So I was at this rave yesterday, I mostly got rejected by the girls there but strangely they called me handsome most of the time (like always which I kinda hate because it makes me feel like I’m really bad at seduction) throughout the night this pretty girl was flirting with me but in comes her douchebag ex that she admitted that he cheated on her multiple times (infront of him and me mind you) I admit that I found her attractive and wrapped my arms around her, to which he steps in and forcefully pushes me aside, warning me that he doesn’t play that shit and that in not allowed to touch her and that if I tried he’s ex military so he’ll kick my ass.

Thing is; even if he was ex military he’s an absolute DUMBASS! The reason I call him that is because I take martial arts and self defense classes and they teach us that one of the first things in self defense you must learning is threat discernment, I.e learn to analyze the situation before you do something stupid (like recognizing if the guy had a weapon) I had a knife in my pocket and my car was next to me (which has my gun) and he let me get to my car, I could have easily pulled my gun there and threatened him. But i didn’t… why? Because of one thing that paralyses me all the time, is the consequences from the law, even just fighting someone can get the police called on you, I’m paralyzed not by the action itself, but from the consequences of Johnny law. I think and panic to myself, “if I stab him will I go to jail for attempted murder?” If I shoot him will I go to jail for murder? Who will take my side? Etc.

However, I am SICK AND TIRED of this repeatedly happening, so many dudes have used force to push me aside and have threatened me to keep me from the women im talking to, and even though I’m the one with training, weapons and experience I’m STILL kinda pussying out because of my fear of the consequences from the law getting to me. My blood was BEYOND BOILING last night and I’m getting to a point with men that I’m not caring about legal consequences. I’m constantly telling myself “a fight ain’t worth it, women are not worth dying for just chillax” but I feel like a pushover because they get to keep the women and I don’t, especially when IM THE ONE with the most ability to kick their ass!

At what point does self defend and threat analysis turn into complete and total passiveness and being a pushover because I’m sick of other men getting their way without some consequences even when I’m the one who could easily kick their ass because of my training.

TLDR I’m tired of being pushed around because of my fear from the law, what do I do how do I handle this?!
