in their life? I give because I want too. But I would love to receive the same kindness when I need someone to be there. - City


Leyna : Who hasn’t been called a name before? Who hasn’t called somebody a name before? Possibly the problem isnt the other people It’s you too by showing kindness we can all change the world just on girl at a time. another key is not letting it get to you... your strong and independent and you know who you are and what you look like so why let other people judge you? You always have to remember that to someone.. You’re the most beautiful thing to ever lay eyes on :) - City


R: When I was in 7th grade, I was tormented on the school bus because I was chubby. It wasn't the kids who were teasing me that was so awful, but the kids who were my "friends" and didn't stand up for me that was the worst. I learned how to deal with it by ignoring the bullies and then trying to kill them with kindness in the following years of high school. Oddly enough it worked and I ended up being friendly with 2 of the 4 of them although we never talked about those days on the 7th grade bus. I also learned a valuable lesson on standing up for people who are being persecuted for one reason or another. 7th grade was 25 years ago, and I have been a community organizer fighting for social justice through most of my adult life. When I heard about The Kind Campaign, I actually cried. It’s about time that we start teaching girls that we need to take care of each other & build each other up - not tear each other down. To the girls who have posted their painful stories here: it DOES get better. Always remember, "This too shall pass". - City


Baby : I miss you… - City


M: In high school a girl who was supposed to be my bestfriend thought it would be funny to tell everyone she knew, my biggest secret. I suffered from depression at the time and cut myself a lot. She decided to tell everyone she knew that I made it for attention and to get sympathy because otherwise no one would like me. For 2 years that was all I was in high school. People who say horrible things to me in the halls and laugh when I was around. When I wore anything black people would make comments like "oh, are those your "cutting" clothes." All because of that one girl did. I would tell my mom I felt sick just to avoid going to school. I felt so betrayed and so inscure that I stopped eating. Today, even though I no longer starve myself or cut, my depression and eating problems still bring me pain. Though high school is behind me, the pain and self-hate I developed during those years stayed with me long after. However, some good did come from it all. My parents found out through me school guidance department about my depression and got me the help I needed. I learned who were my true friends and those bonds strengthened. To me, my experience showed that everything happens for a reason. - City


Chanel : Back in 7th grade, I was having my 13th birthday party and I invited a few of my close friends. There was one girl, let's call her D, that I didn't invite and she heard that I didn't invite her or a few of her friends that I hardly knew. For the next few days, we didn't really talk. One day, one of D's friends came into my class and gave me a note and walked right out. I opened it and it was a letter saying how much of a b!tch I was, and it had mean drawings of me. She said the birthday gift that I gave her was sh!t and that I could keep it; (I gave her expensive pink diamond earrings). I found out that it wasn't only her that drew/wrote those mean things, but most/all of the girls in her class at the time. Girls that I thought were my friends wrote that stuff. All because I didn't invite her to my birthday party. To this day, she still tries to be nice to me and talk to me, but I turn a cold shoulder. She truly doesn't understand how much she hurt me... - City


Mae: Back in 5th grade there was a kid named Matt I had known since preschool. he tormented me. he took every failure of mine and turned it into another sign that I was not worth the life I was wasting. he turned the whole grade around me. my closest friends hated me. I wanted to kill myself and the only thing stopping me was my mom and my nephew. I didn't want them to cry over me. I’m now a freshman with depression issues and social issue. - City


Anon/ : Im in 6th grade. a girl in my class is a bully, she doesn’t seem like it but she is. I like her when shes nice and she likes me, we used to be really close. I feel like I’m betraying all me friends when I hang out with her because she hurt each and every one of them. She gets mad and treats me awfully, I’m scared of her. We went on an excursion to the bakery today. I was kneading some dough and she step back and she got it on her shirt. She blamed me of course and went all silent.. I had to clean it of her shirt. I don’t know what to do. If I hang out with my real friends she might go crazy and start a rumor and scare me, but I want to be with my real friends. The ones that treat me well and never hurt me. - City


Kind Girl : There was a girl named Tatyana that worend my life and I always hated her now since you came to my school I have taken a pledge to always stick up for my friends and now I think about it I forgive her but I am thinking if I should forgive her or not I don’t know what to do so iam never going to forgive her ever again because she never said sorry or I was a Jerck so now I fell bad for her that she does this to people and I will always help people who have backstaped friends and I will try to comfort them for now on thanks Kind Campaign - City


Katherine : I carpooled with a girl from my class in kindergarten up and we went to school up until 8th grade (and are still in school together now). We were very close but she would always get so angry with me for the strangest, unreasonable excuses. Our other friends would not invite her to a sleepover or like the boy she likes and she wouldn't even care! As I grew in elementry school, I learned to just take what she did to me. I never got mad back at her- I just waited until she would calm down. But the anger got more frequent. She would talk behind my back with other friends infront of me and ignore me. I knew I shouldn’t be friends with her, but whenever she wasnt mad, she was so fun and nice! And we had such a background together. There have also been about 5 other girls in elementary school that didn't even know me but were constantly mean because I wouldn't fight back (I was too nice!). Towards freshman year, one of the other girls I was really close the time "removed" me from their group. I didn’t understand why they didn’t want to be my friend- I was always there for them. This year they started a rumor that I was a lesbian. It’s so hard for me to try and fight it instead of just taking; I wish everyone would just be kind. Things would be so much simpler. - City


Gwen : Middle school wasn't the best time of my life. In 8th grade, things went from bad to worse. Up until then, I was a 'girly girl'. I loved pink and babies and girly things. But in 8th grade, I didn't feel like myself. I felt that I didn't fit in and I didn't feel comfortable in my own skin. I felt comfortable when I wore combat boots and corsets rather than pin mini-skirts and stilettos. In other words, I became a goth. I fell in love with the gothic subculture. But not everyone else did. My (girl) friends would say things like "She looks like an emo wannabe" or "Nell, why do you wear all black? Did somebody die?" People would turn their backs on me and laugh; I felt unaccepted and unwanted. My friends drifted away and I felt like I had no one. I fell into depression and would cry for hours at a time, sometimes for a reason, and other times for no reason. Everyone thought that I was cutting myself, and I never did and never will. It’s been two years since (I was 13 I’m now 15). I’m still 'Goth' and I love it. I’ve found friends that accept me for who I am and wouldn't want me any other way. I wish those girls could have accepted me, goth or not... - City


Abigail : In 5th grade, I finally got the chance to dye my hair. I had always wanted to try it, just to see what it was like. I’ve also always thought people with black hair are beautiful, so naturally that was the color I chose to change my light brown to. I thought it looked great, and felt very pretty. I did that over a weekend, and only told 3 of my friends. When I got to school on Monday, everyone in the grade had already heard it. My friends had went behind my back to do that. Not only that, but there was multiple rumors going around about me. One of them that would always stick with me through the years was that I came home with my sister at 2 AM one night to find my mom drunk, and that she said yes to dying my hair because of it. That not only insulted me, but also my mother. They all said I was suicidal and emo. They all talked behind my back and gave me weird glances. No one even showed me a kind smile when I brought in a self-baked cake for the class party. That ruined the next 3 years of my school life, and put me under a lot of stress. I found out a girl I trusted with that secret had started all the rumors. Never again will I share any of my life with anyone. - City


Marilyn : Hi I’m from a small town with a small amount of people in it and this happens to be my senior year. I’ve realised something we girls in my school have never got along. There was one fight between two girls where one pulled out the others real hair, it was not pretty. Anyway I have been in a fight with girls myself but most of it was always my best friends. It sucks to fight with friends even more so when I’m stuck in the middle of two vary good friends fighting. It’s not right I know, but this happens every year. So far no fight and I’m hoping for no fighting this year. It would be nice to just live and be happy with fellow girls who know your struggles and hopefully my friends and I well make this year better then most. I love my friends and wouldn't trade them or any girl at my school for anybody really. For the reason of it being such a small school, but being a small school there is no room so we mostly pin against each other. It’s hard at times, but I have a good feeling about this year and I well try my best to keep my spirts up even if is hard to bear. - City


Mary Anne : Dear Emma (my daughter), How I see myself in you. You are starting jr. high and I know you are scared. Last year was a tough one for you, friends being mean and telling you you don't belong. I would see the pain in your eyes, how brave you tried to be, I know it hurt. I have felt that pain. Just know, I know you are a kind girl and one day...those girls who hurt you will understand they need to be kind too. I love you and will always understand. Love, Mom. - City


S: I’ve Been Through So Much Drama. I’m Not Tough Enough To Fight My Own Battles So It Has Always Been My Parents Fighting Them For Me. It’s Hard Being A Girl I Feel Sorry For The Girls Who Start The Rumours Because In The Long Run Theyre Just Like The Ones Who Have To Deal With The Burdons On Their Back. I’m Not Saying I’m Perfect And Have Never Been Mean To Other Girls But I Wish There Was Just One Simple Word...Sorry but It’s Not That Easy. To All The People That Have Said Mean Things About Me I Forgive You And For All The Mean Things I Say About People I Hope You Will Do The Same. God Bless To All And Drama, It Hurts So Please Don’t Do It Anymore And Be Strong And Give It Up For You and For Others. - City


Lauren : People think middle school was hard? Well, it was. I am now a Junior in High School and even being an "upperclassmen" I hear girls talking about other girls behind their backs. Even though it isn't face to face confrontation, words are still painful. And today with Face book, Twitter, Blackberry’s, there are SO many ways to spread "the word". I have pledged ever since I wa sin 7th grade to NEVER treat girls the way my "friends" treated me. - City


DLR: When I was the "new girl" in 4th grade, a popular girl beat me up after school. Years later in college, I transferred to another university and my sorority "sisters" rejected me because I was a "transfer" and not one of them. WOW!!! - City


Courtney: The first time I remember it was third grade. I was new and everyone had enough friends. They told me who I could talk to and what I could do. I couldn't play basketball... there were too many girls on the team and let’s face it I was not good enough... at least that is what they led me to believe. It didn't stop there. It continued all the way until eighth grade. Finally, high school came and I was convinced things would get better. Not a chance then it was the issue that I lived in the wrong neighborhood. Came from the wrong grade school. It didn't matter what I did to try and impress them... wait why did I have to impress them... but it didn't make a difference. They didn't care what clothes I wore, what sports I played ... I just didn't fit in with them. I was the girl who was nice to everyone... but didn't have any friends. It wasn't until college until I learned what it means to have a friend. I have always tried to be a friend, but I never understood what it really was to have a friend until I was almost 19 years old. Something that still brings me to tears. The scars from all those years are not visible, but rather I wear them on my heart. Even at 23 years old I am scared. Scared to trust. Scared to open up. Scared to by myself. If I am being really honest, I don't even know who I am. I am so used to trying to be someone else to impress other people I don't know what I actually like and what I have trained myself to like. - City


Rosie : Back in elementary I was bigger than most girls...I was taller, chubbier and I developed faster then everyone in my grade. I was picked on. Which got me into bullying others to make myself feel better. I called girls names and told kids what to do. Then in middle school I got in a huge fight with my 3 best friends. Long story short...I tried to kill myself and ended up in the hospital for a week. I came back to school and got so many questions asking how rehab was..My 3 best friends had told the entire school I went to rehab for doing Cocaine. And it ruined my reputation. Which led to later on in the summer going into 9th grade. I abused many drugs...to cope with my problems cause it seemed to help. Sad to say doing one of the drugs...made me relize I am who I am. And I love being me and I love helping others and making others happy. So now I’m in 10th grade. I’m sober, happy and helping others. Being kind and loving God is now what I live for. It makes me so happy to see that I’m making others happy. Ive gone through a long painful process. But now everything seems so right! Gosh I could keep talking for hours. =P - City


Kassidy : Well, even if you don't believe in him, God loves us all and no matter what you look like or what you wear, all girls and all people are beautiful in their own way. When I was in elementary, I was the tallest girl with the biggest breasts and I had acne, like I do now. A LOT of girls, about 10 to 15 all hated me, talked behind my back, called me ugly, and tried to make more people hate me, and it started to work. I hated life. I went to the counselor every day, talked to my Mama every day about it, and prayed every day and every night. It only got worse. I had not a friend in the world. I wanted to die then and there. When I got to middle school, the worst girls had moved away and the others ignored me. I made new friends-about 6-and life was good. Until 1 girl started to dislike the others, including me. Eventually she broke away from us. But we kept going. Another girl started to be REALLY mean to us, and she became best friends with the first girl to go and she broke away. Then the only girl in the group who didn't want anything to do with it just stuck with them. So now it's just my best friend and I. The other 3 girls don't speak to us and leave us alone, so that's kinda nice, but I have a boyfriend and most my friends tease him and call him names and ask why the heck I am with him, but they think it's funny even when I tell them it's not. It’s kinda harassment because they say it to his face, but I told them that they CANNOT to that. They have backed off. Now I’m just wondering what's gonna happen next but for now it's okay. I’m in the 7th grade and I have experienced the torture all girls can do, and like in the trailer, not all girls can be talented, beautiful or perfect, but we CAN be nice and kind to other girls. - City


Tiffany! : Well, there is a group of girls at my high school that are really mean! They ALWAYS have something mean to say about EVERYONE! I hate having to be near them. Today at school my one teacher put me next to one of the girls. She is the meanest one! I don’t know what to do. I felt like crying cuz of what her friends said about me when the teacher said I had to sit by her. They say that I would "fit in" With them if I weren’t a "Church girl" I go to an Apostolic Church, I wear skirts and don’t wear make-up or anything like that! But I don’t think I’m willing to give up my church for them!!! - City


SS : Everything kind of started in middle school. Somebody told me I had big ears. I just pushed it off, but now I notice it tons. I get made fun of because I’m short with big ears. And that’s how I see myself now. Even my friends say stuff about it, and they don’t help at all with it, they think they are but they aren’t. My friends, I don’t know if they really r my friends. Some of them are nice, but they tease me, when their trying to be funny, and they don’t take anything serious, I tried to tell them, but they just laughed. I always have something to laugh at, or I’m being laughed at. I’m in high school now, and already I have had a terrible year. In my 7th grade year, I kind of started to cut myself. And that summer I didn’t eat at all for like a week, and all my friends didn’t try to help, they got angry and then they all wanted to not eat as much. It’s so stupid. And now they still don’t understand that I have grown up and that they need to too. Help. - City


