3 kids, walking down the street. beat me up, stole my phone. I know this is a weird place to post this, hope it's not against the rules. But I spend a lot of time here, and didnt know if anybody else around had experienced this, and how they coped? Had a lot of personal stuff on that phone. No way to wipe it, just deactivated it...doesnt remove anything...private messages are okay if you want to talk...Just looking for people.

Damn, welcome to the club. That's definitely a tough experience, I got jumped by 4 people when I was kid. I was able to move on from the incident fairly quickly from what I remember.

That's life.
Got attacked/bullied myself more than once.
There's nothing to do but move on.

Phone had a lot of...personal things from my girlfriend on it...It kills me the most that they have those now. I'm afraid to leave my house, i don't even feel safe in my house. Obviously the police were useless, they were just there to humor me, i could see it in the guys face when he looked at me. I don't really know how to make myself any more comfortable about this situation....This was proably a dumb place to come...but it's just cuz I spend a lot of time here I was hoping for people with similar thought processes hopefully...

Protect yourself first and foremost but that can land you in prison depending on if you live in a Liberal state and if that person is a minority. For example, my wife is black at one point during the Taste of Chicago my wife was targeted by a black man because she was a black woman with a white man at this point he and three others attacked her and said, "She should be ashamed of herself" I came to my wife's defense at this point after I beat them all up the police and the black men wanted and almost charged me with a hate crime.
Getting attacked, property stolen is like being violated but you must become stronger if you choose to wait and call the police and wait twenty to thirty minutes as some liberal states require in their version's of the Castle Law which requires you to retreat at all times and not defend yourself.

I called the police as soon as I could, but they did nothing. I didnt know much. I was disoriented and had 3 guys on top of me...I see where you are coming from...I'm sorry you went through that. This world we live in...is terrible. Not much I can do to protect myself.

Are you still in school? Bullying probably sucks the most then. But it gets better after that... As for the phone, that's really awful - sorry to hear that.
As for making yourself more comfortable walking out the house, well... you can do it I'm sure. I used to live in a fairly chavvy area and drew negative attention due to being a shy, Chinese kid (I'm not Chinese, but to these kids I was Bruce Lee... or Jackie flipping Chan) - didn't help that getting the school bus was literally down the street. For whatever reason, many years after school, walking down that street has the opposite effect. I'm not exactly sure why that is - it probably comes from a mixture of gaining confidence from uni, training at the gym, being seen training by the local chavs, and working with and actually becoming friends with one of them. Confidence, perception and accidentally forming a bridge. Those seemed to work.
EDIT: Also... maybe consider boxing, muay thai or some grappling stuff (I'm assuming you weren't in a position to run away?). Obviously run if you can... but sometimes you have to throw punches before you can even do that. My Dad often had to do that whenever he walked to school as a kid.

No, bullying in school has never affected me as much as being randomly jumped on the street by 3 kids. I'm out of school. People are terrible. I'm actually afraid to go to work tomorrow, the only girl I'll be working with is like 4 feet tall.

I"m sorry that happened to you op, sounds pretty terrifying. I got freaked out enough a few years ago when some seedy guy snuck up on me and copped a feel never mind being actually robbed.
If this has only just happened today you're probably going to need a bit of time for your mind to settle. If you don't feel safe at home is there anywhere else you can go (friend or girlfriends place) or have someone come over to your place so you're not sitting there by yourself?

I was attacked once by this kid. We were at school and his friends were encouraging him to act up for giggles. There was about ten of his friends and just me. They told me they wanted to ask me something. I should have known something was up when the first time he didn't say anything to me.
When I walked away his friends groaned. Then he called me back. I do not even remmeber what he said to be honest. The next thing I know he struck me once across the face. I ran up to him and got hit again. That's when the teacher stopped it.
Being in any fight sucks period. You are either hurting someone or being hurt. Neither is fun. Maybe people are getting more desperate about getting money. You likely will not forget about it for a long while. Just remember it's not your fault.

Perhaps depending on your age you might consider moving to another state (If you're in the U.S) one with more friendly laws to where you can carry weapons and defend yourself if attacked. I know each and every day I carry an expandable baton due to the race riots here in Chicago which the media does not report other than saying we are not the murder capital of the United States with more deaths here than in the Wars we are in.
It's getting really bad over here yet I am too broke to go and it's getting worse here day after day in Chicago .
This happens here daily

Sucks Man,
See, about 3 Years ago when I was living in My last Apartment, I was Grabbing a Drink at the 7-11 round the block, and I got Mugged, Dude took Most of my stuff (Luckily I forgot my Phone) He even took my Jacket (It was a gift from my Grandfather too, I really miss that Jacket),
It'll Take some time Man but just Hang in there y'know it get's better when the Fear and Shock Wears off.

If it's a really bad neighborhood, then moving somewhere better is obviously the safest thing to do. Knowing how to defend yourself and learning to be comfortable with confrontation is certainly a good idea, and you get there with practice (about the only good thing I gained from working fri/sat night shifts at a convenience store... *shudders*), but the main thing is putting yourself into a position where you can avoid danger entirely. Speaking of which, I really need to take up muay thai...

Unfortunately this is the best part of the city...And I feel like no amount of fight ability would have saved me from three kids and their combined weight on top of me unexpectedly. But I do plan on working out and training...

I was jumped once when I was in grade school, it was terrifying. It was one of the many reasons I studied the martial arts. Anyone who jumps me these days will pay a steep price, learn from the experience, and take it upon yourself to be prepared for the worst in mankind, while hoping for the best.

I was mugged at knifepoint on my own block, once. But I didn't get hurt at all and only lost about $30, so it's not really the same thing. It was more like a comedy routine, actually; between me being very drunk and the kid's thick Bed-Stuy accent, I couldn't understand a word he was saying.

Hey Sdrol117.
I have been jumped 3 times in my life. One was after school walking down a route through a forest, second was on a bridge hidden behind trees and the third was on a friday night.
The first time i got jumped was because i had a fight with some lad at school, he got his friends to follow me and got me. Lost my house keys, phone and school bag.
Did not lose anything the second time but i believe i was a victim of racism. Asian men atatcked me in an Asian neighborhood.
The third time i was in Birmingham and got attacked by two grown men. I did ntohing to them and i apparently shoved one of them.
Overall, don't bring yourself down. Stay away from Asian neighborhoods. It's not racist but you just need to becareful around such areas.

Always expect the unexpected. It sounds counter intuative, but essentially it pays to be on your guard, or at least be aware of your surroundings and people.
And martial arts and working out do certainly help, I've got a fair bit bigger, over the years because of both, but getting jumped by a couple of guys is never a nice experience, even with the training of sparing with 2 guys trying to beat the hell out of you. I was a bit older when it happened. If you do have to fight, make sure it's absolutely necessary, not to satisfy ego. I was able to hold my own, but I didn't exactly walk out unscathed.

It must not be so serious... You could beat them after several months of training in martial arts!
A taxi driver wanted me to pay 500 currency instead of 300 (that was the fair price) few days ago, but I refuse. A fight could be started but I showed some Renegade words and gesture and he went away >

If your in the UK, you know chavs can be pretty scary. Sure they act hard, but there are some who really are psychos and i was a victim of those psycho chavs. The guy was massive compared to me and i got my ass handed on a silver platter complete. I was really paranoid after school when walking back home.
Never ****** off a chav, they always will have mates to hunt you down.
