Re: What popular tropes do you hate?

[(Anonymous)]

Bully/victim. As someone who was bullied I don't see how there can be any romance in it and just think people are trying to justify it like how people used to go "if a boy pulls your hair he likes you" on us victims.

Haha, I like it because I was bullied! I can totally see why it bothers people though.

Nobody is trying to justify anything to you. Their fiction is not about you and your bully. They don't know you. They're just writing what they like, and some people like fictional situations where "He pulls your hair because he likes you" is true for the characters in the fic.

So you had to insert this absolutely bully behavior in this thread, hadn't you?

DA

Oh shut the fuck up if this is what you think bullying is perhaps you need to actually study real bullying before spouting off nonsense.

I tried to kill myself because of my systematic and endemic bullying that lasted 12 years of my life and you're going to come in here and be this pathetic and disgusting?

Seriously, this.

Violence can be a form of communication. But what it's communicating in fiction isn't necessarily "I'd kill you if I could, but since that's off the table I will just try to make you wish you were dead." It can also be some variation on "I want power over you because you are very important to me." Even people who were bullied because the people roughing them up loathed them and wanted to squash them like roaches (first sort of communication) can get a sense of mastery and closure from fantasizing about the violence being about their actually being intensely wanted (the second kind).