Sarah: This is just a poem that I wrote that I think would go great with the kind campaign.. I wrote it a while ago but once they came to our school I thought I would post it.. And it is slightly long too. What can I say that you won’t turn against me? I try and I try but I’m not how I should be. In your eyes I’m worthless, no use for me at all, you won’t help me up when I trip and I fall. You got me to thinking about my own place, and almost made me cry in every case. You made me think that what's said to me true, and not once to think that it's all thanks to you. I was hungry and thirsty, but I was ignored, I was made fun of and yelled at, until you were bored. Everybody around me was full and quenched, with me in the rain, nothing but drenched. I’m kicked when I’m down, with no chance to rise, I’m scarred and bruised and with tears in my eyes. but I cannot cry, if I do I feel weak, because those harsh words have completely broken me. You’d wish that I'd never been born or I'd die, or start rumors about me, and gossip and lie. When I enter a room I get points and stares, then the insults come in, my personality stripped bare. I hide in a corner, but have no success, and because of you my life is a mess. I wish I could just go back to the days, where I was not known, but it was ok. at least then I would be in less pain than now, but all I can do is look back and say, "how?" "How did my life end up like this?" so painful, worse than if I didn’t exist. And hopefully one day you all realize, that you caused the sorrow and pain in my eyes. but no, you're too ignorant, to blind to see, that everyone has feelings, including me. - City

Little Amy : As a child, I was always called fat, even during my early high school years. I admit I wasn't ever thin, but I’d rather be fat and happy then what I am now. Now I am a 20 year old who can't eat normally, and has to run to the bathroom every time I do eat. I’m not healthy, and I want to get better, to have children.. a future. But if I can't get better, I at least don't want anyone else, any girl, to go through this. Please be kind... - City


C~: At the start of my senior year in high school, my best friend's mom told MY mom things that she believed to be true. Hurtful and degrading things about MY sexual activity. Sadly, the things she told my mom were true, but not about ME. They were truths about her own daughter, my best friend. Even sadder yet, my best friend didn't stand up for me and tell her mother the truth. Needless to say, our friendship came to an abrupt end. I couldn't stand being friends with someone who could be such a bold face liar. Well, several years later, her mother learned the truth when she caught her daughter in person while she was in college. We never received an apology, but that doesn't bother me so much anymore. What bothers me more is that MY mother will never know the truth about me. Time has run out, my mother is no longer with us, and will never hear from my former best friend or her mother what the truth really is. - City


Nicole: I have a beautiful and sensitive 4 1/2 year old Cassie. She started pre kindergarten this year with her best girl friend from preschool. She started coming home from school saying "my friend does not want to play with me anymore and she won't let me play with the other girls." I talked to the teacher and she noticed that Cassie had become withdrawn from the class. The teacher talked with all of the kids in the class about friendship and the next day at school Cassie's friend came up to her, grabbed her hand and they skipped happily away. It has been an emotional rollercoaster for me and my husband and Cassie is not even 5 years old. This teaching needs to start young because that is when the negative, agressive behavior starts. Kids need to learn at a young age that they have a voice and they need to be empowered. Thank you girls for being kind and spreading the word! - City


CB: To the girls looking for answers, peace and acceptance read what PATTY PETELIN wrote. Her words are so so true..."Yes, be kind to each other. This is simple. But most importantly, know that the ONLY TRUE SOURCE of confidence, respect, power and worth comes from within." The secret to happiness is not boys, it's not popularity, and it's certainly not clothes or jeans or sneakers. It’s participating in activities and things that will empower YOU to be powerful on your own! It's accomplishment and success (however we measure it for ourselves) that will make us smile! I have never bullied nor have I been a victim but I have an 11 year old daughter now who has told me many stories that have come off of the elementary school playground. I hold her accountable to treat people kindly, I also hold her to high standards of involvement with stuff other than boys and clothes and popularity. We as girls and women must stop competing with each other (we will all always be SO different) and start embracing the knowledge and understanding we can get from having girlfriends that are different from us. I wish you all the best and remind you that school is just a very small bit of your life and though there will be dark times, there will also be many more beautiful light times! xoxox - City


Alyssa: You both are so inspirational-- I am a senior in college now and noticed what you were doing last year, and have spread the word around my university on the east coast. We are all impressed by you. I think what’s most shocking to me is how externally beautiful you both are, and it is so rare/refreshing to find someone who matches that beauty internally as well! Keep up the inspiring work! - City


Desiree : In middle school I went through some really tough stuff. Friend after friend would betray me and spill my secrets. I even had one of them try to get me expelled from school. It got to the point where I tried to take my life three different times. Recently, I have noticed my cousin going through the same hardship, her best friend has started using degrading words, started telling her that she's a prude, when they're only 13, and my cousin is taking it really hard. I’m so grateful that there is something like this out there, to remind her that she's not alone, that the best thing to do is keep your confidence high and stay above the pettiness. Thank you, and keep spreading the word...this needs to stop. - City


Anonymous : My daughter is a smart, pretty sophomore. She is an outcast. She had a "falling-out" with her BFF of 8 year at the beginning of 9th grade and this BFF took all the friends with her. The BFF is more vivacious and outgoing and everyone just gravitates towards her. My daughter walks to class, eats lunch, waites for her ride home in the afternone ALONE. I can't do anything to help the situation, but I am there for her and just listen when she tells me how sad she is. I just want her to be happy. - City


Rachel: Grew up having lots of friends. in elementary school we all had fun and ran around. nothing mattered.. then it all went down in fifth grade. a new girl transferred to the school and became "popular" and it didn't bother me because all of my friends had stayed with me. But what really bothered me weas when I started to go through "the change" and the new girl asked me if I stuffed my bra. in fifth grade I was horrified. I didn't know how to respond. The answer was obvious. no I didn't stuff my bra. But the response from her was " well it looks like you do" I honestly didn't know what to say. I brushed it off and continued fifth grade. a year later I was 12 and in sixth grade. Hormones where ragging and everyone was going through that insecurity thing. having crushes and looking at the opposite sex. Boys were no longer gross. So I started having crushes on a few people and it was all pressure to "ask someone out" where you can go in sixth grade ? I dun no but people did. or maybe it was a title but I don’t ' know. For me, crushes didn't last very long. I liked one person for a week and then changed my mind. I mean I was 12 I didn't think the person I liked was gonna marry me. so I changed my mind about who I liked frequently. Which is were the problem occurred. The last boy I liked in sixth grade is the one who changed it all. as soon as the wrong person found out I was hearing words like slut, whore and bitch. I remember eating lunch one day and a classmate paraded around my lunch table chanting SLUT SLUT SLUT I was devastated. I mean a slut is someone who sleeps around with everyone and I didn't understand how liking someone made me that. the worst part was that the worst part was yet to come. the reputation of slut stayed with me through Jr. high. I didn't want to go to school because of all the name calling. I went with a few people but in Jr high it was all about status and I didn't understand. I had a lot of friends and one of them turned out to betray me. I found a note she had written to another friend of mine and it was describing me in a really mean and hurtful way. My lips were always chapped and slowly when I smiled it cracked leaving me a painful slit in my lip. (i still have a little scar) . in the note she referred to me as freaky lip, and it really hurt my feelings. So I went and asked her about it. she denied the whole thing but I knew she was lying because the notes were in her hand writing. I stopped talking to her and the next day I went to school as normal, went into the dressing room to change for gym when my friend came running in telling me to go into the bathroom. on the mirror in the bathroom in huge writing were the words " RACHEL LOPEZ IS A SLUT" I went to the principle and he had it cleaned. I was crushed. Then later in permanent marker was my name in reference to slut, bitch... You get the story. It finally stopped when I got to a high school that was too big to have "popular" kids and I found my nitch. I’m 22 years old but the time in my life when I was the most vulnerable and most influential I was the most harassed and destroyed and it still haunts me. I didn’t want to go to school or even be alive. - City

L: As a new student in a new elementary school girls would call me names and make sexual rumors up about me. Soon not just the girls were being so hateful. This really impacted my life- I hated coming to school so my grades suffered.. I became very depressed and tried to take my own life once 8th grade hit. My parents, who unfortunately received a lot of the aggression I had built up, had no idea of the real problems and I was to embarrassed to tell them. Thankfully, I went to a high school with new people and that helped me see the light more. However, I am currently 23 years old and since middle school I have experienced eating disorders and alcohol abuse because of my low self esteem. Also, it is extremely hard for me to form relationships with people- I am afraid of trust and just feel like I am better on my own. I hope that girls out there will carry out Kindness and if they are experiencing "bullying" don;t be too stubborn to talk about it with someone who cares (and people do care, even though it may not seem like it now) - City


S: To start I want to say thank you so much for choosing to raise awareness on this issue. It’s really going to impact a lot of people and I wish you both the bestt of luck. Personally I took this presentation to heart. Throughout middle and high school, I struggled to fit in. I tried everything possible and completely changed who I was as a person just to be even the slightest bit included. I lost who I was and am currently, as a junior in college, regaining myself. I never really found strong connections in those 6 years, because I was forced to act in a way that felt unnatural, but I did it because of the standards of my school. Through it all, I lost true friends because they knew who I was deep down, but I never stuck to it because I altered my true self to 'fit in.' I've been through more then enough insults in my life, threatening letters, hate groups specifically towards me because I never cared about who's toes I had to step on to get towards my goal of being "popular" The real deal breaker is this- because I was made fun of so much, I forced my parents to surgically change the number one thing I was most ashamed of and was made fun of most for it. Talk about changing yourself to make others happy. I’m personally much happier as a person and have so much more confidence, but my lack of such led me to horrible relationships where my body and dignity were both challenged and put into situations that no one should have to go through. I just know that you're documentary really touched me because I became slightly suicidal due to the effects all this had on me. But eventually I realized what I was doing wasn't helping the situation. I lost friends because of an unfortunate hazing event that happened to a family member of mine, and It’s followed me ever since - leading to even more harrassment and embarrassment. I eventually learned to deal with it all, but to this day it effects me in some way almost every day. In all, I just wanted to share my story and hopefully find someone who reads it and can relate to any of those situations ive been in. My message is this: Be the best you can be. And never let anyone make you feel inferior - no one can do so without your permission. If you allow them to do so, you're only hurting yourself. And most importantly: Be you, because everyone else is taken. Thanks so much for your influence. Good luck - City


J: I hate when people call it bullying. Socially, it has become diluted to mean "an insignifican’t part of life that everyone goes through at some point." It doesn't have to be like that. Sometimes we can recover, sometimes people can't recover. This is something that legitimately destroys a person. There should be no room for tolerance of it. - City


Nicole : I would just like to say that I’m proud of all those who have the courage to admit and bring up events from their past which have hurt them in some way, shape, or form. You are my role-models, all of you - City


Rather not say.. : This may sound pathetic to some people but I can't tell anyone else. I feel like I’m trapped in a relationship that I don't truly want anymore. I’ve been with him for almost three years now and everything seems fine, but I can’t hide the feelings that I have for one of my friends. My boyfriend is practically perfect but idk just something about my friend is making me more and more interested. I feel lost and don’t know what to do. I’ve never felt loved until I started dating my boyfriend, and I’m scared to lose what I have now only to never get it back. I feel like I should leave but I don't want to as that same time. It’s horrible. - City


Mackenzie : My parents had recently started the process of a divorce, I depended on my best friend. Jessica was all that I had and was the one friend I shared everything and anything with. Truly my best friend and the only best friend I had. Slowly she started being more reserved and then she stopped talking to me. I asked her what had happened and she said she just needed some space. I was then lost without a friend when I needed her the most. It may be better now but I’m worried that it will happen again because I still don't know why. - City


Bee: At first, I became friends with the popular crowd around 1st-2nd grade, not because they wanted to, but because I was learning English (I had just arrived from Mexico) and the teachers "forced" me and them to hang out together so I can learn to communicate. One day they all where picking fruits from a tree and were writing against the wall with them. I wanted to join in so I asked one of the girls to give me a fruit. We were all caught (there were about 7 of us, boys and girls) and they all blamed me for it. Since then, I was teased and ridiculed for anything. I would spend my recess times alone or hiding in the restroom. My mother claims that she taught me to defend myself, but she didnt. She would tell me what to say or do, but her actions were worse. She too would insult me and call me an "idiot", "your just like your father", "you are so stupid", etc...Not only was I put down at school, but at home too by my own mother (who now states that she "never" did such a thing...I must be crazy then...). I grew up believing I was worthless. I have tried to kill myself by "alcohol poisoning" by drinking wine (the only thing we had around the house). I was scared to cut myself or take pills because I thought my mother would get mad at me and hit me (she was also physically abusive). My dad was the only parent that I loved and he too was a victim of my mothers abuse. I grew up afraid of people and I don’t do well with crowds at parties or gatherings. I often catch myself insulting my own being by saying "Im such a pig", "Im so disgusting". The last time my mother hit me was when I was about 21 years of age. Around that time, she said she was ashamed of me and that I was the biggest failure she had because I got myself pregnant twice out of wedlock (I ended up miscarrying both babies do to health problems). Now going at 30, these memories still hurt. I hate looking at elementary and junior high pictures because it reminds me of the ridicule I experienced. Not even the so-called "nerds" wanted to hang out with me...it was that bad. I was never invited to birthday parties or special events. And teachers would favor the popular kids over me when it came time for many things, including discipline (I got in trouble for defending one of my only friends when she was being teased). I was blamed for a lot of things I didnt do, and the popular kids went on without getting in trouble. I remember one teacher, who was really close to some of the popular girls, teased me about having a crush on a boy and she would laugh with the other girls about it. Teachers need to be held accountable too. I promised myself to never, EVER, put down my child. Never make her feel less than me or anyone. To never hit her out of uncontrollable anger or take anything out on her. To respect my husband, even if I am mad at him, and to never talk bad about him to my children. I promised myself to never, EVER, be like my mother and to do everything possible to protect my baby from kids who want to destroy her (I finally had a baby). I hope someday, bulling becomes a law, a law where kids can actually end up in juvenile hall or something. Someone quoted "(bulling) is dehumanizing the human race". There should be serious consequences for being a bully. And both the victims and the predators parents should be looked upon because the root of all of these problems come down to how the child is being raised. And for those who make ignorant comments like "Im sorry I hate you, I just can’t help it", It’s people like you that need the most help because It’s people like you who destroy lives, including your own. I am now a mommy of one little girl who I love dearly and am married to the most loving man I have ever had in my life. I became a Christian and that has helped me, bit by bit, to learn to love who God made me and to know that His love is all that matters. And yes, I still live with my mother. She can’t take care of herself financially and all my other siblings can not stand her or afford her, and I was the last one to marry, so she got stuck with me, and I try to avoid talking to her as much as possible because she still tries to manipulate or insult me. And as for the kids from my past...I tried to be friends with them on Myspace or Facebook (we are all adults now, we should have all grown up) and some did add me and we chat once in a while about our present lives. Others, they never responded and some have blocked me. And still I wonder what I did wrong. I am now trying to be more social, more for my husband because he is a very social person, and for myself so I can learn to enjoy the company of other people without the fear of insult or embarrassment. I hope and pray something good comes from all of our pains and sorrows from our past so it can protect the precious souls that are going to live and take care of this world once we are gone. I hope and pray all these stories, and this web site, changes someones bitter heart and raises awareness on how serious this issue really is. God bless all of you out there! - City


