Hi everyone so first off last Friday I was walking through the crowd at my school after lunch. I'm a nice guy and I only did this because he tried to literally kill me! But I was walking just to my 5th period when a person running by slams into my. Ack pack and sends it to the left. Well I just happens to have the guy that thinks he can beat up everyone behind me and my backpack hits him. He pushes me forward and into another person. I turned around to tell him that it was an accident when he takes a swing all hard at my head! It hit me in the back of the skull and gave me a nasty bruise but I backhanded his nose then punched his penis, but I only did it because he practically gave me a concussion and my head felt strange after that. Well my reall problem is that when I just walked away after I did that ( which now that I think of hitting him back was not the best thing to do) I heard one of the stupid football players laughing at me and I heard him say " he's as weak as **** hunh while the other guy was bent over with a bloody nose, and looking at me like he's just going to shoot me on Monday. And I'm not afraid of him, the reall problem is that the other stupid football player is in my 1st period and I have to walk by his desk to get to mine and he'll make fun of me until the end of the quarter we just started. So I want to know how to get this guy to step off and to stop *****ing me?

O you and when ever I turn to my left on my head when I'm laying down my head starts hurting?

First off get your head looked at, tell your parents.

It was an accident that turned nasty, fighting is never good, knowing how to defend yourself properly is better, get some self defense classes under your belt, learn how to avoid an impact.

Also, taking up a marshall arts class may not be a bad idea, you'll learn a whole lot more then you bargained for,you'll make some new friends, get really fit and strong, plus once you become a master no one will want to have a go.

As for the jock you have to pass, ignore it, let the teacher sort him out.

On a side note, school does not last forever, there's a great big beautiful world out there.

To end, make sure you get that head looked at!

Ya thanks for the advise. And I have been taking martial arts classes, I just started so I don't know that much. But I will get my head looked at.

I would say that telling your parents is a pretty good idea or at least a teacher. But if you don't just don't let the situation get any bigger than it is already. Good luck. :)

Thanks for your guys advice I really appreciate them.

Walk right by that guy and give him an evil glare... if it leads to another fight then so be it... even if it happens right in the middle of the class... and if it does then at least try tom make it seam like he started it and then if the teacher sends you guys to the principal or something then tell them the whole thing!

You can and should defend yourself, And yes it takes several years of marital arts to be really good at defense and many schools are worthless at real fighting, just teaching forms that look pretty but have little practical purpose.

Instead of hitting him in the groin, a knee there does much better followed up with another head punch. If you are attacked by a bully, you need to finish it and finish it in a big way so they know they will never do it to you again ( along with letting other bullies know it is not going to work)

Also while I know not fighting is better, at times the bully gives you no choice and I would much rather walk away and deal with issues, than not be able to walk away.

Next many will not like this, but what we teach is, if the bully is a lot bigger and stronger, or if there are two bullies, and you know it is going to happen, hit first, yep, take the biggest or head bully out first fast.

One of the early moves a martial art school should be teaching you is a round house kick, and/or a snap kick. Do this to their Knee and they will not be able to chase you anyway.

** not the advice most expected of me here I am sure, but in real life you can not in most cases just ignore a bully, esp if they are proven to use violence.

[spunkymonkey213]

You, they have taught us a roundhouse kick but I still suck at it :P and he just shut up about it and hase not said anything since then.

And cloudyschi, I don't think that will lead to resolution of my problems by just blaming it on 'he started it!" I am in 9th grade and think that just not engaging him will be most efective and productive.
