Alright, im gonna move, its been confirmed with my parents, but we dont know what school to go to. So that means i have to wait until October or something to move. I need help! I have no friends at achool because they all hate winx club and pick on me about it(thats why im moving) but i dont know how ta live with it for any longer! I cant stand it! Can anyone give me advise?

Well..... Depends on your way of dealing with critisism, but my friends (and other people) stopped insulting me for liking Winx Club after I stopped being overly defensive about it. Now they just see it as just one part of me, and respect me all the same.

Yeah.

Half the reason I originally came here was to pick fights with people. Unfortunately for my inner Troll, people here aren't that inclined to defend the show with the same intensity that I had hoped, so it sorta stopped being fun. And now, even though I hate the show, I get along just fine here.

I think it's really unfair that you are picked on just because you like winx.
Sounds like the people at your school find it hard to accept your opinions. Even though you say that 'everyone' at your school hates winx club, I reckon that you will find that majority of the people are actually ok with the fact and it is just a particular group of people that are giving you a really hard time.
I don't know this situation in depth but your parents know what's best for you so if they are considering you moving schools it must be the best way out of this problem.

PS Your avatar is beautiful! May I please have that picture?

That's really unfair that everybody gives you a hard time, although I'm sure a bunch of people like something that they hide. My friends gave me a hard time last year(when I was still in Primary school) for a certain likes of my own. Anyway, in the meantime, just go and sit with quieter people, who may not have as many friends. I'm sure not everyone thinks it's silly you like Winx, you only notice the ones who are vocal about it.

@Morry good to hear you get along with people now even if you hate winx

Getting picked on just because someone likes winx? I think it's just weird and unfair, some people just aren't very accepting it seems. I remember being picked on because i watch Pokemon. I stopped being defensive about it and the bullying stopped after that. By the way, even my dad watches Winx and my mom also watches it sometimes

Posted by: bloom_daphne Jun 17 2009, 12:53 PM

I agree, that is unfair. Besides liking winx club is no grounds to insult someone. Just ignore them.

Posted by: Tash Jun 17 2009, 2:06 PM

How thanks for the tips everyone because I will use them. Thnaks alot!

Posted by: Bloomwinxmagic Jun 17 2009, 2:12 PM

I agree too, I don't like people, who don't respect other humans hobbies, opinions etc.
for example my classmates won't like winx club, I don't think that most of them heard about it(because most classmates in my class are boys), but if I'll tell them they will laugh at me, but they will talk to me very friendly. I always joke to my classmates and they joke to me, but we are friendly to each other.

sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand what I wrote.

You might consider being a little more careful with whom you share your love of Winx with in the future. Not that there is anything wrong with Winx, sheesh I like it. However why give dolts any weapon to use against you if you do not have to?

There will always be jerks out there. The crude and the boorish. The rude and the insecure who lash out at others. They are like a force of nature. Better to avoid them than fight a raging river.

I agree with many of the above posts, that people should respect each other and their views. But until that day comes, we need to be wise and protect ourselves where necessary.

You will find new friends at your new school who are trustworthy and like you for you. Once you find them, share it.

[noguests]Thats not fair, at all! I got teased about it a bit a few years ago, but if you dont bring it up yourself, chances are itll be forgotten soon. Plus, if they say anything bad, just be like whatever and move on, dont let it get to ya. Good luck with dealing with it in the future. [/noguests]

Posted by: winxclubrox23 Jun 17 2009, 10:55 PM

Oh that's why!! I've been wondering why you joined if you don't even like the show for awhile now, and kept forgetting to ask.

---

Anyways, a couple years ago, I had to defend Winx Club to quite the extent. I'm not really going to get into details, except for one thing which is: if you ever have to defend Winx Club to the same extent, ask Kell (Kell.Shadows) for help with it. She's freaking brutal...Lol. But long story short, they never stopped being an idiot about it, and I let it bug me. Eventually I realized that if I didn't let it go, she'd never go away. So I did. I haven't heard from her again. Just remember that all these people want is for you to get mad. If you get upset about it, you're doing exactly what they wanted.

Posted by: Boo Jun 18 2009, 2:24 AM

I'd suggest that as well.
If you are being teased about it, I would also suggest to tell others with caution about it. Like Fortress Guy said, there is nothing wrong with liking Winx (heck, I'm 16, going to be 17 in August and still like it), but to avoid the teasing and negativity, maybe you should treat it as something you only tell those who you know won't care.

It is a shame that others feel they must judge and hurt others in order to give themselves a feeling of power and security... It's best, if any of the teasing continues, to just ignore them (since, like others have mentioned, if you show them that you're upset, they'll continue with their teasing.)

That, and I have another addition: At your age (I'm guessing your either going into middle school soon or are in middle school), people are just beginning to try to figure out what kind of person they want to be, and that can lead to some chaotic situations. Most people have a difficult time during middle school (it's very common), but just be sure to keep your head up and ignore what others think (because what they think does not matter; what matters is what you think about yourself.)