Alex: I stuck up for you when no one wanted to be your friend. When all the popular kids made fun of you for your weight and called you stupid. I invited you into my own circle because I didn't want you to feel any ounce of sadness. No one liked you, but I told them to give you time, and to be kind to you. When they started to come around you loved the attention, loved it so much that you lied and manipulated everyone to turn against me so you could be the "it" girl. I lost every single one of my friends my senior year of high school because of your cold heart. I hope you one day realize how much my desire for you to feel loved left me with nothing. - City


Kate: One girl in my grade claims she is my "best friend," but often puts me down. When I told her where I was going for fall break she rolled her eyes!!! (?????????) she told me last year that she really wants to be in the popular group, and now shes in. although she says shes still my "bff," im a little pissed that she betrayed me for them. - City


E: There is this girl that I went to pre-school with and we've been best friends for such a long time! Well since we started 5th grade she tries to keep our conversations short and simple. Sometimes she can be really nice and other times she is soooooo mean. she will talk to you one day and the next she doesn't want to be seen standing next to you. she thinks that she is "popular". - City

Emily: I just want everyone to know this: Remember All of you are awesome and nobody can tell you otherwise!!!!!! I know how all of you feel! Just hold on and keep your head up high! - City


A: The main problem with girls starts way back. Girls are afraid of change and to be different. It is a constant struggle to be the same and girls who set the standard of being a "certain kind of person" are also very insecure themselves. I have never been "popular" and have always tried to be myself. But in all honesty, rarely have I seen girls as themselves.That being said, when I do, they are the one's who are my true friends. - City


Mini T: I stood by you when people talked behind your back, though I too was upset with what you said (about me and my other friends). You lied to me and told me I was talented when I am not, isn't that why you got in and I didn't? you are super confident and every guy likes you, and I am sure you are well aware of that. You never take in to consideration the people that you hurt really do get hurt. I spent my whole summer obsessing over how mean you were to me. You thought you were better than me and I promised myself I wouldn't put up with it... And I tried to ignore you, but you came back and so did i. everyone loves you apparently. I always go searching for someone who feels the same way about you, but I find that I am one of a kind. I’m sorry. I feel so badly for telling that girl how pissed I was at you, and I am sorry for letting another girl read this. but people feel the same way, im just the only one who will admit it. You constantly told me last year to tell you when you were doing wrong, but I thought past it and decided that it is your job to take responsibility for your actions. I can’t let you run my life anymore, so I think we need to have an honesty day where we tell each other the truth. because we havent... we have put a mask on how we truly feel. im not really sure why im your friend because I don’t feel like im someone who fits in with you... but I want to run my own life, follow if you want, have fun with your career, just remember the girl who stood by you when no one else did. I still havent told anyone your secrets, maybe my mom a couple of times to get advice. just please be aware that I am still your best friend forever, because if you don’t know that, that is not my fault. I have told you countless times but you don’t see it. I am just a blank wall, trying to stay clean, but you just throw paint sploches all over me. those paint sploches are mostly tears, tears that come with joy. but don’t forget those black sploches,just black holes, leading to my heart and true feelings. care to ask me how I feel sometimes? that would be the best thing you could ever give me. remember: you are my BFF and I hope that never changes, just make sure to look back when you are walking, cause of course, ill be there! - City

It\'s Gotta Get Better... : I cut myself earlier this year and told two of my closest friends. long story short....they aren’t my friends anymore. Apparently it put too much stress on our friendship. I was bitched out by one's mom and one of them denies all of the wrong she has done to me. - City


ehh... : How is it that you can say we are "besties" then go talk behind my back...How is it that I now feel self-consious and insecure when I used to not care. How is it that becoming friends with you changed myself for better and for worse. I don’t understand why you treat me like crap or even why I am still friends with you, but I do understand that I don’t deserve any of this. I know you may not realize it, but you hurt me everyday. - City


Amanda : It started the summer before 9th grade. my best friends turned against me for nothing other than the reason that they felt like it. They spread rumors about me and called me a bitch and a whore and a slut. They hated me. They made me hate me. I tried to make myself feel better by seeking out the comfort from guys. but I was just used. I’ve never said a single word to them that suggested anything but kindness. I tried to starve myself because then nobody can say that I died fat. I hate myself. I hate them. I hate everyone. - City


Anonymous: I was raped summer going into 8th grade, everyone believed his story and thought I was lying even though I brought the law into it... All of my friends stopped being my friends and I sat at lunch very self concious of what other people were saying about me and whether people were looking at me or not for the whole first semester and a lot of the second semester that year,everywhere I looked people scowled at me and continued to whisper is another persons ear. I heard my friends talking about me behind my back and many other of my classmates were talking behind my back as well. People I didn't even know sent me hate mail saying that I should go kill myself. A lot of highschoolers threw pebbles at me as I walked by them and called me dirty names. I grew tired of the drama and I felt lonely and hated. I began to cut myself and when that wasn’t enough I started having eating disorders and I actually turned to alcohol to make the pain go away.. I eventually turned to suicide but my attempts failed. Right now, I am glad that they failed and I am glad that I went through this. I have no regrets in my life because I learned a lot from all of my experiences. And although I still have times where I am tempted to cut, I have wonderful friends who have gone through tough times who help me through it. I am a freshman now and I couldn’t honestly ask for a better life. I have great friends and I love my school. I forgave everyone who had made me hurt even the guy who raped me. If God forgives everyone why can't we. I aspire to be an image of him and right now I am a work in progress. Live*Love*Be Kind* - City


Anonymous: Your face will forever be in my head. What did I do to make you make fun of me? It was 'only' in sixth grade. You sat behind me and made stupid jokes and laughed at me and got other people to do it too. I have always remembered this, even if I have pushed it from my mind. But this year I could have sworn you enrolled in my school. You didnt. She looks exactly like you, and I cant be friends with her because of how you treated me. - City


Anonymous : So my best friend got a new boyfriend. two days after she dumped the old one. now of course I’m going to warn her and tell her to slow down otherwise rumors will start spreading. but obviously she didn't listen. now, we have only been friends for 2 months because I’m new to the school. oh did I mention it's an all girls school? So when she started dating the guy I was all happy for her and everything, but I was also worried. Like I said its an all girls school which means rumors are bound to start. My friend told me to write on her arms about her boyfriend and stuff so I did. A couple hours later she's yelling at me for it. First, she's telling people that I just did it even though she told me not to and then when I reminded her that it was her idea she said that she thought I wasn't going to write so big. Now I know this sounds stupid and not worth anyone's time reading but it hurt that she would try lying to me. so I did something I probably shouldn't. I started telling people that she's a slut. They agreed with me, but I started it. I don't regret it at the moment because it happened very recently, but maybe in the future I will. - City

Anonymous : My friend got a new boyfriend. two days after dumping her old one. She is/was my best friend but she started acting really bratty and mean after she started dating the new guy. I started telling people how slutty I thought she was and people agreed. It was true. Now I know I shouldn't have started saying bad things about her, but I couldn't help it. I also wasn't the only person in the wrong. I wasn't able to always go to the parties that my friends had and it turns out my best friend was telling all of the guys I can't date. It’s true, but I later found out it was because she was jealous of me. So overall, we both did things we shouldn't and I don't think we're good as best friends. - City


Dear Amanda: Friends do not just turn on you there is always an underlying reason that you had either not knowing it or even maybe you did not realize but your friends did. I would ask your friends what you did honestly. - City


......: it started in elementary school. I asked a girl (who I thought was my friend) to tie my shoe. simple right? well she rolled her eyes and did what I kindly asked her to do. She could have said no...instead she went around during recess telling everyone that I was super bossy. then the message spread to my teacher who told me I needed to stop bossing my peers around. I had a reputation. my teacher believed in it..so I felt awful..no one would believe me. the teacher gave the other student permission to call me "BG" for "bossy girl" and if I was ever being "bossy" they could call me a BG...so then they were able to call me names...i never told anyone how much it hurt. I just sucked it up and figured maybe I was being bossy since everyone kept telling me I was. I remember going home crying almost every day after school...i didn't have any friends for a while..luckily the summer helped people forget about that nickname of mine. then I went into my 5th grade year with a fresh start. that same girl was completely mean to me..she made fun of me in every way. it was little things but it added up and it hurt sooo...badly. I would dread going to school the next day. the next year I switched to a new school. being the new girl was hard enough..that year went okay. the next year a new girl came and started rumors about me. she called me a slut and bitch and lots of other names. I didn't understand why she chose me. I had never even had one conversation with her and here she was saying things about me and judging me. I cried. And got soo mad at her. I’m still totally mad at her. I hate her. she hates me. luckily I go to a new school where I haven't had that much trouble. just little drama here and there. but whatever. it doesn't matter anymore. - City

None: I hate life. My friend say they are my friends but they talk bad about me behind my back. It hurts me that they do this. I can't handle all the lies they tell me. One girl always says I look like a bird or a boy or someother thing, she says it all serious like then goes and tries to laugh it off. It really hurts me. I've confronted her with her talking about me before and with the names, but she always says she didnt do it or she was joking. This hurts me cause I cant really trust her anymore. I dont like it and I cant handle these things. I hate how because of how she and my other "friends" make me feel. they make me have thoughts, bad thoughts, thoughts that a girl my age shouldnt have, thoughts that no one should have. Thoughts of death and leaving everyone. Thoughts of killing. These aren't the best thoughts to be thinking. I can't deal with her or anyone else but I still talk to them and go back for more crap that she gives me. I dont know why she chooses to make fun of me but it hurts. Hear me Sarah, it hurts and I dont like it. I have felt like cutting or killing myself cause of you, but I always try to be the stronger person. So far it's been working but I am scared, scared for my life, that I will eventually get to overwhelming and I will so something to hurt me. Sarah I’m sorry if I ever did anything, but I know whatever it is, I dont deserve this MUCH crap. please dont hate me, dont make fun of me, dont hurt me anymore. I just want to be your friend but if you dont, then tell me so you aren't leading me on again and again - City


Anonymous : I had no friends. I would sit alone at breaks during school, on my laptop so it looked like I was studying. Whenever I saw anybody in public, I would pretend to text because I was alone. I had no real friends. Everybody was two-faced. I would be with one girl, just the two of us, and they would treat me like we were best friends. She would laugh at my jokes and we would talk about normal things. Then if we joined a crowd, she would roll her eyes at everything I said. If I said something she had thought was funny a moment before, she would smirk and tell me I was an idiot. people were so mean. Anything I said was wrong. When I offered an idea, it was ignored. People never invited me anywhere, It felt like no one loved me. I wanted to die. I thought the only place I belonged was with God, but as things got worse, I stopped believing in god and felt completely alone. I wanted out. I tried to kill myself so many times. I tried strangling myself, I tried over dosing many times, I tried drowning, I tried jumping off things, I tried to just stop breathing. Sometimes I would pray that I would die in a car accident or something. Others, I wanted to commit suicide and leave a note to make those girls feel sorry for what they did, but there was always something that stopped me. Now, I realize the somewhere deep down I knew things were going to get better. I knew that one day, I would succeed and the those girls would be jealous. Today, I have really good friends who love me, and I love them. I have people I can go to with anything. I promise you that everything will get better. Hold on for a little longer and you will find a person that likes you for who you are. - City

I was the one who posted about my friend and the two boyfriends. I’m sorry that I told the truth. I guess in this society it's a crime. I was angry that night because it seemed like my best friend in the world changed in a negative way. I love her to death and I feel extremely bad about what I said, but why should I be criticized for saying what I feel? It makes me upset to think that on a truth wall, it's hard to tell the truth. I’m sorry that I called my friend a slut and I would take it back. But you can't take anything back. I didn't spread it to the whole world, I literally only told 3 of my closest friends what I thought. If I could do it over, I guess I would have remained silent and not expressed how I felt. - City


Anonymous : I have no idea what a best friend is. All the quotes about two souls in one body, all the pictures I see of girls sharing time together and becoming "sisters", all the laughter at school, I simply do not know how that feels. I have always been the "quiet" girl, but now, all I want to do is scream. I started at a new school this year, high school was beginning for me, and I saw it as a fresh start and a means to reinvent myself. This did not work. Everyone seems to take me for granted, and I feel that I would be the best friend to anyone if they would just let me in, but no one seems to care about me. - City

Holly : My school years, from sometime in elementary school through high school, were a nightmare. Yes, I suppose I was a bit "dorky", and a bit of a social misfit, but I was still a nice kid. It wasn't entirely my fault, because my parents dressed me in hand-me-downs and garage sale clothes, and they never attempted to teach me any social skills. But those flaws made me a target to all those who saw me as "different". Luckily, I had a small circle of female friends throughout those years, who liked me in spite of my lack of social graces. I thank GOD for them, because if I hadn't known that no matter what others did to me, that they still loved me, I probably would have totally given up. There were MANY times, especially as a teen, when I wanted to take my own life to escape the hell I was living in. The only thing that saved me was knowing that at least a few people thought I mattered. Even now, DECADES later, the things that were done to me still hurt almost as bad as they did when it happened. I can still remember the humiliation of having to get a super-short haircut after some girls put gum in my hair at a play. Or being tripped in gym class, so that I fell and got a bloody nose. Or having my clothes stolen during gym class, so that I had to wear my gym clothes all day, in the middle of winter. Or when I finally made a cheerleading squad, thinking I was finally going to be accepted, but they ignored me, and intentionally told me a different date for yearbook pictures so that I wouldn't end up in the group photo, and got the yearbook staff to leave my name out as well. It makes me cry EVEN NOW, just remembering it. I’m sure they all moved on with their lives, thinking that what they did was no big deal, but it IS. The pain lasts a very long time. It took YEARS for me to stop hating myself, and even more years for me to like who I am. I couldn't go to the H.S. reunions because I didn't want to face those jerks. And I never really understood WHY they did these things to me. I never hurt anyone, I never bothered anyone. And when I had a child of my own, I made sure he always understood how the way he treated others made an impact. he grew up to be a very well-liked kid, because he was nice to everyone. I am very glad for all the recent attention to bullying, and how serious it really is. If just ONE kid is saved from living through what I did, then it will have made a difference. I know that kids will probably always still be kids, but I truly hope that this is the beginning of some real change, and acceptance for everyone. - City

Caligirl: I really-really am trying to help my friend but I don't know what to do...she sent an "inappropriate picture" of herself to a guy who said he was alone when there were four other guys. I was told by one of them who I am close with; and he only told me because he felt he needed to tell someone...but wanted it to be someone who he knew wouldn't tell other people (me). I still have not and don't plan on telling anyone else. However, the other guys who were there apparently managed to tell practically all the guys at their school (all boys school). She is a really good friend of mine (although how we came to be this close is a long struggling story). Recently there was a party/gathering that we were all attending. At this gathering she, I , my guy friend, and a few other girls were dancing. Every now and then the guy she sent the picture would come over and start dancing but would leave kind of laughing and shaking his head. I gave my guy friend and one of his friends a ride home, and during the ride I had been texting the girl. She had told me to tell them hi, and when I did, neither one of them replied. This reassured me that the entire grade pretty much new about the picture now. My guy friend told me, once I dropped him off about how the guy who had received the picture had been saying "he just couldn't do it" when referring to the dancing. When she and I continue to talk, she always talks about getting a group together and getting some cute popular fun guys to hang out with, but I know that they all won't want to because of the incident. It’s really upsetting me and I don't know how to go about it. And the friendship between her and the guy she sent the picture was somewhat important (I’m not 100% about it) and I wouldn't want to make that a mess. ESPECIALLY if she didn't send the picture, but based on the reactions, and knowing her, I think she probably did. I am not one to judge her for it, especially based on our past together, but I know that others will. I don't want to ruin our friendship by telling her if it's not true, and I don't want to ruin it if it is. :'( - City

