The last (and really only) time I got in a fight was last year over spring break. We were visiting a good friend of ours at college. At like 3am she got a call from her on-again off-again ex-boyfriend who wanted to talk to her. He was mad that she had blown him off that night to hang out with her 3 best friends from home. After like 20 mins, my friend had still not come back so I went to look for her. She was just outside the entrance to the dorm and her bf was standing there yelling in her face and making her cry. Let me add that all parties involved are solidly drunk at this point. I went outside and told the guy to back off and get out of her face. He starts talking ***** at me and I throw it right back. I guess that set him off because he tried to throw a wild punch at me. I stepped out of the way and then hit him solidly in the face 4 or 5 times. Suddenly I got punched in the back of the head by one of the guy's friends who happened to walk in on the fights. I got wrapped up with the new guy and took him to the ground. At that point we both stopped because we had no reason to fight. The guy I was originally fighting was done, he wanted no more. According to my friend, he had a black eye and a cut or two on his face the next day. I walked away with a few cuts and scrapes from getting tackled. I tried to resolve the situation without violence, but if someone takes a swing at me, I'm taking them down, hard.
