The person may try to stalk you or harass you to undermine you or take advantage of your personal thought process. If he or she is a physically or verbally abusive person, your best defense against that person is to confront the person directly to demand that he or she stop. Students are often intimidated because of their physical size, or because they have a family member they love. Being belittled can make a bullying person even more aggressive. Psychological and social withdrawal can both impact the way that the person treats you. If the intimidation's behavior is something you think a person would does to you, it's better to confront the person. When dealing with someone like that, it's easy to believe that your work is sub-par and that you need to do more. However, sometimes your work is just as good, if not better, than that of your co-workers.
