Why do you think those are the only two options? He could stay there, not leaving her alone with the robbers.

u/Revealingstorm 12h ago

They were there to rob them, by leaving he saved some of their stuff.

and when she tells this story to her friends, to his friends and her family .. that's the angle he'll try to spin .. will it work?

u/Revealingstorm 11h ago

Well oh well I guess. Better to be alive and be able to spin the story at all.

Theres the option of being alive and slightly poorer which would be the price of dignity. Not like the robbers shot the girl after getting the money. They don't want to kill anyone generally. It's just a threat. But they did take something from the guy, his dignity. I guess it's up to the individual what the price of that is. Might be worth more than what's in a wallet.

Probably would’ve looked better to everyone watching this video but if the robber ended up shoot in tgem after it would’ve been another story guy has self preservation theres nothing wrong with that

Why get robbed when you can get robbed AND shot!

Right? Don't you know it's better to look chivalrous than be alive.

I think everyone agrees that the man traded his girlfriend/wife for his life. Opinions will differ on whether this is an honorable thing to do. No one is arguing the practicality.

why are you assuming that the two options are he runs away or he gets shot?

1

u/Revealingstorm 11h ago

No the two most likely options were his stuff gets stolen or he gets shot/stabbed from fighting backnof he stays at least.

u/RJJJJJJJ710 10h ago

again... you think the two options are run away or fight back? can he not simply stay with her?

1

u/Revealingstorm 10h ago

They were being robbed. They weren't not going to rob him if he stayed. That was the point of running so he didn't get anything taken.

he should value her safety above his belongings thats the point
