Shaking hands with an enemy

[Zatara]

If someone you've had an argument with then comes over to your place in the evening with 3 of his mates (who clearly want to threaten you)...

What does it say to them if you walk straight up to the ringleader (not the guy youve had a row with) and shake his hand...

Then after he threatens you, you say;

"Well, nice to meet you" and offer to shake his hand again as hes about to walk off?

How does it make you look to the group?

Unconcerned. Shows you're in control of yourself to still show manners/convention.

 

[chrismpw]

Actually it depends.
If you try it, and they accept, and seconds later you're on your knees in a puddle of your own urine, tears in your eyes, screaming for mercy looking at the crushed bones of your hand, then it could look as though you've failed some sort of alpha dominance opportunity.

Not opening the door and pouring boiling oil from an upstairs window is the manly thing to do.

Go to shake their hand, but then give them "the finger" with both hands + this face:

Frankly I am shocked that anyone would want to fight you after speaking with you!!!

...some folk must wake up and think "what can I open a thread about today".

[jaycee]

Rather than a handshake,handjobs all round would have had you climbing over mountains of valentine cards next year x

Haha thanks...

Actually had an issue with a Chinese guy who bumped into me at a crossing to which i told him to mind where he was going...he then punched me in the heart...cue me calling security over and us having a slanging match.

He then turns up at my condo with his British husband and 2 bodyguards a few hours later.

I just went over and shook the British guys hand and listened to his direct accusations and threats...then offered my hand again at the end of it to which he chose to shout vulgarities at me.

Pleasant fellow, from Manchester apparently (he stressed) lol
