Learn pressure points and calm them down until they are rational again

No, I avoid it too.

Many times.

I know that feeling. But I couldn't defend myself enough it hit back.

Just a friendly sparring

once or twice..

To many to count ,I used to feel cold when I fought so I stopped doing it out doors in the winter

Won one, lost one, tied one. Not worth it. Really isn't, on either side.

I've been in a lot of fights

I've been in a few fights.

No, I prefer subterfuge

A long, long time ago as a kid.

I was in quite a few even big brawls when I was 17-23 as I lived in gang affoliated suburbs and was associated. So shot went down all the time. But I am proud to say that I have taken a lot more beatings than I ever given because the ratio was enough for me to say "fuck that shit", now no one punches each other, it's either stab, shoot or any other weapons or it's 20 blokes on to one. It's not like the old days.

Was a dumb fight I smacked my friends butt and they got mad. Guess they thought me was gay.
