this really sucks for me... i was getting a sandwich at subway and suddenly i look outside and this black kid and like 5 of his friends r just sitting there across the street and the have my bike. so im like "im gonna go beat his ass!" so i get over there and then suddenly everything in me just sais that i gotta give up and not do anything about it while im screaming across the street at this kid. i get over there and he keeps saying if i want my bike i gotta fight for it and........ i just walk away and let him keep it. i dont kno wat the fuck is wrong with me. and this shit happens to me ALL THE TIME. i wake up in the morning hating myself cause this shit happens all the time. im tired of being the one that always backs off during fights and stuff. i feel like a wimpy piece of shit all the time. is there anyway to change my mind set? i always feel like i could fight some one until its actually happening and i feel like its an instinct or something

r some people just born to b stepped on or can i change my situation?

Your conscience is getting in the way. There are times when this is good and times when this is bad. In this case it was good because if you fought this kid, chances are his friends would jump in and you'd be in a world of hurt. Did you ever get your bike back?

You can change yourself.

You need a good dose of self-confidence. Read my links and Njord's links.

The moral of this story is not "Picking your fights smartly", but rather, "LOCK YOUR FUCKING BIKE UP"

Well what the fuck were you expecting, get more/better locks next time.

Groups of risky people will take advantage of lone idiot sheeps.

If you don't have the courage to get your bike back then I suggest for the future that you get a Kryptonite bike lock. They sell them at most sports stores. There is no way in hell they are breaking those without professional gear.

Next time you get a bike, booby-trap it with explosives. They'll never try to steal it again... Assuming they survive.

I had this problem, about not fighting when i should have. However, the outcome wasn't as bad as getting my bike stolen..It was just when I was getting it back.. >.>

Short Story:
I got a bike for christmas, and didn't live in the best [worst] part of town. 2 weeks later, my bike is stolen. Just so happens, the kid who stole my bike had one identical to mine, and his was stolen as well. Of course he thought I did it. Now, I wasn't the hardcore kick-ass Deity I am now, because I was 10. However, I did steal the bike bad, and Mama-Njord told the kid (and his friends) that she would blow his fucking head off if he tried it again. (I luv mama)

However, Mama-Njord didn't acome outside with Njord to play, and my sister and I rode our bikes around the neighborhood. Unfortunately, we turned on the wrong street, right into the kid and his mini-gang. I told my sis to turn and go back, as one kid knocks me off with a broom-handle, but unfortunately, she keeps coming like a dunce. One guy comes and pushes her off her bike, and then takes it. Now Njord was a pussy, but Njord wasn't a bitch. I kicked the guy who was trying to hit me with the broom-handle again, and took it from him. I run up and threaten the kid who pushed my sister, before telling her to grab her bike and run.

Now here is where I failed. I should've beat the royal hell out of all of them, since i was armed and they weren't. However, Njord is Vanir, and war is not quite our way. So I am content with leaving them there, no ass beating in sight. Years from then, I was still carrying the label of a pussy. Kids would come up and challenge me all the time for simple shit like my computer time at the library, my food/drinks, one time even my girlfriend. Of course, this made Njord this man he is today, but I still regret not beating their ass when I had the chance. However, I can say that the outcome wasn't so bad.

No advice by the way.
