Today, my girlfriend asked me to hold her purse while shopping. All of a sudden, a robber punched me in the face and took her purse. She started crying about her purse and told me to get off the ground because I was embarrassing her. FML

Today, My girlfriend came from behind me and put her hand in my back pockets. I though it was someone trying to take my wallet, I elbowed her in the nose and broke it. FML

Today, I went to the movies. After it was over I got up and noticed a designer purse sitting on the ground in the back row. I opened it to look for anything that could give me a address so I could return it. The owner came back, assumed I was robbing her, and punched me in the nose. FML

Today, I spotted my girlfriend in a store. She didn't notice me, so I went behind her, put my hands over her eyes, and said "Guess who." I got an elbow to the groin and mace to the face. While I was rolling on the ground in pain, she simply said, "Serves you right" and walked away. FML

Today, while I was walking home from work, it started to rain. Clutching my bag in one hand, I started to run so I wouldn't get too wet. I saw a man running towards me and all of a sudden he tackled me to the ground. He thought I had stolen someone's handbag. FML

Today, I was trying to propose to my girlfriend when some scumbag snatched the ring and bolted. I chased him down, tackled him, and punched him until he gave the ring back. Now my girl is upset, crying, "What if he was hungry and needed to buy food? You didn't have to hurt him." FML

Today, I was walking home with my boyfriend, when a guy pulled a knife and told us to hand over our money. My boyfriend blurted "I don't have shit, dude! She has tons of cash!" The moment the mugger turned to me, my boyfriend ran away at top speed. FML

Today, after a church service, a man approached me as I was walking to my car. He had tears in his eyes and politely asked if I would pray with him. He asked if we could hold hands. As I reached out to hold his hands, the bitch snatched my purse and ran. FML

Only guy that ever hit me in a non joking manner (and several guys that weren't joking for that matter) got his ass kicked. I don't tolerate that shit. :D yay standards.

All of you with your "pussy, YDI" comments, stop acting tough on the internet. If someone punches you without you seeing it coming, it can easily cause you to lose balance and fall. It's also possible OP was doing something, bent over, or did anything else that could make it even easier to knock him down. OP, I think the first thing a partner (or even just a friend) should do after something like this, would be to check if you're OK, not be concerned of how embaressing it is. Either talk to her, or break up with her. I'd go with number 2, it seems like she doesn't care about you enough.

If someone really hits you hard when you aren't expecting it, you will be knocked flat on your ass. It'll still take you a few seconds to recover from the hit and get back up, by which time, the robber will be gone. This isn't a fight where the attacker is sticking around. Unless the robber was really freaking stupid, he would run away, probably before OP saw the guy's face.

Yea, if you get punched square in the face with sufficient force, you are going to be disoriented no matter how tough, strong, burly, or how high your pain tolerance is. The only exception I can think of would be someone who's conditioned to that specific scenario...maybe a martial artist or just someone who gets their ass beat a lot.
