Have you ever gotten into a physical fight? (blood, hell)

[Djamila]

I've gotten into a few, three or four I think.

My worst was probably with my mother-in-law, just because it was my mother-in-law.

I got into a fight defending a Jew once - hahaha. I'm still waiting for my Nobel Peace Prize for that one. Eva's not the kind of girl who gets angry, she just gets hurt - that's what set me off, I think. If she was angry, I wouldn't have snapped.

I got into a fight with a teacher once. One of the girls in my row was putting her books away, and he came down and slammed his fist on her desk, and spun her back in her desk physically and said he didn't dismiss the class. And I pushed him. Wasn't much to that one, but I guess it still counts.

I got into a fight in Norway. We were at a cafe, sitting down, and some guy came over with this flirty expression and said God knows what in Norwiegan. Dejana, who was with me, speaks Norwiegan - she's been living there for years. She said we were Bosnian, and he said something that made her stand up and start yelling. I don't know what. Then he grabbed his breasts like he was a woman and started spinning his tongue so Dejana grabbed him and slammed his head on our table and I kicked him while he was walking away - lol.

That's about it really?

I grew up fighting everyone and everything. Until one year in high school I almost maimed a kid for no good reason whatsoever. That scared some sense into me, and I vowed I would never fight again except in self defense of myself or others. Strange how very few fights I've been in since I quit walking around with a chip on my shoulder.

naturally i have, and since ive been doing it for so long (first actual all-out fist fight was in 4th grade) and ive gotten into a few every year since, dont worry, im always on the defensive, people just dont like me....funny thing is i usually win, not all the time, but mostly

Yep, I've had all of one physical fight in my life (not counting primary school scuffles.)

It was back in high school when I'd finally had it with hiding and started being less circumspect about being gay. Eventually I ended up essentially being "out" and, in general, it wasn't as bad as you might think (the worst part was actually other gay boys, if you can believe that.)

Except for one thing. One of the local tough boy yobs decided it would be a cool idea to go *** bashing one day when I was cutting through a bush area on my way home after school. He acted the big man for a bit and when I didn't really take the bait, he got physical. It wasn't really a very spectacular fight and I ruined a good shirt. For all his posturing, he wasn't really anything special. I walked away with a few very painful but easily concealed bruises on my upper body. He got a bloodied up face, a black eye and, I was told by one of his mates a few days later, a broken rib for his trouble.

I was pretty much left alone after that.

i have only been in one physical fight, and it started and ended with me smashing someone with a chair.... not my proudest moment, but the guy had been bullying me, calling me, and playing the tough guy a hell of a lot. he got me on a very very bad day, and i stood up to him. he didn't back down, infact he met the challenge, and pushed me backwards over the desk.

this is the same guy who, with his mates, had spent a lot of time picking on me, threatening to find me after school etc, and had on occasion tried to do that. after pushing me over, he turned away from me to jeer with his mates. i simply stood up, picked the chair up, and smacked him round the head with it. safe to say i got no hassel from him or his mates again.

i really am not proud that i did it, but in all fairness, he had it coming.

I've been physically assaulted once, but I didn't fight back.

[Green Gaia]

Once. I won. My sister was ridiculing my "lesbian" friends (who weren't lesbian, just band geeks). Haha, little did she know.... lol. I punched her in the mouth.

[Buttercup]

Yep, once in the 7th grade. We planned to "meet" in the courtyard between our apartments. Had our own audience that showed up after hearing about it. I can remember us throwing a few punches and then it was over....we were so out of breath. Haa! The worst part was I didn't wear any shoes and stubbed and scraped my toes till they were a bloody mess.
