Bad at something, how about someone?
I believe that we can say somebody is bad at something which means he is not good at something e.g. he is bad at music , which means he isn't good at music.
I am thinking how to express someone treating another one badly?
He is bad at me? (I think it's obviously wrong)
He is bad to me? (I never see "bad to")
Please help....
