Fist fight with my best friend...how did I lose?

[Anonymous]

Ok so last night me and my friend got into a fist fight. The reason as to why is a loooooong story but basically she is trying to make it seem like I lost with messages like "Don't get into a fight if you can't win!"...lame as hell but yup that's what she's doing.

Ok so first of all she threw the first punch and I wasn't even expecting it. She was going on about how she didn't care what I was saying so why would I be expecting her to hit me. Anyway yes alcohol was involved but the funny part is I only realized she had hit me until after. So I told her to hit me again and then we got into a fight where we were holding hair and punching each other. So I know I hit her straight in the face because she reacted to it but I walked away from the fight with a swollen lip.

anyway now a friend told me she is saying stuff like how I should be embarrassed but it's like 1) you didn't beat my ass 2) you hit me first when I wasn't expecting it 3) seeing as you hit me first it when I wasn't expecting, obviously you would get a good hit 4) its not like I was on the ground crying or anything lmao 5) it was actually my first fight. She has so much talk about getting into all these fights but clearly the sh*t was even so why would she try to spin in around like that? lame as hell

just curious on your thoughts here. I talked to another friend and she says its not like I won, but its not like I got beat up. Do you think the same way? Do you think its stupid that she's trying to make it look like I lost?

I didn't lose

I lost

It was a tie

Nobody won

Well if you've ever noticed boxers or MMA fighters, they don't drop or turn their head. If you can't see your target, then you can't very well hit it can you? So you gotta push through that natural urge to turn away so you can get in there and mess some stuff up.

Second, and it seems like every girl is guilty of this...quit grabbing the damn hair and fight like men. You can only do one thing with your hands at any given time, so if you're grabbing her hair then you can't be firing away on her face. So let go of the hair and start pounding on her face. Now obviously if she grabs your hair and pulls your head back, then she sorta controls your head. So that's why you drill her nose or something because it's much worse of a feeling than getting your hair pulled. Plus she can't see so she'll let go of your hair. Girls fight terribly, so if you come ready for business then you've got a better shot at coming out less bloody.

Next, don't "hammer" your hands on their face. That is a weak "punch" an it's wasted movement. Instead, turn your hand flat instead of vertical, so that your shoulder is behind your arm, and your arm is behind your wrist and hand. Pushing through with your shoulder gives you so much more force than just slapping her with your fist.

DON'T hit the throat. You'll kill someone like that. Don't kick the face or stomp the head, because you can really f*** someone up like that (unless that's what you're going for). Keep feet spread apart somewhat do you won't lose balance as easily.

That's all I got for now.

It's her best friend! She's not attacking a bloody rapist!

Male mind says "Fight to win". Granted, fighting like this with a best friend isn't cool at all, but if she's fighting then at least do it right :)

*facepalm* you worry me, kid.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha BEST QUESTION EVER ASKED!

If she got you off guard then fair enough but someone has to throw the first punch, she was a bit cheeky if she got you when you weren't expecting it. If she's acting cocky then offer her out again, make sure you get the first punch, make her cry

No hair pulling,

No wailing/screaming

No going for the eyes,

Just casually smack her around the chops a few times, put her back in place if it means so much to you

Hahahahahahahahahahaha, thanks again

[Asker]

lol got it.

[Brando]

+1 for not grabbing hair

Well, I guess nobody won .. Haha. Usually in a fight, both participants say they won. I don't think you won, but I don't think you lost either. You're right about her getting a good shot, if you weren't expecting it. To be honest, this all sounds a little immature. I know I'm only sixteen, but even I don't do that sh*t. I'm glad it was your first fight & that you didn't start it. That means you're above that kind of trashy behavior. I generally just think fighting is unattractive and unclassy. So try to stay out of future fights! it doesn't really solve much anwyays. Especially at your age, it seems like something a fourteen year old girl would do or an egotistical cocky male. My advice to you, is yes shes's being an ass, but just ignore her. If you do that, you'll have won the entire thing. It'll just p*ss her off more, she's saying this to get a reaction out of you, if you don't give her one : You win, she loses. It's no fun to her, if she gets no feedback. You can't play games with yourself.

Wtf women get into full on fist fights? Here I thought it was always pillow/slap fights that turn out into make out sessions that involve heavy petting or more -_q the world has lied to me :O

but ya, it sounds like both of you fail if you actually got into a fist fight with a FRIEND and a BEST FRIEND at that :\ alcohol or not, that's not what should happen between friends.

ahahahaha A+ for the first part

you are right but I didn't hit her and was never going to. She did me wrong and now she's trying to make it look like I was crawling away from the fight smh

clearly I'm still a bit mad but it up to her to make it right

[Phoenix1991]

you should of bob and weaved, and then came up with an uppercut. Would of won the fight, but that's my opinion.

[Asker]

lol I didn't bob and weave but when I hit her in the face it was an uppercut lol. It was too difficult to legit fight with alcohol in my system aha

[Phoenix1991]

Lol I guess, but nice

[Anonymous]

[Asker]
