The main character in Fight Club is completely schizophrenic. The movie is about a mental patient....a total nut job. So much for that.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
How to avoid a potential bar/club fight

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I'd add that not being alone helps, and having a bigger guy or two with you helps a lot. I would guess that having just one decent-sized guy with you cuts the risk of someone swinging at you by 90%. Nobody wants to fight two people, and bar room bullies will always want an easy fight.
Another way to avoid a fight is to train mma and actually learn how to fight. Then you see how stupid bar fighting is. Trained fighters just destroy untrained drunks. It's not even a challenge. If you want to fight, then train and get into the cage. They have Fight Clubs everywhere now; mma is the fastest-growing sport in the country.

Thats just a warm up for me, try getting in a real fight. One kick to the groin and a punch to the face is just going to motivate your opponent to mash you into the concrete unless he hasn't ever been in a fight either. And yes I'm speaking from experience, in kickboxing I we used to kick each other in the nuts accidentally while going for inside leg kicks, and the fight doesn't magically stop. You just fight through it.HandyAndy said:

Number on erule of self defens is to be aware of your environment. Read body language, And pay attention to how you feel.
Avoid any possibility of confrontation.
Look at fighting as a last resort to escape the situation, and to protect loved ones who need your protection.
And also stop thinking in terms of the word 'fighting'. It is self protection, not an exchange of strikes or whatever, like an mma cage fight
It's you you you, end it quickly and get out of there.
Avoid the temptation to let your ego and pride to get the best of you.
Do not fight for your ego or pride.
Make sure your emotions do not get in the way.
And always practice de escalation at the first sign.
Do so assertively, not cowardly.
Sometimes de escalation can actually provoke the fight and actually escalate it.
And assertiveness that boarders on arrogance can also mess with the other person's ego and pride and escalate the situation as well.
This has to be well calibrated.
You must not crack under pressure.

I won't start a bar fight... But, I'm not against ending one.

A punch to the face in the mandible, and unless you are Ken Shamrock, your ass is going down. If you are that bad, I'd suggest you main event the next PRIDE PPV.The Inside Man said:
