For the last few months I have been absolutely harassed by a variety of people. It is no longer avoidable or ignorable and I am sick of this. I have been hit in the back of the head, grabbed by the wrist and have been in numerous verbal arguements. I can`t go outside without being called a slut and harassed. The newest little "ring-leader" of the pack has been trying so hard lately to bring my friends and I down.
Tomorrow is our last day at school (we just pick up report cards and yearbooks) and I know she's going to try to "accidentaly walk into me." I am going to grab her by the throat, get up her face and tell her to leave me alone. That`s not all though, it's going to be a fight and I can no longer avoid this harassment. They are jealous of me and I am not the typical shy, loner "type" who is "bullied."
The situation of fighting is entirely new to me, but what else do I do. Where is best to punch her if she makes it into a full on fist fight. I have to stand up for myself here, I have had enough. No, talking this out isn't an option she needs to be put in her place. I am interested in full on aggressive behaviour for this.
Getting harassed is a reason to get upset, BUT no reason to get harassed & get yourself in trouble. If this has been happening to you for a while, why haven't you said anything to an adult about it? Do your parents know? How about school officials?
It might seem a little late to tell them now since school is ending, but it doesn't matter. Tell them anyways. Other than that, do what you're planning & if at all necessary to punch, get her in the jaw or something. But try not to fight too much. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

I've been there myself and it was what I had to do and even though I didn't hit the guy even nce I got my point very clearly across and it came to a stop after that.
If she does get in your face as you say she might... and I do stress the word IF (DON'T go out looking for a fight), then do what you said. Grab her, throw her against the wall and tell her to back the f*@% off because you're starting to get very impatient with her constant crap. Say it like you mean it (which I've no doubt you will anyway) and just that alone should do the job and you won't need to do anything else. say it, look her in the eye when you do and walk away. If she starts anything after that then fair enough (which might come to where you may have to defend yourself) otherwise just leave it at that - you'd have made your point and got the message across your not going to tolerate it anymore.
When you walk away just watch your back - incase she decides to run up and grab you from behind. I suggest you also wear no earings, try have our hair tied back so it doesn't get all over the place or in your face and no rings of any kind. Although many will say they will do great if you hit someone soft metal in rings bends very easily so even though the other person might suffer some minor cuts from your ring you'll be the one with a crushed finger trapped by a metal ring (it's not a nice sight). If it gets to a fight protect your face and your head and punch with a fully clenched fist (practice is always a good idea). Just be warned that getting into a fist fight if you hither wrong you can injure yourself as well. You may suffer a broken wrist, fractured knuckles and injuries such as these especially if you hit wrong so be forewarned of this. Just keep your guard up, keep your balance and take a hit when you see an opening. Other than this I can't really advise much else because it's hard to show someone how to defend themselves through a web site in 5 mins. :[ Good luck though and just remember what I said at the start - AVOID A PHYSICAL CONFRONTATION IF YOU CAN. It should only resort to that as a last resort and only as a means of self defence.
