    I don't really see it as being a bully.. Sort of in a indirect way. I just see it as being two-faced and not trustworthy. That is a private manner.. That just shows they need a character adjustment.. They trusted them enough to even mention the ED.


  • See, the person who was being accused of bullying make it 100% anonymous. No one was pointed out, and the person who was being targeted didn't even know what was going on.

    Then that would be "gossip" about somebody, not bullying. Although if they didn't even say who it was, then they didn't gossip very well.

    Really, it sounds like they were just "venting" about something without identifying anyone. *shrug*

    I have done that before. But it was more because I was frustrated because I tried to get her to see why what she was saying was hurtful and she wouldn't have it.

    What you wanted was viewpoints and feedback. You say you meant well. This thread is not talking about that.

    I would consider it wrong. Given a similar situation for me, nothing was said.

    Would you consider it bullying if you deleted someone from your FL who clearly had an ED, then made a post about it on your wall (which is private so she couldn't see the post)?

    I see it all the time, and someone was just accused of bullying by doing so.

    A lot of people on mf don't want 'friends' with eating disorder.


    I truly thought you meant erectile dysfunction, which made me laugh. I really didn't even think of the other term!

    I believe the person who was deleted didn't believe she had an ED, she was telling people that 400 calories/day is enough if you eat healthy... or something like that.

    Note: I'm just being the messenger.
  • Don't think it's bullying. Just middle-schoolish and mean.
    By the way - what's ED?

    Eating disorder.

    Which promoting on MFP is against the guidelines.

    Eeek. Didn't catch the first time around that you were talking about yourself. I am very embarrassed to be so insulting :( Sorry. Out of curiosity. What did you post about the ED person you unfriended?

    Does anyone else think its odd that we only refer to Eating Disorders as people who dont eat enough? Surely people who overeat have an Eating Disorder too? Dont discriminate!! Or Bully! FFS....dont call anyone pretty too, in case ugly people get offended....lmao.

    This is dumb...Bullying? Seriously? Grow up you arent 9

    You don`t have to be 9 to be a bully/or to recieve bullying behaviour!

    Many people feel bullied or intimidated by people that have a stronger personality!

    the internet makes it worse cos a lot of people that are just normal people suddenly become monsters because they can sit behind their monitors and keyboards and just type s*** then sit back and think that they are `king or queen`

    If your feelings are hurt by words on a screen said by a stranger you'll never meet, you have bigger issues.