It’s always been that way, and probably still will be for awhile. I don't care about it anymore though. I am willing to allow myself to really see the power I have over myself and my life. "they are just words". yes they are just words, but they do have power. I really understand that and that still affects me, even after years and years of being targeted. I just hope that anyone else who is looking for hope knows that they are real, they have a purpose, and there really is so much more to life than the people that make themselves the center of it. - City


Jules : In 7th and 8th grade I thought I had a best friend. She was really nice and she made everyone else who was her friend feel like they were the most important people in the world because when they were with her, they were. We will call her Mandy. In 7th grade I and two other friends (who we will call Ashton and Gloria) were best friends with this girl. Then, Mandy decided she didn’t like Gloria any more and dumped her from being her friend. Naturally, I hated that girl from then on. I made up reasons I didn’t like her. I was really mean and really really wrong. Gloria tried to warn me. she told me that yes being buffs with Mandy was fun and it makes you feel really important but it was not worth it. She told me I was being used and was going to be thrown away someday. This made me hate her even more. Well, I want to say sorry to Gloria because she was right. I was dumped my Mandy. She wouldn’t talk to me at the beginning of this year until Gloria, Ashton, and I became best friends. Every time we tried having sleepovers or coordinating costumes for dances etc, Many would have to know. Now, even though Ashton was never officailly dumped, she doesnt like Mandy. I dont like Mandy. I feel bad for Many and her two new bffs. Every day, Ashton, Gloria, and I see Mandy's new followers and want to warn them to stay away, to not get to attached, and to be on your guard, Girls like Mandy are dangerous. They use and abuse you and only want to hang out with you when they need you. Gloria and Ashton told me I was such a different person when I was friends with Mandy. I would follow her around and do everything she said and all they could do was watch and see me get crushed my My ex-bff. I'm really sorry to anyone that I hurt when I was friends with this girl. I was mean and very-very wrong. It’s really hard to see when you are in a bad friendship with someone like Mandy but just know when you inevitably get that cold shoulder, there will be girls out there like Ashton, Gloria, and I who have gone through the same thing - City

Anonymous: When I was in 5th grade my best friends threatened to kill me. I didn't understand at the time what it meant at the time so ignored it. It happened again and once more on my birthday. That night I told my mom what happened. My friends turned against me, thinking I made it up and couldn't believe I told on my best friend. They took her side and left me in the dark. I thought it was my problem and my fault. I was stuck having to find a new group. Those girls today became a bigger group and are the more "popular" crowd. They party and hang out with all the guys. I love my friends now, but I look around and just by the way I look, act, and feel I know i belong with the happier and more popular people. Naturally I know I belong with them, even though I wouldn't have the great friends I have today. - City

Anonymous : I just want to say thank you to a rare kind of girl. She is/was one of the "popular" girls but she was never catty or mean, she always had time to listen to anyone who looked like they needed someone, and she tried to make everyone smile at least once while she was around. Other girls were jealous of her because a lot guys liked her but whenever they tried to start rumors about her or anything, she would go to them directly and ask them how she had wronged them and if there was anything she could do to fix it. She never did anything wrong to them, they were just jealous and they would feel guilty for being catty to someone so undeserving. We were not best friends, she was just in one of my classes, but she made everyone feel special when they were with her. She showed me how girls are supposed to be to each other and to everyone, she taught me that kindness can be the best defense and offense. I don’t know what she's doing now but I have a feeling its something great, because she was an all around amazing girl and I aspire to be like her daily. So thank you. - City

Crazy Beautiful : I could not imagine my life without my friends. Without these strong, intellectual, beautiful girls, I'd probably be six feet under by now. When I was in the 7th grade, my parents filed for a divorce the first time. It was a tough time, but to add on to the stress, my best friends spread rumors about me and ostracized me from my entire class. Because of all the stress I developed an eating disorder, started cutting. They are things that I still deal with now, 6 years later. But (mostly through my amazing friends) I have found that even through all the difficult things I've been through, I am still the same crazy beautiful me and I should be happy with myself and love myself because I am not the only one. We're all a little crazy beautiful, and we all love someone thats a little crazy beautiful. To all the girls on here who have bullied other girls, remember that you don't know their lives. They could be going through so much more than you know, so be a little compassionate. Don't assume. Just be kind. And to all you girls on here who feel like you're the only one, don't. Just continue to be you and know that someone loves you just for that- just for you being you. - City

Anonymous : I'm a college freshman. I started out the semester with a great group of friends. However, a few weeks in, my "friends" would hang out without me and then lie about what they did that night. I stopped going to meals with them because I wanted them to know I knew what was going on. What's really tough is that I go to a huge university and I feel so lost and alone. For a few weeks now I've felt as though I want to die. I don't have a real friend here that I can rely on. I'm afraid to put myself out there to meet new people because my former friends dropped me without any explanation. Literally, all I did was be a friend to them. Luckily, through the KIND Campaign I know I'm not so alone and I'm going to join some organizations in the spring semester. Hopefully things will turn up soon. Peace, Love, and Kindness ;) - City


Lindsey : I had a close group of friends in eighth grade; my closest was my best friend Elyssa. Elyssa was the one you would label the mean, popular girl. I would say that we were equal in social status but I wasn't as catty as her. She decided to ostracize a girl in my group of friends. Unfortunately, though I had the social power to be a good person and stick up for this girl, I was a bystander and just went along with what Elyssa did because she was my best friend. The girl we picked on cried in school often and I could tell she was completely miserable. By my sophomore year of high school I patched things up with that girl. However, Elyssa dropped me as a friend freshman year to be with some more popular girls. Since then I have really made an effort to be a nicer person and to not single people out. It's just not right and not fair. - City

Heidi (South Africa) : I was bullied from pre-school right through Primary and High School including college. Bullied by both guys and girls. At 24 yrs old I learnt I had social phobia (I was born with it). I am now 35 yrs old. When the teenagers next door to me are outside in their garden, I find it very difficult to go outside. I feel scared, rejected and think that they are going to mock me or verbal abuse me - even though I know they are not going to and don't even notice I am there. But the pain from school gets relived.

Amanda : Looking back on my days in school, it was shockingly simple to recall a number of bullying incidents that I was involved in whether the victim or the guilty party. I know that at times I could not handle the pressure of being an independent self secure teenaged girl and I have lashed out on another girl before. To Holly I do apologize now for my behavior. Harsh words and hair pulling had no effect on the reality of middle school and it was pointless for me to lash out. I can recall however, far more instances where I was the victim. One in particular being the first day of middle school. Eight people to a lunch table seems like a simple enough cafeteria rule, until you are the one being voted out of a seat. I was half way through my lunch and was asked to move for someone that was liked better than I was apparently. I didn't know any of the other students from the other elementary schools so I stayed put. Shortly after finishing my lunch once again I was asked to move, more aggressively this time, a few girls from across the cafeteria claimed to recognize my name. I wonder if the girl asking me to move even remembers this day. I have never forgotten it. That was just the first day of middle school, I have six years of similar school stories. I know we are all imperfect, but I believe in the Kind Campaign and wish to end girl-against-girl bullying. Sorry to those whom I may have offended and Sorry to those whom don't remember offending me. I hope to do my best as an educator now, to assist young girls in recognizing their negative behavior and correcting it. - City

Anonymous : Sadly, my mean girl experience in middle school still lingers with me today and I'm almost 24 years old. Their teasing and excluding, but still keeping me around to bring me down, completely wore down my self confidence through my early teenage years and greatly affected how I related to other girls through high school. Fortunately, I attended a public high school and soon realized most girls won't judge you as harshly as those in that small, private school on your appearance, the brands you wear, your age, your boyfriend, your other girl friends, your lack of a barbie tan and platinum blond hair, your sex life (yes, at 13), etc. I feel for those girls stuck in a fake reality confined by girl drama like in my private school, and too young to know there exists a much larger, more diverse world outside where that bull**** doesn't even matter and where you will one day feel confident and beautiful! I can't even imagine what it must be like now 11 years later for girls in this day and age. Even though I still remember what it was like feel like that 13 year old girl afraid to be herself, sadly I don't think those girls today have any idea how they hurt me. - City

This friend trusted me, and we stayed friends, however, some girls didnt get chosen to be her friend. one girl decided to be mean to me and this changed my life. i was scared to be around some people who used to be my friends. There was a rope hanging on the fence left over from a cut jump rope and i tied the other end up onto another part of the fence. i fit my head into the loop and attempted to hang myself, but the rope wasnt high enough and my friend, (the popular one), convinced me not to.

Lorena : Just recently I had a friend who is going through hard times feel that I did not love and support and encourage them to go for what they want. Because I am creating my dream I believe I got impatient with hers. And as such became irritated with her constant need to talk about what really was worrying her. There became a tit for tat aspect to our friendship that I should have stopped when I saw it occurring. I am sorry for making her feel hurt, unloved, and unsafe in a time when she needs support most. As a woman in my forties I see too often how the competition, insecurity, and fear lead women to treat their friendships and friends with a need to control. The worry that someone might outshine you is constant. And instead you need to celebrate them in love and honor them. This is a constant issue that I hear, especially for strong women. I know that it hurts cause I've been on the receiving end, but how to stop the almost brutal worry of being left behind or alone. This makes women more hurtful and in a way vicious. So we need to put pride aside, as I plan to do after submitting this story. Pride can undo so much in our lives. Take the high road and be kind. - City


Someone: I have certain belief that some kids at my school think is weird or different. And just because of that, i have been physicly and mentally hurt. My used to be friends turned the tables on me. one pushed an entire desk into me, knocking me over and i almost had to go to the doctor. another always called me names and swore at me. And this was only the beginning for me because that was only two of my friends, i had a lot more! Take my story as a lesson, everyone goes through the same thing, but maybe they express their feelings differently than you. - City


Maddy: I don't know what to say. Basically I am sorry if I have ever done anything mean because I know how it feels. Now I take my time to talk to everyone even if they may not be beautiful may not be smart may not be skinny- I don't care because the people that mean girls judge are usually the ones who are the best friends. - City


Courtney : It was my first day of 8th grade at a new school. I was scared to death and didnt know anyone. After a long day of getting lost and being late to all my classes, it was finally time to go home. I sat alone on the bus only to overhear the girls' conversation behind me. One asked the other "Do you know who she is? Should I sit with her?" and the other replied, "No, she's not even that pretty anyways." that was 8 years ago... and ill never forget how bad my heart hurt that day because it was the day i lost my self esteem. *Be kinder then necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle* - City


Stephanie : When I was in middle school, we found an old box of my mother's things in the basement. We pulled it down, and had a great time looking through pictures of her with terrible clothes and hair styles. We found her old year book and were reading some of the messages that people had written. Amidst the "Have a Great Summer’s and the countless "See you next year!"s someone had written "lose some weight", no signature. When I looked at it I was immediately horrified and infuriated. I looked up at my mother's face and she was crying. At the time, my mother was in her forties. It had been decades since middle school but the bullying still hurt and embarrassed her as a grown woman. My mother had always told me how words hurt but it wasn’t until then that I realized she was still haunted by her own past even as an adult. I wish that everyone realized how one sentence can impact a person’s self-esteem and self-worth for years. My mother has always said something that stuck with me my entire life: “You don’t have to be best friends with everyone, but there is no reason to be mean to anyone”. - City


Erika: it was a normal day of 9th grade, hanging with friends, worrying about my best friend who was addicted to drugs, and getting through a day not being able to help them. my best friend in the whole world had decide to share my heartbreaking secret with many others and out of the blue told me," You are stupid, why would you help him? Let him have fun! drugs aren't bad for you! if you help him you won’t be cool and no one will like you!" by losing my best friend who only cared about what other would say, i helped the other to get better and they are now one year sober. without the help they recieved that person would have overdosed and i would have lost my true best friend forever. - City


Anonymous : My best friend said a couple mean things about me and denied it. I didn't want to be her friend anymore. After she said that, everything she does annoys me. I have said really mean stuff about her to me other 2 best friends and 2 other friends. I ignore her and am mean to her face, but she ignores me and doesn't get angry but she still thinks we are best friends. I just want her to stop ignoring me. I feel awful about things I said but I still can't stand her, she thinks she is so cool. - City


Anonymous : In the third grade I ran away from daycare. There was a group of us, it was so silly we were trying to go "buy c.d.s at the local Fred Myers." Anyways, one of my friends at the time decided to bail at the last minute, and when the teachers asked her where we had gone she told on us (in her situation I would have done the same.) The group of us (guys and girls) got into a lot of trouble, we all stopped talking to Emily after that. That alone was awful enough, but one day we decided to pretend like we were all friends again... at the end of the day we told her it was "a joke." In middle school we talked about it, she told me all that she went through with the whole debacle and what it did to her, I apologized and she truly forgive me but it has been 14 years and I can still feel the guilt. I hate that I did that to her, to anyone. Emily is an amazingly strong and brilliant person. She is off doing big and great things in the world now and I am proud to know her as my friend. After that experience I have gone out of my way to make other people feel good, I'm the nice girl now and have been for a long time, which is such a better feeling. People need to understand the power and influence you carry as another person on the planet. Being kind doesn't only benefit others it can change the way you feel about yourself. - City


Anonymous : My Best friend didn't like the fact that I was dating an old boyfriend again, and he was around alot. She decided to start leaving me out of everything, but saying mean things when I wouldn't come around her. I decided to confront her about it and she told me that we were no longer friends. It hurt really bad. Now the other girls she hangs out with treat me really badly like I'm invisable. I don't want to be their friend anymore becuase I don't deserve anything they have done/ said about me. I just wish she would have been the friend for me, that I was to her. - City

Anonymous : During middle school, 2 girls that i thought were my so-called friends spread a rumour about me that i was lesbian, which i was most definitely not. eventually, this rumour got to a group of 'popular' girls who basically 'ruled the school' or whatever you wanna call it. this group of popular girls who i was friends with at one point rejected me and gave me dirty looks wherever i went. i was so affected that i wanted to die and never come to school again, or show my face in public places. thank god i continued to go to school and manage a 4.0 GPA average because i honestly considered suicide an option. i am finishing 8th grade right now and whenever i see those girls, i think of all the rude, hurtful things they have said to me. but one day, a girl in their group came up to me and told me that i was beautiful, smart, kind, and funny and perfect just the way i was. that meant so much to me. Thank you so much caelin. - City

