Just last Saturday, this man decided to grab drinks with a few friends he hadn’t seen in a while. They visited a few bars over the course of the evening, and by the end, they wound up at a small nightclub.

“The club wasn’t really busy,” he recalled.

Yet, after he headed up to the bar to grab a drink, he ultimately came face to face with another man’s fist.

That’s because, while ordering his beverage, he realized a woman was standing nearby, also waiting for a drink. He asked if she was already being served by the bartender, and she claimed that she was.

Then, the woman actually complimented one of the tattoos on his arm, saying she liked it. He thanked her and started a small conversation, asking whether she had any tattoos as well.

However, the woman’s boyfriend was apparently at the club, too, and didn’t like him talking to her. The boyfriend proceeded to walk right up to him and start fighting with him over it.

“I told the guy I only asked her a question and that he should drop it,” he said.

Well, that didn’t diffuse the situation, as the guy just punched him in the face and left a bruise on his cheek. The guy was subsequently kicked out of the nightclub right away, and his girlfriend was very apologetic.

Anyway, when he went home to his own girlfriend, she obviously noticed the bruise, and he filled her in on what happened. Rather than feeling any sympathy for him, though, she basically blamed him for getting punched.

His girlfriend began asking why he was even close to the woman at the club and speaking to her in the first place. And he clarified how they were literally just making small talk while waiting to get their drinks.

Nonetheless, his girlfriend thought he shouldn’t have opened his mouth to her at all, and that left him livid.

“I pointed out how she was blaming me for the guy assaulting me, which she denied,” he explained.

“But she just said again that I shouldn’t have spoken to the woman and wouldn’t have been punched if I didn’t talk to her.”

He couldn’t understand why his girlfriend was victim-blaming him for getting attacked since he genuinely believed he didn’t do anything wrong.

Despite that, his girlfriend thinks he should have never “had a go” at the woman in the club and got himself into this mess.

He can’t help but feel furious about that, either, and he’s not sure if his anger is justified or not.

Does it sound like he was trying to make a pass at the woman, or was their conversation innocent? Did he deserve to get punched?
