Intimidation Tactics With One Bully

I was bullied by a bigger bully than myself for lightly punching a girl in the arm at lunch because she was making me throw out my lunch while at the same time, humiliating me into getting lunch with more calories than that lunch which I was bringing from home. Okay, so he punched me in the back. But then my sophomore year, and his junior year, I stood up for myself one day by saying, “if you ever touch me again,” I learned about how to use a well-placed threat. I learned how to set a boundary. Yes I was learning how to establish consequences also. He never bothered me again.
