I did as well back in sixth grade (first year of middle school). This kid (younger brother of our a local high school football star) kept flicking my ear lope when he past by my seat during first period. He did it a total of three times. Everyone laughed at me, etc. So on the fourth time he came around, I just kicked my left leg out, bam, he fell on his face. Easy. Kids now laughed at him. He then told me I will "get it' at the end of the period and insulted my whole family. blah blah.
As soon as the 1st period bell rang, he was at the door talking all this shit and wouldn’t let anyone pass through. Being a twin and getting my brother (weaker twin) out of trouble in the fifth grade, I pursued to the door and started to fight. This younger brother of a HS football star didn't know how to fight. So he just put me into a head lock and didn't let go. After about a couple of minutes on the floor an unknown teacher got us both off the floor. He still maintained that headlock. I then slipped my arm between him and I to break away and gave the best THREE UPPER CUTS in my life. I blew the air out of him and he NEVER bothered my again and actually we became friends.
What came after is even a longer story. As a 6th grader i had so much respect from sixth and seventh graders. Kids were acting like they knew me. What I did not know was I open a can of a shit storm. I grew up in East of Los Angeles, 99% Hispanics during the early 90's and having done what I did just brought me more assholes to my front door. By the time I was in eight grade I had high school guys come to my middle school to fight me.
In high school I just became a bigger target. But what I learned at a very young age was HOW TO AVOID fighting.
And yes to this very day (35 years old) I still get my twin brother out of fights.
Oh yeah my point is, it came to a point where my presence (with my fighting history), I then was looked at as a Bully. Sucks.
