Hey, i ain't no fighter, I'm a lover
Professional life? Yeah, right,
Ok, i admit that was a bad example.
If you run into 4 thugs on the street with no other goal than to pulverize you, it's not wimpy to get the heck out of there; it's the smart thing to do.
Well, here i don't agree. I prefer to let them know who they are dealing with.
Standing your ground doesn't mean much when you're lying in the ER with a bloody nose, missing teeth, and a few cracked ribs, or worse if they're carrying weapons.
That's the risk that is involved. The only thing you can do is make sure you can throw your fists when it is most needed.
Maturity is knowing when it's worth standing up for yourself and when it's best to just avoid the confrontation for your own self-preservation.
I agree.
Even if you "won" the fight, what honor is there to be gained from fighting with a bunch of thugs?
The fact that you have escaped a vissit to the hospital and the fact that you were not blown away by some losers that, for some reason, wanted to blow you away.
Neither is walking away like a sissy.There's nothing honorable about that;
Well, true but sometimes you need to do that so that they understand what is going on. I mean, isn't that what "teaching" is all about, hm ?you've just stooped to their level.
In is the same way you should act like this when you are dealing with people that are not willing to reason/listen/hear you out...
