Today, I noticed a rather small man being harassed by a rather large man, so I tried to help out and break it up. The small guy punched me in the face and said, "Mind your business!" The large guy laughed and fist-bumped him. FML

Today, I saw a fight so I went over to try and break it up. Someone thought I wanted to join in, so he gave me an unexpected whap in the happy sacks, and I also got a bloody nose for my troubles. FML

Today, I was standing in line at a coffee shop and I noticed that there was a bug on the guys face in front of me. Trying to be nice I lightly smacked it off. His reaction was to punch me in the face. Repeatedly. FML

Today, I saw an old man struggling with three bags, so I offered to carry them for him. He must not have heard me because when I bent down to take the bags, he thought I was stealing them and punched me in the face. FML

Today, a man pulled me violently into an alleyway and informed me I was being mugged. Being a body-builder, I said, "Oh yeah? Go on then." He kicked my ass in a matter of seconds, stole my wallet, then farted on my bruised face. He called me a wimp. FML

Today, I saw a woman being mugged. I ran up to help and pushed the guy off of her. She then punched me in the face and called the cops because she was, "just living out a fantasy" and I'm, "a lunatic for trying to help." FML

Today, I was out for a walk, wearing a T-shirt with a fist on it and the words "Bump it." A guy came up to me, looked at my shirt, shrugged, and punched me in the stomach. FML

Today, my boyfriend, who is rather large, picked me up to give me a hug, and some over-eager security guard actually pointed his taser at him and told him to put me down. So he put me down and tried to ask what he'd done wrong. The bastard tased him for acting aggressively. FML

Fight Club

Today, while at a local bar, my friends and I were approached by an overly intoxicated man who asked us each politely if we wanted to fight. Thinking it was a joke, I said yes. It wasn't a joke, I now have a broken nose and a black eye. FML

Today, I was running down the hallway when a door opens and hits me right on the face. I'm sitting there with my nose bleeding and a huge bump forming on my head. The guy who comes out is hugely fat, tries to help me up, trips, and falls on me. I accidentally groped his moobs while trying to push him off. FML

I would've smacked him in the face and said "I thought you needed a Little help"

Punching someone is going too far, so it sucks that he did that to you, OP. I'd have to say you deserve this, though. Maybe it was an actual confrontation, or maybe the two of them were friends. Either way, no man wants to feel like people think he's too small to stick up for himself. It's a condescending feeling, like no one respects them because of their height. If someone is already sensitive about their size, the last thing they want is someone treating them like they're incapable. If the bigger guy had been physically trying to harm or restrain the other man, then sure it's okay to step in, but you shouldn't try to go to someone's rescue just because of their size.

But OP shouldn't ignore the situation either. Maybe the OP should've said "is everything ok?" and since everything was alright, he could've just walked away. The punch was uncalled for; hopefully something bad will happen to the stupid short person now (at least I hope it does)

Actually the OP should ignore the situation. It isn't any of his business. You don't get in the middle of two adult men in the midst of an argument unless you are willing to suffer the consequences. People should mind their own selves. If it were children in a bullying situation I could understand; but these are adults. It's none of OP's concern.

Why isn't it OP's concern to make sure that another person didn't potentially get hurt? OP made it their concern, there is nothing wrong with that.
