It’s not wrong to hit someone because they are a girl. I think if you pop somebody cold like that, even if you’re justifiably angry, you’ve got to expect retaliation regardless of your gender. Take Responsibility For Your Actions.
Your friend is an idiot, but let’s be logical about this:
Women like that give us all a bad rap. If it wasn’t an emergency, then frankly she was being kind of demanding. Why couldn’t she have said “I’m worried about something serious, but it can wait 20 minutes. let’s talk as soon as the game is over.” Then after the game she could have told him she was p_issed at him for blowing her off in a more effective way than punching.
If it was an emergency, she should have said that clearly right away, THEN slugged him when he still wanted to watch the game (ok kidding…)
When you are with someone, you should care enough about them to be considerate. Even when you’re upset about something else, consider the other person’s position and decide how you’re going to communicate and respond , don’t just react.
First of all, your friend was pretty much an idiot for thinking that any woman would find that joke funny. There may be a few that will but it ain’t worth it! Yeah, she was wrong for knocking him out. He didn’t have to be such an a-hole about her wanting to talk about her mom, though. But he still didn’t deserve to be KTFO. By the way, his girlfriend is a hardcore martial arts instructor? Am I the only one here thats turned on?
yeesh, ladies and gents, i was joking – the thread was leaning toward the humorous side, so i went with it.
i don’t care how dumb someone talks to their partner – no one has any business hitting the other. she could have left any time, which she did, but she was the one who chose to clock the dumb bastage before she departed.
he may be an idiot, but she’s no better than a thug.
Yeah, this is intended from a humerous point of view, because my friend is a total fool, but I don’t deny there’s a far more serious situation underlying it.
To clear up a few points:
He’s trying to call her to make sure her mum is ok (as he feels there must be somehting major there for her to react like that. I’m not so sure). Also, to apologise for being obnoxious and to tell her that she’d better pick up some cd’s she left at his place. Then she’d better stay the fukk out of his life or he’ll return the favour in spades. He’s trying to contact her more because he’s furious with her and wants her to know that it’s over. I told him that as she won’t see him, then it’s kinda over anyway and he got some free cd’s out of it, but he doesn’t see it that way. I think it boils down to the fact that he’s embarrassed and wants some kind of closure.
She is hardcore and she is a bit of a nutcase, but I would never have expected this from her. It’s the first time anything like this has happened. Wrong joke at the wrong moment, I guess.
And trust me, I am fulfilling my duty. I made him drink a whiskey that stung the sh!t out of his busted lip, I kept moving to his blind side (due his swollen shut eye) so that he would have to turn to face me and at one point I saw a few girls at a table nearby looking at him and pointing. I called them over and told them just what had happened when he went to the bar and they giggled at him all night after that. After they’d giggled for a while I told him why they were giggling. I’m making the most of this, believe that!

He said that he finally managed to talk to her. She was all apologetic, tried to say she wanted to make it up to him, she was just really strung out, etc. He said that he let her waffle on for a few minutes then just said, “Is your mum ok?”
Apparently it has something to do with drinking and threatening self-harm, which is nothing new it would seem.
Anyway, she said her mum would be ok, so my man said, “Good. Come over and get your cd’s tonight and then fukk off.”
Apparently she was horrified “at his attitude”! :eek:
I think anger is replacing embarrassment now. They’re going to talk tonight when she goes over to get her cd’s, but I don’t fancy her chances of staying around long. I just hope she doesn’t whoop his ass again.
he’s not the most tactful in the land, is he? I don’t blame him for being angry, but there’s a better way to handle that. He’s just asking for another arse kicking
you are all wrong. his only mistake was not following up the order with a good beating. if he would have gotten first shot, she’d be the one with the black eye and he’d be the one with a belly full of pie.

Hey, I got my @ss kicked by some dude I was dating. I was a he11 of a lot meaner than that when he called. I got revenge, to boot. He graduated late because of me.
I don’t even know if he suspects I was behind that unfortunate turn of events in his life.
can u imagine getting knocked down with a gut shot…
And her background is in kyokushin, the gut punch is their bread and butter. Download the Bas Rutten video on Sherdog and you’ll see footage of him just crumpling guys (ie. Frank Shamrock) to the floor with gut shots. When asked where he learned to punch the body that viciously, Bas’ answer was always kyokushin.
