Question

Is there any law against verbal abuse?
I've been subjected to verbal abuse by a number of people who i study with. from ***** to slut, they've used every possible bad word for me. they wrote it on walls, on chairs, msgd on fb through somebody else's account, posted status (not naming me but the description evident over me). it has reached a point where i've started questioning my own character. its been around 1.5 years that ive been facing this. a recent event caught me off-guard. i've lost it this time. my eyes are swollen nd i just want to finish my life. im asking god if he is ever gonna take revenge from those people. cuz i haven't seen even a bit of karma, though ive prayed for it so many times. all that was my fault was that i was a bit reserved. i didnt talk to every other guy. if i knew a guy was flirting i would let him know that i wasnt stupid enough to fall for his acts. they're all doing this now. nd im tired. is there any law?? any law, national international or religious, any kind of law that would punish them? is there anything i can do to make them regret over the harassment they've done? i feel abused, i feel mentally raped. its a strong word, but that is how i feel. i just want to know if there is ANYTHING i can do in this situation? if i kill myself they'll b happier cuz they'll win. i dont want them to win. how do i make them regret

Answer 1

"Im asking god if he is ever gonna take revenge from those people. cuz i haven't seen even a bit of karma, though ive prayed for it so many times".



That is not going to happen, just forget it. You have to deal with it, and this is how.. Cultivate some friendship. You cannot be an island in sea of people. Look for the real bad guy and make him a friend. Life is a game. Being a friend does not mean you will sleep with him. It is temporary, may be, cause you may get to like him.. Some of these actions are admiration that turned sour because you will not acknowledge them. Everyone needs a sounding board, recognition, admiration, and friendship, that's why people are in social media. So do some opening up to society, and you will be happier for it. You will still be hurt, but it is the way forward, and you will learn along the way and be a better person

Answer 2

Abuse is abuse physical or verbal. I would advise not to continue to treat your significant other in such a manner because it can only lead into an even worse incident later down the road. If you have done it in public and disturbing the peace and the officer decides its threatening then its his/her decision. Discretion is a powerful tool.

Answer 3

Let me guess... Are you a teen girl? There are cyber-bullying laws, but there will always be "haters". From Rebecca black to Madonna. Live your life, ignore the idiots , take a break from social media (impossible right?) delete facebook , and don't associate with negativity. High school/college drama such a small part of your overall life. Piss them off and be successful in whatever you try.
