The thing is that even if hypothetically most people told you that, yes, it is a requirement, you should think that they are *insert any swear-word here*.

Yes. Go out and get in one right now. Once you come back and post that you have, we will all validate your status as a man.

maybe, the opportunity hasn't come up, so it's not like i've ever really had to walk away. except the odd time when i was at at discos and some "tough nut" people might walk up and accuse you of insulting them or saying htat you pushed them or whatnot, but they always ALWAYS had a crowd behind them so i always just said it's cool kinda thing, defused it a bit, and then walked away. or maybe i was a baby

group of older teenagers (17ish) at least 5 of them, try and start on a few of us younger, smaller ones, is it pathetic to not fight back? in case it sounds like im being sarcastic, im not, should honour and stuff come first?

It's pretty stupid if you attack the bully. The bully wants that reaction. You should just ignore him.

So what if you had walked away from a fight? :?

No matter the absurdity of the person that is attacking you or provoking you for a fight what is the shame in not wanting to engage in a fight even if it is out of fear?

Its one thing being brave and something else being stupid by not being sensible.

Not always, sometimes they just want to make you miserable without being able to physically dominate you. If you're able, making a bully cry with pain in public can be a pretty effective way of getting them to leave you alone. Worked for me at least.

No.The ability to control yourself is a talent. Kudos to you if you can simply walk away from apotential fight. It shows that you don't need to prove anything to anyone, and you're much morementally and intellectually maturethan the idiot trying to pick the fight.

or else chickens tell themselves that, to help them sleep. i dont know.

tbh, i think i would fight if the situation really called for it, i don't think i could live with myself if i thought i had been a massive coward. i've never had a reason yet.

And if it's a brawl(like you described),it can't be at all-since it isn't a face to face thing,you can elbow a passing guy and then squeeze the goin of a guy behind you.It's a world of opprotunities..:P I really don't see a reason to avoid physical conforntation at all costs.

Nah, they're not worth it. You should never attack someone, unless it's in pure self defense.

not really.. fighting for the right reasons is what makes you mature. There is nothing negative about engaging in physical combat.. and no shame in losing either if you're standing up for yourself.

One of them was because a bigger kid on the playground decided it'd be cool to wrestle me to the ground and jump on me. The other was over an obscene comment directed towards a girl (this fight ended in like two seconds).

I've only really fought my brother and exchanged a few punches with some of my friends over the years, but I've never been in a full out fight either. I don't really think anything of it. I mean I'm 20 now. If I was in a fight and injured the other person I would have a lot to deal with. It's not really worth it

ya, being 17 myself now, it's quite a concern, the charges can be really tough, i guess it really ain't worth it now.

No, don't fight unless you have to. 95% of fights are completely unnecessary. I'm tired of people thinking they should fight over the littlest things.

Just punch the next person you see as hard as you can.

That'll solve your problem.
