Sure, being on the receiving end of a mean act is an unpleasant experience. However, ponder this: if there were no mean people, how could we know who the nice ones were? It's a matter of yin and yang, light and dark, apples and oranges. If we never experienced any unpleasant events, we would be unable to appreciate the pleasant ones.
Sorry if my reply sounds like useless drivel, but that's how I feel.
...Hopefully it helps put things into perspective, though.
