"Do you sort things out yourself or do you leave it to the police?
Never needed the police yet."
I havent needed the police yet either, but I've been told that it would be the best thing to do. The thing is my pride is getting the better of me. |

Deoends what is is..my instinct is sort it your self "
Same here, depends what it is. I’m a grown woman and will fight my own battles, but if I feel it puts myself or my children in danger then I’ll involve the police. If it’s minor I’ll just ignore. |

If you mean you have to decide between physically fighting someone I.e “ beat them up to show them a lesson” and calling the police to deal if they are harassing you etc then my suggestion is this.
One if it’s the first option I would suggest having a real honest talk with yourself in what does it achieve? It is blindingly obvious the mind you own is obscured by the Alpha male attitude and can only be compared to childlike school yard behaviour. Running around telling people I might fight someone is the attitude of a teenager , plus this really shouldn’t beed deciding.
If it’s a police matter then I suggest take it up as exactly that with the law on you’re side. One punch to hard and the victims dead, you’re behind bars for a very long time an over something trivial I imagine.
I think my answer is clear and any adult will apply the same logic.

I have been known to rumble, and in the words of Gerry Cinnamon
"And I'm no' scared of dying,
I'll fight any man,
I might no' be the strongest,
But I'll do what I can"
Takes a lot to push me to that place, unless of course it's a fist flying at me and it's go time.
I was always one of those people where once it was over that was it, done. No repercussions, finished and final.
Now tho, well, I don't like to fight although there are a couple of people that I'll drop if I ever come face to face with, one of them being my own sister.
But nah, unless it's there and kicking off I'd not bother. Too much risk of weapons involved and shit getting out of control. I'd try to go the legal way about things as I've fuck all to hide from or get done for by the police myself.

Old me, fight, any situation, I would never involve the police. Raised in pubs by a family similar to gypsies (but not) it was the way things were.
Now? Police.
It is called growth. To handle things using your head rather than your emotions.
Although sometimes neither is needed and you can walk away, forget and sleep easy. |

Police if at all possible.
I think now I would only ever fight if my life is in danger and I have no alternative.
I've only had a couple and I can look after myself but it's not an option I like to consider.
Fighting to show someone a lesson or for an other reason is pointless. However much you think you can beat the other person the outcome is too unpredictable.

"Do you sort things out yourself or do you leave it to the police? "
Nearly always try and sort it out, if I can , it’s like with employment or business. Once you do things formally there’s usually no going back and the results are slow and painful. The exception is if others are at risk beyond my control or interest |

Depends entirely on the situation.
I can stick up for myself no problemo BUT do i want to risk seriously hurting someone (by accident) and my kids being without me for however long i’m punished for?
Cos i tell you now, that would hurt me more than any punch. |

I thought we were progressing as a society?
Self defence and conflict resolution are two different things.
If you go around physically assaulting people to resolve things then your a moron in my books. |

Bravo. I agree, only fight if you have to defend yourself because someone has started a fight with you. Otherwise call the police or deal with it verbally. |

Hubby is trained in self defence and de-escalation techniques so would always try to resolve things himself. A neighbour was playing loud music at 3 in the morning. Not wanting to "bother the police as they have more important things to do" he went to have a word. He was surrounded by four guys, but within ten minutes, had an apology and the music stopped. No punches were thrown and we've never had a problem again. You don't have to be violent to be tough, just clever |

A smart person would never be the first to jump to violence.
Sure if someone is coming at you or your family you do what you can as a last resort.
But if it is you being the aggressor as you can't handle a situation it means you need to work on your self control.
A fight is a random situation, one punch is enough to do serious damage that can be life changing. There is no way I'm stupid enough to casually invite
Loss of job
Time in jail for assault
Either taking a life or losing my own over some silly thing such as pride when in 100 years it will not matter a joy who said what to whom.
Also you may thing your bigger but nowadays things like this esculate, knifes, revenge attacks on other family members etc.
All that for the sake of pride or have a cool head and it wash off.
As I say if you are being attacked then yes you have to fight, but never throw the first punch. |

I agree with this, it is childish behaviour but going to the police is a waste of time too. I believe if you can't stand up for yourself, walk away. People that are like that will always be fighting and never know peace. Leave them too it, life's too short to care about other people's pettiness. |

I'm surprised to see a grown man ask this to be honest. It's something I'd expect from a teenager.
If someone goes for you then of course you're within your right to defend yourself.
Any other circumstances then no. Walk away. Be an adult.
And if it's that serious the police need to be involved then I'd advise phoning. |

I know someone that tried to defuse a situation and was stabbed 36 times, died as a result. You just wouldn't know what to do for the best. Keep yourself safe and only fight when cornered to do so. |

It takes at least two to fight to create conflict to bring pain and hurt to others whether verbally of by throwing punches. The angry aggressive and noisy will always seek conflict to hurt and cause pain by imposing their negativity on others.
Go quietly amongst all the noise and confusion for the world is a beautiful place...

There is no need to punch someone to the head to hurt them.
Obviously this is the last resort, but some people just will not listen to reason.