Simple at your new school don't tell anyone, that what i did. I know you should be allowed to be open without fear of bullying but life is evil and bullying is a fact of life for thoughs different and don't act like sheep (follow the trend of the biggest group of people) also you have to be one of the strongest to avoid bullying. (i have a very corupted view of the world)

Posted by: Tash Jun 18 2009, 11:15 AM

yep thats what i tried to do but ever since i told them they've been bringing the subject up themselves. like one time some guy asked me(you mightve heard this already) "Do you still collect those Winx Dolls?" jeez! I would collect them if they sold them.

Posted by: Bloomwinxmagic Jun 18 2009, 12:42 PM

good luck in new school!

Posted by: humbu111 Jun 18 2009, 7:28 PM

[noguests]If its been going on for a while, just be like "That is so old", roll your eyes and walk away. Thats what I did (not about being teased about Winx, though, it was something else) and it worked pretty well. [/noguests]

Posted by: Tom273 Jun 18 2009, 8:50 PM

i agree with humbu's advice it's good

Posted by: jsispitz Jun 23 2009, 11:08 PM

I'm gonna be blunt about this: Screw 'em. If people can't like you for who you are, then they're not worth it. Mean people don't deserve your friendship.

Posted by: Tash Jun 24 2009, 10:24 AM

yeah they are stupid thanks for advice

Posted by: SuperChick Jun 26 2009, 12:34 AM

the last person that picked on me we got into a fight and lets just say girls and esspecially guys hit hard i regret hitting him cause he hit back ! and gave me an black eye not fun

Posted by: Tom273 Jun 26 2009, 2:59 PM

ouch, sorry to hear you got hit back. Guys who hit girls are the worst kind of people.

Posted by: P-girl Jun 26 2009, 3:00 PM

But.... hitting first isn't the right way, either.

Posted by: SuperChick Jun 26 2009, 4:58 PM

but it was my fault i hit first big mistake

Posted by: humbu111 Jun 26 2009, 5:06 PM

[noguests]Not a good choice to make it physical, but I just hope you got him good before he he hit you back. Am I allowed to say that? [/noguests]

Posted by: mightymarty2 Jun 26 2009, 6:57 PM

i don't mean to sound sexist but if a female hits you then why cann't a guy defend himself, you would hope it never came to that but thats another point

That existed when females had little rights, why when they are equal is it not just as wrong both ways

Posted by: SuperChick Jun 26 2009, 9:08 PM

yea thx



i totally agree that's why it's my fault

Posted by: Tash Jun 30 2009, 1:00 PM

in the olden days when a guy hits a girl(no matter what she did first) he was known as a coward

Posted by: winxclubrox23 Sep 27 2009, 4:11 AM

Not really no. Guys could do whatever they wanted with their wives/daughters etc. and the women weren't allowed to say anything about it.

Posted by: rano0oma Sep 27 2009, 9:53 PM

well tash about the teasing it's just not right to tease on people cause of what they like, so what you like winx club and they don't...they shuld just mind their own business and at your new school try to pick people who r more understanding and that would respect other peoples' opinions....

as 4 the guy hitting girl thing it's not a good thing 4 a boy to hit a girl, ask me why...cause the girl is more fragile than the boy, boys are harder than girls (that's pretty obvious don't you think?) and in my culture the boy that hits a girl is considered a coward or a baby or mentally disordered that's why boys here don't hit girls or do anything bad to them...i have boys that are my friends and me and my other friends (girls) hit them a lot (sometimes as jokes) but they can't lay a hand on us!!!

Posted by: SuperChick Sep 28 2009, 1:08 PM

it was my fualt i hit him first....
i aint fragil and i am certinaly not nice

Posted by: SuperChick Sep 28 2009, 1:08 PM

Posted by: mikirisoul Oct 27 2009, 9:04 PM

i have the same problem tash

Posted by: WinxBloomEnchantix Jul 7 2010, 12:57 PM

I also got that problem too :3 But they just say, but still a friend of mine xD
Whenever I draw Winx fanart, then show it to my friend, the boys, always, would say,"eek! Winx Club! Winx Club suck! Winx, lalalalalala Winx, its a power of fairy" ... chicken nudget, I always late that :3 So I pretend that I only like Winx for 70%, but still, whenever got to do with Winx, they'll say those same words ~
A new pencil case... Also say,"Eh! You got Winx Club pencil case? Winx sucks!!!" zzz Then I just ignored them
Anyway, this year is my last year in my school, so after graduating, I don't need to hear those things again But maybe next year would... Cuz next year is a year of teenager, so, they'll properly even say more -,-

oh schools they can be so problematic unless your a dull object of everyone elses eye. Be yourself. theres no shame in doing what you want and feel like. Im a bit weird since im 16 and still like cartoons and anime and i draw liek crazy, i used to wear my hair huge and fluffy and my clothes are never copnventional or mainstream. So yeah i got alot of mean-ness in my time. but i found a group that i fit into perfectly. were not cool, never will be. were just us thats all and thats enough.
