    Peer pressure isn't forced, it's just a temptation. Have I caved in to peer pressure? Yes. Have I overcome the temptation of peer pressure? Yes. 

    The time I caved? Smoking

    The time I overcame? Facebook

    Just 2 examples.

    Turn my head. One time, somebody stared at me so long that I had to do it.

  • Tell someone  to STFU and leave me alone.   I had no other choice.

    It didn't for me ..I was bullied too for being docile Glis...but I remained adamant and never gave in...
    my classmates would bunk classes and I never would...they hated me for that!

  • Yes there was! My Father drove me down to the recruiting station at the time and made me join the Army. Never forgave him for that. Extreme peer pressure!

    Yes, a lot of grit and determination is required for that!

  • Nope. If there's one thing about me it's that I'm incredibly stubborn. If I don't want to do something, I won't do it. You can't "make" me do anything. The only way my peers could've pressured me into something I didn't want to do (and didn't have to do) is put a knife to my throat--otherwise I wouldn't do it!