Chelsea : Girls have such power that no one knows about. That power goes into all of our emotions and enhances them. When a girl is mean to another girl, that power goes into that meanness. The same goes with hurt from being bullied. The power in that hurt just enhances 10 times more. We all need to be reminded of that. - City


Morgan : I loved the Kind Campaign documentary, the stories from all the different girls reminded me of all the "girl on girl crime" I have dealt with throughout my life. Starting in Elementary school, the girls in my 4th grade class would physically abuse me by pulling my hair and kicking me. It grew so bad that I was eventually removed from my class with these girls and put into another class. In middle school, I started off in 6th grade as the new girl with little to no friends. Then in seventh grade got into a group of girls who I thought were my friends but would continuously embarrass me and say hurtful things. They would call my house at night and yell at me. The bullying didn't just stop there, in high school I was completely shunned from my group of friends for almost 6 months because of a false rumor that had surfaced. I remember walking through the hall ways completely alone while people would stare and whisper about me. Eventually the bullying stopped as I learned to defend myself but then during my senior year the junior class began to bully me again. Calling me names, comparing me to animals, vandalizing my house and my car, making a fake facebook page about me. Not that I am in college, the girl on girl violence against me has stopped. But the pain it caused me has lived on. I now live my life, being kind or at least trying my best to never make anyone feel the way I did. Thank you Lauren and Mollie for your message!!! - City


Kelly : All of my issues started about 6th grade when my best friend left me for the cheerleaders... i felt like i didnt have anyone. She wanted to be popular apparently thats all she really cared about, then her best friend payton started to bully me i would cry every single day and ask for help but no one listened all i wanted to do was die.... but evenually i made new friends later in 6th grade Jen and Kenz yet... sadly at the begining of 7th grade they both left me to become more popular... and you want to know whats worse? its being lied to, they told me they loved me and where both still my best friends but then why would they stop talking to me and start talking behind my back... Now in 8th grade me and Jen have reconnected and are best friends but now im friends with a girl named bay and well shes not very nice... she gets bullied a lot... but she also is the bully. Shes so mean towards other people... sometimes vishious. and a lot of the times i dont want to be around her whens shes mean i always am telling her if you want people to stop bullying you then you need to stop bullying them... well look as if our school is very popular oranted and everyone is just social climbers... but to me none of that matters... PEOPLE NEED TO STOP ALL THE HATE! - City


Brianna : I had a best friend for 8 years. At my freshmen homecoming dance she found out i liked the same guy as her. She ran up to me and started screaming in my face, i went to the bathroom and cried, and cried some more at home. For months after that she had turned the whole volleyball team on me and any friends i had made prior to that. Many things were said about me on facebook and other social network sites. I started dating this guy since our friendship was over and i didnt think it could get any worse. When i ended the relationship with this guy his sister was threatening to beat me up and making fun of me because i got my parents involved and i threatened to call the cops. I was scared to go to school in case she would be there and hurt me. I am the nicest person, the last thing i want to do is hurt people, i cant tell people no and i let what they say hurt me. My freshmen year of highschool has been the toughest and i shedded many tears, its only made me stronger. - City


Anonymous : in middle school one of my friends and i got in a fight and all i can remember is the last word she called me and that wast i was FAT. granted i was not the slimmest girl but i was defined not fat. i told my mom we got in a fight but did not tell her what went one in it. later on what she called me really hit me and i started to exercise more and consume less just to please her. i never told my parents about it. i just wanted approval.i am still friends with her after we made up but i still will always have this in my head. it seems silly to be concerned about just one word and i am sure she did not mean it in a hurtful way but she did not know how much it ruined me - City


Zoë : There was this girl at my school who was different. She was tall and slightly overweight, but a nice person. She didn't have many social skills, but she wasn't awful. People started teasing her in the worst ways - gossiping about her, pretending to be her friend, daring her to do things because then she'd be "in" with the crowd. She did stage crew for the shows in our drama department, and even though she was a hard worker, her frustration led to more ostracism. One night, during the forth show I was doing with her, the entire cast started ganging up on her, screaming about how much they hated her. These were people she had truly believed were her friends. She ran into another room, trying to get away, and I went after her. The look on her face, the words she said - nothing could express how devastated she was. It was the saddest thing I have ever seen. I never ever want to see that look again. Just because someone is different doesn't mean you have to treat them that way. Seeing someone's heart broken is not worth five minutes of fun. I promise to never let her go unprotected again. We are all so beautiful and deserve so much more. - City


Anne : I am 23 years old and I still get panic attacks when I'm around people I don't know. My friends hate it because I just want to run away and hide. The minute I walk into a room and think that someone is judging me or looks at me the wrong way, I immediately analyze everything I have done from the second I walked in - as if I was the one doing something wrong. My friends have started avoiding me and don't want to be around me because I cry, get angry, and hide from people, but now that I need them the most, they're not here. It's very difficult to deal with and I know they don't understand what they are doing but I hope to overcome and help them understand how to be proactive and positive friends to people like me in the future. - City


Carol : In Seventh grade me and my friend Yfke got into a fight. I heard she was calling me names behind my back and so i called her a name. It soon became a war and she turned all my friends against me. Soon everyone hated me for what happened. I complained to the counselor and she took us both out of class to talk about it. So we did. Soon people started making rumors that i was calling this girl Named Jackie a lesbian when i wasn't. Im in the locker room 6th period when Jackie come up to me and says "imma F*** you up" in middle school people believe those rumors. When ever i walk down the halls now all i hear is mummers. Everyone Calls me a bitch, even tho they never heard my side of the story. Yfke used to be the nicest girl, prettiest and quietist girl ever. And now shes just Mrs.QueenBee. I et lunch by myself while reading because noone likes me. All because of a stupid fight. I've apologizd so many times. and she hasnt apologized not even once. I wanted to die. Until i realized i am better than them. I have things to do. I dont need people who are just going to bring me down. And since that day Jackie has threatened me so many times. Her facebook status is "Imma fight Carol. If not today, tomorrow." - City


Anonymous : So, Everything has gone downhill since i got into highschool. Ive lost most of my friends just because ppl call me the "IT" girl. I dont like it. I just want to go back to how it was before. Middle school was indeed a nightmare... But this is 1000x worse. I only has 3 bestfriends now... But one of them doesnt go to my school. I just feel so lonely and insane... i dont know what to do about it. Ive turned a few girls against myself, by doing things i could have easily avoided. Im just the girl that needs to do stuff to get attention, i do not know why, but i am. - City


Zoë : I've been friends with her since 6th grade and now she decides to leave me and the rest of our friends. She said,"I hope you don't mind, Zoë, but I'd like to meet other people." Of course I said yes because i can't keep her from doing something she wants to do, but now she doesn't sit with us at lunch. She hangs around all the populars and they don't even want her like we do. We love her, but she obviously cares more about fame than fortune. And everytime I see her, I want to say hi, and ask her why she doesnt sit with us anymore, but the words just won't form. - City


Janyl : My little girl has been horribly scarred. Not by outright bullying, but by ostracizing. She has social anxiety disorder, and most girls in the school she went to were "social butterfly wannabee's". We live in Scottsdale/Paradise Valley; in an upscale area and the people are mean snobs. The girls in her grade school treated her like "cellophane girl" they also spread stories about her to groups outside of school, so that she would be ignored there as well. Their mother's ignored both of us as well, no invitations, etc. My daughter is nice, polite, pretty and has no behavioral issues. She is just quiet, shy and withdrawn; aka not the cheerleader type. Needless to say we changed schools, she is in counseling for low self esteem issues stemming from this treatment for several years. It's funny-these same mom's who excluded my child and encouraged their children/girls to ignore and ostracize her have fundraisers for Phoenix Children's Hospital - they just wouldn't want them to come to their child's school I guess. - City

Anonymous : I have been "friends" with this one person for a pretty long time, and just a few weeks ago she called me off and started saying things about me that WAS NOT TRUE. she only cared about herself. she would go gossip to her boyfriend about things that were not true about me. i have a good amount of friends, and out of all those, two of them stood up for me. even my best friend didnt stand up for me... she just acted like nothing was happening. i accually think she was taking the other side. but i was getting really sick ans tired of this girl being mean to me so i went up to her and told her that what she is doing is not the best thing and i probobly shouldnt have but i said that we can try to be friends again. since then she hasnt been the nicest person but she is ok. i havnt told her this but if she decides one day that i am not "good" enough to be her friend, then i will be the one to tell her that it is done. i dont wanna be friends with her if she is gonna be like that. - City

Angelica Morales : It all started in 6th grade, It was my first year in middle school and didn't know much. During the middle of the year a girl that was in 7th tried to talk to me, but since I was really shy back then, when she would ask me questions I would just smile and nod my face, well I guess she didn't really like that, so the same day she got all of her friends, and waited for me after school outside of the gates, when i saw them I just stood there because I recognized the girl, so they all saw me as well, the next thing I heard was "get her!" so I started to run away, I was so scared, I didn't even know what I did wrong, I remember looking back and seeing about 20 girls running after me, I ran into the office crying and scared and had my mom pick me up from inside the school, the next day when I had to tell the principle what happen, she didn't believe me, the other girl told her that she didn't even know me, from that day on I was too scared to walk home.. Another thing that happened to me in middle school was in 8th grade. I didn't really have many friends at that time, but the one's I did have I trusted them with everything. So one day one of my "friends" that I considered my best friend told me some horrible stuff. I remember her telling me that I didn't deserve to live, that all the other girls as well as she were only my friends because they felt bad for me.She told me to just kill myself already and make the rest of the world happy, she would call me names and told me that I was hideous, she told me that I would never find someone who will love me, and she said that I was a disgrace to the world. I couldn't believe it, the person who I trusted the most told me those horrible things.. It really sucked, I remember that after that day, every night for a pretty long time I would cry myself to sleep,I felt so self conscious and ugly, I felt like no one was there for me, I felt like what she had said was true. About a year later I started to cut myself, I felt like what she had said was true, I remember even writing a suicide letter thanking her towards the end for opening my eyes, thankfully I was too scared to harm myself that much. This went on for about 3 years. I don't know why she said that to me, but I know that I never did anything to her. I was always nice and very shy. I'm currently 19 years old and it still haunts me sometimes.. I always wonder how girls can be so mean and cruel sometimes. I remember the thing that opened my eyes was my baby brother.. I remember thinking to myself that I needed to stop cutting myself because If something like that were to happen to him, I would want to be there for him and for other girls as well. It's still very hard to talk about, i still tear up, because it just hurt so much inside. Ever since I was a little girl I had very low self esteem, and what those girls did to me made it worse, I'm not a very confident person, but I do realize that what she said wasn't true. I remember building up so much hatred towards her for doing that to me, I felt like she ruined my life... I know that there are many girls out there going through the same things I went through and worse, I just hope that girls realize how much damage they can do with their words. - City

Lena Atwood : On the first day of 6th grade I saw a new girl. Her name is Katie. She was beautifully gorgeous and had a great personality! All the boys immediateley liked her and I was very jealous. She is also athletic and in great shape. At first i thought that if I ignored her nobody would like her.....like me. But then I was feeling left out because all the girls and boys liked her. Her older sister Aubrey in 8th grade was also like that. As the year progressed she kept getting more and more friends and i felt like i was getting less and less. Now we have four more weeks of school and Katie and I are best friends. Our other friend michaela has hearing aids and getts made fun of so much! We have decided that shes no different from us she just can't hear and so we are now trying to become friends and not let her get picked on. I am so happy because we have talked and we used to hate each other! But now the three of us Katie Michaela and Lena are going to be friends forever! I love you guys!!!! - City


Rae : Because I was quiet, I had very few friends in school. False, hurtful rumors would always circulate about me because I didn't reveal anything about myself to anyone except the very few good people in my life. I felt like no one understood me, or ever could. I was tall, skinny, and I had a "strange" sense of fashion and music. I refused to change for anyone, though. Now, I'm 24. Being tall and thin isn't a bad thing anymore. I've done modeling, graduated with my degree, met my counterpart and accomplished several other things. Now, the girls that made me the joke in high school are typically obese and still stuck in my old, small town. Isn't that how the story goes? They want to become friends with me, over Facebook and whatnot. I don't know how to feel about this. All I can think of is the way I felt when I had to sit alone in the cafeteria, if the one friend I had was home sick. The way I felt when no one wanted to ask me to be in their study group. When I was laughed at for being who I was. I have spent a great deal of my life feeling like the dirt on the bottom of someone's shoe. In the past few years, I can honestly say that my perspective has changed entirely. I love myself, and after contemplating long and hard, I can only feel pity for those girls who eventually trapped themselves in their own selfish, narrow mindsets. Don't be afraid to be different. It doesn't take any courage to conform. If you're beautiful on the inside, it will show on the outside, one way or another. My love to every girl who reads this. Stay strong and love as much as you can. - City

Olivia Dev : I go to a small, private school called St. Joseph where clicks were already formed before I even started kindergarten. In fourth grade, I became best friends with a girl named Natalie. At the very end of that school-year she pulled me aside at recess and told me that I was a horrible friend. When I asked her for a second chance, she said "I've already given you a million chances." When the end of recess came and we all lined up as a class, she started talking really loudly about all the horrible things I'd done, which were actually not true. She made me cry in front of everyone. That whole summer no one talked to me. I came back to school and everyone ignored me or was mean to me. Ever since I've had a big struggle trying to be friends with the girls in my grade. Every friend that I've ever had has turned their back on me for some other group. I try to go to school dances but there isn't much dancing at all; everyone just walks around talking to one another. I try to make conversation, but they just walk away. I try to follow someone around that has been nicer to me lately, but they glare at me until I leave. Almost every other day I come home crying or on the verge of tears. There are 22 days until graduation, then I will be off to a big, public high-school. I hope it will be better. - City


Annabelle G.: In the 5th grade, I was really mean to this one girl. My friend and I basically told her we couldnt be friends because she wasn't cool. All I wanted was to fit in and be with the so called "popular" group, but now that I am older I have realized that its not a popularity contest, its about being with people that make YOU happy. I look back at it now and think,"How could I be so mean?" When Lauren and Molly came to my school, St. Joseph, it really made me think about how my actions can impact other people's feelings. Luckily, the girl I was mean to forgave me, and now we are really good friends. I just wish I had known that before, so I hadn't even hurt her feelings at all. Thanks for coming Molly and Lauren, you guys really make a big difference! - City


Claire : I am in the 6th grade and i was really mean to this girl. My friends and I pretty much decided to ditch her and be nonstop nasty to her and make her not want to look at us or come to school. The teachers got involved and she didn't come to school some days and when she did; she would bring her parents to come to lunch with her. Sarah, i am so sorry for being that evil person to you. You are a great friend for forgiving me. But im a horrible friend for making you have to forgive me. I will never forgive myself. Im sorry - City


