Have you ever been in a fight?

Question

Not proud of it, but yes.

It happened in two phases. There was a point in my life where I used to pick up on others, and then there was a point after that when I was the one getting picked on.

When I was a kid, I was a bully. That's not something I'm proud of, and it's a time that I would like to forget. At some point in my childhood, I changed schools and met new friends that made me into a better person. As Karma would have it, I was getting picked on now for being the nice dude, but I didn't let it slide. I was very tough would win fights even when I was outnumbered. All of these fights at this stage where in self-defense, and I would stop as soon as they would surrender. There were times where I did get my ass whooped of course, but I never ran away from anyone and never snitched.

The worst memory I have was knocking someone unconscious and breaking their arm, that was probably the most angry I got and even though it was in self-defense, I'm not proud of it either.

I got transferred to a private school in my high school years, and that's where the fighting stopped. People in that school were less aggressive and more civilized, and the school had a strict no fighting policy, so of course I wasn't gonna be the one to break it. That's not to say that there were times where I got into confrontations that almost escalated, but at that point I either did the right thing and walked away, or was separated by a crowd as to not allow the situation to progress any further.

I can say today that my last fight was back in 2014, so about 8 years ago. I do have a black belt in Karate and I take boxing classes, but I have never felt the need to use them. One thing I would say is important for me is learning to control my anger in these situations, even if technically I'm not the one in the wrong.

yes...

I've had to get involved in fights in the past a few times before because well, I had no choice but to do so, lol

kiddy fights, school fights, stupid fights while young... nowadays, more of a grown up those things just stopped

although I've always been trained to fight and I know how to... I am not a fighter (not into physical violence or aggression), but just some times with some guys, they have to be put back in place and brought up to their senses

Kayla12345 · Accepted Answer

Yes, I have done but it was verbal fighting. I don't like having conflicts, and believe it or not I had to learn to stick up for myself the hard way. Because the world can be a very cold/wicked place. I got in a fight because a girl told my mum to shut up even though she picked me up crying. Basically to cut the story short, it was Halloween and there was a group of people that went to my school who was trying to egg my friend but it hit me. I had a lot of people pulling me back as my mood can go from 0 to 100 very quick, but I let my words beat her to it. No one liked her anyway she was a bully. The next day she said sorry.

First fight was in 8th grade against the most well-known bully in my school at the time.

I punched her once in the mouth which caused her braces to split through her lower lip and gash my knuckle to the bone.

She scrambled away covering her face and cried.

That’s the day I learned that violence can actually solve many things.

Fuentes · Answer

Yeah growing up you had to get down, since I was young growing up in ghetto apts everytime we moved into a new one the kids outside you had to catch fades and then we was all close friends I rmbr my little bro always ran his mouth to older kids too and I had to fade them also one time he got into a fight and I came and they all packed me hahaha!

Funniest thing everyone I grew up with fighting all just happen to claim the same hoods when I grew up their was two neighborhoods I moved around in one was GD and the other was Crip, so I never had to gang bang but everyone i assumed I was one or the other cause who I knew so certain neighborhoods i could not go through & we all had eachothers back in middle school and High-school agaisnt all enemigos and fonk.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

Yes, but I try to avoid them now. When I was in highschool I used to purposely piss off people who I thought were assholes because I thought they were good targets for my aggression (like if someone started bullying the bullies)

But then I had to fight my mom's boyfriend and it just got a little too real for me.

mstbooblover · Answer

Absolutely never willingly, never initiated by myself, and only to defend myself after having been bullied a little too much and too many times at school and the border school. My reactions may sometimes have been dangerous because of too much cropped up anger. Bad memories not to be proud of, but no regrets for what I did.

God_of_Thunder · Answer

Only a few times in my life, but yes.

I'm not the kind of person that gets into fights at the drop of a hat, so I'll only do so if it's either self defense, or in defense of someone else. Fortunately, those situations have only happened very infrequently.

Sparkie460 · Answer

Yes I have. When I was in school I beat up the school bully. He tried bullying me. I pissed him off because I made fun of him and he took a swing at me, hit me in the jaw. I layed him out. He had a broken nose and jaw when I got done with him. I try not to fight but if someone takes the first swing, I'm going to make damn sure I throw the Last

Hospital public safety for six years. If we aren’t fighting at least 3x an hour we’re not protecting our staff.

Sour-rose · Answer

Yup. All of them I won by default because I was a good girl victim who did nothing wrong. These days, if I get in a fight, well this ain't seein' who's better, it's who's gonna need a hospital or a coffin when we're done.
