The only thing you could have done better was warning that bitch with a loud voice so everyone could hear that she instigated first. Other than that she was totally deserve it.

If I were your brother, I'd give you a head pat for standing up for yourself. Violence may not be often the correct answer but it's always an option.

As a general rule in life, it would be good to take the in-between step of talking to someone who can make that person stop before escalating to violence.

That being said, I’ve gone through high school and I know teachers may well not do anything to stop it.

In my experience staff or students stood up for me, and people only stopped fucking with me after I hurt someone badly enough. Since there was a clear paperwork trail of me complaining about that individual’s actions, I didn’t get any real punishment since it was clear the people responsible for stopping the escalation had failed in their duties.

Meh, play stupid games win stupid prizes. Good lesson for both of you. You definitely could have handled it better, but honestly I think it's pretty cool you didn't put up with her BS. I was bullied a lot in school, and some bullies just don't understand any other message.

Insane that you're being downvoted. Escalation to violence is an appropriate response to some things, but being annoying is definitely not one of them. It might be some people's first instinct but those people need to repress that urge and learn to either use their words, ignore it, or remove themselves from that situation.

Yeah that's on you. Maybe think before you talk but that's rare now. I think back to fight club and she nailed it perfectly. "When people think you're dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just waiting for thier turn to talk" you just wanted to talk. You want to be involved in everything bc you are hollow and have nothing in your life. Shame on you but I doubt you feel shame.