Natalie p. : A couple weeks ago I really liked this boy but so did my best friend. I told her that she COULD NOT say yes if that guy asked her out. She became very upset and started crying every time I saw her. I made a huge mistake by doing that and felt horrible. And then molly and Lauren came to our shcool st. joseph)and really made a difference in my life. I wrote her a "kind apoligie" and told her she could say yes. we both cryed,huged and became friends again. Now she and that boy are a happy couple. Although I am sad that I am not with that great guy I am happy that she is happy! THANK YOU SO MUCH LAUREN AND MOLLY!!! YOU GOT TWO BEST FRIENDS BACK TOGETHER!!!! - City


Haley : I'm the kind of person who likes to plan things, and it's my specialty. It's who I am. But once my best friend told me that people talk about me behind my back, and call me a control freak. I didn't want to hear it. Once she left, I cried for hours. My own "best friend" doesn't even know how much she hurts me all the time. - City


Mccall Phillips: I am a 6th grader at Valley Catholic School in Portland, Oregon. It's my first year and I was expecting a nice welcome by all the kids. I got the exact opposite. I have completely changed myself an my personality for girls who I don't even like! It really stared to bug me when I found a note on the ground passed between two girls in my class saying that I was a bitch and a slut. This really hurt me, especially when I myself had called one of my now, closest friends a bitch. When you guys came to speak at my school, it gave me a chance to apologize for what I did. My friend and I cried our eye's out watching the documentary! It really had a huge impact on me! Thank you Lauren and Molly! You guys are truly inspiring! - City


Anonymous : A girl is coming to my school next year for 8th grade. My friends and I have been told that she's mean to all girls and really nice to all boys, because she's a huge flirt. I don't know how to act toward her, especially since she told one of my friends that she hates her. Since they are just rumors, I'm not sure what to do. I love my friends and don't want to be ruined by this - City


kamaria mallory- ford : i forgot to tell my other story. so here goes. this was also at a school named woodlake. one day i came to wearing a tube top that had straps and a couple of of girls saw my traing bra that i had on and they blerted out in front of the whole class " why does she have on a bra! she doesnt even have anything." after class i went to the bathroom and cried because i was embarrased. - City


Lauren Bales: I am a 6th grader in Frisco, Texas. I go to Roach Middle School. In 5th grade I was made fun of because I'm slightly overweight. The summer before 6th grade I decided to dye my hair black and wear darker clothing because it makes me look skinnier. Now all my friends call me goth, emo, and ask if i am slitting my wrists. Plus they still call me fat. Y'all are the only people I have told, I hadn't told my mom until 2 weeks ago. Now my mom has decided to move me, my little brother, and herself to a "new-ish" school.... It's "new-ish" because I know most of the kids that go to that school because I went to school with them from kindergarten to 3rd grade, so I know them and they know me. I also know that before I moved away from them we were like family so i know that alot of them wont make fun of me and will stick up for me when I am being made fun of. - City


Jasmine : I want to say sorry for everybody i have bullied. i have been bullied for all my life and its not fun. It tears u down emotional inside. Been bullied is not fun and bullying someone else is not fun. - City


Anonymous : From third grade on, I was bullied called fat, and weird. I hated my life. I have tried on and off since the age of 9 to kill myself. I even became mean and I am sorry for those girls I was mean too. I wish I had never been so mean. Molly and Lauren came to my school yesterday. I apologized to the three girls I had been the meanest too, they had shot it right back at me. unfortunately they didn't care that I am actually sorry. That I want them to be my best friends again. But I feel better, I know what I did was right. Molly and Lauren I have a new perspective on life now, thank you. You two are my heroes - City


Anonymous : You two young women are inspirational and truly a blessing to those girls who you have touched spiritually. You have saved many lives and I think it takes a strong, willed, determined and warm hearted person to go out and share with communities around the United States about spreading kindness. I am inspired to to and be better. I want to be able to contribute my time as well, to spread the peace and love. I think it is worth the time and energy to promote kindness. It isn't easy being a girl, that is stated many times, but everyone girl is a human being and beautiful in their own ways. My heart goes out to those in need of compassion. Message to the girl society: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. To conclude, thank you Kind Campaign for the time you have given to spread kindness among the world. God Bless. - City


Anonymous : This campaign and organization is so inspirational and amazing and I am so glad that you guys came to our school with the movie. All through middle school I was called dumb and ugly by both guys and girls, and your movie really captures the pain behind it all. My friends and I have been talking about the power of this message and it is already starting to change how I view my relationships with other girls. Thank you so much! - City


anon : in 9th grade i was in this carpool with 3 of my 'friends'. for some reason they just decided that they didnt like me anymore- it was completely random i didnt do anything. for the remainder of the school year I didnt talk at all during the carpool and they made no effort to talk to me. When i did talk they would always find some way to put me down telling me i talked funny or making fun of me somehow. Finally one day I stood up for my self and told them to cut it out- and guess what- they hated me even more! they got so mad at me for standing up for myself but im glad i did because then they knew they couldnt mess with me anymore! The funny thing now is that I am really good friends with 2 out of the three girls that would make fun of me. I guess people change - City


Anonymous : toward the end of 7th grade my "best friend" stopped talking to me for no reason at all. I guess she had found new friends. For a while I felt that I was worth very little. If one of my friends had forgotte me, others would too. My ex-best friend and her new friends looked at me a laughed. I knew they talked about me. But I just didnt know what I did wrong. What I did to make them laugh at me or stare at me. It's been about 2 years. When I think back and realize that it was never about me. She just didn't know how to be a good friend. - City


KK : During 6th grade some horrible things were posted on facebook. People said some of the meanest and most hurtful things about me, to my face, behind my back, and on the internet. I tried committing suicide on several times, and probably still more to come,since the bullying started. But it hasn't stopped. Help!! I thank my best friend for saving my life. If she hadn't, i would not have met M, an angel sent from the heavens. - City


Lakshmi : I was teased for the color of my skin! i hated it! :( Being an Asian is not nice.. please ppl dont be reciast - City


Anonymous : I got teased because i was more mature then the other girls in my grade. They would try to break me and make me freak out. Eventually I tried to dumb myself down and they liked me better. After a while i was so tired of pretending to be someone i wasn’t that i did snap. I regret that year and what happened but it taught be so much about myself and who i am. I just wish i had figured it out without all the pain. Now those girls are addicted to drugs and alcohol, but i don’t laugh. i feel bad. Because they could have done so much better. I know them, and it may sound backwards.. but i wish them the best in life. They taught me more then they know. - City


nahlamfh : My freshman year was really hard on me. I cried my self to sleep almost every night and I found it really hard to fit in. I would hang out with a group of girls in my class, but once we were outside of school we never talked, and I felt like they looked at me as if I was stupid or annoying. I wanted to change myself to what I thought they wanted. To me, they were perfect, and I was just some girl, who didn't really belong in any cliques. I kept everything all bottled up inside, and would just lay in my bed crying, going to school only twice a week most the time. It was hard on me because it didn't seem I was perfect enough, or my personality clashed. It made me want to give up. But to all you girls out there, we just gotta stay strong, and stick together. - City


Kiara C.: I'm in sixth grade at Valley Catholic Elementry School. From the first day of kindergarten, i have been teased and bullied. I've been called things like fat, b****, slut, dumb, anorexic, uguly, trash, stupid, rich, stuck up, liar, and SO many other things. I've been beat up. Alot of the time, I don't want to or am scared to go to school. I can't stand it there. For a long time, it's benn my living h***. Sometimes I get so scared that I get phisically ill. On facebook, someone said they didn't think i was a virgin. I'm stinkin' 12 years old. That same person said she'd marry me next time she saw me. She's photo-shopped so many pictures of me and they were really inappropriate and REALLY hurt my feelings. Eventually it got so bad that I tried to kill myself. It has'nt changed one bit and there are days where I still come home wanting and wishing to be dead and not wake up in the morning. I actually told my mom after shool today that I'd rather be dead. This year has been the worst of them all. 1 in every 100 school days I come home happy. In other words, it's REALLY rare. Even the only friend I have at School, and I'm beggining to question our friendship, how sorry she truely is, and how well I know her. I wish I could be accepted for who I am and only that. What does it take now a days to get a friend?! I want one really bad. My mom always said these two things, "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer," and "friend is like a penny in your pocket." I want that penny. It's all I've EVER wanted. And look where I am now. No friends, wanting to die and only surrounded by judges.Like I said before, I wish someone, ANYONE, could accept me for who I am and only that. - City


Halas : One year in high school, someone doctored a picture of me from a school dance and turned it into an ugly, vulgar image. They emailed it to my parents from an anonymous address, hoping to get me in trouble or humiliate me. They did it. It was hurtful and embarrassing. Luckily, it was clearly photoshopped and my parents and I got the police and the school administration involved. The culprit turned out to be one of my close friends. It's sad how wrong you can be about some girls. Since then, my judge of character has improved and I've learned to be careful with who I trust. Now, I realize how important it is to protect each other and I'm proud to say that nothing like this has happened to me or my friends since. - City


G.A : I was best friends with this year since the third grade, then the 6th grade came around and this girl who become friends with me and my " best friend" this girl started to get closer to my " bff" and pretty much "bought" her friendship with taking her to movies, concerts and other stuff, soon, they became best friends, and they hung out more than I did with my best friend, but she still talked to me, but once the girl finally got what she wanted, she stopped liking me no reason and ignored me and critized and verbally abused for everything I did. The she said horrible, over-exaggerated things about me to my bff and and she started to hate me and ignore me too, she acted like I was pest and everything I did or say was immature and annoying, she acted like I didn't exist or that we were never friends , of course, I was friendly with some other people, but the girl who took my friend said nasty things to them too, and then they didn't like me, and since the end of middle school till freshman year, I had no friends. Still, I don't have many friends because my trust for people was shattered after it happened and I was afraid to talk to people and make new friends, and when I do make new friends, I can't let that girl see, because then she will start talking to them, act friendly towards them, and then bad mouth me to them. I have been through many " mean girl" situations, but this one hit me the most and taught me to have a better judgement of people, a MUCH MUCH better judgement, if only I found it odd that this girl "bought" friendships and kept my distant of her, me and old bff would still be talking today. - City


Brianna : Last year I went out with this guy that I liked. We talked around our friends, texted each other, and just acted like boyfriend and girlfriend. I got too obsessive and my friends starting backing away from me, but I didn't realize it until a month last during the summer. It was around the 4th of July when you are supposed to be having fun with your friends but no, I wasn't on of those girls. My three "best friends for life" (as we called each other) had been talking about me behind my back and decided to ditch me. Now I mean, they didn't answer my phone calls and texts, they didn't talk to me at all and I was hearing stories about how they hated me and the fact that I had ever liked my old boyfriend Teddy. I became very depressed. One of these girls was a close neighbor, so during the summer the three of them who go over to the one girls house and yell and scream having the time of their life, while I sat on my deck for the rest of the summer, (the beginning of July- the end August) crying my eyes out for hours on end because I had no friends. They were the only ones I had and now they were gone. It was now September and I didn't want to go to school. I didn't want to talk to them, be in any classes with them, here stories about them, or even look at them. They were the girls that ruined my life and they were bullies in my eyes.My prayers didn't work. I went into a deep depression and my mom thought I should go to a counselor. My mom was my best friend. She was there with me threw it all. She called to parents of these three girls and begged to know why they were mad and they wouldn't say a word about it. All I wanted was a friend. I cried for 5 months straight (September-January) after school everyday, because all I wanted was a friend. Just someone that would be there for me. Then in the middle of all of this, a neighbor gave the movie "Finding Kind." After watching it with my mom and realizing I wasn't alone, my life changed. In January I found a friend. Her name was Lexi and now we are best friends. She gave me happiness when I was sad. She was like an angel sent from above. I LOVE YOU LEXI NICOLE WITH ALL MY HEART - City

Andrea : I am a high school senior just about to graduate and I just watched the documentary in my English class. I know that girls can be nasty to eachother and I know there is a serious bullying problem in our society. This isn't my sob story, I dont think I am any different from anyone else who has been bullied. This is just my story. I have been bullied since the 4th grade. My mom never really thought anything of it since she was bullied when she was a kid. Even when I would come home in tears because the kids were so mean to me she pretty much just told me to suck it up and deal with it. In the 5th grade my aunt, my hero, came to an end of the year picnic for me at school, she noticed how mean the kids were at school and after the picnic she called the administration. Ever since then she has been my rock, my big supporter. Along with my grandma. Her daughter, another aunt of mine, always was picked on in school, so she knew what I was going through and noticed that nothing had changed in 10-15 years. She hated it when I would come to her house and telling her about all the things the kids would say to me. And she hated sending me home to an uncaring household. But that was just the way it was. The bullying pretty much ended in my Junior year of high school. It had hurt me so badly that it made me like a brick wall. I have a hard time letting anyone in to my life, I have extremely isolated myself. My boyfriend Jeff has had a huge impact on me in the past couple years. He has helped me to grow up. I moved in with my for my senior year of high school. Living with him made me realize how immature, and childish the kids at school were. There has been no verbal bullying, just the looks from the girls that say 1 million words. I would definitely like to become involved in this campaign. I want to help everyone I can. After high school I will be a legal assistant, and someday I would like to be a social worker. I really enjoy helping people. Thank you for letting me tell you my story. - City

Melanie : I have battled depression for a while now, and while I once thought what others thought mattered, I have concluded after a great deal of struggling, that what matters is how you look at yourself. It may be hard at first, I know it is, but eventually you will find friends that care about you for you, and don't judge you. Soon, you will eventually also find that one person who won't judge you ever, and want to spend the rest of your life with him. Just know that one day, all your dreams will come true, and none of those "mean girl" comments will matter. Loyally. - City


Shelby : In the 6th grade I had two "friends." We weren't really all that close but we talked and hung out durign school. Then one day it was like we were never friends. They started making fun of me to my face and told the guy i liked that I stalked HIm. and he belived them! I tried moving on and finding other friends and one girl who i thought was a true frind and who i trusted certian secrets with took them and turned them around to make me sound more like a freak. It hurt a lot that i had no friends and even now that i'm in the 9th grade i'm extreamlly quite. My "best friend" hardley even talks to me during school. ALl i wanted was to fit in. i joined a sport and now my team is my best friend. i feel happy with them and it has really helped me a lot. - City


Invisible : I'm in 6th grade right now. School's about to end and I am so happy! During the beginning of the school year I was going through puberty. I got my period and eventually I started getting pimples. There is this boy named Steven and he makes fun of me all the time. It started when my forhead was covered in pimples so it looked like I had acne. I knew I didnt have ance though because I did research and I knew I didnt have it. I kept telling Steven I didnt have ance and he would always make an excuse for why I DID have it. His friends joined him. They teasted me about having fake hair just because it looks nice and straight. They made fun of what I wore. I love loose clothes and they are all about the expensive brands. I can't afford that so I would do the best I can to buy whatever I could. Weeks went by, Months went by. The teasing and making fun of grew even more. I would get teased a lot than I usually would have. I would cry after school or on the bus. People would stare at me. They called me stupid and worthless. At that time I did feel worthless and stupid. I was really sad. I wouldn't eat dinner anymore. I would sit alone at lunch because everyone would be too busy talking about me. My friend turned against me when she wouldn't do anything to help me. I was always waiting for that day where they would get tired or teasing me and I could finally actually live my life. I wished I was one of those pretty girls and I did my every best way possible to make myself look pretty. Weather it was wearing makeup to tight clothes to expensive brands. I felt like giving up. I did. I hope I have a better future ahead of me and one day just be successful and look back at them and laugh. I wished I could do that. I just wish... I hope middle school isnt bad like I imagine it will be. I only have 2 friends and I am grateful I even have friends right now. God Bless - City

