Girls if your boyfriend didn't fight 2 armed thugs would you think lowly of him?

My brother is worried about what his girlfriend might be thinking of him right now. They got recently robbed 2 weeks ago.
The only thing my brother did is held his girlfriend tightly and let the 2 bad guys steal anything they want, even their wallets too. He (being 6'2 and a decent fighter if he wanted to) admitted to being just as scared as she was and didn't want to fight them, didn't want neither him nor his girlfriend to get hurt.

Yes

No

Your brother did exactly what he should have done: he kept them both safe.

I no longer see the point of armed robberies: wallets? who carries around more than a small amount of cash these days? Credit cards and ATM cards? they can be quickly reported as stolen and replaced. Because of my phone, I no longer wear a wrist watch. Want the phone? It's 7 years old and I'm long overdue for a new one. It's yours. Want my car? It's leased... take it, and let Nissan and State Farm worry about it!

When I'm on the street, there's nothing on my person that I'm going to risk my life for.

Exactly. He would've been killed (then probably his girlfriend too) if he would've put on a Mr Macho attitude and fought them.

Mans did the best he could, especially if they were armed. Likely would've wound up dead if he tried anything so can't blame him for just trying to keep her safe at least

No. Only idiots who wind up dead can't learn to pick their battles.

No. It’s not like the movies. Especially if they had weapons. Nothings worth pride.
