Wanting to post in the bully thread though I'm never sure if what I'd say would even be of relevance to the thread. Let's just say I hated confrontation so I was bullied a lot. I was too much of a good kid to take action (and when I did, I lost control, snapped, and caved someone's head in with a chair) because I was afraid of getting in trouble (or beaten) for taking things into my own hands, and I've turned into a shrinking violet as a result.