Tricia : I wasn't bullied in school. I was called a boy once because of my short hair, but my story is more recent. I am 26 years old and have been out of school for quite some time. I thought that since I was out of school that the "high school girl drama" was behind me. I realized after watching the documentary that I was completely wrong. An incident occurred only earlier this month; to which I didn't think was bullying but now I have realized it is. I was the only one out of my group of friends (good friends I had had for a long time) that was not invited to a birthday party. It really hurt me because I didn't know why I wasn't invited. I spoke with some friends that were invited and they advised me to talk to the friend that organized the party. I didn't want to because I didn't want a pity invite. I wanted to go because I was wanted there. I guess word had made it's way around because I was invited to the party only a few hours before it was to start. Once I got there everything was fine and there wasn't any awkwardness. The next Monday morning I came into work (my boss is one of the friends) and checked my boss's email as I usually do. I found an email from my sister to my boss about the party. Naturally I was intrigued and I read the email. In the email my sister simply stated "Long story, I didn't invite Tricia." This statement hurt me more than anything I ever experienced in school. This is my sister talking about me behind my back! She was my best friend; we did almost everything together, I helped raise her sons when she was a single mother, I paid her bills, I found her a job and this was the repayment? I know that in the end she will fight to the death for me and protect me from any harm, I think in this case she just got caught up in what was going on. It was easier for her to stick with her friends than it was to stick by her sister. I don't blame her for that, it happens to the best of us. I haven't told her or my boss that I found the email. I don't know when or if I will confront her. I know I won't heal until I do but I don't think she realizes how much that would hurt me if I found it; or how much she is hurting me by talking about me behind my back. My "friends" (for whatever reason) know that they are excluding me but I don't think they know the negative effect it's having on me. I think if they did know, they wouldn't do it. - City


TKO : I like to think that I was a good person in school. I don't ever remember bullying or taking part in a bullying session. I did make snide comments with my friends which in retrospect was not appropriate. I was nice to all those that did get bullied but I also didn't stick up for them when they got bullied because I was afraid they would start to bully me. I didn't always fit in for one reason or another so I skimmed by by not raising a ruckus. I now regret not standing up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves. It's easier to retreat than it is to take a stand but for the person being bullied it could mean all the difference. - City


Amber : You said that I had herpes all over facebook. You made fun of me and wouldnt even do it to my face but behind a keyboard, where I wasnt able to defend myself.Always all I wanted was for you to be my friend but you never liked me. Always I wanted you to like me but you would tell people SHES to happy thats so fake. You made my Senior year of highschool suck. Instead of having fond memories of the Past I will not have memories to share of that glorious Senior Year, because you helped destroy it. Ten years from now when I get the Invitation of my Highschool reunion will I want to come back I won't, because I will see you and all the others that teared me down. - City


Adrienne : I started reading these stories on the Truth Wall, right? The fifth one that came up kind of reminded me of myself. I started my period in 6th grade. I started getting acne (coincidentally, my forehead was the worst area!) but instead of someone in my own class making fun of me, a 3rd grader made fun of me! She called me "acne-face" when I went to the elementary school to volunteer. I tried covering it with make-up but it only made it worse! I always felt disgusted with my face and it seemed no cleanser would work. No boys ever liked me. I had two main best friends but my house burnt down so I ended up having to live at my grandma's house thirty minutes away so I barely hung out with them outside school. My hair randomly got curly in 6th grade but all throughout middle school, I only wished for it be straight and pretty (probably like your's). And for my clothes, I couldn't afford name-brands either! My parents were struggling so I had to buy clothes with my own money. I would waste my money at PacSun and buy $20 shirts whenever I had just enough money. Tight jeans were just beginning to get into style so I would try my best to find them anywhere I could regardless of the price just so I could "fit-in". Here's the catch, it came to the point I couldn't afford jeans one day and I felt like I needed another pair of skinny jeans so I decided to sew my jeans to be skinnier. Even though they weren't the best looking, I learned something about myself that would benefit me the rest of my life; it's just as easy to create my own style as it is to waste my money. Throughout middle school I sewed my own jeans to make them skinnier and by the time high school came, I moved up a level; I started making my own shirts. I stopped caring what others though about my style. I was an individual who deserved to stand out and by creating my own shirt designs I did just that. I would buy cheap shirts from Walmart, cut up old shirts, come up with a design, and sew it on the new, cheap shirts. Perhaps you don't think you have talent for creating your own designs on shirts... just give it a try! If it doesn't work out go to a thrift store. Tops costing up to $4 is paradise! I have just graduated a year early from high school (I was too impatient to stick with the same judgmental people another year) and, sure, I have changed but not too much. I'm used to my period and open about it (hello, every girl goes through it!). My face naturally started clearing up once I stopped stressing for years over it but I still do have my "bad" days. I stopped making excuses. I accepted my curly hair and now people who always told me to straighten my hair find themselves jealous of my curls! I never sat in a big group at lunch so I mean, that stayed the same but I really couldn't care less. I still make some of my shirts and I've never bought a pair of shorts... I've only cut old jeans and that's it. The expensive brands are too cliche anyway. ;) I don't know you but let me tell you "The Secret": just keep positive thoughts in your head and ONLY positive thoughts and the day will come when you will not laugh at the people who made your life seem miserable but you will laugh at yourself for allowing them.

I started getting acne (coincidentally, my forehead was the worst area!) but instead of someone in my own class making fun of me, a 3rd grader made fun of me! She called me "acne-face" when I went to the elementary school to volunteer. I tried covering it with make-up but it only made it worse! I always felt disgusted with my face and it seemed no cleanser would work. No boys ever liked me. I had two main best friends but my house burnt down so I ended up having to live at my grandma's house thirty minutes away so I barely hung out with them outside school. My hair randomly got curly in 6th grade but all throughout middle school, I only wished for it be straight and pretty (probably like your's). And for my clothes, I couldn't afford name-brands either! My parents were struggling so I had to buy clothes with my own money. I would waste my money at PacSun and buy $20 shirts whenever I had just enough money. Tight jeans were just beginning to get into style so I would try my best to find them anywhere I could regardless of the price just so I could "fit-in". Here's the catch, it came to the point I couldn't afford jeans one day and I felt like I needed another pair of skinny jeans so I decided to sew my jeans to be skinnier. Even though they weren't the best looking, I learned something about myself that would benefit me the rest of my life; it's just as easy to create my own style as it is to waste my money. Throughout middle school I sewed my own jeans to make them skinnier and by the time high school came, I moved up a level; I started making my own shirts. I stopped caring what others though about my style. I was an individual who deserved to stand out and by creating my own shirt designs I did just that. I would buy cheap shirts from Walmart, cut up old shirts, come up with a design, and sew it on the new, cheap shirts. Perhaps you don't think you have talent for creating your own designs on shirts... just give it a try! If it doesn't work out go to a thrift store. Tops costing up to $4 is paradise! I have just graduated a year early from high school (I was too impatient to stick with the same judgmental people another year) and, sure, I have changed but not too much. I'm used to my period and open about it (hello, every girl goes through it!). My face naturally started clearing up once I stopped stressing for years over it but I still do have my "bad" days. I stopped making excuses. I accepted my curly hair and now people who always told me to straighten my hair find themselves jealous of my curls! I never sat in a big group at lunch so I mean, that stayed the same but I really couldn't care less. I still make some of my shirts and I've never bought a pair of shorts... I've only cut old jeans and that's it. The expensive brands are too cliche anyway. ;) I don't know you but let me tell you "The Secret": just keep positive thoughts in your head and ONLY positive thoughts and the day will come when you will not laugh at the people who made your life seem miserable but you will laugh at yourself for allowing them. Trust me... I look back at my past and smile to where it has taken me. Your day will come too, I promise. - City

Anonymous : Special request to all you kids returning to school in the next few days: If you see someone who is struggling to make friends or being bullied because he/she doesn't have many friends or because they are shy o.r not as pretty or not dressed in the most "in" clothes -PLEASE step up. Say hi or at least smile at them in the hallway. You never know what that person might be facing outside of school. Your kindness might just make a BIG difference in someone's life! PLEASE REPOST FOR OUR CHILDREN - City


Macayla: I'm going into 7th grade and I'm going to a new school because last year was so hard on me at mountain veiw.I had two friends named naomi and michaela. Then one day they decided to leave me and not talk to me. The year went on for a few weeks and then naomi got suspended for no reason. after she left michaela would pick on me so I would try my best to act sick so I wouldnt have to go to shool but mom and dad would find out that I wasnt sick and I would have to go to shool. By the time christmas break came I was begging my parents to send me to a different shool.they didnt listen until the last few weeks of shool. So I finished off the year. - City


Anonymous: I was once best friends with a girl and we were like sisters. I told her everything and one day we stopped being friends. After that she started harassing me. Texting me threats that made me cry. Then she started dating the guy who I had liked for such a long time, just so she could prove to me that she could beat me at something. I'll never forget the pain she put me through, and it has permanently affected my trust in people. - City


Robin: When I was in 7th grade my homeroom elected me homeroom sweetheart as a joke. At first I didn't realize it, but it didn't take long. I was never one of the popular girls, and the boys and girls were all mean all the way around. I didn't have nice clothes and I lived in a crappy apartment near the school instead of in a nice house. I didn't know how to take care of myself then, often having messed up hair or mud or something on my clothes. Find those girls like me and help them out. Be kind. - City


Anonymous: There are a group of women in my town who have decided that I am not worthy to socialize in their circle. They don't like me. I don't know why. I can handle this, but what is worse is that their boys are mean to my son. They exclude him, call him names, and even encourage other boys to pick on him. They don't invite him for playdates or parties and they just make his time at school very lonely. I hope that this campaign will help to spread kindness. I'm surely going to try to keep being kind even when others are not kind to me. - City


Kate: When I was in Jr. High School, the older sister of a girl I knew thought I was spreading rumors about her sis. She cornered me one day when I was getting a drink of water and said I better not show my face out in the halls of our school or else I'd be sorry. For the rest of that year, I was scared to walk from class to class or even go to the bathroom alone. And it was all for nothing but a silly rumor that I didn't even start. - City


Sarah: I was bullied in the small private middle school I went to, for being one of the "scholarship kids". My parents couldn't pay for the school, but my scores were high enough to get in anyway. We always had second-hand uniforms, and it showed no matter how we tried to mend or spruce them up. Then I developed early, and was called everything from fat to slutty because my blouses wouldn't button properly. I wish the school had done more to stop them...I wish my parents had stood up for me more. When my own kids had bully issues last year, I made sure to stand up for them, and keep fighting for them until the problems were addressed. You can't stop bullies from existing in school - but you can be the one to support the bullied, and help them to stand up for themselves as well! - City


Elizabeth: I guess I never really thought about how I was treated until seeing these video clips and realizing that I was bullied. Yeah, I didn't get pushed around and no one cursed at my face but I think it's the silence and the rumors and the assumptions that are the hardest to get over. I was a very quiet girl, hard to get to know all through grade school and into college. Thankfully I had two or three close friends who understood me so I had a support system. In college, distance separated me from most of those friend but I joined a music fraternity and began forging bonds that I felt were growing into true friendships. About halfway through college my roommate, out of nowhere, blew up at me about being stuck up and full of myself, acting like I was better than everyone else. I was completely floored and had no idea where it was coming from. It was as though my introverted personality paired with my intelligence was suddenly being perceived in an extremely negative way. She apparently got several girls on her side and suddenly I was an outsider in a group that only a short while before I felt so at home in. How does this happen? Why does it happen? And how in the world is it that I feel a sense that it was my fault, that they are right? Even now as I try to defend myself I feel like I just come off as the whiny victim who probably brought it on herself. The difference is that I know the truth and I thank God that I have a faith and a strong upbringing that supports me when I declare that they are WRONG - I am smart and beautiful and caring and encouraging and nothing they can do or say will ever change that. Thank you Mom, thank you Jonna and Debbie and Heather, and thank you God for getting me through those roughest years. I know I still have self-confidence issues. I still play dumb on occasion because I feel like I have to just to survive, to be liked, to not be the smartest kid in the class again because that place is very, very, lonely. I hope that this documentary and this movement continue to inspire people and prevent what happened to all of us from happening to our daughters. - City


Camille: In the eighth grade, I went through the hardest time I ever had to go through. I was best friends with a girl named Jenna, and I trusted her with everything about me and told her who I liked and what I thought about the people I didnt like. Then at a fair that year, she started calling me mean names like a slut or a whore. and it hurt me, so bad. Then all of the sudden none of my friends wanted to talk to me anymore. I couldnt understand why because some I never talked bad about at all. Then one day i was talking to my boyfriend on Facebook and my chat boxes kept closing and I couldnt understand why. I called Jenna some things I shouldn't have and regret today, but I did it. I later found out a friend I trusted with my Facebook password went on my accout while I was on it, and was reading everything I was saying. She was telling Jenna, too. The next day Jenna called me out in front of everybody. I wanted to go cry but I stood Strong with my head high. I didnt go on facebook for awhile after that, too affraid I might say something wrong. But then I found out all the girls on my volleyball team and even in my grade were reading all my personal e-mails. They found out all the things I had said about them, what I would say to others, and lots of stuff I never should have said. Everyone ignored me when I talked to them in school and I was always walking by myself. I heard the rumors going around the school and my boyfriend dumped me eventually, too embarrised to be with me. I wanted to die. It was the worst thing I had ever been through, and I even got death threats. One girl called me "dead man walking" and I was scared. I eventually made new friends with the girls my little popular group was too cool for, and now I live a better life. Im in a new high school and loving life. Jenna and I dont talk anymore, but sometimes I think its for the better. - City

