Well, I've never been in a fight, but almost got in one today.
This guy, a foot taller and about 100 pounds heavier stepped on my foot at the taxi stand (accidentally I think) but didn't apologise or say anything. He acted like nothing happened. No remorse look, no apology, nothing. It didn't hurt much, but it was a significant foot step, not a slight one, it was his entire foot on my foot, a kind of step that I felt warranted an apology.
Me: You should apologise
Him: It was an accident (angry look)
Me: Still
Him: Got a problem?
Me: No, just expecting a bit of courtesy
Him: Oh yeah
Me: Yeah
Him: Wanna fight?
Me: Not really
Him: Then shut up
Me: Fuck you
Him: Wanna go
Me: Fine lets do it
Him: Ehh whatever
Then he just looks in front and we don't speak and the taxi comes and he goes.
2 questions...
1) I was pissed and ready to go but I couldn't help but have this SCARED SHITLESS feeling inside of me. My heart was beating like crazy. I think if it happened I'd have let it happen and would've fought, but is the feeling of fear normal?
2) Also, how does a fight work? How do you know a fight is on, and how do you know when it's over?
