Interfering in fights

[SincerelyMe]

I was with a group of people and one of the couples who was with us started fighting. The rest of us stayed nearby, but eventually, we wandered away a bit and out of sight (but not far). We heard both of them screaming, and figured things were getting pretty heated. One of my friends wanted to go over and interfere. She, and another person we were with, went to go see what was going on, and eventually broke up the fight. I waited away from it.

In the past, outside interference has always made fights worse for me. It just makes everyone angrier.

My question is, do you think it is the right decision to break up a heated fight between a couple, or let them work it out on their own?

A fight or an argument? If its just a really heated argument, i'd leave them to work it out on their own.

It was a mix of both. He was pushing her around and she was hitting him (defending herself, but a little more than she needed to). We heard her screaming and that's when my friend decided to go over.

If they are just arguing, obviously leave them alone. Maybe if it two friends arguing, try to step in if it goes on a long time but it a couple is fighting, it surely has nothing to do with you.

Now, if they are hitting each other, yeah someone should probably step in.

Hmm, yeah, i think it was probably best then. The argument itself is only really their business, so i wouldn't get involved personally, but if it escalates and their is a chance that someone may get hurt then it makes sense to step in.

tell them to cool it or you're going to leave

if its between a couple and theres no physical shit going on, then stay the fuck out of it. its none of your business. the only time i would get in the way of couples tiff is if it got physical

I would let them work it out, because if they can't do it on their own, then they shouldn't be together.

I said almost the exact same thing to the girl who wanted to go over to them. But it didn't work.

I often toss a bottle at their feet to make things more interesting.

Glad to be of service.

[lfdfforever]

i broke up a fight and some cool duder wanted to fight me for that service.

[thespearkid]

make bets.

[denissuxx]

Arguement: Leave it 90% of the time.

Fights:
If it was two men, I'd always leave it.
If it was two women, I'd make bets (then interfere when/if I start losing the bet)
If it was a men attacking a women, I'd always step in.
If a friend was involved, I'd try and do something to help them.

[Knightmare]

make bets.
:rotfl:

[Heart-A-Tact]

Two enter, and one must die.

[Animalhill]

Don't break up a fight unless it isn't fair in the first place.

[brentkid]

The second things become physical at all then someone should step in.

fighting after you get drunk feels so liberating.