Anonymous: Bullying wasn't always a huge factor in my life. I had a best friend, and a couple other really nice group of friends for most of elementary school. Fourth grade, my class was doing some group project, where you had to send a document to someone in your group's email. My best friend was in my group, and was the one who sent the document to her email. She just told me it was fine to go ahead on her email to send the document to myself. (We already knew each other's passwords on our emails from making them a long time ago together) So once I was home and on the computer, I logged into her email, and sent the document to myself. Then something caught my eye. And email in her inbox marked with my name on it, curious I click on it. Nasty insults about how I'm a spoiled brat just cause my dad died, and how nobody's really my friend. I scroll through the conversation, and see all my friends bashing about me in a campaign forward to hate me, started by my best friend. I pretend I didn't see it, log out of her email, and ignore it for a few days, totally in denial that it even happend at all. Maybe I was invisible to it all at first up until that point because of me and my best friend's past as really good friends together, but the few days that followed, I noticed how my best friend un-noticably tried to exclude me from everything with our group, and lot of eye rolls coming from everybody when I tried to add to a conversation. I finally got the message that these people really won't my friends and realized how real the email forward was, so I consulted help from my mother who told me to just stay strong, back myself out of it before it got nasty, and try and find new friends to hang out with. I never confronted any of them, never told them I knew about what the said, I just slowly excluded myself from them, thinking that having no friends was better then having mean friends that didn't care about you. Sure the next year was hard, and then entering middle school was even harder, but I felt proud of myself for pulling myself out of the drama before it got much worse. My "friends" in elementary school, really showed how much of a coward they are for not saying those things to my face, and instead taking it out in emailing back and forth between them all. I was upset of course, but I only got more confident as I've grown past them all. - City

I am sorry that I am not as well adjusted as I should be. I just want to be your perfect little girl, to make you proud, to show you that I can meet all your expectations. I just get so bogged down in the pressure of life/school/etc. that I am afraid to show you any sign of weakness. I don't want you to think of me as a failure, even when I have made mistakes that I wish I could share with you. I am sorry that we have both said stuff that we didn't mean, but was very hurtful anyway. I am sorry if I every caused you panic, or shame, or pain. I know that we are both in a good spot right now with each other, but I would like to be at the point where we can both share our fears and faults with total confidence in being heard and accepted. I am sorry if I am still a little upset with you about the substance of some of our fights, but I want a clean slate. I want you to be able to truly trust me again, and I want to be able to feel like I can tell you everything, even if some of it might make you worry. I love you. - Nuria Lopez

Emily: Sometimes, true apologies cannot be short and sweet, especially when it comes to how durastic the situation that issued an apology may be. And that is why my apology is in the form of a story. I am aware that I am one voice out of many. Everyone has something to apologize for, I'm sure, wether they would want to face that or completely disreguard it. I for one am choosing to face my mistake in the form of this certain apology. I'm guessing some of you reading this, if anyone at all, may be wondering why I'm sending the apology through the interet wether than saying it to the girl's face. That is because I am 17 years old, and the girl who I want to send the apology to has moved away.... She changed her email, deleted her Facebook, Twitter, and even changed her cell phone number because of me. Her name was Caroline, and she was my best friend ever since preschool, until the eigth grade when our friendship hit rock-bottom. One of the things I'm surprised about is how much a boy can alter a girl. (I now know that being in a good relationship means being able to be yourself, something that I didn't know at the time of this event) Caroline was dating Derek, and Derek had always, always been my crush.... Caroline knew that. She'd always listen to me ramble about how wonderful he was for hours upon hours. But me? I never gave her the time of day to say how she really felt about Derek. She liked him too, and had liked him just as long as me... But Caroline had never had the courage to tell me. Maybe, she was wrong for going out with him after she had known how long I had liked him for.... But I was so much more wrong to her in return in so many ways. Caroline and I... We were both the most "popular" girls at my middle school at the time. (The word popular is nothing but a misleading word to me now) The moment Caroline broke the news to me that she was dating Derek.... I flipped out. Literally. I remember going completely crazy with anger, suddenly assulting Caroline and trying to yank out her hair while she screamed apologies at me. The next day at school, Caroline showed up with a patch of hair messing from her head and a black eye. My actions were wrong, and terrible. I was terrible and wrong too. I made Caroline's life as worse as I possibly could.... I spread rumors, and constantly referred to her as a slut as well as other vicious profanities. Caroline, the girl who had been my best friend.... the girl who had always stuck side by side with me... I turned on her. Poof. She was no longer my friend all because some guy had stepped into the picture. Surprisingly, Caroline and Derek dated all the way until Sophmore year.... Why did they break up? Because of me. I had lowered Caroline's level of popularity until she was practically nonexistant. Derek was ashamed of being seen with her, so he dumped her. Caroline had always thought Derek was PERFECT. She was completely devasted and resonated with her problems by not only abusing the use of drugs, but by abusing herself with knives. Derek was the only friend and person she had to confide in at school, and I had destroyed that. I suppose I should have felt selfishly satisfied.... But instead I felt weak. I later learned that Caroline's parents had made her move to a new high school, and ever since she had been receiving therapy. I was always happy though that she never went to the point of suicide, no matter how often she had brought the subject up. Now, several years later, not even these words here will be able to convey how I feel. The fact that I almost drove someone to suicide, alcohol abuse, and self-abuse will live with me forever. It will forever remain my deepest secret, and my deepest guilt. I wish Caroline the best... that she's dating someone who will love her and never leave her, that she's the happy and intellegent girl I remember from my childhood, and that Caroline is living the best life she possibly can. Caroline, I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you. I will never forget my actions, as well as how wonderful of a friend you were before I caused you all these tradgeties. I know you may never read this because there is no way I can get in contact with you.... But I am sorry, so sorry, for my actions. I will never be able to forgive myself. But I also thank you.... You never told anyone my name, you never even mentioned to anyone that I was the one bullying you. You gave me smiles and trust, but I turned those smiles and trust into angry eyes and hatred. If we ever meet again in the future.... Hopefully you, Caroline, and others will know that I have been changed, and that I never again will be the spiteful, envious person that I once was. - Caroline

Taylor Chanes: My close friend went after the guy I liked. In return, I convinced him to break up with her and then not even a day later, I hooked up with him. I did everything in my power to get him from her, and in the end neither of us got him, but I was the one with the broken heart, while she had a broken trust.

S: I appologize for the way I ended our friendship, you did so much for me. - K


Soo Kyong: I am so sorry for leaving you in 7th grade, even though you were always by my side. I left you because you were not popular and many people told me I should stop being friends with you. Stupidly, I agreed. You tried to make our friendship last, but I cut it off. Now we're juniors in high school and I regret so much. I tried to rekindle our friendship, but you obviously do not want to do that. I completely understand because I know how hurt and angry you are. I wouldn't want to be friends with me either after I left you high and dry. Also, you gave me so many chances before but I never took them. I am so sorry I left you for a group of people who are not even my friends. I really admire you because you were still able to pull it through and now you are even more beautiful than you were before. Comparing myself to you, I feel so embarrassed because you were always the great best friend while I wasn't even a friend. Now, you have tons of friends while I feel so alone and stupid.You are happy (and you deserve to be happy) while I am so miserable right now. I tried to apologize to you before, but because of my pride and fear of rejection, I never was able to do it. I know posting my apology on the web isn't the same thing as telling you in person, but I just need to get it out there. It's really hard to find a true friend, let alone a great true friend. I was stupid to not see that I had one before. Please forgive me. I am not asking you to be my friend immediately. Please let me earn your friendship and trust. I really miss you. - Olivia


Alex: The Kind campaign came to my school today and it was life changing. A couple years back, in middle school there was this girls I knew. She was fairly popular, well she had friends and Im not sure exactly what happened but her friends turned on her. I tried to really hard to be friends with her, but i we didn't have any classes together so it was difficult. I simply thought that her and her friend had gotten into a little bit of a fight, so I didn't think that much of it. After we watched the documentary Finding Kind she told me, in detail how she was affected by what happened between her and her friends. She told me how they would plan all they ways to embarrass her and how physically hurt her. She was never in any physical pain that i know of, but the things she told me were crazy. I didn't even realize how she was getting bullied, i was right there and apparently the things they said to her were very hurtful. i didn't realize how much words could hurt, i've never been bullied or if people say mean things to me I just laugh it off, because really i don't care what people think. I wish that i could've been there for her because by the end of middle school she had barley one friends, me. i wish that i could've tried hard to be there for her cause she really is a great person. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR DOING THIS!!!! It really opened my eyes to so many things. - Nicole


Kathryn : Renate, I know that it has been over 10 years since I wrote that horrible note, and that I have already apologized for the unkind things that I said to you...but sometimes I still think about it and I feel so sad and heartbroken that I was unkind and immature enough to think that something like that note was acceptable. I have searched for you on Facebook to add you as a friend and see how you are doing after all of these years, but it looks like you don't have one. I remember in high school, right before you moved, that you had a notebook for people's contact info. so that you could stay in touch with your friends. I was really happy that you had forgiven me for all of my unkind acts in middle school and Jr. High and that you asked me for my email address and phone number. But then, you were gone. I haven't heard anything about you or your family, and I hope that by posting this online that somehow, some way, you will know that you are still thought of and loved by one of the girls who used to be so horrible to you. Are you doing alright? Are you happy? I truly hope that you are. I am so sorry for how I treated you. I am so happy that we parted on good terms. http://youtu.be/CQJaZO2nfGg If you ever find this, please find me and let me know how you're doing. I'm on Facebook and I would love to hear from you - Renate


Nekisa: I wish I could tell you this in person, but because of what happened I will never be able to. You left this world before I had a chance to become the person I am today, the friend I could have been for you. I am so sorry that I wasn't there for you, that I was so oblivious to the world around me and to someone in need. I wish that things could have gone differently and even though it's not much I hope this is a start. I am sorry I didn't tell you any of this any sooner, before it was too late. I'm sorry. But never forget that you were always loved, no matter what. - Stephanie

I wish we could go back to the way we used to be. I pledge to be KIND. - Krystal

Kindly, Bebe Lari: Ever since this campaign today at school, I really opened my eyes to how many girls all around the country have been affected by words. I mean, they’re just words. Yet, every girl gets at least a little affected by it. So, I’ve realized that as much as I’ve been hurt, so have many other girls. I’m sorry for all the pain ive caused to every girl that I disliked. I’m sorry for saying I wish she could die, or hating her for no reason. I’m sorry for misjudging any girl because everyone is kind if you look deep enough. The world needs to be a better place and I should help by not making fun of any girl. It sucks to be made fun of, and no person should be put through the pain. Girls say mean stuff, but no person should bring you down. I’m just sorry. I should of listened to the other side of the stories instead of being stubborn and decided flat out that I hated the person. Hate is a very strong word, so I’m sorry for anyone ive ever used the word hate towards. - Dear every girl I’ve ever hurt,

Kindly, Femenhace: Hi Guys, tell me please, I am now in Mexico, and my parents are in Zvenigorod how to make so we could talk not on Skype - they don't like pc much? I found just such a story, maybe someone has used a similar service, or heard of him? Tell me please is it real? Once in a while the issue of the extension of market share is getting almost crucial for your companionship. Pretty often it happens that enterprise provides prefect service, it has well organized customer support, but, unfortunately, almost all neighbor cities already have bought your wares and sales falls down terribly. Now and then such condition becomes a reason of the insolvency of really good enterprises. What to do in order to escape from this kind of situation with interest? There is a possibility to expand marketing department which can lightly augment recurrent sales. It is also possible to invest into the promotional material. And this is really important part of the costs and income. Beside this there is an option to purchase a brunch in adjoining cities or even countries and start to grow instead of crashing. Unfortunately it is also not that simple as we wish it to be. Office space in the surrounding city is costly. Beside this there are additional expenses for the recruitment and educating of the new staff. There is simple solution for such problem that is described below. Read the story and get the idea of it. There was a little rope yard in the poky hole of a place, that manufactured doors. At the start everything was just amazing: skilled assistants were recruited, that did not cry for big salary, and the quality of the wares was really good. The manufacture had a lot of contracts, number of which even exceeded productive capacity of the company. Possessors of the company had decided that it would be like this for a long time, so they made a loan in order to obtain extra space. It has became even better, but all at once in about half of year, the income fall down. For some reason decreased - and that was it. How could it happen? Why could it happened? Where were the orders? But what did the company do? Early on they had two sale persons that answered the phone and transferred the orders to the factory. Afterward in conditions of the crisis company has recruited business agents as they thought that the orders were much more important then the rest. The agents started to visit house holders and companies and to offer the production of the company. The company even has payed for the promotional material, but all together increased sales just for 20 percent which were not enough even to return loan. Because there was no market anymore - the whole city has purchased their goods and the firm had no one left to buy their goods. Somehow company has been stretching out for a half of year more. They replaced everything they could with their production. They had full monopoly, but not the sales. In the situation of shutdown, people started to retire. Holders decided to vend the company, as it was better to sell out it now and to return at least part of the money. They published advertisement in newspapers and magazines about vending and even invited few buyers to take a look at the factory. But as there was not sale area for their production they did not succeed. They attempted to publish advertisement in nearby cities, but local citizens did not want to buy goods from outsiders. Only in the central city of the region there was good level of sales, but to buy office space there was not possible because of the shortage of the money. Another problem was that the potential clients did not want to dial inter-city numbers and to pay for roaming as well as to go to another city to buy anything. Time waxed on and formerly the most successful enterprise in the region was crashing. And then the nephew came to visit the owner of the factory. He came to have fun and to take some relaxation. As all guys of his age, he seriously loved to wave Internet, and the first thing he asked about was the potentiality to to log in social network. It turned out that the hosts almost did not use the Internet, so the poor guy had to search in Internet from his phone. As the nephew already has visited the manufacture around a year ago and liked it a lot - he asked for the potentiality to take a look at the production once again. But suddenly he received hard breakdown. The nephew was insolent and cheerful, so he decided to find out what had happened. And went to the factory by himself. That evening there was a watchman who remembered that the youngster was allowed to go into the factory without special permission of the proprietors. Therefore he sneaked in the enterprise without any problem. The nephew came back home in shock and straight started to ask questions: "Why could it happened?" e.t.c. At the end he was told the truth. The guy got sad and asked for the opportunity to talk with the sales department.. Owner decided not to object and gave to his relative such chance: - Do whatever you want, and if you need some help - let me know. The guy pondered for a while and suggested to obtain brunch in the capital as it is best place for sales with serious sales area. And after he was explained that there is some shortage of money, he had to implement creatively different way of thinking. As usual in such situations he started to wave Google to find the solution. And really Google was some help. In a few minutes of the searching the http://telnum.net/ to the site that sells direct phone numbers was found. It was a savior! It turned out, that it is real not to rent brunch in the capital but to obtain the number of the city needed. And just to imitate your physical presence there. Local purchasers will dial local number and like the result to be connected with the office that is located thousands and thousands miles away. Such a number costs nothing in comparison with the price for office rent or purchase, but it is as helpful as office. All incoming calls diverts to the number needed, and therefore there is no need to recruit additional employees and to spend money for the office rent. The company decided to try this innovation. The free test of the number was ordered. The connection turned out to be really good - clear and distinct, with no creaks and lags. The virtual number was purchased for one month. And unexpectedly they got impressive result. There were so many orders that they had to invite back all the employees and to add second line of production. Just in one year holders repaid all their loans and even opened additional business. And the keys to the success were direct numbers and virtual office thanks to the site http://telnum.net/ . Do you think this story is real? Has anyone used such services? Tell me please, maybe there are other methods besides this? - Dear Anonymous,
