You receive a friend request on a social networking site from somebody who used to bully you, would you accept?

Absolutely! In fact, I'd appreciate the opportunity. Not necessarily because of the opportunity to forgive (though I would), but because without exception I've found that the tables always turn on bullies by the time they reach early adulthood.To put it simply, I've never met an extraordinarily successful adult who was a bully as a child - ever.

I'd be interested in seeing how things turned out for them. I've actually sought out people who bullied me in elementary school and befriended them on Facebook multiple times. Half the time, they turn into fairly reasonable adults who I wouldn't mind being friends with, and the rest of the time they are in need of a friend like me anyway.

Depends on it, if it was a mild bully I'd probably do it but if it was the "leader" no way...

Yes. Why not? You never know, maybe they realized what they did to you was wrong and want to say sorry.

Watch Happy Gilmore, people grow up, and they realize their mistakes, and they might be trying to fix them. Happy said sorry, and it ended up that he and the kid he bullied became friends and the kid who got bullied actually saved Happy's life.

Yes I probably would, everyone deserves to be forgiven and given a second chance. It may lead to an apology, and even the start of a new relationship. If the bullying continued on the social network, you can always reverse the add and block them!

No. I don't accept friend requests from people that I wasn't actually friends with. I don't really understand why someone I obviously wasn't friends with would even send me a friend request, if not simply to increase their friend count.

Now on the other hand, if the person sent me a message along with the friend request explaining why they were requesting to be my friend (e.g. Apologized, gave context to why they wanted to be friends, etc. ) I would probably consider it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
